INTRODUCTION
MODEL: M50/M80 G-I PCM
This manual is provided to assist in troubleshooting and maintaining the
PROHEAT M-Series heater. They are designed for use on any diesel-equipped
vehicle including trucks, buses (school, transit and coach), construction
equipment, off road equipment, military equipment and cargo.
PROHEAT heaters are used for the following applications:
(1) Engine Block Heat – The PROHEAT will preheat an engine block to ensure
reliable starting in cold weather. Its’ use throughout the year will reduce
engine wear caused by cold starts.
(2) Supplemental Heat (engine running) – The PROHEAT can be used while
the vehicle is operating to provide supplemental heat for the engine
and/or passenger compartment.
(3) Cargo Heat – The PROHEAT can supply heat to individual compartments
as a stand-alone heating system, or it can provide supplemental heat to
an existing heating system.
(4) Marine – Marine applications typically involve the engineering and
installation of a complete hot-water heating system of which PROHEAT
is only one component. SeaStar Solutions recommends that only an
expert in marine hot-water heating systems install a PROHEAT for
marine applications. NOTE: It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure
that an installation complies with all applicable codes and regulations.
