HCU Series for Chemical & Food Transport Applications

The AKG Cool-Line HCU Series is designed for hydraulic systems in chemical and food transport, delivering high-performance offline cooling in sensitive and harsh conditions. As a global leader in aluminum cooling systems, AKG provides German-engineered reliability with patented hydronucleation technology for de-aeration. This compact unit is optimized for chemical and food transport applications, ensuring fluid purity and system efficiency at competitive pricing through our exclusive distribution network.

The HCU Series features a DC or hydraulic-motor-driven fan, non-louvered low-fouling fins, and robust construction for optimal heat rejection in transport operations. With heat rejection up to 18 HP at 80°F ETD, it minimizes noise and vibration while meeting stringent hygiene and safety standards.

Built for flexibility and easy installation, the HCU Series includes optimized plumbing to reduce leak points, dual internal bypasses, and vibration testing to military standards (MIL-STD 810). Constructed with stainless steel and aluminum with premium coating, it includes a sight level glass and a 10-micron filter (200-micron option available) to maintain fluid cleanliness critical for chemical and food transport.

In chemical and food transport, maintaining hydraulic performance and fluid integrity is essential. The HCU Series delivers advanced cooling to ensure reliability and compliance with industry standards.

Offline Cooling: Independent cooling for high-heat chemical and food transport systems.

De-Aeration: Patented technology removes air from hydraulic fluid, preventing cavitation and oxidation.

Noise Reduction: 3M adhered foam reduces operational noise in sensitive transport environments.

Energy Efficiency: Efficient fan drives and heat rejection optimize power usage.

Filtration: Integrated filter with bypass ensures clean fluid circulation for hygiene compliance.

Rugged Design: Field-tested for chemical and food transport equipment in harsh conditions.
