CIR8000P MAHLE Low Temperature Cooler, charge air cooler

MAHLE's CIR8000P Low-Temperature Radiator is specifically utilized in turbocharger applications within the engine parts category. It measures 130.0 x 640.0 x 960.0 mm in size, originating from the Czech Republic. Dimensions are provided by the supplier and may include packaging dimensions. Intercoolers are heat exchangers positioned between a turbocharger or supercharger and the intake manifold. Their primary function is to reduce the temperature of the compressed air, increasing its density and improving engine volumetric efficiency. Construction typically utilizes a core with fin and tube or bar and plate designs, fabricated from aluminum alloys for thermal conductivity and weight reduction. Intercoolers employ both air-to-air and air-to-liquid (water-cooled) designs, each with varying pressure drop and cooling capacity characteristics. Performance is rated by pressure drop, fin density, and thermal efficiency, influencing boost pressure and engine output. End tanks are typically cast aluminum or plastic and are designed for specific hose and mounting configurations.
