THERMOSTAT CONSTRUCTION/OPERATION

BHE011201008T06

## Construction

• A wax-type thermostat with a jiggle-pin has been adopted. The thermostat body is made of stainless steel with excellent corrosion resistance.

1 | Coolant flow
2 | Upper radiator hose side
3 | Jiggle pin
4 | Engine side

## Operation

• When the engine coolant temperature is below 80°C {176°F}, the valve closes and lets the engine coolant circulate inside the engine to improve engine warming performance. When the engine coolant temperature is between 80 °C {176°F} to 84 °C {183°F}, the thermostat begins to open the valve and engine coolant flows to the radiator to stabilize engine coolant temperature.
