1. Product Overview

The Samsung TM900 Intercooler is a core thermal management module built for industrial air compressor system setups, featuring hybrid air-water cooling technology. This system setup efficiently cools high-temperature compressed gas (≤180°C inlet) to process-required temperatures (2-10°C pressure dew point) while keep lubricant oil temperatures below 80°C. Its modular design supports compatibility with oil-flooded screw and oil-free centrifugal compressors across 0.4-1.0MPa pressure ranges.

Technical Architecture

Dual-Medium Circulation system setup:

• Air Cooling Module: Cross-flow finned tube array with axial fans provide 2,500m³/h airflow, operational in -20°C to +50°C environments
• Water Cooling Module: Dual-pass shell-and-tube thermal exchanger with 37m³/h water flow, featuring copper tubes (1.2mm wall) and 316L stainless steel end caps for 40% better corrosion resistance

Smart Control system setup:

• ±0.5°C accuracy temperature sensors monitor coolant differentials, triggering variable fan speed (20-60Hz) when ΔT exceeds 15°C
• Pressure sensors activate alarms when water flow drops below 80% design value, preventing overall efficiency loss
