Air Heaters

Description

Recirculating exhaust gas ensures vehicle engines that burn gasoline or diesel fuel do not suffer damage due to the buildup of excess pressure. Heating the recirculating air before it reaches the intake manifold for an internal combustion engine prevents ice crystals from forming and damaging the turbocharger. Littelfuse makes a blow-by heater for this purpose. Our heater consumes very little power and does not require an external thermostat. They also come in sturdy packages that allow them to withstand harsh operating conditions.
