CuproBraze Heat Exchangers for Locomotives Resist Elevated Temperatures, Fatigue and Corrosive Elements
CuproBraze Heat Exchangers for Locomotives Resist Elevated Temperatures, Fatigue and Corrosive Elements
Resistance to Exhaust Gases Bodes Well for EGR Applications
The high thermal conductivity of copper fins is essential to the high heat-transfer efficiency of CuproBraze air-to-air coolers (ATACs), or charge-air coolers (CACs). Yet there are other physical properties that bode well for CuproBraze alloys and coatings in these applications. Foremost are three interdependent attributes that could be dubbed “the three resistances” of CuproBraze: 1) Resistance to elevated temperatures and pressures; 2) Resistance to fatigue; and 3) Resistance to corrosion.

Testimonials
The advantages of CuproBraze over other heat exchanger technologies were clearly evident from the beginning.
Jorge Warnholtz Plant ManagerClimex WorldCuproBraze is the technology of choice for future generations of heat exchangers.
Jan AnderssonProject LeaderRabe ConsultingWe have successfully tested cooling systems with our customers and are now experiencing the initial waves of demand for CuproBraze.
Mike SprengerDirector of Sales & Marketing, Young Touchstone. ER 55The more familiar we become with brazed copper-brass, the more we like it.
Jack ChisenhallPresidentVintage AirAs a brazing process, CuproBraze can make heat exchangers that are inherently more durable than soldered copper-brass and also superior to aluminum products.
Randolph SinghChairman and Managing DirectorGS RadiatorsUsing CuproBraze technology, we can offer superior and cost-effective products.
- Sunil Haridass, DirectorDeccan Radiators & Pressings, Ltd.Clearly, it is superior to any prior technology. We firmly believe that eventually all charge air coolers will be made of copper and brass using the CuproBraze process.
Hannu VetikkoManaging DirectorFinnish Radiator Manufacturing CompanyIt is a milestone for Nanning Baling Technology to become the first company in China to mass produce CuproBraze heat exchangers.
Gu Yu, General ManagerNanning Bailing TechnologyAfter our specialists attended several seminars and visited SHAAZ’n new plant, it was obvious that CuproBraze was exactly what we needed.
Alexander Vedernikov Manager of Technical DevelopmentURALWe closely examined the CuproBraze technology and its implications for our markets. Our customers indicated that they would be interested in CuproBraze products if we could make them.
