DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Hot conditions
When operating in high ambient temperatures or
when stationary in traffic, the bi-metal thermostat will
operate and open the valve port between chambers A
and B.
Opening the valve (as shown in RR3758M) allows the
fluid to circulate between the two members, causing
the unit to couple, thus increasing the fan speed and
cooling effect.
Viscous unit coupled (Hot running conditions)
Bi-metal expanded, valve (open)
