🏕️ MADE FOR COLD NIGHTS AWAY FROM HOME

Cold weather can quickly take the comfort out of a camping or touring trip. A compact diesel heater provides a practical way to create warm air without relying entirely on powered caravan parks or 240V heating appliances.

The Power Science Portable Diesel Heater is suited to applications such as:

  • 🏕️ Camping setups
  • 🚐 Caravans
  • 🚙 Touring vehicles
  • ⛺ Suitable tent or annex heating arrangements using correctly routed warm-air ducting
  • 🛠️ Outdoor work areas
  • 🏡 Temporary outdoor heating applications
  • 🌄 Remote-area touring

Because the unit is portable, it can be moved between compatible setups instead of being permanently installed in a single vehicle or caravan.


⚠️ CRITICAL DIESEL HEATER SAFETY

⚠️ IMPORTANT: A diesel heater burns fuel and produces exhaust gases containing carbon monoxide. The combustion unit and exhaust outlet must never be operated in an enclosed occupied space where exhaust gases could accumulate.

The heater should be positioned in a stable, appropriately ventilated location with the exhaust directed safely away from people, doors, windows, vents, tents, caravans and other occupied areas.

For enclosed accommodation, the safe approach is to keep the combustion heater and exhaust arrangement outside the occupied area and duct only the heated clean-air output into the space, unless the manufacturer's approved installation instructions specifically provide another safe configuration.

⚠️ Never place the exhaust outlet inside a caravan, tent, vehicle, annex or other occupied enclosure.

⚠️ A working carbon-monoxide alarm is strongly recommended wherever fuel-burning heating equipment is used near sleeping or occupied areas.


⛽ INTEGRATED 5L DIESEL TANK

The built-in 5 litre diesel tank helps keep the heater compact and self-contained.

There is no need to position and connect a separate fuel tank for normal portable operation.

For best operation, use clean diesel fuel and keep contaminants, water and debris out of the tank.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Allow the heater to cool before refuelling. Do not refuel while the heater is operating or while hot, and do not overfill the fuel tank.


🔥 2KW HEATING OUTPUT

The heater provides a stated maximum output of 2kW, delivering a substantial amount of heat from a compact portable package.

A 2kW heater can be particularly useful in smaller caravans, campers and camping areas where an oversized heater may make temperature regulation difficult.

Actual heating performance will depend on factors including:

  • Outside temperature
  • Size of the area being heated
  • Insulation
  • Ventilation
  • Warm-air duct length and routing
  • Heater operating setting

📱 SMARTPHONE, LCD & REMOTE CONTROL

The heater provides multiple control options for convenient operation.

The supplied package includes an LCD digital controller and remote control, while the supplied product description also lists smartphone control.

This allows users to adjust compatible heater functions without relying solely on controls mounted directly on the unit.


🔌 DC POWER – IDEAL FOR AUXILIARY BATTERY SYSTEMS

The heater is designed around low-voltage DC operation, making it suitable for compatible vehicle and caravan auxiliary-battery systems.

Diesel provides the primary source of heat, while electrical power is required for components such as the glow plug, fuel pump, fan and electronic controls.

🚀 QUICK START GUIDE

1. Position the Heater

Place the unit on a flat, secure and stable surface in a well-ventilated location.

Ensure the heater cannot tip over or move during operation.

Position the exhaust outlet where combustion gases cannot enter an occupied area.

2. Connect the DC Power Supply

Connect the heater to the correct DC power supply using the supplied fused power lead.

Observe correct polarity:

  • 🔴 Red – Positive (+)
  • ⚫ Black – Negative (-)

3. Add Diesel Fuel

Fill the integrated tank with clean diesel fuel.

Do not overfill the tank and ensure the fuel cap is securely tightened.

4. Prime the Fuel System – First Use

The supplied instructions state to press and hold the ON button for several seconds to initiate fuel priming.

Allow fuel to reach the combustion system before attempting normal startup.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Follow the supplied heater manual for the correct priming procedure. Excessive priming can introduce too much fuel into the combustion chamber.

5. Start the Heater

Press the power button on the LCD controller or use the supplied remote control.

Adjust compatible temperature or heating-power settings as required.

The heater will then perform its normal ignition sequence.

6. Shut Down Correctly

Turn the heater off using the controller or approved control method.

The heater will perform a cool-down cycle to protect the system.

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Do not disconnect electrical power while the heater is performing its shutdown and cool-down cycle. Removing power prematurely can prevent proper cooling and may damage the heater.


🛡️ SAFE POSITIONING CHECKLIST

Before operating the heater:

  • Position it on a flat and stable surface
  • Keep the combustion unit in an appropriately ventilated location
  • Direct the exhaust away from occupied areas
  • Keep the exhaust away from doors, windows and ventilation openings
  • Keep hot exhaust components away from combustible materials
  • Ensure the hot-air outlet is not obstructed
  • Keep the combustion air intake unobstructed
  • Check the fuel system for leaks before operation
  • Use the correct DC supply voltage
  • Maintain correct electrical polarity
  • Do not disconnect power during the cool-down cycle
  • Allow the heater to cool before packing away or refuelling

🏕️ WHY CHOOSE A PORTABLE DIESEL HEATER?

A portable heater provides greater flexibility than a permanently installed diesel heating system.

It can be particularly useful for users who:

  • Use more than one camping setup
  • Do not want to permanently modify their caravan or vehicle
  • Need seasonal heating rather than year-round installation
  • Want the heater stored away when not required
  • Need a compact heating solution for touring
  • Want a self-contained fuel tank and heater assembly

The compact design makes it possible to transport the unit as part of your camping equipment and set it up when temperatures drop.


⛽ EFFICIENT DIESEL HEATING

Diesel air heaters generate heat by burning small quantities of diesel while using DC electrical power to run the operating electronics, fuel pump and fans.

This makes them attractive for off-grid touring where diesel fuel and battery power are readily available.

The supplied product information describes this heater as providing high efficiency and low fuel consumption.


🔋 BATTERY POWER CONSIDERATIONS

Although diesel provides the heat energy, the heater still requires a dependable DC electrical supply throughout startup, operation and shutdown.

Your battery system must be capable of maintaining sufficient voltage during the initial glow-plug startup period.

Poor connections, undersized cables, flat batteries or excessive cable length can result in voltage drop and unreliable heater operation.

⚠️ Do not switch the battery isolator off immediately after turning the heater off. Allow the complete automatic cool-down cycle to finish first.
