15-3/4" Wide x 15-3/4" tall x 3-1/8" deep, high-output, ultra-quiet, electric fan assembly will boost your vehicle's fuel economy and increase both torque and horsepower.

Specs:
Whereas belt-driven fans use up power from the engine to turn, electric fans do not, thus removing any unnecessary load and increasing both fuel economy and horsepower. In addition, you do not have to worry about an electric fan's slowing down at low RPM, as many belt-driven fans do, so you are guaranteed sufficient airflow regardless of the vehicle speed.
While this assembly is intended for primary cooling and should, therefore, provide enough CFM to replace your vehicle's factory fan, you will still need to determine the CFM requirements for your engine before making your purchase. And remember, engines that have been modified or vehicles often used for towing may require additional CFM. There is no limit to the number of fans you can install, as long they all fit appropriately and are mounted on the same side of your radiator so that they do not cancel each other out.
Two types of turn-on sources are available for this fan. The Derale Lighted On/Off Switch for Electric Fans (D16740) allows for manual control of your fan so that you can choose when to turn it on and off. Thermostatic controls, on the other hand, send a signal to the fan, directing it to shut off when fluid temperatures reach an appropriate level, thus saving power. Once the temperature climbs again and additional cooling is needed, the fan is automatically turned back on. Thermostat switches can be single-stage with pre-set temperatures - D16735, D16738, D16739, D16720 and D16721 - or adjustable - D16778 and D16779.

Michael: Hi there, I'm Michael with etrailer.com. Today we're taking a look at the Derale 16" High Output Electric Radiator Fan and Shroud Assembly. This fan is going to cool your radiator, and it's going to improve the overall performance of your vehicle and increase the fuel economy, horsepower and torque.Unlike your belt driven fans, electric fans like this, don't use up any of the power that comes from the engine in order to make it turn. So it's going to remove any unnecessary load and increase the fuel economy and force power. Many belt-driven fans do slow down at lower RPMs. Electric fans like this, we're not going to do that.
So it's going to guarantee sufficient air flow to your engine, regardless of the vehicle speed.It does have patented ultra quiet shrewd blade design, and it's going to offer the consistent airflow with your straighter flow directors. It's designed with a durable injected mold shroud, and it's going to include all the necessary mounting hardware and your high amperage relay wiring that you're going to need to get this installed.It does have a maximum cubic feet per minute or CFM rating of 2,200. And that should be enough to provide the CFM to replace your vehicle's factory fan. Although, you are going to need to determine the CMF requirements for your engine, before you make a purchase. Just keep in mind that the more strain the vehicle is going to be put under it, the more CFMs you're going to need.
So your modified engines or your vehicles that you're using to tow more frequently might need a little bit more.There's no limit to the number of fans that you can install in your vehicle. It just depends on how much room you have in your engine compartment to mount them. You want to make sure that any fans that you do mount are all blowing in the same direction so that they're not going to be canceling each other out.Our overall dimensions are going to be about 15 and three quarters wide by 15 and three quarters tall, and three and an eighth of an inch deep. Our fan itself has a diameter of 12 inches. And our mounting locations, we're going to have pre-drilled screw holes here that we can use to mount.
Those are right about 12 and seven eights of an inch wide, 12 and seven eights of an inch tall, and about an inch and seven, eighths deep.We are going to have a power draw of 23.4 amps per fan. In our high output motor is going to be 265 Watts. Now there are two types of turn-on sources available for this fan. You can do a simple on-off switch. If you're going to do that, I would recommend the Derale lighted on-off switch for electric fans.
You can find that here at etrailer.com, using part number D16740. That's going to allow you to manually control your fan so that you can choose when to have it on, when to have it off.The other option would be your thermostatic controls. So it's going to have a monitor close to the radiator to tell the fan whether it needs to turn on to cool down the radiator, or if everything's cooled down enough, and it can turn off, which is going to help save you some power.This fan is made in the United States, and it does come with a one-year warranty from Derale. That's going to complete our look at the Derale 16" High Output Electric Radiator Fan and Shroud Assembly..
