Here's an item that's soon going to be required nationwide - and it's a good idea. Limit long idling - it saves fuel, reduces pollution, saves maintenance - there's almost no downside! For those who operate in situations where periods of extreme cold or hot weather requires heat or air conditioning to be kept on during those times, the Flight Systems Model 277 also is available with a low-cost outside temperature modifier that allows the engine to keep running when the outside temperature is colder than +45 degrees F or warmer than +80 degrees F.
During extreme conditions the engine will continue to idle, permitting the heating or cooling systems to keep running. When the ambient temperature is within the shutdown range the module will shut down the engine along with any accessories connected to the module. Unit activates countdown when parking brake is set. Benefits include conserving fuel, extended battery life, and reducing engine wear and tear.
Applications include but are not limited to:
- Delivery vans and trucks
- Off highway equipment
- Locomotives
- Industrial Applications
- Front and Wheel Loaders
- Backhoe's
- Farm equipment
- Bucket and Tow Trucks
The module will also shut down accessories such as headlights or radios with the engine to keep batteries charged.
Emissions laws are becoming more strict concerning engine idling. Several states have passed legislation requiring heavy-duty highway trucks to idle no more than 5 minutes. This cost-effective engine idle timer complies with these requirements.
