DELTA I / II / III / IV Diesel Aircraft Heater
Diesel-engine-powered aircraft heaters for narrow-body, wide-body and jumbo jets on remote stands.
The DELTA I–IV are diesel-engine-powered heaters with a high-pressure fuel burner, built to heat narrow-body, wide-body and jumbo-jet aircraft in the very coldest conditions and on stands where no electric power is available. A stainless-steel closed-flame heat exchanger delivers over 90% efficiency, and a large fuel tank supports more than 15 hours of overnight heating. Built from galvanised steel, aluminium and stainless steel for corrosion resistance, the units use a Deutz diesel engine with locally available spares and carry a 5-year heat-exchanger warranty.
