In the marine industry, Eberspächer is particularly well known for its line of diesel heaters. Originally designed to provide heat in the passenger compartments of cars and trucks, these devices have since conquered the world of boats as well. Innovative technology and a focus on quality are the hallmarks of Eberspächer, guaranteed by stringent function and durability tests and impeccable manufacturing processes.
Air heaters – Eberspächer
The Airtronic air heater works by drawing in fresh air and heating it before distributing it to the cabins through a piping system. This system is particularly suitable for the marine environment not only because of its low energy consumption, but especially because, by circulating warm, dry air, it helps to eliminate moisture.
The new 6 kW L and 8 kW XL versions, alongside the traditional models in the 2 to 4 kW range, now allow Airtronic to be used on larger vessels.
Water heaters
Eberspächer ‘s Hydronic brand has become a benchmark in the water heater industry. This systemallows water to be heated in a closed loop and offers the flexibility to integrate other components, such as a boiler or summer cooling system, to create complex systems. The range of power ratings available is very wide, with models ranging from 4 to 35 kW.
