Autoterm Diesel Air Heater 24Volt 2kW Kit With Digital Controller - 2D24Pu27
The AUTOTERM 2D is the most compact heater model in the product line.
The AUTOTERM 2D heater is intended for use in any kind of means of land transport (for example, low truck cabs, commercial vehicle cabs or cargo compartment), as well as on boats (up to 33 feet/10 m long) and on the premises.
Capacity of the air heater AUTOTERM 2D is between 0.8 kW and 2 kW, and it is capable to heat up 75 m3 of air hourly, furthermore, maintaining excellent economy and consuming between 0.1 l and 0.24 l diesel per hour.
The main advantages of AUTOTERM heaters are stable operation at very low temperatures, inductive (brushless) electric motors designed for uninterrupted operation for 12,000 hours, as well as low fuel consumption and reasonable price. Our heaters have proved their excellent quality, working in aggressive environments, such as, for example, the marine environment and careers. Our heaters have a single European guarantee and civil liability is insured.
Heater AUTOTERM 2D may be controlled both by the standard control panel (PU-5) and standard alarm system (provided there is a free control channel), as well as by modem (available separately), supporting control via call/sms, and by a smartphone application, which is available both in the operating system Android, and IOS (application Autoterm Control).
Just like all the other Autoterm heaters, the heater AUTOTERM 2D is also delivered with full assembly set including: air supply pipe with 80 cm long silencer, silencer of exhaust gases, 1 m long discharge pipe of exhaust gases with 30 cm long insulation, 5.5 meters long polyamide fuel pipe, fuel collector in the fuel tank, digital control panel (PU-5), cables, rings, bolts etc.
Autoterm offered AUTOTERM Air series air heaters are independent, diesel powered heating systems that can be easily and conveniently installed or retrofitted in your vehicle.
The heater unit is supplied with fresh air from outside or well ventilated air from the room, which is taken through an air intake pipe to the internal combustion chamber. The received air is then mixed with the fuel, which is delivered through a metering fuel pump, and the air-fuel mixture is formed. This mixture is then ignited by a glow plug, which initiates the burning process to heat up the heat exchanger. Air is then drawn from the air inlet with a fan and passed through heat exchangers and the radiator fins. Finally, the heated air is pushed through the hot air outlet.
AUTOTERM Air series air heaters are excellent products for spaces which need to be heated quickly, or where there is no built in central heating system. For example: campers, boats, cabins. Etc.
All heaters are equipped with built in fail-safe systems and sensors. The self-diagnostic system will automatically shut down the heater if it encounters any errors (such as battery drain, over-heating of the heater, low fuel level, air pump malfunction, or flame failure) and is thus a completely safe product.
All AUTOTERM Air series heaters are equipped with brushless induction motors that ensure low noise levels as well as a long lifetime for your device, and the capability to operate in extreme environments as low as -45°C/-49°F.
AUTOTERM Air series heaters can be controlled with various control panels or remotely via your iOS or Android smartphone (remote control modem sold separately).

Q & A
-
Can I install my diesel heater under the bed?
Yes, you can. Just note that there will be some noise due to the intake of the heater as well as a ticking sound from the fuel pump. Therefore, it is probably best to install the heater away from the bedroom.
-
How does the size of the area to be heated affect which diesel heater to purchase?
A larger area might require a twin outlet or a more powerful heater.
- A 2kW diesel heater will be sufficient for a vehicle around 4-6 metres
- If the layout affect the heat flow or the area is a bit larger, a twin outlet is recommended
- With a large motorhome or fifth wheeler, it is best to opt for a 4kW diesel heater
-
Does the diesel heater come with a fuel tank?
No, a fuel tank is not included with the purchase of a diesel heater. You will need to add a fuel tank to your order. However, if the vehicle runs on diesel, you will be able to plumb into the vehicle's fuel tank.
-
Can I use biodiesel or kerosene to fuel the diesel heater?
No, it is recommended that you only use high grade diesel, and not biodiesel or kerosene.
-
What is the difference between the rotary and digital controllers for diesel heaters?
- Rotary controllers do not have a thermostat and consist of a dial that is based on feel and you will need to turn it up or down until you are satisfied with the temperature. The heat will remain constant once set to a specific dial position.
- Digital controllers have a thermostat and you are able to digitally select a temperature. These controllers also have a timer that can be set if you only want to run the heater for a certain amount of time.
- It is recommended the digital controller be installed at waist height as a result of heat rising. It will reach its temperature too soon if installed too high or will have to work too hard if the thermostat is too low.
-
Should I buy a gas or diesel heater?
It depends on your personal requirements. Please see the pros and cons of both below:
Gas
- Pros

- Purchase cost is lower than a diesel heater
- Noise is lower than diesel heater
- Cons
- A number of regulatory requirements apply for installation: a gas heater flue cannot be installed too close to a window, door or other gas appliance inlet or outlet, or under an enclosed annex
- A licensed gas fitter is required to connect the gas heater and provide a compliance certificate
- In temperatures of two degrees and under, the heater won�t function
- Produces a wet heat resulting in unwanted humidity and condensation
Diesel
- Pros
- You don�t need a licence for installation
- Superior heating performance compared to a gas heater
- Produces a clean dry heat as opposed to the wet heat produced by a gas heater
- Cons
- More expensive to buy than a gas heater
- Generally noisier than a gas heater
