HCU Series for LP Gas Transport Applications

The AKG Cool-Line HCU Series is engineered for hydraulic systems in LP gas transport, delivering high-performance offline cooling in hazardous and demanding 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 LP gas transport applications, ensuring fluid integrity 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 LP gas transport operations. With heat rejection up to 18 HP at 80°F ETD, it minimizes noise and vibration while meeting stringent safety standards.

Designed 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 LP gas transport.

In LP gas transport, maintaining hydraulic performance and safety is critical. The HCU Series delivers advanced cooling to ensure reliability and compliance in hazardous environments.

Offline Cooling: Independent cooling for high-heat LP gas transport systems.

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

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

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

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

Rugged Design: Field-tested for LP gas transport equipment in harsh conditions.
