Clear Answer
ZHUOHUI offers self-circulating and forced-circulation engine coolant preheater paths. The correct route depends on the engine and installation information and should be reviewed for the project.
Self-circulating path
Listed series: EHA, EHA/S, EHB and EHC.
Forced-circulation path
Listed series: EHD, EHDC and EHE.
Key Difference
| Decision area | Self-circulating route | Forced-circulation route |
|---|---|---|
| ZHUOHUI series mapping | EHA, EHA/S, EHB, EHC | EHD, EHDC, EHE |
| Selection inputs | Engine model; engine power and displacement or coolant capacity; lowest ambient temperature; voltage and phase; preferred connection size; installation space; quantity. | |
| Final selection | Human confirmation required. Neither circulation path should be presented as universally better. | |
What Project Information Affects Selection?
Engine and coolant information
Share the engine model plus engine power and displacement or coolant capacity.
Electrical supply
Confirm available voltage and phase before reviewing product options.
Installation conditions
Provide preferred connection size, available space, ambient temperature and quantity.
There is no single public threshold used here to switch every project from self-circulating to forced circulation. ZHUOHUI should review the application information.
