Cooling Fan Drive Clutches
Warner develops custom electromagnetic on-off fan clutches with various torque
ratings to meet the specific application requirements. The compact fan clutch
design provides the highest possible torque in a small package. The clutches are
“ON” only when required, so up to 20 horsepower is not needlessly wasted turning
the fan. A fully disengaged fan clutch means improved fuel economy, quicker
engine warm-up, increased engine performance and reduced fan noise.
Features
- Optional flange-mount design enables the on/off fan clutch to replace traditional viscous fan drives without adding axial length or changing fan location
- Unique clutch designs makes installation quick and easy
- Efficient Warner 12VDC fan drives are easily controlled using sensors and onboard controls (unlike viscous fan drives, which go from mostly off to mostly on based solely on ambient temperature).
