Intercooler Thermostats
Intercooler thermostats are specialized thermostats used to precisely regulate the temperature of the intercooler circuit in internal combustion engines. Compared to main engine thermostats, they are designed to operate at lower temperature ranges (20°C–35°C).
These thermostats operate with a thermostatically controlled mixing valve architecture featuring two inlets and one outlet. This configuration allows fluids at different temperatures to be mixed in a controlled manner, ensuring that the outlet temperature is continuously maintained within a defined range. As a result, thermal balance in the intercooler circuit is preserved and optimal engine performance can be sustained.
Intercooler thermostats directly contribute to performance, combustion efficiency, and emission control in turbocharged engines by increasing the density of the intake air.
Featuring high sensitivity at low operating temperatures, a compact architecture, and rapid response capability, intercooler thermostats improve thermal efficiency in turbocharged engines, ensure stable system operation, and contribute to increased engine durability.
