Smarter radiator cleaning

The Problem

Modern off-highway equipment can have up to five heat exchangers competing for cooling airflow -- engine coolant, air to air charging, hydraulic fluid, transmission fluid and air conditioning.  
These applications demand high airflow cooling fans. High capacity cooling fans create a strong vacuum effect, drawing in airborne material and clogging air intake screens and radiator cores.

To prevent overheating, equipment manufacturers have designed more aggressive fans that rob more engine horsepower.

The Consequences

Overheating of the engines, hydraulic system and gear box.
Decreased machine performance and increased fuel consumption.
Reduced component life.
Increased downtime for repairs.
Interruption of production to clean radiators. The operator should be running the machine, not fighting tightly clogged debris.
