Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0889236A2] An air compressor and aftercooler combination in which the aftercooler is located in front of the air compressor. The aftercooler is connected to the air compressor for receiving hot, high pressure air and for effectively cooling the same such that the temperature of the high pressure air delivered by the aftercooler approaches that of atmospheric ambient. A fan is located to draw and direct atmospheric ambient air to the compressor and to and through aftercooler for effective cooling of the high pressure air in the aftercooler, as received from the compressor. <IMAGE>
