Hayden cooler mounting brackets?

[dunk]

Wondering if anyone has used a Hayden cooler with their mounting kit. It is not intuitive and no instructions are provided. Anyone know how this goes? Trying to mount to angle iron. Might just use a few bits like the rubber blocks and get creative if I cant' figure out how to make it work.

Uhm...get creative...they are not direct bolt in ...have fun

Dont mount the brackets loke that ,they will wear thru the cooler.
The rubber blocks go in between the tubes with the nutsert on one side, strap and bolt on the other.
Cooler that size should have 4 rubber blocks.

i have mounted similar types of coolers.

X2 on not mounting the aluminum to the tubes.

i used rubber insulated straps/tube clamps
this style:

4 is enough, 6 would be better.

Those straps IDIoit posted would have been perfect. I ended up getting creative and basically made my own like that using old motorcycle tubes for the inner piece and hammering on my vice to fit the thick straps to the tubes, trimming, etc. Then cut the provided 2" blocks down to 1/2" and 1" pieces. using the nutserts on the backside and long screws through the whole shebang. Came out nice. Just need to disassemble my hokey bracketry when I get a welder and weld and paint it. And of course get some sort of fan on it. This was not a truck project BTW... Just thought you guys may have used one of these before.

After one cycle from empty with everything at 64* my temps are:
Head out: 310*
Cooler in: 292*
Cooler out: 88*
Tank in: 84*

I'd say that's pretty damn good considering I don't have a fan on it. I'm sure with sustained use it will get heat soaked. Now I need to find a cheap 110/220 fan or fans to fit a 12"x20" core. 12v DC fans are cheap, but I'd have to wire up an additional power supply. Prefer to keep it simple/compact and just wire it direct.

Also gonna insulate and OSB in that corner and mount the riser/drip pipe and such to the wall with hose between and get a better filter/regulator combo. So sick of wet air. Time to do it right.

Look for some 6 inch computer fans at a surplus place, if you dont have access I can have my Son find some, hell we probably have some. 110 volt and move lots of air, easy to mount.

You mounted that the hard way but it will work forever.
And they should put instructions in the box. Ive seen many of these ruined by shoddy methods.

Really slick setup

Thanks for sharing...gives me some ideas

Thanks. The cooler is a Hayden 1260 and the water separator is a Norgren F17-600-A1DA. Got both new but discounted and both ooze quality, so I have high expectations. Figure I have about $200 into the aftercooler after misc plumbing and bracketry, but dry air is priceless.

If 6" is a common fan size that I can get cheap that would work well. I could fit 3 of them on compressor side of the cooler. I'll see what I can find.

I also got some 1" stainless flex hose for the air inlet. After I get the insulation and OSB in I plan to mount that to the wall with the hose between pump and intake, and do a quick 90* through the wall then 90* up and have the Solberg filter/silencer outside under the roof overhang. That should quiet it down significantly inside and maybe with a few more bends it'll keep it quiet enough not to bother the neighbors. The Solberg tube filter only slightly lower the noise standing near the compressor but it significantly lowered the pitch and it doesn't carry as far. Might pick up a couple cheap glasspacks and run it through those outside.

Dry filtered air well worth it...add a dessicant filter dedicated for painting and ywr golden...only something like my D V dryer is better...

Once i setup large comp I am copying your setup...thats really cool

I need to find a bigger one for my compressor. Bought a 80 gallon Quincey compressor for a song because of a dumb forklift operator Tried to pick it up with the forks and rolled it. Smashed up the guards and the cooler. Also have to find a 5hp 220 motor. Always projects.

typ4, let me know if you have any fans on hand. Looking at 150mm and 172mm fans on ebay and amazon it looks like it may end up being pricey. I have 6.75" width to work with and 20" of core to cover with fans. Would prefer to keep fans tucked on compressor side so 6.75" or so max. If that was inadequate I suppose I could do two 10" or 12" fans on the other side, but this is a fairly large cooler so I think it'll do fine with just a bit of airflow.

makes me think if i should re-think my set up.
im running 2 80 gal huskys of this exact nature.
i ordered a nice sealed outdoor 5 hp 220 motors from my industrial supplier.
500 a pop, but the ones husky mounts dont seem to last too long with the duty cycle i put them through.
i run a CNC off them 40 hours a week, and tapped to my fab shop. minimal use.

i run 2 water separators, and 2 filters.
then regulated and split in half.
one side is oiled for spindle use.

old tanning beds have computer sized fans, metal frame and all. run on 110v ac too. Low amp draw

That's pretty slick. I bought a HF chilled dryer for painting and it does a fantastic job so far. I'm adding a copper cooling loop pre dryer to help it out in the summer and I'll use it for just general consumption.

It's really frustrating to be doing metal work and your die grinder starts spewing water all over your metal panels.

Did some blasting tonight for about 45 mins and this is a huge improvement. Only got very minimal water in the two small filters at the cabinet when draining after done. Previously I used to leave one filter cracked open and every 10 mins fully clear both and still got clogging periodically. Mucho improvement, especially along with the TPTools gun upgrade and Dust Deputy I recently got. I do need to put a hose on the auto drain of the separator though.

Cooler is definitely getting heat soaked. After compressor running nearly continuously for that time the water separator was at 130*. Tank was cool to the touch at about 20* above ambient. Tank used to get uncomfortably warm. Standing near the cooler you can feel the heat radiating off it. Definitely need a fan.

Cheapest I can figure that'll fit on the motor side of cooler is this: http://www.jegs.com/i/Speedmaster/746/PCE185.1018/10002/-1
This 10 amp power supply would work: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0111A92BK

They make a straight blade of same fan that flows a little more air but unfortunately on backorder under sometime in Jan. I could actually fit two of those fans but would pull 13.6 amps and I can't find a cheap power supply that'll do that. Looks like any AC fans are gonna be excessively pricey, but I can tuck a small power supply out of the way.
