AKS Superfin - Evolution in the Creation

Better by Design

Bulleting ProcessThe range of cooling tube nests is the result of many years' research and development taking into consideration thermal design, emission output levels, material specification, construction, design capabilities and cost analysis to bring what we believe to be a superior charge air cooler.

To meet thermal duty's in the hostile working environments imposed on diesel engine charge air coolers, advanced unique features to AKS have been developed with special tube pattern configurations that reduce airside pressure drops, maintain air turbulence via our unique anti-fowling turbulator's that promotes superior heat transfer capabilities.

A range of charge air coolers has been designed specifically with large marine slow and medium rpm diesel engines in mind with variable surface area accumulations per unit length available. The Microfin 10 block construction is ideally suited to fast rpm marine diesel engines giving high density blocks with high performance characteristics.

In choosing AKS for your replacement charge air coolers you can rest assured that you have selected a product of the highest calibre from the world's leading manufacturer.

With 10 years in service the managers of the Norasia class of container vessels found that the Mitsubishi 7UEC85LSC main engine charge air coolers needed to be replaced, After careful consideration an order was given to AKS Heat Transfer Services International Marine Division to supply and supervise the installation of the first unit on board the vessel.

 

The replacement unit was manufactured and along with an experienced supervisor transported to Malta where the air cooler was installed in the port whilst the vessel was unloading. The vessel turn round was only 24 hours and the project was successfully completed with time to spare.

 

Due to the success and smooth operation organised by AKS further units have been ordered and installed for 3 sister vessels.

 

Below is a picture gallery of the installation of the air cooler insitu.
