AquaVent AVF Air-Cooled Heat Exchanger

Forced-draft, air-cooled heat exchanger for high-temperature fluids

The AquaVent AVF is a reliable, low-maintenance, air-cooled heat exchanger. The AVF provides forced-draft cooling for closed-loop processes with a fluid temperature above 140°F. 

Operation

Inside the AVF, warm process fluid passes through a finned tube bundle. Fans mounted below the AVF push cool ambient air through the heat exchanger to cool the liquid, cycling on and off to maintain the desired fluid temperature.

Maintenance

The tube bundle must be protected from freeze damage. Dry Coolers can recommend a glycol–water mixture appropriate to your installed location.
