Hot Problems
Cool Solutions
Overheating is one of the biggest threats to long powertrain life. Inefficient cooling can cause reduced
performance, component damage or even total engine or transmission failure. That’s why Crown developed an
innovative system that cools more efficiently, increasing truck performance and extending powertrain life.
Competitor Radiator
Average is
Not Enough
In an automotive radiator,
transmission oil does not
circulate across the radiator.
Instead, it flows through a
passive side tank.
Without airflow, the
transmission oil is affected
by increasing engine
temperature, dangerously
raising overall powertrain
temperature—especially
in high duty-cycle
applications.

Radiator
Competitor Radiator Core
• Air flow is reduced by smaller
fins that can easily get clogged
or damaged, reducing efficiency
• Fluid temperatures run hotter,
decreasing powertrain life
Transmission
Cooler
• Passive transmission cooler
provides no airflow and less
cooling efficiency
• Automotive style radiators are
used to meet a lower price point
Crown Cooling System
Twice the
Cooling
Crown’s standard
Cooling System uses
separate high-capacity
radiators with dedicated
airflow to lower both
engine and transmission
temperatures. The high
capacity is obtained by
larger side tanks that hold
more fluid volume.
This protects long
powertrain life.
