Electric engine heaters of passenger cars. What heater is better for the engine: electro or autonomous. How the engine preheater works 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.

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. because of 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 suitable not only 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 attachments. 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 the old Russian models of 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 kits of Russian 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 cannot be used to heal 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 with a 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 heater, the warm liquid circulates throughout the system, giving the heat of the engine and the furnace radiator. 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.

The inclusion of the autonomous heater is carried out in different ways, but the simplest timer remains the easiest. 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 the 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 of this type in our country are considered to be Webasto and Eberspare. Their models designed for both foreign cars and domestic cars With different types and volume of motor.

Of russian manufacturers Loudly declared a heat-station, producing products, which is cheaper almost 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. To the operating temperature, the interior of the machine and the engine in the 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.

The climatic conditions of most territory of our country are distinguished by a very large range of temperatures: from heat in summer to chilling frosts in winter. In the summer, the operation of the car is quite simple, although it has its own specific features. And in the cold season, the car engine needs considerable time after starting so that its temperature reaches workers. And to facilitate the cold start and saving time, when you warmer the machine, there is an electrical heater of the engine, which for a rather short period of time is able to bring its temperature to acceptable values.

Engine launch features in the cold season

The internal combustion engine due to the characteristics of its design is able to develop the maximum of its power and torque in a rather narrow temperature range. That is why the cold launch, especially in the winter season, is so harmful to engines. Previously, before the appearance of preheaters, the only way was the start and warming on idle or high revs. Now, with the advent of a variety of means and methods of warming up, it is possible to neglected. Especially since modern motors will very effectively distribute heat from combustion chambers and quickly warm up, thanks to which you can start moving almost immediately after launch. But this can be done under the conditions of the usual winter, and if at night the temperature reaches 40-45 degrees below zero? Here the additional heated engine is simply necessary in winter.

What is the engine heater


In the general case, the engine heating is carried out by artificially improving the coolant temperature so that it heats the engine parts (block and cylinder head, as well as the heater radiator). This makes it possible to significantly reduce the negative impact of increased friction force at start-up and local (uneven) heating of its parts.

Types of engine heaters


Actually, the types of heaters are only two - autonomous and electric. Autonomous heated, as follows from the name, does not depend on external conditions and is part of the automotive power plant: For its work, fuel from the tank is used. The most famous example is the autonomous heater of the Webasto engine. Special boilers with fuel combustion are heated by coolant, which circulates on the system - and all this without starting the engine.

The electric auto-heater is also embedded in the engine cooling system and with a special heating element, like a boiler, heats the coolant.

Electric heater as an alternative to standalone devices


The installation of a 220V engine heater is much easier (as it has, in fact, only one element and wires for connecting) and much cheaper, while it does not use gasoline as a heat source, bypassed electricity.

Varieties of electrical heaters


Block


The simplest type of heaters that are installed in the cylinder block instead of a block of side. They are an electric heating element in the housing and connector. Such models do not have a high power consumed (500-700W), but due to the fact that they are directly in the engine, it warms it almost in the center. More complex engine heating systems can be equipped with salon fan heaters, timer launch with remote control. The only problem in the installation can be the engine (crankcase ventilation hose), since it is often set so that overlaps the plug in the block.

Pipes


Such devices are installed in the incision of the main sockets of the cooling system. The heater itself is equipped with a special adapter body, which is installed directly on the hoses. The disadvantage is that most of these devices are designed for the standard diameter of the hoses. Such devices have a power may be higher (up to 2-3 kW), the functionality and the equipment is about the same as the previous group.

Remote


This is a special group of devices that are also embedded in the cooling system, but more complex in its design and installation. Such models are more similar to the "Webasto" heaters, only work on electricity, and not gasoline. Such models most effectively warm the coolant and the cylinder block. In the remote heater also there is also a coercive coolant circulation, which better contributes to the uniform warming of the cylinder block and reduces the detrimental effects of the cold start. The cost of such aggregates varies more than an order of magnitude (from 1.5 thousand rubles for ordinary Chinese models up to 23 thousand rubles for a really good American hotstart). The power of the heating element will also differ much and depends on the litter.

Advantages of engine heating 220V:

  • Low cost Installation kit and installation itself (from 1 thousand rubles).
  • Wide model rangeCompatible with almost all motors, simplicity of design and high efficiency.

Disadvantages of the electric heater:

  • In the nearest accessibility there should be a household outlet for 220V.
  • Outdoor hood during heating. On modern models, this is not so relevant because they are equipped with a special connector embedded in the front bumper.
  • Reliability of some modelsWhich over time begin to skip the coolant coolant at the place of the joint.

How to put the heated engine


Installing the engine heating with their own hands - a relatively simple task. It will not require special tools and special knowledge. Only a general understanding of the principles of operation of automotive engines and an idea of \u200b\u200bthe location of nodes and aggregates under the hood is.

To understand how to install the heated engine, it is enough to look into the installation instructions attached to the kit. The overall sequence of installation is as follows.

  1. Since the heater is installed in the cooling system, it is necessary to merge part of the antifreeze (at least 2 liters to lower its level and prevent leakage during depressurization)
  2. In case of installation of a block heater, a plug from the cylinder block is removed And the heating element is installed. For remote or pipes, hoses leading to the heater radiator are removed. It is better to use hoses included in the installation kit so as not to cut the factory. When installing new connections, all compounds are fixed with the help of clamps, and the fittings are preferably wrapped with a sealant to avoid leaks.
  3. The case of the device is attached using a bracketcoming in the kit.
  4. All necessary connections are held.The rest of the assembly is carried out in the reverse order.
  5. Antifreeze poured back to the desired level. When filling, it is advisable to avoid the appearance of air traffic jams (antifreeze to fill in the expansion tank cautiously, a thin jet!).

Installing the engine heating is the task, quite satisfying almost everyone. And which one type to choose depends on the specific operating conditions and the design features of the car.

3 The most affordable price

Preparation heaters are a proven solution for car owners who live in regions with cold winters and leaving their cars to parking in an open-air or in garages (hangars) without heating.

Furnishing presents the best models of preheating heaters, the use of which will avoid huge engine launchers in frost and significantly extend its resource. For the convenience of the reader, the information was structured by typical categories of installations. The position in the rating of each model was formed on the basis of the estimated characteristics of heaters and reviews of owners who have real operating experience.

Top Liquid Preheaters

The indisputable advantage of heaters on liquid fuel is complete independence from other sources of energy and the time of finding the car in the cold. The preheating heaters of this type are burning fuel, which is available in the car tank. For the stove regularly worked, there must be a working regular battery.

The average price: 24150 rubles.
Rating (2019): 4.9

The domestic company "Teplostar" has developed a whole line of autonomous heaters for gasoline and diesel cars. The BINAR 5S Diesel model has wide opportunities. The device can work not only in preheating mode, but also as a heating device. It is equipped with a GPS modem, which expands the heater management capabilities. The model is designed for diesel engines with a volume of up to 4 liters.

Car owners who have decided to put binary-5s to heal the engine, in their reviews, there are such advantages of domestic development as compact dimensions, installation and control variability. The device is different affordable price, high quality manufacturing, there is a self-diagnostic function.

2 Webasto Thermo Top EVO 5 Gasoline

The most popular autonomous heater
Country: Germany
Average price: 50720 rub.
Rating (2019): 4.9

The heaters of this German concern became so popular among motorists that the concept of the preheater is often replaced by one word Webasto. Many models are designed for specific cars. Running the device can be carried out by timer, with a keychain or through mobile phone. One of the most popular modifications was the heater WEBASTO THERMO TOP EVO 5, which is excellent for passenger cars, jeeps and minibuses with a motor volume of not more than 4 liters.

Car owners note high productivity of the device, long and trouble-free work, unpretentiousness. The heater is completely autonomy, works on gasoline and at peak load consumes 0.64 liters (in supporting mode - almost two times less). In addition, in Russia there are many service centers in which you can maintain and repair the popular Webasto.

The types of car preparation types presented in the table in winter have both their advantages and disadvantages. This allows each owner to choose the option that is most suitable for the operating conditions of operation.

In the Fundament of Winter, many car owners began to think about how to prepare their vehicle to it. Basically, all such preparations are reduced to a banal replacement of rubber, oil, battery (or recharging) and other cosmetic events. However, few people decide to approach this question more thoroughly, and in vain ... After all, if, for example, the engine does not start because of a strong frost, the new rubber and the battery will not help you leave the parking or a poorly insulated garage.

Considering this fact, it is not at all superfluous to pay your attention to such a device as an engine preheater, as in any weather and under any circumstances it is it can provide fast, and the main trouble-free start of the motor. Of course, it is best to purchase a similar device in the finished form, as they say "from the manufacturer", but if you wish and the presence of skillful hands, you can make it alone, let it sound a little unreal. In any case, the main thing is to delve into the details of the work and deal with all possible nuances, and then - the case of technology, would be instruction. Just about this we will talk to you today, but for a start a little theory ...

1. Cured path: Soldering lamps - modern electric preheater

As you know: "All new is a long-forgotten old", although I personally would have changed a little this statement and instead of the word "forgotten" would use the concept of "improved". But it is so it is, many modern devices have a very interesting history of their development. To which our ancestors were not thought of: an iron iron on coals, the first car resembling a cart with a motor, etc. In this regard, it did not exception and the aforementioned preheater And if you turn to the story, you can detect many interesting facts related to this device. For example, whether you know that the "Praded" of modern designs is the most common soldering lamp, an alternative to which (at that time), was except that no less known kerosene (the so-called "kerosekin"). It is their grandfathers and great-grandfathers that were so deftly used in many areas of their livelihoods.

Of course, those functions and opportunities that have named devices possessed cannot be compared with powerful functional characteristics and numerous advantages of modern equipment, but with their task they still coped and since this was more or less enough, it means you need to give them a well-deserved place in history . Modern engine preheater, in our time, is used to facilitate the launch of the motor under conditions of low temperatures, and in some cases, also to warm the air in the car.

Regardless of the type and model, all heaters perform approximately the same functions, responsible for heating and maintaining the coolant temperature of the vehicle (antifreeze or antifreeze) in the desired range. In addition, the device described allows to significantly reduce the fuel consumption, because the engine mandatory warming is much less time. But the most important advantage of using is the highest quality protection of the motor block resources, which, accordingly, increases its life.

If you disassemble the types and possible varieties of heaters in more detail, it is worth noting that absolutely all devices are classified using a certain, single schema. Based on what, the following main models are distinguished:

- gas heaters;

Devices using liquid fuels;

Heaters, the nutrition of which occurs exclusively from the external source.

As for the last species, it is precisely the electric preheater of the engine considered today.

2. The principle of operation of the electrical preheater

Electric type heaters include non-autonomous devices, even for their operation, it is necessary to supply networks (220 V). Now we will understand in more detail in the principle of their work, but to start a little interesting facts.

Did you know? The first inventor of the motor heater is considered to be Endrew Freimen (Andrew Freeman), which in 1949 received a patent for a coolant heater capable of screwing into place of one of the cylinder bolts. In the modern world, electrical type heaters are widespread in the northern countries of different states (Russia, USA, Scandinavia, Canada's cities), since it is here that we feel the sharp need. Moreover, automakers of these regions include them in standard complete set Available cars, and sockets needed to connect devices can be found on many multi-storey parking lots and car parkings.

The existing electrical heaters today are a whole system that consists of several important parts. These include:

- electronic control unit having a built-in timer; Battery Battery Requal Body;

Located in a hermetic heat exchanger, the heating element with a capacity of 500-5000 W (installed in the process opening of the cooling shirt, or it is connected to it using nozzles);

Fan heating for heating salon.

In some models, in addition to the elements listed, there is still a built-in pump, the main task of which is fast and uniform engine warming up.

The standard electrical heater is represented as a spiral device, which is inserted into the motor cylinder block and operates from the external power grid of 220 V. in the role of the main executive element, there is a small electric spiral. In the course of its installation in the block of cylinders, the anti-low plug is removed from it, and the named item is installed on its place. When through a spiral, under the action of high voltage passes the current, it begins to heat the coolant (). The circulation of fluid in the system, passes due to natural convection, although it is less productive than artificial movement using a pump (also spend more time). The most famous representatives of the preheater of this type have models Defa Warmup.

If you store your vehicle in the garage or in the parking lot equipped with electrical sockets, the use of such a device will be as if it is impossible, otherwise it is impossible to apply it (when parking under the windows at home, you just have nowhere to connect the heater, which means that it does not will be). Also, a minus use is strong "voraciousness", and the electricity is not cheap today. It would seem that manufacturers have provided this drawback and completed the heater with a special timer, allowing you to install the required fluid temperature (when crossing the installed face, the spiral is turned off or turns on), but in practice it could not fully solve the problem.

The standard Options of the engine electrical heater include:

- charge battery;

Warming up the working fluid;

Heating of the cabin by supplying thermal air through the stove.

In general, the operating principle of the electrical preheater of the engine is the same as in the autonomous system - also, through the heating of the coolant, heat transmission is carried out by the power unit. The main difference lies in the method of heating (using an electrical power source), which makes it possible to use an additional function - charging the battery, and in winter, when low temperatures contribute to rapid discharge, this is how it is impossible.

3. Engine preheater with your own hands

If the preheater of the motor is not included in stable complete set Car, but you would like to have a similar device - there is nothing impossible. The easiest option is to go to the auto parts store and choose a suitable model (there should be many problems with the installation, especially since the appropriate instruction should be attached to the device). However, there is another path that provides for the independent manufacture of the desired device. The time will leave more, but having done everything with your own hands, you can be confident as a finished product, plus save some money.

And so what to create an electric preheater, you will need simple materials that are "in the farm" from any car owner, this is:

- Incandescent helix (called by Tan), is suitable even from some old kettle;

Metal tank;

Fitting (sold, probably in every plumbing store);

Distribution box (can be found in the electrician store).

Now, armed with elementary knowledge from the field of electricians, mount the device, which should provide high-quality preheating of the power unit, saving fuel and maintain the functionality of the engine for a longer service life. Getting started directly to action, it is necessary to understand that the task is not distinguished by simplicity, which means the whole process (both manufacturing and installation) is likely to be accompanied by some difficulties and specific nuances.

Compared to factory (factory) products, made by hand, it will not be clearly and ideally placed in the engine compartment, so all measurements must be carried out up to a centimeter. However, it is not worth regarding the specified possibility as an irresistible obstacle, especially if there is a lift or observation pit in the garage. If they are not (which is rare, but happens), then, most likely, you will not be able to independently place all the necessary wires and electrical equipmentSince the space under the car will be limited and climb hard. Also, I want to warn about the risk of making a homemade heater, because one incorrect movement and you can get serious engine problems.

4. Installation of electrical engine preheating

Suppose you have a ready-made (purchased) set of an electrical preheater and you decided to install it yourself. In this case, at the initial stage, you need to evaluate the space existing under the hood and decide where the device will be mounted. It may be a place under, metal parts of the tunnels or a place next to the expansion tank of the cooling system. The last option is more relevant in the case of an installation on an SUV, which often moves through the swampy terrain. Also, do not forget to check the prepared harness with wires, because its length may not be enough to combine all the nodes.

Now, with regard to the control panel. When installing the "commander" in the car, it is necessary to immediately determine the free space on the dashboard, where it is possible to output the control elements (perhaps even, it will have to disassemble some part of it). The boilers for heating fluid are installed only on a reliable base, with a circle of them there should also be enough space, because all the wires must be placed in a free order and as far as possible from moving mechanisms.

Well, when preparatory stage Passed, consider the entire installation procedure in step by step mode:

1. The main part of the electrical preheater is fixed to the place selected in advance;

2. Then it is worth checking the quality of the installation fastening, if necessary, you can use special brackets;

3. Next, the installation of the fuel plate is made (or enters the purchased kit, or is purchased separately). Installation sites - Points of connecting filters and fuel hoses, and a procedure is performed using a tee;

4. After that, the electrical system of the heater is connected: power supply is supplied to the device, and turn on / off control is displayed into the cabin;

5. Now the device can be connected to the cooling system (notice: after the procedure is performed, it will have to top 1 liter of fluid to the system);

6. We visually check all the connections of the system, they must be durable and reliable;

7. The last step is to check the preheater operation: run the engine and observe the result.

The most difficult part of the entire process of self-installation, there is work with electricity, but even if you have to seek help to the electrician, the installation of the heater will still be cheaper than the service center service. Another, not less an important point Installations, is an exhaust from the device system. Since the poppy air flow has a high temperature, it is necessary to avoid the possibility of its hoses and hoses placed under the hood. The optimal solution for the solution of this problem is the direction of exhaust to the engine crankcase, which will also lead to an additional oil warming.

Now imagine the following: You have fulfilled all instructions of the instructions that came with the instructions, all as needed to be connected, and the electrical heater does not work, what to do? Naturally, for independent installation Devices, the warranty is lost on it, which means that problems will have to be dealt with on their own or contact specialists, but no longer for free consultation.

In any case, it would be more correct to check the performance of the preheater before installation on the vehicle, suddenly he is already in a non-working condition, but ... if he knew where you fall, the mattress would be forced. However, there are cases when everything worked before the installation, and after it the activities stopped. There are several main reasons for this phenomenon: Most likely, during installation, the connection of the device to the car's power grid was confused or the heater itself is damaged; It is also possible that the system simply does not receive fuel and it is necessary to connect to another way.

If independent attempts to eliminate these reasons were not crowned with success, you will have to seek help from specialists. There you can get more solid answers to all your questions and quickly eliminate the problem.

Some car owners connect the heater to, but for this you have to overpass contacts in its block, which requires special skills in electrical engineering. Therefore, if such a thought comes to your mind - think twice, whether it is worth doing it. In general, we described only the general moments on the installation of an electrical preheater, and all the subtleties and nuances of this process, you can find out with the instructions or with a specific manual for installing a particular device brand.

Winter the car is difficult for everyone, who does not have an engine preheater. This device is designed to warm the coolant, which, in turn, heats the engine elements, which contributes to light launch even at critical temperatures. The work of the PPD allows not only to facilitate the launch of the DVS, but increase its resource and in general to increase the comfort of operation in the winter.

Varieties of engine preheaters

According to the principle of operation of the PPD for gasoline and diesel engines, divide into two main groups:

  • autonomous;
  • electric.

Autonomous

Use the fuel of the car itself as the energy. They are more comfortable, do not depend on external sources, but cost more. If there is no standard heater, install a ready-made mounting kit for a service station.

Electric

To operate this option, you need to connect to 220 volts to the power supply. The principle of operation is like a conventional boiler, in which the heating of the coolant is carried out. Circulation is carried out by gravity (adjacent rises upstairs, and cold drops down).

Autonomous liquid heaters are installed under the hood of the car and operate on one of the types of fuel: gasoline, DT, gas.

Longfei with Pompey 3 kW

Heats the cooling fluid and causes it to move along a small cycle, warming up the power unit even without its idle work without spending the fuel. For heating, a TEN is used, circulation - centrifugal pumping equipment. These elements are located in the device housing and function from household power grid with a voltage of 220 volts.

Longfei 3 kW

This model has a thermostat and power adjustment system. When the cooling fluid is reached the upper temperature limit, the equipment is turned off. Once cool down to the lower installed limit, heating and pump automatically turn on. In the result, the engine is always in a state of readiness for starting and the beginning of the movement.

Miniature autonomous heaters of Longfei are designed to meet the needs of the market. Their sizes are only 8 × 7.7 × 11.8 cm. The heaters are securely fixed on the nozzles using clamps without requiring a special fastening. They are fixed by the serial method by cutting into the inlet tube of the cabin stove. The model evenly warms the engine at high speed. Electronics has high moisture protection and is distinguished by reliability.

Webasto T400The heater is designed specifically for the Russian market. A distinctive feature is the possibility of warming not only the engine of the car, but the creation of a comfortable temperature in the cabin.

Webasto Thermo Top Evo Comfort +

The capacity of the brand of brand Webasto is 5 kW, which is enough for normal work on the gasoline engines With a working volume of up to 4 liters. Included supply is not provided by the regular authority.

The maximum efficiency is "working" a higher temperature of the coolant, early launch of the ADP5 fan, fast heating due to the control of the liquid pump and the best heat transfer.

Severs - budget energy-dependent heater, works from a standard power grid. In the configuration, the thermostat that protects against engine overheating. Heating up to 60 ° C is carried out in 1-1.5 hours. At a temperature of 85 ° C, the system stops working. If the coolant temperature drops to 50 ° C, the heater again starts its work. It is noteworthy that the heater has protection against moisture and from electric shock.

The disadvantage of Severse is just that he needs a socket, so it is possible to use such a device only if there is a power grid.

Defa Warmup 1350 Wfutura is the maximum system of preheating engine, salon and charging of the car battery. The system management is made through the Futura mini timer.

The kit includes:

  • electric cabin heater with a capacity of 1.3 kW;
  • charger Battery MULTICHARGER 1203 12 V, 3 A;
  • cabin mini-timer futura;
  • power wiring set;
  • set connecting cables.

The big advantage is that the device consists of block modules and armored connecting cables. By choice, they can be installed either by separate blocks or a whole complex.

How to warm the motor when there are no sockets? One option - burn your own fuel. So the autonomous preheating heaters are arranged: these are small stoves, burning fuel, taken from the tank, and warm the built-in heat exchanger. Such an preheater is easy to automate - connect a timer to it, output control from alarm.

Teplostar Preparation BINAR-5S (gasoline)

The BINAR-5S engine preheater is a domestic analogue of the famous German "Webasto", which is advantageous from it at a price and with a wider range of operating temperature - to -45 ° C. It is installed on passenger cars with a liquid cooling system operating on gasoline.

The control of the work "BINAR-5S" is carried out through the alarm, the remote timer or through the GSM modem application. This allows the team or on schedule to warm the antifreeze in the car to a temperature of 85 0s followed by shutdown or firing at low power.

A set of equipment is designed to connect to the salon heater or as a separate unit for the lightweight start of the car in the winter.

  • mounting kit,
  • wiring harness,
  • fuel pump,
  • circulation pump,
  • fuel tube
  • air intake pipe,
  • exhaust pipe,
  • muffler.

Review users pay attention to the fact that Thermo Top Evo Comfort Although it is intended only for heating the engine without a salon (for this there is a more expensive version of Top Evo Comfort +), the wires for the wire of the cabin heater are turned on in the wires.

The gasoline version has a maximum heating power of 5 kW at the beginning of the engine warming cycle. In the process of operation, the power of the engine heater is reduced to 1.5 kW, which leads to a decrease in fuel consumption and battery charge.

Diesel at minus temperatures becomes thick, like kissel, as a result of which run the engine even at -10 ° C becomes archative. Someone chooses a diesel for special winter brands, but it is not sold at all refills. Others choose the engine preheater for diesel. One thing does not interfere, but in the aggregate will create ideal conditions for any frosts.
