Global Leader in Engine Cooling Technology BorgWarner Thermal Systems
At BorgWarner, worldwide product leadership begins with the ability to recognize and integrate breakthrough ideas focused on exceeding customer expectations.
The engine cooling environment is one of constant change: new engine families with higher output result in increased heat load. More airflow obstructions cause greater system resistance.
BorgWarner Thermal System’s unique structure puts technology and science together with product design to create innovative products through concurrent engineering. That means better and faster results, and more efficient operations.
At the core of BorgWarner’s Thermal Management Solutions strategy lie industry leading airflow and coolant pump components & modules. Combining these technologies with teams of engineers and technicians who embrace a passion for excellence and a never-faltering sense of responsibility to global communities, BorgWarner products continue to exceed customer expectations worldwide.

Airflow Modules
BorgWarner Thermal Management Solutions Building on a solid core of proven components & modules is the strength BorgWarner’s Thermal Management Solutions.
Up-to-the-minute awareness of the latest engine technology developments and regulatory mandates are the foundation of BorgWarner’s keen market and ability to provide thermal management solutions that are second to none.
Fan Components
Fan Technology Polymer Fans & Exit Guide Vanes The BorgWarner polymer cooling fans range from optimized axial flow fans and ring-fans for specific installations, to new hybrid designs to cover future cooling demands. New features include improved aerodynamics and durability in the same light-weight package. Using technology-focused design methods such as FEA, CFD and MoldFlow™, performance and reliability are optimized.
BorgWarner’s Exit Guide Vane design provides optimized air-flow potential through its world-class efficiency improvements and unique diffuser design. This unique design requires lower torque than fans operating in a traditional shroud, translating into more power to the wheels.

Products
Air-Controlled TechnologyBi-Metal Viscous & On/Off Fan Drives With Kysor On/Off & Bi-Metal Viscous Fan Drives, innovative designs with fewer moving parts mean improved belt life and easier (and less) maintenance. Regardless of the situation, the fan always remains engaged, preventing engine overheating. Combine this fail safe feature with proper maintenance and normal operating conditions and you can expect a million miles of trouble-free service.
Electronically-Controlled TechnologyVisctronic® & Cool Logic™ Fan Drives BorgWarner’s Electronically-Controlled Fan Drives provide proven viscous technology with precise fan speed modulation. This translates into superior temperature control, extending the life of the engine and components, while at the same time, improving fuel economy with minimum parasitic loss.
These maintenance free drives provides reduced fan noise and decreased cooling system component stress. Expect 1-3% improved fuel economy, depending on application and duty cycle.

Coolant Pump Components
Coolant Pumps These components deliver advanced technology to customers who need hydraulic pumping systems or coolant pumps for engine and transmission actuation applications. Products include gear-type and vanetype pumps with fixed and variable displacement and a variety of regulation technologies.
Heavy-Duty Controlled Coolant Pumps The Heavy-Duty Controlled Coolant Pump is an innovation based on BorgWarner’s expertise in viscous technology. A viscous clutch is located between the pump impeller and engine pulley, which allows precise control of the impeller speed to produce the desired coolant flow rate. Soft-engagement and a fully modulating speed range of the impeller are just two advantages. This technology also enables the option of increasing the pulley ration and, by that, the coolant flow at lower engine RPMs.
Hybrid Coolant Pumps Under most conditions, Hybrid Coolant Pumps are electrically driven but can also mechanically engage the FEAD for peak cooling demands. These variable speed pumps drive via high efficiency BLDC motors. Peak cooling requirements are met with integrated motor control, drive electronics and clutched mechanical pulley drives, improving fuel economy and cooling during engine shutdown.
