Davies Craig Digital Thermo Thermatic Radiator Fan Controller Switch Kit 12V DC 0444

A fiercely proud Australian company, Davies Craig has gone to great lengths to keep the manufacture of their products at home in Melbourne Victoria, utilizing a local workforce. Davies Craig was founded by engineers Daryl Davies and Bill Craig, has revolutionized automotive cooling with their innovative products. In 1971, they introduced the Thermatic Fan, the first electric alternative to belt-driven fans, setting a new industry standard. In 1999, they launched the EWP80, the first Electric Water Pump, further enhancing engine efficiency and gaining adoption by major European manufacturers. Known for their commitment to technology, service, and quality, Davies Craig offers a comprehensive range of high-flow electric water pumps, fans, and digital controllers. Their dedication to customer service, along with their ISO 9001 certification, has solidified their reputation as a global leader in automotive cooling solutions.

Davies Craig's very own designed Digital Thermatic Fan Switch Kit can be used with our Thermatic Fans, EWP's and competitors Fans.

The sensor, a Temperature Probe (Air or Coolant Fitment) senses air temperature as it passes through the radiator with the sensor placed in the radiator fin section or the sensor can also be placed directly into the coolant system in combination with a Temperature Sensor Adaptor Kit.

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

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.

IP66 Rated:

• Protected from total dust ingress
• Protected from high pressure water jets from any direction, limited ingress protection
• Not waterproof

Integrated electrical noise filter for improved compatibility and reliability in older vehicles that produce high levels of electrical interference and noise

Fitment Notes:

• 24 Volt Application - Kit sold in 12 volt configuration, for 24 volt application, you will need to purchase 2 x 24 volt relays. 
• Air Temperature Application - It senses air temperature as it passes through the radiator and has an adjustable temperature range of 40ºC to 110ºC (104ºF to 230ºF). The Temperature Sensor is placed in the radiator fin section as close to the hot coolant inlet as possible, no need to cut hoses or can be placed directly into the coolant system.
• Water / Coolant Application - The 0444 sensor can also be placed directly into the coolant system. You will need to use a Temperature Sensor Adaptor Kit to assist with this type of fitment.
• If using this switch for use with Davies Craig's EWP's, it will not vary the speed of the pump in response to engine temperature but rather turn the pump on and off at your set temperature.
