1.
One cold start corresponds to 200 km of driving, nothing damages a car engine more than a cold start. If an engine were always kept at temperature, it would last practically indefinitely.
2.
A preheated engine at operating temperature starts quickly, warm oil is light-bodied, cold oil is as viscous as honey. The battery, starter motor and ignition lock are protected.
3.
In the cold start phase, fuel consumption is increased by 300 % to 400 %.
4.
Aggressive exhaust gases are produced due to incomplete combustion. These harm the engine, the exhaust and the environment.
5.
The comfort is also quite pleasant: warm car, warm seats, warm steering wheel, no ice scraping.
6.
Safety: windows do not mist up, good visibility.
The Calix CVH (Continuously Variable Heater) engine preheater continuously adjusts the heating power to the rising coolant temperature by means of a PTC element.
A PTC element is an electrical component with temperature-dependent resistance. Its positive temperature coefficient allows the current to flow better at low temperatures than at high ones. A thermostat is superfluous. The control is extremely reliable and safe.
The power of 500 watts is designed for a coolant volume of 4-16 litres.
With the additionally available pump kit, the engine can be heated up even faster.
Hose connection: | 16 mm |
