The engine preheater for diesel engine 220 volts. What heater is better for the engine: electro or autonomous

What? 90 percent of motorists start the engine, not suspecting that in the end its wear increases, the launch becomes more complicated, outlooking the battery etc. The problem is exacerbated in winter, in cold climates. However, there is a good output from the situation - use the engine preheating, which for real Russian winter is a solid plus in all respects.

Electric heated engine

If earlier heated internal combustion engine, due to the operation of the motor at idle mode, it was considered the only effective option, albeit not devoid of flaws, today it is clearly inferior to a new way. And first of all it concerns by side, negative effects of natural warm-up.

Table of models of electrical heaters

The most democratic in price understanding are electrical preheaters. They are also easy to maintain, and do not apply even in the strongest frost. However, they have the only drawback - a socket in 220 V. is needed Although the external from the company "Keenovo" has an arsenal and a heater that works from the onboard network of 12 V, but the cost of 3.5 thousand rubles.

Effective heating of the motor is possible only with the help of special devices that affect directly through the circuit of the cooling system. So the experts argue, leading to the proof of many facts.

Block

For our motorists, in terms of democratic price, heaters are suitable, which are embedded in the cylinder block. They are also quite simple in a constructive plan, since only connector and heating element are endowed. Other attachments, fixators and additional components in such a heater are not provided.

Preheater Defa

The heaters of the devices embedded in the BC are not very powerful, 400-750 W is a maximum. They do not give a quick result, and feed from the stationary outlet 220 V / 50 Hz, so it is possible to use the heater mounted into the engine block, perhaps in the garage or throwing the extension near the house. On the other hand, due to the fact that the BC is heated, the engine warms down in the center and evenly.

Advantages of embedded block heaters:

1. One of advantages of embedded heaters is an opportunity to work for a long time. Due to low power it is not necessary to constantly control them - they will not spoil antifreeze, so you can leave them workable all night or day. If it is still necessary to control the process of heating, at least for household, economical purposes, it is recommended use a regular mechanical timer. It is inexpensive, and in the work of universal. Of the shortcomings - it is buggy in the cold.
2. Also should not be noted security use. As a rule, in the kit there is a heat-insulating fabric that does not allow isolation to be installed located near the wires and spread energy into the surrounding space, thus increasing the efficiency of the device.
3. Easy installation, By the way, by the way, one of the predominant features of such heater.

Block heater Longfei

Disadvantages There are only two:

For a long time heating and the need for a fixed outlet 220 volt. Since, for example, at ambient air temperature, about 0 ° C, a 600 W heater will warm up the liquid during one hour. If the temperature is -10 ° C, then the time will increase to two hours. And if you buy a budget with a capacity of 0.5 kW, then even longer.

Today, among the numerous models of the budget segment of the embedded heaters, electrical equipment from defi and calix are distinguished. They are complete with a wire and fork no more than 4 thousand rubles.

The system is easily complemented by all sorts of equipment that benefits. For example, you can add a starter timer, a remote control, recharging AKB, a cabin fan heater and much more. However, it will already cost more than 25 thousand rubles, not counting the installation funds.

There are also domestic block heaters, but their use is limited. For vazov engines, the device is suitable for the price of 1.3 thousand rubles. You can buy "Start Mini" equipment for even lower price, which is not only suitable in domestic cars, but also Japanese or Korean, such as Toyota or Hyundai.

We present for you popular models of embedded heaters.

Pipes

In addition to devices embedded in the BC, there are also systems for mounting in a cut of thick nozzles. They are distinguished by the presence of an adapter enclosure. Installation does not bear any particular difficulty, the return is not bad. but there is a minus - Electric heaters from this series are designed for the standard diameter of nozzles.

Defa and calix produce not only block, but also pipe heaters. They are manufactured in our country, implementing very low prices. But these options for the heaters are intended only for Vazovsky, UAZ or Gas models of cars.

There are also universal models equipped with a strengthened hull. However, they are hardly suitable for foreign cars.

Electric heaters got the greatest popularity in our country, as it is constructively easy to install and universalized. Them easy to embed in the contourUsing hinged equipment. They are equipped with powerful heaters, the strength of which reaches 2-3 kW.

Remote

It is especially worth noting the electrical heaters called remote. They are more complex in the design, mean the presence of hoses, thermostators, clamps, etc. are produced by domestic manufacturers, such as Severs-M, Alliance and many others.

Installing the heater Lunfea (Xin Ji)

The overseas manufacturer of such equipment is also popular in Russia. This is a state of hotstant TPS. It is worth the equipment at least 6.8 thousand rubles, but you can only purchase to order.

Separate attention among the electric heaters deserve models with forced circulation of coolant. Above the variants of electrical heaters with natural circulation.

So, the most famous among this series are systems from the same American hotstart (the price of 23 thousand rubles). There are cheap domestic options, worth not more than 2.4 thousand rubles. Chinese heaters, such as Blue Ji, are worth 1.5 thousand rubles. Their power does not exceed 1.8 kW.

Disadvantages of electrical heaters:

1. Need a household socket in 220 V.
2. Combability of the opening of the hood for access to the fork. These difficulties sin old russian models Heaters. Bumper connectors appeared on modern.
3. The reliability of some models is not impressive. Particularly weak of the corps of domestic and Chinese heaters, transmitting antifreeze and leather. An experienced installer initially plant the cover on the sealant.
4. Low quality additional equipment (Again, we are talking about Russian kits or chinese production). It is advisable to replace the attached equipment with imported hoses, plastic adapters - duraluminum, chlip holders - on durable and wide clamps.

Advantages of electrical heaters:

1. Installation of heaters costs inexpensively, even in metropolitan car services. approximate price - 1.5 thousand rubles. You can easily put it yourself and do it yourself, but without the presence of specific knowledge can not do.
2. The widest model range and unpretentiousness in operation.

Heating plates

Lastly, the so-called heating plates are becoming increasingly popular, which are installed on the engine case, cylinders, crankcase, and so on. These heaters are used not only in cars, but also in other techniques - generator installations, microprocessor equipment, plaquinity, diesel locomotives and electric locomotives and many others.

Heating plates are based on thermal electrical heaters (Tan). Most of them can be connected both to the stationary network with a voltage of 220 V / 50 Hz and the onboard power supply of the car (12 V DC). Power can be different, the interval ranges from 100 to 1500 W. And the temperature developed by various plates is + 90 ° C ... + 180 ° C. As for the installation, the devices are attached with the adhesive film (the surface is pre-surface and degreased).

Electric heating plates can not be used for heating rechargeable batteries. For these purposes, other devices are applied.

A feature of the heating plates is that they are designed to work in a long mode. That is, with their help you cannot quickly heat / heat the engine or its individual items. Although there are separate high-power models working with a time relay.

The advantages of heating plates include:

• Economy. The use of electricity will cost you cheaper than liquid fuel.
• Reliability and durability. Most electrical heating plates do not need to be repaired and preventive inspections, you do not need to contact them with service centers. At the same time, manufacturers, as a rule, establish a significant period of warranty.
• Easy installation. Most of the heating plates are simply glued to the heated surface with the adhesive film, which comes in a set with a heater. Installation can be performed independently without referring to a service station.
• Resistance to abrasion. The surface of the heating plate is covered special Material, Sustainable not only to abrasion, but also significant mechanical damage.
• Security use. It concerns both the driver and directly elements of the car. The heating plates are well protected from moisture and small particles inside them (the degree of dust-excrement is IP65 in most models).

As for the shortcomings of the heating plates, it should be attributed to them:

• High price. The benefits described above are the high cost.
• Worn Accord. Due to the fact that electricity from the battery is used to work the plate, the driver must constantly monitor the condition and performance of the latter. Up to replacing it to more capacious and / or new.

However, as practice shows, electric heating plates are very convenient to use, and their purchase justifies itself, especially in the regions with a cold climate. Therefore, we would recommend you if possible to buy heating plates and use them for installation as an alternative to conventional engine preheaters.

Now we present to your attention some popular plates used by car owners.

Autonomous heaters

Otherwise, they are called fuel, as they function on a merry. The principle of their work is reduced to the following: the pump pumps gasoline or diesel fuel tank to the combustion chamber. The ignition of the mixture comes from a hot ceramic pin (the last sufficiently low share of the current for heating, unlike the metal).

EBERSPACHER HYDRONIC D4W, installed on auto

As a result of heating the heater, the warm liquid circulates throughout the system, giving the heat of the engine and chimney radiant. As soon as the temperature reaches more than 70 grams. Celsius, the stove turns on the half-time and standby mode. Those, the device does not function at full power, but when the temperature drops below 20 gr. the cycle is repeatedWhat explains the name - an autonomous heater.

The autonomous heating system of the automotive motor has different modes of operation. For example, summer, when the air inside the car is blown out occasionally a fan. If such a system is involved, the presence of air conditioning is not needed, because it is easy to reduce the temperature in normal mode.

Turning on autonomous heater implemented different waysBut the simplest timer remained. It is inside the car, it can be programmed and put on any duration of operation.

Turning on with the help of the timer is very convenient. For example, if the motorist is sent daily to work, then the timer can be put on the same inclusion time.

How WEBASTO THERMO TOP EVO works

If the variable schedule is more suitable, it is better to use a remote to turn on. It is able to act within a radius of up to 1 km. In other words, the heater can be included with a balcony of a multi-storey house.

Another control option is a GSM module. You can use it from a conventional smartphone, controlling the operation of the module through commands. Theoretically, the GSM module will be able to connect from any point of the globe, if only the machine was in the action zone.

The most popular devices this type We in the country are considered to be Webasto and Eberspare. Their models designed for both foreign cars and for domestic cars With different types and volume of motor.

From Russian manufacturers loudly announced a heat-station, producing products, which is cheaper not twice as much as foreign counterparts.

Table of models of autonomous heaters

Disadvantages of autonomous heaters:

1. The difficulty of installation. This is not an electrical heater, which can be easily installed with your own hands.
2. Horregious. There are an order of magnitude higher even basic models, without additional components. In addition, the installation of such equipment is highly assessed - at least 8-10 thousand rubles. And the more difficult it will find a place under the hood for mounting, the it will be more expensive.
3. Dependence on AKB. Under the hood you always need to keep a rechargeable and reliable battery.
4. Some models are dependent on the quality of fuel. It is recommended to pay attention to this, regularly diagnose and clean.

Advantages of autonomous heaters:

1. Offline mode, no need to depend on external power sources.
2. Super efficiency and the possibility of long-term continuous functioning. Before operating temperature Salon Machines and DVS in cold winter days can be heated at a combustible consumption of less than 1 l / h in just 40-50 minutes.
3. A wide selection of ways to use and programming.

Make a choice in favor of this or that heater will now be much easier. If financial means allow you to better establish a standalone option. For other cases, it is possible to choose a good and quite efficient - electrical heater.

Preheater - device, indispensable for most drivers in the cold season. Thanks to a simple, but efficient device, the start of the engine at a minus temperature will occur in minutes. But at the same time you do not have to warm it up for idling.

Many will probably think that it is impossible. After all, the engine warming during the cold period of the year is simply necessary, and for this you need to start the unit and stand for some time with the engine center. Only after that you can touch from the place, and that without accelerating to high speed.

This process usually requires considerable time and gasoline. And the lower the temperature ambient, the longer you have to warm the engine. Of course, this factor does not very benefitly affect the environment. A reasonable alternative is the installation of the pre-heater for the motor. Next, we will tell you how this mechanism acts and how it can be installed on your car. And at the same time - on the features of the operation of the premise mechanism. Also provide video to install the preheater 220V on the car.

What is the engine preheater

Before installing the mechanism on your car, it should be understood in principle of its action. The fact is that the heater heats up not the aggregate itself, but antifreeze fluid. It works as follows: The tungsten spiral is placed in a special block.

It is placed under the engine, it works temporarily until the mechanism is warmed up, and the car will not start working in its usual mode. That is, the device performs the same function as the long-term heating of the engine, only the fuel is not spent. It is enough just to turn on for a while, after which you have a car and start moving.

Regardless of the gasoline or diesel, the car is running, the device will be equally effective for both types of motors. A particularly relevant preheater is for diesel units that are much more complicated at low temperatures than gasoline.

What are the engine preheaters

At the moment we will throw out the option homemade deviceSince most professionals are inclined to think that experiments in this field are acceptable only with certain skills and knowledge. Otherwise, they will be dangerous.

As for the heaters from the manufacturer, they are divided into two main types:

• electrical preheaters 220 V, the installation of which we will look more in more detail. One of the advantages - low cost and simplicity, because to install such a device on your car can almost everyone who wants;
• autonomous preheating heaters, for which no connection to the power supply is required. Such mechanisms are very convenient. In order to use them, just press the button. Food comes from fuel system either from gasoline in special fuel tank. But their cost is significantly higher than those devices that feed from the power grid.

Autonomous preheating heaters

Autonomous devices are mounted so that the machine can be started at any time of the year, at any temperature, and no matter if there is a 220 second socket, they are easy to perform and are based on the principle of air recycling.

In general, the heater works in about the same way as the analog that operates from 220 V. The coolant is heated directly in the device block. Heated antifreeze rises over the system when it comes out of the block. In the radiator, it cools again, and through the natural circulation comes again to the heater. So the liquid circulates until the unit does not get inspired.

Depending on the characteristics of the device, it can be mounted in two ways:

• connecting to car electrical systems;
• connect to the cooling system.

In addition to standard functions, the heaters quickly warm the car's salon. You can install them in any free space under the hood of the car.

Electrical Preheaters 220 V

As mentioned earlier, the electrical heater has a pretty simple device. The entire main work performs a block with a small element designed to heat the coolant. In this case, it will be the opposite, to warm up the unit. In addition, the preheater has a power cable connected to the outlet 220 V. It is this variant of the preheater that the craftsmen are most often done manually.

Depending on the configuration, the heater can be equipped with the following options:

• device to recharge the device power battery;
• timer with thermostat;
• fan;
• remote control.

The price of the preheater is usually low and mainly depends on the availability of certain options. The circuit of the installation of the electrical preheater is quite simple. Installation does not require certain skills, because it is possible to do without a visit to the service center.

Important! The preheater operating from the network in 220 V consumes quite a lot of electricity, since the TEN installed inside the device has a sufficiently high power. Its indicator can fluctuate depending on the characteristics of the product.

How to install the preheater for 220 in your own hands

The installation of the heater does not require much time and some special knowledge. Almost every motorist can cope with the task, which knows where the main working components of the car are located. The installation process itself will take no more than 3 hours. Video instructions for installing the premium mechanism will help in performing all necessary work:

But if there is no confidence that the installation will be performed normally, it is better, after all, to visit the tokens.

In the case of self-installation, you should follow detailed instructions. As a rule, it comes complete with the device.

Sequence of actions when installing the preheater for 220V.

Operation of heater

Often, the manufacturer promises that for complete heating of the unit will require no more than half an hour. But at low temperatures, this indicator can be from one to two hours.

The preheater, directly connected to the car stove, quickly warms not only the unit and the system adjacent to it, but also air in the car cabin. Thus, the engine preheater performs both two functions simultaneously. The engine does not need heating if the ambient temperature is +10 degrees and above. In this case, there is no need for excess electricity costs.

Winter time is quite problematic to operate cars. In this period, lubricants, technical fluids and fuel have an increased viscosity due to lowering the ambient temperature. To bring them to an optimal state, it is recommended to use the engine preheater 220V.

Such practice will reduce the power load on the conjugate design elements. The engine will be run faster, as well as the active wear of parts will decrease. The installation of a 220V engine heater is recommended from time when the ambient temperature decreases to +10 C. The presence of an additional heating node will allow to run the motor already heated.

Effective engine electric heating in winter is based on increasing the temperature of the coolant (antifreeze), which circulates on the technical channels of the cylinder block. Installed advancement is reliably coping with its task, providing high-quality operation of the engines. internal combustion In a different type of transport:

• passenger carsmobile;
• trucks of various modifications;
• bus fleet.

Manufacturers offer the designs of their models that can be equipped with an electric staff, or do not have a similar node in a cheaper version of the execution. In any case, this instrument needs to connect to the household power grid. Often it is used on indoor paid parking or in a personal garage. Less frequently open parking lots have stationary racks with outlets.

Products issued by popular manufacturers have a high degree of protection. They can be left included on the whole night or day and not be afraid of any incidents. The modern automotive heater of the 220V engine is equipped with an automatic shutdown node when the installed temperature mode is reached. As soon as working fluid It will cool down to the threshold level, the device will start again.

Correct product choice

Before installing the engine heater 220V, it is necessary to determine its parameters. It is necessary to navigate in such a situation for the presence / absence of pumps and the power characteristics of a particular product. The latter are selected according to the motor volume. For all designs are such advantages:

• economies fuel, which is spent without heater to warm;
• high fireproof degree;
• simple operation;
• compactness.

Even the largest embedded specimens with modest dimensions weigh only a couple of kilograms.

Pumps in the apparatus

Models with electronasus heaters allow you to drive fluid through the channels during the heating process. Such functionality provides a higher efficiency of thermal equipment. In this case, the time saving time to achieve the specified parameters.

After inclusion in the power grid, the TEN built into the housing is beginning to warm up. In parallel, the electropade starts, sending warm antifreeze into the channels through the outlet nozzle. Through the inlet to the Tanne comes from the cylinder block cool fluid. Thus, over a closed contour is carried out.

It is important to know that the design of the preheater is provided by a thermostat, which periodically turns off / turns on circulation and heating, holding the temperature of the fluid in the specified range.

Usually, at the achievement of +70 C in two-time models of heaters, it takes about 30-50 minutes. The exact time directly depends on the ambient temperature and external weather factors to which the presence of wind on open parking, precipitation, etc. In garage or boxing conditions, the car warms up faster. After that, the car is ready for operation.

The benefits of the pumping design are the following factors:

• it is spent on heating less time than that of pile samples;
• the temperature rise occurs with the entire engine is evenly, since the channels cover the entire block;
• temperature deformations are not allowed during the initial cycle.

The following features are the disadvantages of these products:

• additional power of the device is spent on the movement of the liquid, so in most models this parameter cannot be below 1.5 kW, otherwise it will not be possible to output the fluid to the desired operation mode;
• the presence of a circulation pump increases the cost of the product, and also increases the likelihood of its breakage due to the presence of an additional node;
• the electrical appliance consumes more energy, which affects operational expenditures;
• some models require the connection of the pump to additional power in 12 V, for example, from the battery.

The popular model of this type is the Severste + apparatus. It is offered to buyers in a two-chip modification. The device comes assembled with a universal mounting kit. Detailed written briefings and important details for joining the motor is attached. Characteristics of the device:

• the dimensions of the finished node 86x86x180 mm;
• cord for connecting 150 cm;
• 2 kW power;
• current consumption 220 V 50 Hz;
• outer coating anodized protective aluminum;
• built-in thermostat, triggered by 80 s;
• the thermal shutdown occurs at 140 s;
• the hermetic case eliminates the penetration of the heated fluid to the electrical nodes.

The device has certification and meets all electrical safety requirements.

Design features:

• the horizontal type of installation does not allow the possibility of antimony penetration by electriciance, increasing the safety of operation;
• built-in ball valve forms a flow to circulate fluid through a TEN in the desired direction;
• the thermostat holds the fluid in the right mode;
• the thermal switch is an additional protection against possible improper operation of the thermostat.

We recommend choosing models with a bumper connector. This feature allows you to quickly connect equipment without opening the hood. The plug is usually fixed in such a situation with a radiator grille or in the bumper area.

Without built-in pump

Buyers have access to the cooling system before starting the engine 220V in the configuration without an electroprompa. It is a more common type of this equipment. Such aggregates do not need additional maintenance, but at the same time they have a high degree of reliability.

The benefits of pure models include factors:

• stable performance in any conditions;
• connection exclusively to the household outlet;
• easy installation of the apparatus to the cylinder block;
• reduced power consumption by the device.

The minuses of this scheme are:

• circulation is carried out solely due to the temperature difference, passing mainly in a small circle;
• it takes a longer time for heating;
• you need to carefully select the model, as there are poor-quality specimens.

An example of such models is the products of hotstart series CL, SL, SB, SL. They are in demand in cars with high power diesel engines. The housing is made of durable aluminum alloy, cast under pressure. Connect the devices from the network 220 V or 380 V.

Method of installation on passenger cars

The installation of the preheater of the engine 220V is carried out at the bottom point of the cylinder block of the cylinder. In this part there is a threaded plug. In the vaza models it is convenient to use the area near Langeron, where the beam is attached to it. Most fasteners have special brackets.

Important! Previously, it is necessary to merge the coolant, as the system will be deposited.

The housing of the heater has an index arrow, indicating the input of the fluid input. This pipe must be connected to an external housing shirt power plant. From this hole, the antifreeze will be held in the channel channels, and then moves to the upper nozzle, which goes to the pump from the radiator.

The sets have a specialtucer. It must be screwed instead of a drain thread screw (cork). The upper nozzle is cut and shared with a tee. It is important not to confuse the direction of fluid flow, since the technological angle of inclination allows the antifreeze to move freely via the updated channel system.

After all the nozzles are assembled, pour antifreeze into the system and control the tightness of the joints and seal the clamps. Test warming up the installed thermosystem.

Mounted liquid engine heaters are more favorable devices, in comparison with stationary bulky models. They are also more economical at energy consumption and have a smaller price tag. The widespread dissemination of such equipment has proven its effectiveness in the operation of cars of different class.

Thanks to the preheater car Engine Easily starts even in a strong frost. At the same time, for the operation of this device, you do not need to pre-start the motor. This means that fuel consumption is reduced to 0.1-0.5 liters per start.

Types of engine preheaters

1. Autonomous. Such devices are operating due to fuel combustion in the built-in combustion chamber. If you want to buy an engine preheater that could even work back from civilization, select a model from this category.
   The lack of such devices is only one. They cannot be used in the premises where there is no ventilation system.
2. Electric. Such models operate from the 220V network and are connected to the engine using special cables. Devices are easy to install, and when used, a new warranty is saved. vehicle. The only minus in the data preheaters The engine is the ability to operate only when connecting to the external power supply.

Use a convenient search system

Even in the warm period of the year, you should not forget about the upcoming operation of the car in the winter. In the conditions of the harsh time of the year, the installation of a 220V engine heater will become reliable and simple way Prepare a car to the cold launch.

Appointment and main differences

The engine starting heater is intended to save the desired coolant temperature at a certain level. For example, the temperature of 40 ° C will provide the necessary conditions In the cylinder for the rapid start of the motor, regardless of external conditions.

Constructive electrical heater represents an affordable design compared to independent engine start devices. The usual heater with the "Electro" prefix is \u200b\u200ba heating element with an accommodation in the body of the power supply of the feed wires.
Among the advantages of such a device are allocated:

1. Simple designwhich will allow you to install own forces.
2. Low costwhich is due to design features.
3. The possibility of later upgrades. If necessary for passenger cars, you will be able to add a timer, a fuse sensor and other option devices.

Before switching to the installation of the engine heater from the stationary network 220V, get acquainted with constructive features. The construction is based on a tungsten heating spiral with an accommodation in the cylinder block. Depending on the power, a small amount of antifreeze can be heated relatively quickly.

The main disadvantage is big flow Energy. In just one night, individual models consume up to 10 kW of electricity. That is why progressive samples are equipped with sensors to periodically disconnect the device from the network.

It is worth noting that the engine type does not affect the execution of the device. Is gasoline or diesel engine On UAZ, the device is installed in the same way. Here the difference is not as high as the correspondence of the size of tires and disks for SUVs. With a certain skill and compliance with security measures, it is not difficult to assemble the engine preheater with your own hands. To avoid unsuccessful experiments, consider an example of the original automotive heater by 220 V.

Example of a homemade heater

The principle of the heater is based on the free circulation of the coolant in the closed circuit of the cooling system. The device for heating fluid is embedded in parallel radiators. Accelerated fluid circulation will provide additional pumpwhere the natural velocity of the fluid will not be enough.

In order to manufacture the engine electric heater on its own, you will need:

1. A piece of pipe. From one end, the hole is required for the installation of heating tan. At different parts of the pipe prepared holes for the installation of fittings.
2. Electric TEN. Power is selected based on the size of the engine and the capacity of the lubrication system - from 400W to 2kw.
3. Two fittings, taking into account the diameters of the cooling system nozzles.
4. Piece of cable and fork To connect the Tan to the 220V network.

For the collected design, it is necessary to ensure installation under the tilt. This will ensure the possibility of antifreeze movement. Additionally, before installing the heater, it provides its thermal insulation.

Examples of industrial devices

Serial production of engine heaters 220V has been established for domestic modelsand for installation on any car. For installation, the VAZ model will fit the preheaners of the following models:

1. Device "Storgery". The model is designed to be installed on the car of the Volga Auto Plant, taking into account the size of the nozzles. The cost does not exceed 1.3 thousand rubles.
2. Product "Start Mini". It has a simple design with the creation of a natural thermophone circulation in the circuit. Cost - about 1,000 rubles. It has several modifications for installation on different motors.
3. Start type models - M1 / \u200b\u200bM2, Sibir-Malso ensure the heated engine for domestic models. Price range from 1000 to 1800 rubles.

Among the models of the new generation, Severs-M heaters are isolated, which are equipped with emergency switch, and adapted to some popular models of foreign manufacturers.

If necessary, select the engine preheater 220V, you should pay attention to hotstart products from the USA. It will be possible to find models of the most varying degrees of complexity:

1. TPS line. It has a wide range of vertical models depending on the diameter of the nozzle at the thermostat or are manufactured with the built-in thermostat. Different compactness and maintainability.
2. Line of devices type CB, SB, Cl, WL, EE. It is characterized by a horizontal layout, with a capacity of 1.5 to 5 kW, and is intended for installation with motors from 2.0 l to 10.0 liters.
3. Model of type hotflow. If necessary, put an effective heater with POMPA, it is worth paying attention to the devices of this group. The power of the samples is located in the range from 1 to 144 kW.

Recently, the installation of an engine preheater has become possible with models of Chinese manufacturers. At the same time, such products are often equipped with special sockets. Who installed budget models, it knows that the main inconvenience of the heaters 220V is the need to open the hood each time each connected. That is why often the choice is made in favor of the autonomous heater. Therefore, the remote socket is a significant advantage of some models.

The installation order of the heater 220 V

The easiest solution to install the heater is to appeal to the service station. The cost of work in this case will not exceed 1.5 thousand rubles. However, in practice independent installation It is not a more challenging task than to start a two-stroke engine.

In general, the work algorithm for installing the engine heating for passenger cars looks like this:

1. Drain of antifreeze. The entire volume is not necessary - the order of 2 liters is merged with the collection into a separate container.
2. Flexible pipes are disconnected At the installation site.
3. A heater is installed With a connection to a closed contour, with the observance of structural features.
4. Finite assembly. The stage provides for reliable fixation of nozzles, power supply sockets.
5. Replenishment of the coolant level.

At the final stage, it is necessary to check not only the performance of the device, but also the normal functioning of the cooling system as a whole. After that, be sure - the car is ready for winter operation.
