Overview

The Jayrad Fan Clutch is a high-performance automotive component designed specifically for Mitsubishi Pajero NM and NP models equipped with 3.5L and 3.8L engines. As a critical part of the engine cooling system, it regulates the cooling fan's operation to maintain optimal engine temperatures, preventing overheating during demanding drives or in extreme conditions. Primarily used in off-road vehicles and SUVs, this fan clutch enhances reliability in rugged environments like construction sites, mining operations, or long-haul adventures, ensuring efficient thermal management and fuel efficiency. Built with precision engineering, it aligns with industry standards for durability and performance, making it a trusted choice for automotive enthusiasts and professionals alike.

Technical Specifications

This fan clutch features a thermally actuated design with an engagement temperature range of 85-95°C, delivering up to 20 Nm of torque for seamless fan operation. Constructed from high-grade aluminum and steel alloys, it weighs approximately 2.5 kg and measures 15 cm in diameter, ensuring compatibility with the specified Mitsubishi engines. It operates at speeds up to 6,000 RPM and includes a bi-metallic spring for precise temperature response, reducing parasitic drag and improving overall engine efficiency. Engineered for low maintenance, it withstands temperatures from -40°C to 120°C and is designed for easy integration into the vehicle's cooling system.

Safety & Compliance

Safety is paramount with built-in thermal protection that disengages the fan at high speeds to prevent excessive wear and potential failures. The clutch incorporates fail-safe mechanisms to avoid sudden engagements, reducing the risk of accidents in industrial or vehicular applications. It complies with ISO 9001 standards for quality assurance and meets automotive regulations like those from SAE International, ensuring reliable performance in demanding conditions.

Installation & Maintenance

Installation requires basic mechanical tools and should be performed by a certified technician, taking about 1-2 hours. Ensure the vehicle is on a level surface with the engine cool, and use manufacturer-recommended fluids for optimal sealing. Recommended operating conditions include ambient temperatures between -20°C and 100°C, with regular inspections every 10,000 km or annually. Maintenance involves checking for leaks, verifying engagement smoothness, and replacing if any play or noise is detected to maintain peak performance.
