New controllers for Espar heaters

March 12, 2012

Espar Heater Systems introduced two new controllers for its line of truck cab and engine heaters at the 2012 National Truck Equipment Assn. (NTEA) show – the Multi-Max F1000 and Digi-Max D1000.

Espar’s heaters are designed for mobile applications such as trucks, buses and light vehicles, using 12 or 24 volt battery systems, gasoline, or diesel as a power source to either heat truck cab or sleeper bunk air, or serve as coolant heaters for vehicle engines.

The new Multi-Max F1000 comes equipped with a micro SD card slot to allow fleet managers, rather than drivers, to program these hydronic engine coolant heaters with a variety of settings such as: specific daily start and stop times; high temperature disable set points; maximum manual run-time setting; and a low voltage disable set point.

The new Digi-Max D1000 controller now features a larger display screen to provide drivers with constant heater status; temperature set point with either Celsius or Fahrenheit options; runtime count-down clock; a “check heater” indicator; and more simplified diagnostic service messages.
