Description / Abstract: Introduction

Note: Nothing in this standard supercedes applicable laws and regulations.

Note: In the event of conflict between the English and domestic language, the English language shall take precedence.

Purpose. This specification describes the functions, performance, validation and shipping requirements for Condenser Radiator Fan Module (CRFM) Air Baffles/Air Guides for GM vehicles. All requirements of this specification shall be met in order to demonstrate Design Validation (DV), and Production Validation (PV).

Applicability. All GM vehicles with Air Baffles/Air Guides.

Remarks. The operating characteristics of parts covered by this standard are operating continuously in temperatures of -30 °C and up to a maximum continuous temperature. Peak temperatures can exceed the maximum continuous temperature by 20 °C. These peaks can make up 60 h in the life time of the vehicle. Based on maximum continuous temperature in installation position and CRFM configuration, the parts are identified by Class 1 to Class 3 according to Table 1. For different continuous temperatures consult the Material Engineer for guidance.
