Horton Inc. has introduced the new DM Advantage Fan Drives to meet the current and future industry demands for reliable engine cooling, fuel savings and noise reduction. Offered in on/off and two-speed technologies, Horton said the DM Advantage is engineered for the highest-heat under-hood applications.
The new DM Advantage Fan Drives are comprised of premium bearings, a superior air cartridge and a long-wearing friction liner. The improvements in cooling ability yield better engine performance and longer operating life.
DM Advantage Fan Drives have performed flawlessly during two years of field-testing in the highest-heat under-hood applications. The field tests were performed on over 250 trucks, which were driven more than a total of 45 million miles. This level of reliability translates into increased uptime and decreased maintenance costs.
The spring-engaged DM Advantage On/Off Fan Drive keeps engine coolant at a more consistent operating temperature and has increased reliability in high-horsepower applications. It features high torque for turning larger fans, a lighter weight, low parts count for simplicity and a fail-safe design.
The DM Advantage Two-Speed Fan Drive alternates between eddy current and spring-actuated cooling for precise, highly efficient temperature control and faster engine warm-ups in cold weather. It is ideal for vehicles with little or no ram air. While using eddy current, it turns the fan at a lower speed, which reduces operating noise, increases available horsepower for auxiliary systems and minimizes radiator abrasion from dust and debris. When additional cooling is needed, it spring-actuates and runs the fan at full input speed.
