Description: |
| FMS | Fan, motor & shroud assembled ready for fitting, supplied with 4 x 90º mounts 10 x 11 etc. First figure specifies the nominal blade size, second figure is number of actual blades. |
| PULLER | For fitting behind the radiator. |
| BLOWER | For fitting in front of the radiator. |
| P.D. | Pin drive – blades with groove on underside to locate on to the motor spindle spigot, retained by C-clip. |
| REVERSIBLE BLADE | Can be refitted after turning over, converting from puller to blower. |
| DEDICATED BLADE | Designed for a particular direction of airflow therefore minimising height required. |
| OEM | Original Equipment Manufacturer. |
| MOTOR | 100W, 150W & 300W. |
| PRIMARY COOLING | Fans for primary cooling only, usually mounted behind the radiator. |
| AUXILIARY COOLING | Additional to existing fan. |
| WIRING INSTRUCTIONS | Unless otherwise specified, are for negative earth systems, as fitted to most vehicles. Positive earth was used in very old cars and usually requires the wiring polarity to be reversed, please check! (Our motors run perfectly well on positive earth!) |
| THINLINE | The use of quality component parts in conjunction with a low profile dedicated puller or blower blade, maximises airflow. A modern well engineered motor guarantees a smooth performance, low amperage and a long life. The kits are complete with fan-motor-shroud unit, capillary thermostat, tiemounts, flush mounts and wiring harness. |
| PROFAN | Designed to maximise the fan’s potential performance and therefore fitted with the most powerful motor compatible with blade size and type. Dedicated pullers or blowers which can shift large amounts of air. Also available as complete kits. |
| HIGH PROFILE | Fan size 10” with an outer rim of 56mm. Maximum performance. High outputs. |
| CLUB RANGE | Supplied reversible blades fitted for pulling, i.e. behind the radiator, but can be turned over and fitted in front of radiator for blowing. Ideal for single stocking. |
