Intercoolers (Charge Air Coolers) are designed to reduce the fuel consumption while increasing the engine power and efficiency. The turbocharger increases the power and torque but also increases the compressed air temperature sent to the engine. The intercooler's task is to reduce the temperature of the inlet gas and thus densify the air required which optimizes the combustion. The intercooler lowers the temperature of the inlet gas from 130° C to 60° C, removes the negative effects of the turbo and increases the power by around 20%.
With its OE expertise in Thermal Systems, Valeo offers an aftermarket intercooler range benefiting from strong experience:
Specially designed folded tubes and turbulators, to ensure the optimum performance
High resistance plastic for structural integrity
Specific aluminium alloys developed to resist internal corrosion and extreme operational conditions
Gripping area for high pressure and hose connection, to ensure connection between the intercooler and high pressure hoses (23-28mm)
Flexible side plates, to allow the intercooler to expand its core under temperature changes
Reinforced ribs, to resist high working pressure
Tested by Valeo for mechanical and corrosion resistance (Thermal shocks, vibrations or durability)
