Fig. 3.36: Heat exchanger BOGE-DUOTHERM
The oil removes approx 85% of compression heat from screw compressors with oil injected cooling. When using a heat exchanger the heat can be extracted from the air and used for utility or water heating.

The water in the backflow passing through the heat exchanger is heated to +70° C. The quantity of water heated depends on the temperature difference.
