Laminova Oil-to-Water Heat Exchanger – C43 Series
Introduction
The Laminova Oil-to-Water Heat Exchanger is a compact, high-efficiency cooling unit designed for motorsport and performance vehicles. Using an advanced laminar core design, it delivers exceptional thermal transfer while maintaining minimal flow restriction – ideal for high-output engines with limited space.
Description
Part of the Laminova C43 Series, distributed by Mocal (UK), this cylindrical aluminum cooler features a central finned core where engine coolant and oil flow in opposite directions. This counter-flow heat exchange ensures stable oil temperatures and prevents hot spots even under continuous race load.
Unlike conventional air-oil coolers, the Laminova system integrates directly into the engine’s coolant circuit, allowing faster oil warm-up after cold starts and superior temperature stability during operation.
Available in 160 mm, 245 mm, and 395 mm lengths, each model supports different performance levels and installation layouts.
