Fan Driver/Electric Oil Cooler Control

Fan DriverFan Driver Overview

Kar-Tech's Fan Driver/Electric Oil Cooler Control is a low-cost, highly intelligent control module for controlling electric DC fans or oil coolers for use in mobile hydraulic applications. The Fan Driver can drive a single fan in both directions with sustained supply current of 30 amps. An onboard temperature input accepts a sensor or switch for fan on temperature (programmable with a sensor input), and by using programmable ramp up and ramp down times, shock on the motor and mounting flanges is reduced or eliminated.
