Dependable Cooling
on Demand.
Pushing lift trucks to their limit is a fact of life for modern operations, but doing so
risks lost productivity or costly truck damage. To solve this universal problem, Crown
engineered the optional On-Demand Cooling (ODC) System. It delivers the powerful
combination of precise cooling and radiator clearing for better efficiency, increased
uptime and cost savings.
On-Demand Cooling
Crown’s On-Demand Cooling
option enhances the C-5’s
standard dual radiator by
controlling the fan speed
independently of engine speed
and direction, enabling precise
management of airflow.
Radiator Clearing
and Precise Cooling
Manage Temperature, Debris and Costs:
LPG trucks literally vacuum debris from the warehouse floor,
depositing it in the radiator to accumulate day after day. Cleaning
means downtime, but failing to do so risks diminished performance
and truck failure.
Crown’s On-Demand Cooling option controls the fan independent of
the engine, automatically reversing to clear debris from the radiator
with each engine start.
The C-5’s fan also changes speed automatically to manage engine
and transmission temperatures. In addition, the fan operates 30%
faster at idle to keep the powertrain cool.
The Bottom Line: Cost savings, improved efficiency and
increased uptime.
Better Heat Management
A counterweight wedge and
louvers deflect heat and
exhaust downward and
away during reverse travel,
enhancing operator comfort
and heat management.
