T7Design 12v 400w Stand Alone Electric Cab Heater

T7Design Standalone Electric Cab Heater 12v 400w

The T7Design Standalone DC 12v 400w Electric Heater is perfect for small volume applications that require a reliable electric heating system. These are suitable for use in forklift trucks and other electric vehicles.

Our heaters are designed with an emphasis on safety, reliability, and quality, we have chosen components manufactured by the leaders in their respective fields for use within our heating systems.

Only the safest heating elements are used, not only is the surface of the heating element fully electrically insulated but it is also mounted within a non-conductive and temperature resistant housing. The heater elements are self-limiting which means the closer they get to their maximum temperature threshold the less current they draw and the less power is dissipated.

Without airflow the highest temperature the element can reach is approx. 285°c, this is far lower than traditional Resistive Wire which can get as 480°c and Quartz Halogen at 500 - 1500°c. Another advantage of lower operating temperatures is the increase in useful life; the less extreme running temperatures the longer component life you would expect to achieve.

In the unlikely case of a total fan failure or air flow blockage we have included an 70°c thermal fuse into our design, if the internal temperature exceeds 70°c the fuse will break contact shutting off the power to the heating elements.

This heater has an onboard relay and switch.

Please ensure your supplies are fused appropriately, it is recommended to use a 35a fuse and that your cable is rated higher than the fuse.

ATTENTION

• To enable safe operation of this Electric Heater, make sure you follow basic safety principles to reduce risk of personal injury, electric shock and fire.
• Do not use the Electric Heater in wet conditions.
• Always check the Electric Heater wiring & terminal connections and that the fan is not blocked before use.
• Do not open the Electric Heater if there is a fault.
• Do not leave the Electric Heater operating when unattended.
• Must not be installed with the airflow directed upwards.
