Air Compressor Line Cooler

Removing the liquid requires a moisture separator and a drain valve.

Air compressor line cooler.

Cooling condenses lots of water. Aftercoolers reduce the amount of water vapor in a compressed air system by condensing the water vapor into liquid form. They use either air or water and are an effective means of removing moisture from compressed air. Aftercoolers are heat exchangers for cooling the discharge from a air compressor.

If the temperature at the discharge port exceeds 300 degrees fahrenheit the refrigerant oil and adjacent mechanisms. The compressed air travels through either the spiral finned tube coil or a plate fin coil design of the aftercooler while ambient air is forced over the cooler by a motor driven fan. Low cost air dryer water separator. Make no mistake a cooler alone does not yield high quality compressed air.

The compressed air enters the air cooled aftercooler. 5 hp quiet air compressor 1ph 2 stage 80 gallon vertical emax yellow industrial series model es05v080i1 by emax compressor 5 0 out of 5 stars 5 2 499 00 2 499.

Air cooled aftercoolers use ambient air to cool the hot compressed air.
