This SAE recommended practice is intended for use in testing and evaluating the performance of light-duty automotive electric engine cooling fan assemblies. These Electric Cooling Fan (ECF) assemblies are purchased by light-duty truck and passenger car OEMs from suppliers. They are purchased as complete assemblies, consisting mainly of the fan(s), motor(s), and shroud (see Figure 1); this Recommended Practice will only consider such complete assemblies. Some purchased assemblies using brush-type motors may also include digital control devices such as power resistors or pulse width modulation (PWM) electronics or local interconnect network (LIN) for speed control. In the case of brushless motor technology, the controller is an integral part of the motor where it also performs the commutation process electronically. The performance measurement would include fan output in terms of airflow and pressure, and fan input electric power in terms of voltage and current.

This recommended practice was developed primarily for marine and industrial type applications.

This standard covers glycol-type compounds which, when added to engine cooling systems at concentrations of 40-70% by volume of coolant concentrate in water, provide corrosion protection, lower the freezing point, and raise the boiling point of the coolant. Such compounds are intended for a minimum of 1 year (approximately 12,000 miles) service in a properly maintained cooling system. (Reference: SAE HS-40, Maintenance of Automotive Engine Cooling Systems.) Coolants meeting this standard do not require the use of supplementary materials. For additional information on engine coolants, see SAE J814.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to engine coolant concentrate, ethylene glycol base, for use in automotive and light truck engine cooling systems.

This SAE Recommended Practice applies to engine coolant concentrate, ethylene glycol base, for use in automotive and light truck engine cooling systems.

This SAE Recommended Practice is applicable to all liquid-to-gas, liquid-to-liquid, gas-to-gas, and gas-to-liquid heat exchangers used in vehicle and industrial cooling systems. This document outlines the test to determine durability characteristics of the heat exchanger from vibration-induced loading.

The purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to establish a testing procedure to determine the performance capability of heavy-duty vehicle cooling systems to meet Original Equipment Manufacturer or end user thermal specifications to ensure long term reliable vehicle operations. The recommendations from the present document are intended for heavy-duty vehicles including, but not limited to, on- and off-highway trucks, buses, cranes, drill rigs, construction, forestry, and agricultural machines.

This document supersedes SAE J819 - Engine Cooling System Field Test. The purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to establish a testing procedure to determine the performance capability of engine cooling systems, including charge air coolers, on heavy-duty vehicles with liquid-cooled internal combustion engines. The definition of heavy vehicles for this document includes, but is not limited to, on- and off-highway trucks, cranes, drill rigs, construction, forestry and agricultural machines. Vehicles equipped with side or rear-mounted radiators may require an alternate procedure of a towing dynamometer because of peculiar aerodynamics. Testing is generally conducted to determine compliance with cooling criteria established by the engine manufacturer or the end product user to meet a desired engine reliability goal.

The purpose of this SAE Recommended Practice is to establish a testing procedure to determine the performance capability of the engine cooling system and, if so equipped, the charge air cooling system on on-highway trucks with liquid-cooled internal combustion engines.
