Overview

What is a Charge Air Cooler?

A Charge Air Cooler (CAC) is a component in turbocharged and supercharged engines that cools the compressed air before it enters the engine's intake manifold.

What does it do for a vehicle?

A Charge Air Cooler improves the efficiency of the engine by cooling the compressed air from the turbocharger or supercharger, increasing air density, and allowing more oxygen to enter the combustion chamber. This results in better combustion, more power, and improved fuel efficiency.

Why is this part important for the vehicle's proper operation?

A Charge Air Cooler enhances engine performance, improves fuel efficiency, reduces emissions, and protects the engine from thermal stress and knocking.

Why the right quality matters?

High-quality Charge Air Coolers ensure durability, optimal cooling efficiency, compliance with emission regulations, and lower maintenance costs.

REACH HD Charge Air Cooler Design and Improvements

Deep Extrusion Header

Our deep extrusion header provides a stronger tube to header joint which is more resistant to the effects of vibration and thermal tube expansion

Header Plate Bond

We use a wider angle header plate bond to eliminate the risk of header cracking

Flat Tube Wall Thickness

Flat tube wall thickness is no less than .55mm to maximize ability to withstand added pressure

Charge Air Cooler Test Kit

 

REACH Cooling Group is introducing a new charge air cooler test kit, for technicians to efficiently assess vehicle intercooling systems for optimum fuel efficiency and horsepower.

About 40% of trucks two years or older have charge air coolers experiencing leaks; these leaks can decrease horsepower and fuel efficiency.

Technicians can run a diagnostic test without removing the entire charge air cooler unit from the vehicle, and they can get the diagnosis within minutes.
