What does a water pump do?

This water pump serves as a critical component in the engine cooling system, facilitating the continuous circulation of coolant between the engine block and the radiator. By maintaining steady flow, it prevents overheating and ensures the engine operates within its ideal temperature range, which is vital for long-haul performance.

Vehicle and engine compatibility

This part is designed for use in Volvo FH16 vehicles featuring the D16C engine. It provides a reliable solution for heavy commercial vehicle cooling requirements, ensuring compatibility with original equipment standards for high-load operating environments.

Installation and maintenance

For proper installation, technicians should inspect the timing belt or alternator belt during replacement to ensure overall system integrity. It is recommended to check for any coolant leaks from the weep hole or unusual bearing noise during routine maintenance to identify potential failures early.
