thermal clutch info

I was looking to see if there was an electrically controlled mechanical fan clutch. Like an AC compressor, and I stumbled on the info from Hayden

Shows that the thermally controlled clutch fans never fully lock up. They run between 60 and 90% of water pump speed depending on application.

Just found it interesting.

As I understand it a standard thermal clutch will lock up approximately 75% of pump speed well the heavy duty lock up at 90% of pump speed
