What is an aftercooler in compressed air systems?

An aftercooler cools compressed air immediately after the compressor, removing heat and condensing moisture before it enters the air distribution system.

What types of aftercoolers are available?

SANPAR offers both air-cooled and water-cooled aftercoolers to suit different installation requirements and cooling water availability.

Why is aftercooling important?

Aftercooling removes up to 70% of moisture from compressed air and protects downstream equipment from heat damage.

Overview

Compressed air from compressors is hot with large quantities of water vapour. If not removed, it condenses in distribution causing expensive damage to equipment and processes.

Without an aftercooler, a 200 SCFM compressor at 7 bar introduces 170-240 litres of water daily. SANPAR water-cooled aftercoolers are custom made with complete design flexibility.
