AOL, Air Blast Oil Coolers
Air Coolers for Hydraulic Oil with Integrated Circulation Pump
Heat is generated in any hydraulic system due to friction losses in piping and valves and heat losses in motors, pumps and air compression . Effective heat removal is therefore critically important and a determining lifespan factor. Frigotherm oil coolers are a well-proven and economic method of removing heat from oil. Our oil coolers represent the result of many years’ experience and development.
The AOL consists of a finned radiator core within a housing, a fan motor duct and a plenum chamber to ensure even distribution of a forced cooling air draft around the fins. The AOL is well suited for oil cooling applications such as transformer oil, hydraulic circulation oil cooling, lubrication systems and screw compressors where cooling water is not readily available or undesirable.
Advantages of air-cooling:
- Reduced running costs against water
- No danger of cross-contamination
- No secondary coolers required (cooling tower)
- Very low maintenance and installation cost
- High lifespan
Design features:
- Cooler core easily removable for cleaning of fins
- Impeller/motor arrangement are housed and protected inside a ducting
- Cooler core all steel welded construction and hot dip galvanised
- Very high fatigue strength and pressure resistance
- Metallic bond between tubes and fins assures excellent heat transfer and rigidity of fins
- High quality standards
In applications for high viscosity oils additional turbulators are inserted internally to ensure optimal heat transfer.
