🌊Types of water pumps🌊
Mechanical water pumps are driven directly by the engine. The power consumption of the water pump thereby increases in line with the engine speed. But even during idling, sufficient engine cooling must also be guaranteed for all operating states. Conventional water pumps are therefore oversized for most operating states.
On electrical water pumps, the power consumption can be controlled electronically depending on the extent to which the engine needs to be cooled. This demand-based control ensures lower fuel consumption and therefore lower pollutant emissions thanks to the optimum operating temperature being reached faster and held.
