Idle Reduction and Fluid Warming

Fuel-fired systems

Fluid Warmer

Cold weather causes fuels and hydraulic fluids in heavy-duty equipment to thicken and become sluggish. This can cause issues like pump cavitation, blown seals, and a longer startup time. Eventually, as the equipment works harder to pump fuel and fluids, the system begins to break down and significantly reduces the lifespan of the equipment. This leads to more downtime for companies and costly repairs or replacements.

The solution? Fluid Warmers, also known as hydraulic fluid and oil heaters or immersion heaters. Our hydraulic heaters can be installed into reservoirs or tanks, regardless of the size or design as they can be customized to fit.

Fluid Warmers help increase company’s productivity

Cold hydraulic fluid has a higher viscosity, which leads to inefficient flow rates and poor equipment performance. Fuels and fluids need to be maintained at the desired temperature so that they can pump more freely within the system. Without a vehicle fluid warmer, heavy-duty equipment and on-highway vehicles cannot operate at optimal levels.

Fluid Warmers are designed to be directly installed in a hydraulic tank or reservoir to keep the fluids warm. The result:

• Quicker start-up times with no need to wait for the equipment to warm up.
• The equipment performs better with fluids being pumped efficiently.
• Reduced risk of equipment breakdown or failure, preventing downtime and loss of productivity.
• Helps preserve the lifespan of the equipment’s system and reduces the need for maintenance.

Protect your equipment and keep your operations running

Fluid Warmers are an essential product when you work in a cold environment. Keep hydraulic fluid, fuels, and fluids that can’t freeze at the ideal temperature and avoid loss of production. Contact us today to order Fluid Warmers or inquire about a custom solution for your mobile heating needs.
