VISCOCLUTCH FOR FENDT FAVORIT 512, 514, 515

Viscous Clutch for Fendt, Favorit 512, 514, and 515

The G514200040010viscous clutch is a replacement part designed for the engine cooling system on Fendt Favorit 512, 514, and 515 tractors equipped with the MWM TD226-B6 engine. Also known as a viscous fan clutch, it is identified by its specific application and the part number G514200040010. To ensure you purchase the correct part, you must verify the part number, the exact tractor model, and the specific engine type.

The role of this part in engine cooling

This part is located in the engine fan drive system. In this family of components, the viscous clutch allows the fan drive to adapt to cooling needs, rather than operating at a constant speed. Its purpose is therefore to manage engine cooling, not to act as a transmission clutch.

For the buyer, this point is important: if you are looking for a part related to engine overheating or the fan drive, you are in the right part category. However, it does not replace the fan itself, the water pump, the thermostat, or a belt.

Documented applications for the Favorit 500 series

Part number G514200040010 corresponds to an application on the Fendt Favorit 500 series, with documented compatibility for the Favorit 512, Favorit 514, and Favorit 515 models. The associated engine is the MWM TD226-B6; this is essential for confirming the part’s application.

On an agricultural tractor, a single series designation may correspond to multiple configurations. This is why identification should not be limited to the tractor’s trade name alone. Matching the specific model to the engine type remains the best way to ensure you order the correct fan viscous coupler.

Useful guidelines for selecting the correct part number

Before ordering, start by noting the part number on the removed part, if it is still legible. In this case, the reference number for comparison is G514200040010. Next, verify the exact model designation of the tractor and confirm that it is equipped with an MWM TD226-B6 engine.

It’s also helpful to identify your specific need: a viscous clutch is used to drive the cooling fan. If you’re dealing with a water pump leak, a worn belt, a clogged radiator, or a faulty thermostat, the part that needs to be replaced may be different. This check helps avoid common mix-ups when working on the cooling system.

When to Consider Replacing the Viscous Coupler

An inspection may be necessary if the fan appears to be running slowly while the engine is heating up, or, conversely, if it is running at a very high speed continuously. Unusual noise, irregular operation, play, or signs of a leak on the part may also indicate that it needs to be replaced.

Before performing any work, it is still advisable to inspect the entire cooling system following the procedure appropriate for your machine. To select the correct part number, simply compare the existing part number, the exact tractor model, and the specified engine type.

FAQ — Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of a viscous clutch on a Favorit- Fendt?

A viscous clutch, also known as a viscous fan coupler, is used to drive the cooling system fan. With this type of component, the fan speed adjusts to the engine’s cooling needs, which distinguishes it from a constant-speed drive.

How do I identify part number G514200040010 before ordering?

Identification is done first by the part number on the existing part—if it is still legible—and then by the exact tractor model and engine type. This part number corresponds to an application on an MWM TD226-B6 engine; therefore, both of these points must be verified together.

Is this part compatible with the Favorit 512, 514, and 515 Fendt?

Yes, this part is documented for the Favorit 512 (Type 512), Favorit 514 (Type 514), and Favorit 515 (Type 515) Fendt. You should also verify the presence of the MWM TD226-B6 engine, as the cooling unit is identified by model and engine type.

What signs might indicate that the fan viscous coupler needs to be replaced?

An abnormal rise in engine temperature, a fan that appears to be running continuously, unusual noise, noticeable play, or irregular operation may warrant an inspection. These signs must be distinguished from a related fault in the cooling system, such as a belt, radiator, or thermostat.
