General Information &
Specifications
The Compressed Air Cooler from Condux International cools compressed air from a
maximum temperature of 250°F (121°C), to within 5°F (3°C) of the ambient
temperature (Figure 1). The compressed air cooler is intended for use with the
Condux Fiber Optic Cable Blower to help prevent heat damage to the fiber optic
cable during installation (Figure 2).
A. SPECIFICATIONS

2. Maximum ambient operating temperature: 140°F (60°C).
3. Minimum inlet operating temperature: 41°F (5°C).
4. Maximum inlet operating temperature: 250°F (121°C).
5. Maximum operating pressure: 135 psi (9.3 bar).
6. Always use in a well lit area with a light intensity of at least 200 lux.
7. Machine weight: 136 lbs (61.7 kg).
8. Maximum noise reading: 90.7 dbA.

the maximum operating pressure of the air cooler.
Set-up and Operation
A. PLACE AIR COOLER
Place air cooler on flat and level surfaces on a slope less than 10 degrees, which are
free of heavy dust and debris to avoid flying debris emitted from the cooling fan.
Never place the air cooler below gantries, power lines or walkways where there might
be a risk of falling objects.
B. NEVER STEP ON AIR COOLER
The air cooler must not be used as a step and hoses which are connected to the
cooler must not be located where personnel will be at a risk of tripping over them.
