Electric Fans

The concept of the electric fan as a replacement for the mechanical fan is well established. Because it is not running all the time it saves power also it is more controllable, for instance, it can be run after engine switch off, especially in conjunction with an electric pump to avoid damaging heat build up. Davies Craig fans have been at the forefront of electric fan cooling from the inception and are fully developed with a quiet and highly efficient blade design which together with the high quality Panasonic motor provides an excellent package. To suit different installations the blade and motor polarity are reversible to change from pulling air through the radiator to pushing.
The “short” fan assembly consists of blade, motor and shroud. The “kit” assembly consists of blade, motor and shroud together with wiring,relay, mounting hardware and instructions.
Fans may be attached directly to the radiator using nylon ties, part no DCQFK
There are three switching options, the fans may be automatically activated by:
 1. The DCFS switch, adjustable from 80 to 115oC and driven by a mechanical sensor, connected via a capillary tube, inserted between the radiator hose and radiator outlet pipe, .
2. The DCFSE switch adjustable from 85 to 100oC driven by a sensor placed in the radiator finning, connected electrically, this unit has a built in relay allowing for an air conditioning override.
3. The DCFSNE switch as above but piggy-backed on to an existing temperature gauge sensor, the temperature at which the fan cuts in is still adjustable.
We stock 12 volt fans, 24 volt are available as are a full range of spares, prices on request.
Fans are warranted for 2 years or 1500 hours, whichever is the lesser, against faulty workmanship and materials.
