Cooling Fan Clutch
Mitsubishi FUSO®

The Cooling Fan Clutch, also known as the fan clutch, is a vital part of a commercial truck's cooling system. It is responsible for regulating the speed of the engine's cooling fan, which in turn controls the flow of air through the radiator. This part is designed to engage and disengage the fan as needed, depending on the temperature of the engine. The Cooling Fan Clutch is a mechanical device that is mounted to the front of the engine and is driven by the serpentine belt. When the engine is cold, the clutch is disengaged, allowing the fan to spin freely and reduce drag on the engine. As the engine heats up, the clutch engages, causing the fan to spin faster and pull more air through the radiator. This helps to cool the engine and prevent overheating, which can cause serious damage to the vehicle. Overall, the Cooling Fan Clutch is an essential part of a commercial truck's cooling system, ensuring that the engine stays at a safe operating temperature.
