Notes:
Start your engine easier and warm your cab faster in cold weather with this immersion heater. Heating your engine fluid keeps it from thickening and freezing, resulting in more reliable start-ups and smoother operation altogether. It also lessens the workload and extends the life of your vehicle's battery. And because starting your engine when it's warm creates less condensation in the engine block than starting it when it's cold, your engine will get better initial fuel vaporization, which causes fewer emissions and less pollution.
This immersion heater installs by screwing into your oil pan or your engine block. The power cord on the heater is removable so that you won't need to buy a whole new heater if the cord gets damaged. The cord can be routed through your grille for easy access to a 120-volt outlet or extension cord. If needed, a longer or shorter cord (sold separately) can be purchased to better fit your application. Make sure the heating element is fully submerged in the oil or coolant before plugging it in.

Jeff: Hello everybody, this is Jeff at etrailer.com. Today we're going to take a look at the Kats Heaters, 120 volt AC oil and coolant immersion heater. Now this part ensures smoother start-ups, faster heating, and even faster defrosting of your cab.Basic of this part we'll install in the freeze plug of the engine block, and submerges in either oil or coolant. The element itself is a stainless steel element. It does warm your engine fluids to increase lubrication and performance, it keeps the fluid from thickening, and it protects against damage in cold weather. It'll preheat the engine to reduce condensation in the engine block, emits less pollution and fewer gas emissions.
It does include this removable power cord right here. You can see if you unscrew this, pull it down, and sort of wiggle it out, you can see that it'll remove with this being installed in your engine block. And then what you can do is route this cord through your grill, and then plug it right into a standard 120 volt AC outlet, and then you just slide the two holes up, push it all the way in, take your nut, and then just go ahead and tighten it down all the way, securing it.And it's constructed of a durable stainless steel on the element we mentioned. It is CSA approved. This part is made in the USA.
Few specs on it. The thread size that this screws into is 25 millimeters NPT threads. The heating element length, this portion right here, is three and three quarter inches. Then a total wattage on this is 150 watts. It comes with a nice set of installation instructions that describes how to install it.But that should do it for the review on the Kats Heaters, 120 volt AC oil and coolant immersion heater..

This 3-3/4" long immersion heater submerges in your oil or engine coolant to keep your engine fluid from thickening. The result is easier start-ups, faster heating of your cab, and less wear and tear on your vehicle in cold weather.I have recently purchased this product as an experiment and not for its intended use. I purchased this product to heat oil on a small homemade quench tank. So far so good! I have not been able to get an exact temperature of the oil but it works for what I intended it to be. The slight problem was the threads. If you purchase this product for any fluids under pressure you may have to rechase the threads. I could not find any couplers to fit over the 1” NPT. Where I do not have fluids under pressure I was able to get one full turn out of the threads with no leakage.
