Fan control
The control unit for radiator fan V293 regulates
the output of the radiator fan and controls the
continued coolant circulation. The induced-air
fan V7 and the forced-air fan V177 are
activated simultaneously.
Forced-air fan V177 is located upstream of the
condenser, water cooler and visco fan. It
assists the visco fan.
The electronic power control
The various fan settings are executed by an
electronic power control.
The fan motors are operated periodically, the
length of the operating cycle depending on the
fan setting selected. Fan output level is
controlled via pulse-width-modulated outputs.
Should a fan fail, the radiator fan control unit
increases the speed of the fan motor still
available.
Advantages of the power control:
•
The series resistors previously used for
power control are no longer required.
•
Lower power consumption in lower fan
settings.
•
Safety functions.
The power supply is protected by a
fuse on the 8-socket relay plate. For
the correct fuse rating, please refer
to wiring diagram.
Vehicles equipped with an air
conditioner require a higher fuse
rating than vehicles without an air
conditioner.
