Clements Radiator is a distributor of DURA LITE
charge air coolers with the patented "ULTIMATE SOLUTION"
silicone grommet system.
This system provides a leak free charge air cooler unlike most OE charge air coolers. It allows free uninhibited, thermally induced core expansion and vibration absorbtion, thus eliminating the two greatest causes of premature failure in charge air coolers. Some common problems associated with non-performing charge air coolers include: |
|
|
|
Not enough boost density for complete combustion. |
|
|
|
Incomplete combustion results in unburned fuel being exausted instead of being used for powering the engine. |
|
|
|
Unburned fuel is igniting in the exhaust manifold and elevating the exhaust temperatures. |
|
|
|
Lack of boost density prevents sufficient cooling of the cylinder walls during the intake stroke. |
|
|
|
Insuffient cooling of cylinder walls results in elevated block temperatures and additional heat being added to the coolant. |
|
|
|
Insufficient back pressure due to charge air cooler leaks result in the turbo spinning at much higher revolutions than originally designed for. |
|
|
The basic purpose of a charge air cooler is to provide cool dense air
(boost) to the engine. The maximum allowable intake manifold
temperature and pressure loss is specified by the engine companies to
insure that the required boost temperature and density are
maintained. Pressure losses have a greater impact on boost density
than temperature which means a leaking charge air cooler would
have the greatest impact on performance and ultimately the life
of the engine.
