The Stant SuperStat Themostat out performs the Original Equipment themostat.Unlike the OE themostats that continually open and close to achieve the properoperation temperature and flood the engine with coolant, the Stant SuperStathas a patented V-notch, non linear design that reduces cycling by preciselymetering the amount of coolant needed. the V-notch provides a small initialflow. As the engine heats up, the V-notches gradually open wider, meteringcoolant released into the system until the desired engine temperture isreached. The benefits of proper engine temperature control are: efficientengine operation, prolonged engine life, reduced oil consumption, improvedfuel economy and improved emmisions. The SuperStat uses a high flow venturifor maximum cooling capacity during high temperature high load operation, andemployes a patented Weir Valve, for percision flow metering during coldweather light load operation, to ensure stable temperature control under allconditions.The power element of the SuperStat is comparable to those used inthe heavy duty trucking industry. It employs an actuator piston that is 25%larger than our standard themostat and 55% larger than competitive products.This larger heavy piston duty delivers one and one half times as much power ascompetitive stats for enhanced durability and longer life. The flange on theSuperStat is 33% thicker than our standerd product and 43% thicker thancompetitor’s themostats for added strength and longer life.The operatingspring is 50% stronger than on standard themostats. This helps return theSuperstat to the closed position and provent cold running even under the mostadverse operating conditions.
