This kit comes with two sensors offering a host of different installation options for coolant temperature sensing.
Sensor 1: Temperature Probe (Air or Coolant Fitment)
It 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 2: 1/8 NPT Thermal Sensor Kit (Coolant or Oil Fitment)
The Thermal Sensor can be placed into the thermostat housing, engine block, or directly into the radiator. If you would like to install this sensor in the top radiator hose, It can also be used with Temperature Sensor Adaptor Kit.
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.
