USMW Heavy Duty Viscous & Electric Fan Clutches

USMW Heavy Duty fan clutches are high-performance components designed to optimize the cooling efficiency of heavy-duty engines, particularly in commercial trucks, buses, and industrial machinery. These fan clutches use a viscous fluid to regulate the engagement and disengagement of the cooling fan based on engine temperature. When the engine reaches a certain temperature, the viscous fluid inside the clutch thickens, causing the clutch to engage and drive the fan, increasing airflow through the radiator and improving cooling. At lower temperatures, the fluid thins, disengaging the fan to reduce engine load and improve fuel efficiency. USMW’s heavy-duty viscous fan clutches are engineered for durability and reliability, offering precise thermal control in demanding environments. They help to extend engine life, reduce fuel consumption, and ensure that cooling systems operate at their optimal efficiency in a wide range of heavy-duty applications.

Materials and Components that Deliver High-Quality in Every USMW HD Fan Clutch


Fan Clutch Emulator tested

Testing fan clutches in a fan clutch simulator is a critical process for evaluating the performance and reliability of these components under controlled conditions. The simulator replicates the operational environment of an engine’s cooling system, allowing for precise monitoring of the fan clutch’s engagement and disengagement behavior. During testing, the fan clutch is subjected to varying temperatures, RPMs, and load conditions to simulate real-world driving scenarios. The simulator measures key parameters such as response time, fan speed synchronization, and the clutch’s ability to properly modulate cooling fan engagement in relation to engine heat. This testing process ensures that the fan clutch operates efficiently, preventing overheating while minimizing fuel consumption. It also helps identify potential issues like premature wear, leakage, or improper fluid viscosity. By using a fan clutch simulator, manufacturers and technicians can accurately assess the functionality and durability of fan clutches, ensuring that only high-quality, dependable components are used in vehicles and machinery.
