Abstract
A coolant flow control module, having a first outer housing, a first rotor located in the first outer housing, a second outer housing adjacent the first outer housing, and a second rotor disposed in the second outer housing. The second rotor is engaged with the first rotor such that the first rotor and second rotor rotate in unison. An actuator is connected to the first rotor, a first plurality of ports is integrally formed as part of the first outer housing, and a second plurality of ports is integrally formed as part of the second outer housing. The actuator rotates the first rotor and second rotor to at least one of a plurality of orientations such that fluid is able to flow through the first plurality of ports and the first rotor, and fluid is able to flow through the second plurality of ports and the second rotor.
