Optimal technologies for different applications
Fuel operated heaters for full operational readiness
Hydronic, Airtronic and Polarn
Heating and cooling under the toughest conditions
Eberspächer pre-heaters work independently of the engine and can preheat the cabin and/or engine cooling circuit when a vehicle is stationary. An advantage that comes into its own when the heaters are used in different climatic zones. Hydronic water heaters are integrated into the engine cooling circuit, keeping vehicles ready for use in colder regions. The vehicle’s own fan can also be used to preheat the vehicle cabin and de-ice the windshield in defense vehicles. Airtronic air heaters also ensure stable heating performance and keep windows clear of ice. In contrast to Hydronic, they are not integrated into the cooling circuit and feature individually-positioned air outlets. An additional variant, the mobile fuel-powered Polarn compact heater, also ensures optimum temperatures. It is easy to transport, extremely quick to set up and brings warmth to any location.
