Oil pre-heating units for internal combustion engines

The T START oil pre-heating units are self-contained systems designed to preheat engine oil and for oil temperature maintenance with a precision of ±2 °C. Serving air compressors, engines, and heavy machinery, they protect equipment from the issues associated with engine cold start, thereby extending the machine’s service life.

These T START package units are used as oil preheater for compressors and internal combustion engines, as well as to prevent cold starts in vegetable-oil-fueled cogeneration plants, thereby improving the efficiency of the combined power generation cycle.

Tempco’s oil preheating units offer a wide range of applications and ensure engine oil temperature maintenance with a precision of ±2 °C, for working temperatures up to 90 °C. The fluids employed include engine oil, glycol, and hydraulic oil. Designed for installation in extremely demanding operating environments and to withstand continuous workloads, they are available in both enclosed and ‘on-board’ versions—the latter being ready to be directly embedded into operating machinery.

Standard features of T START oil pre-heating units:

• operating temperature precision: ±2 °C
• centrifugal recirculation pump
• high-temperature safety thermostat
• stainless steel armed heater
• flow monitoring
• integrated bypass

Upon request, the oil preheating units can also be supplied with ATEX certification and a standby pump.
