Fail Safe® Thermostats
Motorad New Fail Safe® Thermostat.
The new Fail-Safe® thermostat offers advanced
automotive technology and provide motorists with real added value
and additional response time in the event of system overheating.
This is the product of its kind in the automotive industry, developed
for safe engine shut down in the case of system overheating. The
Motorad Fail-Safe® operates in two stages:
|
 |
Stage 1
Under normal conditions, the MotoRad® Fail-Safe®
Thermostat will operate like any other thermostat |
 |
Stage 2
Unlike standard thermostats, the Motorad Fail-Safe®
thermostat, is built with an extra stroke that automatically
locks into an open position when an overheating condition occurs.
This allows the coolant to continue to flow between the radiator
and engine, thereby protecting the engine components from serious
damage while the vehicle is safely driven to the nearest service
centre.
This major advancement in the automotive thermostat technology
since the inception of the Fail-Safe® thermostat
is one that promotes a measure of preventative maintenance
for the engine in the cooling system. Although the thermostat
is not designed to prevent system failure from overheating,
it can greatly improve operating reliability in emergency
situations. This translates into substantial cost savings
for the driver where repairs are required and considerable
comfort in the knowledge that when things heat up, you won't
be caught on the side of the road with major automotive repair
bills.
