We’re excited to introduce our newly designed solid-state thermostats.
These are now being integrated into our Peregrine thermosiphon engine preheaters.
Engineered to overcome the leading cause of mechanical thermostat failures, engine vibration.
Our innovative thermostats offer enhanced performance and durability in even the most demanding environments, offering more efficient, reliable, and an environmentally-friendly solution.
Thermosiphon engine preheaters are devices used to preheat engines before starting, ensuring that engines are warmed up to the right operating temperature, even in the coldest conditions. This process is crucial for reducing engine wear, improving fuel efficiency, and minimising emissions during cold starts.
Traditionally, these preheaters have relied on mechanical thermostats to regulate temperature. However, with the introduction of our solid-state thermostats, there is a significant upgrade in terms of precision, reliability, and energy efficiency.
The Advantages of Solid State Thermostats
Solid-state thermostats are electronic devices that do not contain any components sensitive to vibration, making them more durable. In contrast, mechanical thermostats, which have a biometric design, are sensitive to vibration, which can shorten their lifespan.
This absence of moving components results in several benefits:
1. Enhanced Reliability: Solid state thermostats are less prone to failure, as they eliminate the mechanical wear and tear associated with traditional thermostats. This reliability is critical in maintaining consistent preheating operations, especially in harsh conditions.
2. Improved Precision: These thermostats offer highly accurate temperature control, ensuring that engines are heated to the exact required temperature, thereby optimising performance and reducing unnecessary energy consumption.
3. Energy Efficiency: With better precision comes enhanced energy efficiency. Solid-state thermostats reduce the risk of overheating and the corresponding waste of energy, leading to lower operational costs and a smaller environmental footprint.
4. Durability: Built to withstand extreme temperatures and conditions, solid-state thermostats offer longevity that surpasses that of conventional thermostats. This durability makes them ideal for use in challenging environments where engine reliability is paramount.
Solid-state thermostats are set to become a standard in the industry. This means more reliable engine start-ups, reduced maintenance costs, and a greater commitment to energy efficiency and environmental responsibility.
Why choose Preheat’s new solid state thermostat
Key Advantages of Our Solid-State Thermostats:
