Everything you want in a

API Basco�s Type ES Extended Surface
Plate Fin Heat Exchanger is the industry
leader for intercooler and aftercooler
performance. It�s unique, patented,
compact plate fin design gives you
distinct advantages for centrifugal, axial
or reciprocal compressor intercooler and
aftercooler applications.
Type ES heat exchangers have more
of the features you want for your
applications, in an innovative design
that results in:
· Less Space Compact package delivers maximum
heat transfer with minimum space
requirements.
· Less piping Cooler design is readily adaptable
to existing compressor systems.
· Less Energy Consumption Cools large volume of air/gas at
low pressure drop for lower
energy costs.
· Less Coolant We also offer coolers that use two
different coolant flows to
minimize cooling water usage.
· Less Maintenance Tubes are easily accessible for
inspection and cleaning.

· Optimum nozzle location Gas inlet and outlet can be located almost anywhere along the shell surface. This feature simplifies piping system design because the ES is readily adaptable to existing requirements.
· Easy bundle accessibility With the ES design, simply remove both the supply and the reversing bonnets for complete accessibility to the tube sheets for tube side cleaning. Other intercooler designs require complete removal of the bundle for similar operations.
· Vibration free design Tubes are continuously supported over their entire length by plate fins, thus tube vibration is impossible.
· Optimized air velocity The patented ES design easily accomodates standard compressor inlet and outlet line velocities. Un- like alternative designs, the ES requires no expensive piping enlargements to reduce line velocities for proper air distribution.
· Integrated internal moisture separation The need for an external separator is eliminated through the use of internal agglomerator plates and precisely directed air flow. An optional internal mesh separator can be provided to further enhance moisture separation.
· Rugged construction API Basco�s built-to-be-tough equipment minimizes downtime. ES intercoolers and aftercoolers have a proven track record of durable, problem-free performances.
· Absolute hot/cold compartment separation Continuous silicone rubber seals at the top and bottom of the tube bundle prevent any mixing of inlet and outlet gas.
· Compact design Type ES heat exchangers maximize the heat transfer surface per unit volume of space.
With the Basco® Type ES, minimizedpressure drop significantly reducesthe overall horsepower requirementsof the compressor. In many casespressure drop values of ½ psi orlower are realized. Generous flowareas, once-through-the-bundlecooling, and the absence of bafflespermit large volumes of gas to becooled in a compact space.
Unique approach temperaturecharacteristics permit a relativelylarge rise in cooling water outlettemperature. Unlike conventionalmulti-pass shell and tube coolers,ES outlet water temperatures arenot limited to the outlet gastemperature.
Example�Consider 100,000 lbs/hr of dry airbeing cooled from 300ºF to 100ºF, aheat load of 4,840,000 BTU/hr anda coolant temperature of 85ºF.
····· With a conventional multi-pass shell and tube heat exchanger, the outlet temperature of the coolant can not be greater than 99.9ºF. This translates to about 645 GPM which requires a 6" line. (Fig. 1)
····· With an API Basco® Type ES cooler, the coolant temperature rise can be 20-25 degrees and higher. With a typical rise of 25ºF, the amount of coolant required is reduced to 390 GPM which requires a 4" line. This lower coolant requirement translates to lower pumping costs and less expensive piping. (Fig. 2)

More options give you more application flexibility
No other intercooler or aftercoolerdesign offers such ready adaptabilityto your existing compressor systemsas the Basso Type ES.
· Flexible flow arrangementFour configurations of water andair connection combinations areavailable permitting optimumpositioning of ES equipment andreduced system engineering.
· Optimized fin-spacingVariations in finspacing (8 to 20 fins-per-inch) optimizethermal performanceagainst pressure loss.

Unique flow arrangement provides advantages
Hot gas is distributed throughout anabsolutely discrete inlet compartment alongthe entire length of the plate fin tubebundle. Note the absence of baffles whichcan inhibit gas flow. The gas passesthrough the bundle only once to the cold
compartment and exits to thesubsequent compressor stage.Dramatic changes in gas flow directionand strict velocity controls facilitateinternal moisture separation.
