Automatic transmission fluid cooler
The automatic transmission fluid cooler is used to reduce the temperature of the automatic transmission fluid, which heats up during operation of the transmission.
Operating principle
* Automatic transmission fluid circulates through the radiator.
* The cooling radiator consists of a series of tubes through which automatic transmission fluid passes.
* Air passing through the radiator cools the automatic transmission fluid, removing heat.
Design
* The automatic transmission fluid cooler is usually made of aluminum or copper.
* Radiator tubes can be arranged in one or more rows to provide maximum cooling area.
* The radiator has inlet and outlet pipes to which the automatic transmission fluid hoses are connected.
Functions
* Transmission Fluid Cooling: Prevents automatic transmission fluid from overheating, which can reduce transmission life and performance.
* Reduced wear: Reduces friction between automatic transmission components, reducing wear.
* Extended service life: Regular automatic transmission fluid changes and radiator maintenance will extend the service life of the transmission.
Signs of a faulty automatic transmission fluid cooler
* Automatic transmission overheating
* Slippage or delay when shifting gears
* Smell of burning or burning liquid
* Fluid leak from radiator
