Features
- Propeller Based Air Propulsion
- The PDP175 uses a propeller for air movement. This keeps the depth of the unit heater to a minimum, maximizing possible installation points, as well as passing along significant cost savings.
- Aluminized Steel Heat Exchanger
- The aluminized steel heat exchanger passes lower manufacturing costs along to the consumer, is incredibly durable and is protected by a full 10 year warranty by Modine.
- Electric Knockouts
- Electric wiring knockouts and field wiring connections on the PDP175 keep installation costs low and save time during both installation and maintenance for your contractor by simplifying all required electrical work.
- Ignition Controller
- The ignition controller is designed with safety in mind and features built in ignition attempt timers. This minimizes the chance of false starts and prevents unnecessary gas from being used during the ignition process.
- Permanently Lubricated Motor
- The motor on the PDP175 has a permanent, effective lubricant straight from the factory. This means that the motor never has to be oiled, reducing maintenance costs, general wear and tear, and operational noise.
- Power Venting System
- The power venting system quickly and efficiently brings flue exhaust from the unit heater to the outdoors and requires minimal installation labor. This keeps installation related costs as low as possible.
- Baked Polyester Paint
- The PDP175 features a neutral colored baked on polyester paint, providing excellent corrosion resistance and durability while blending in with a wide variety of environments.
- Modine Installation
- Installation by a professional installer is required by the manufacturer.
Modine brings its engineering experience to large capacity applications with the PDP unit heater line. The PDP175 is a large unit heater purpose-built for commercial and industrial applications. With 175,000 BTU/hour of heating power, the PDP175 can fulfill a wide variety of heating needs from workshops to warehouses.
