A thermal management system and method includes a conduit assembly having a first conduit and a second conduit fluidly separate from the first conduit. The first conduit is fluidly coupled with and extends between a source of a first fluid and a destination for the first fluid. The second conduit directs a second fluid between an inlet and an outlet. The second fluid is configured to exchange heat with the first fluid within the conduit assembly. A control assembly includes one or more control elements that are configured to control an amount of the second fluid that is directed through the second conduit. One or more processors control operation of the control assembly based on one or more of a temperature of the first fluid or a temperature of the second fluid.

Thermal management system and method

A cam lock system for an air intake filter housing is provided that includes a clevis rod adapted for connection to a bolt on the air intake filter housing; a cam handle; a filter clamp coupled to the cam handle, the filter clamp having one or more cam surfaces thereon, the cam handle and filter clamp pivotally connected to a first end of the clevis rod; a spring carrier disposed at the second end of the clevis rod; and a spring disposed on the clevis rod and restrained between the spring carrier and a washer disposed on the clevis rod. The cam surface engages the washer and pivotal movement of the cam handle and filter clamp causes compression of the spring via the washer to provide clamping force to secure an air filter element in the air intake filter housing.
