Aftercooler Core - Clean/Test

1. Remove the core. Refer to the OEM information
for the correct procedure.
Personal injury can result from air pressure.
Personal injury can result without following prop-
er procedure. When using pressure air, wear a pro-
tective face shield and protective clothing.
Maximum air pressure at the nozzle must be less
than 205 kPa (30 psi) for cleaning purposes.

2. Pressurized air is the preferred method for
removing loose debris. Direct the air in the
opposite direction of the fan's air flow. Hold the
nozzle approximately 6 mm (.25 inch) away from
the fins. Slowly move the air nozzle in a direction
that is parallel with the tubes. This will remove
debris that is between the tubes.
3. Pressurized water may also be used for cleaning.
The maximum water pressure for cleaning
purposes must be less than 275 kPa (40 psi). Use
pressurized water in order to soften mud. Clean
the core from both sides.
Do not use a high concentration of caustic cleaner to
clean the core. A high concentration of caustic cleaner
can attack the internal metals of the core and cause
leakage. Only use the recommended concentration of
cleaner.
4. Back flush the core with a suitable cleaner.
5. Steam clean the core in order to remove any
g01242298
residue. Flush the fins of the aftercooler core.
Remove any other trapped debris.
6. Wash the core with hot, soapy water. Rinse the
core thoroughly with clean water.
