Sole Source: Eaton Hydraulics LLC (CAGE Code: 45X75)

The Controller Assembly electronic component is the fan speed controller which controls the speed of the cooling fan.  The controller simultaneously communicates over the CAN bus to the ECM, and other components such as AFES to control the Fan Speed Control Valve.  In case of an engine compartment fire, the FSCB will receive a signal from the AFES and cause the control valve to slow the fan down to prevent pulling the fire retardant out of the engine compartment.  The next higher assembly is the Power Unit Instl (Part Number 12594033), and the end item is the AMPV FoV.
