Davies Craig Digital Thermatic Fan Switch with NPT Sensor & Adaptor Kit - 0438
This kit includes two thermal sensors offering numerous installation options for coolant temperature sensing whilst the inline adaptor allows easy fitting directly into the radiator hose. Just screw the 1/4 NPT sensor directly into the inline adaptor and remove about 17mm (2/3”) of radiator hose, fit the inline adaptor between each hose and secure the hose clamps.
- Temperature Probe: It senses air temperature as it passes through the radiator with the sensor placed in the radiator fin section.
- 1/4 NPT Thermal Sensor: Just screw the 1/4 NPT sensor directly into the inline adaptor or it can be placed into the thermostat housing, engine block, or directly into the radiator.
The switch can run 1 or 2 fans and be used for 12 or 24 volt applications. It has an adjustable temperature range of 40ºC to 110ºC (104ºF to 230ºF) which can show Centigrade or Fahrenheit.
- Fan #1 will start once the temperature reaches the set temperature.
- Fan #2 (if applicable) will start operation 10 seconds after fan #1 starts. The fan/s will operate until the temperature falls by 5°C below the set temperature.
Sensor Wire length:
- 142cm in total (Wire from switch 112cm plus sensor connector 30cm)
- Post 15-Dec-2021 = 320cm total (Wire from switch 290cm plus sensor connector 30cm)
*The sensor wire has been increased to 320cm from the 15-Dec-2021, batch date 2021
IP66 Rated:
- Protected from total dust ingress
- Protected from high pressure water jets from any direction, limited ingress protection
- Not waterproof
The Inline Sensor Adaptor simply fits into your engine’s top radiator hose. The adaptor ends for hose fitting are 38mm in size.
- With the use of our 3mm adaptor sleeve (Optional), this can be increased to 44mm (Part #18510)
- With the use of our 6mm adaptor sleeve (Optional), this can be increased to 50mm (Part #18511)
Two 1/4" NPT holes allow the fitment of a sensor and or air bleed. Should you only need one hole, a bung is included.
*Note: Kit sold in 12 volt configuration, for 24 volt application you will need to change the two relays with 2 x 24 volt relays which are not supplied in the kit.
Convenient push-button settings allow you to quickly set the temperature you wish the Thermatic Fans to be activated.
- The Digital Thermatic Fan Switch is supplied with connectors and everything you need for a convenient and simple install.
- Automatically activates the Thermatic® Fans at the set/targeted temperature when extra engine cooling is required
- Can also be installed to activate an Electric Water Pump and Electric Booster Pump
The Digital Thermatic Twin Fan Switch should be mounted in the engine bay close to the radiator.
