1.3 Oasis
®
Chinook Heating System
Features
The Oasis
®
Chinook Heating System uses a 50,000 BTU (true
output) diesel burner (12 VDC) controlled by a multi-functional
electronic controller as the primary source of heating coolant fluid
(anti-freeze and water). Two 1500 Watt, 120 VAC immersion
elements are used as secondary heat sources to provide an
additional 10,000 BTU of heat. The Oasis
®
Chinook Heating System
heats the coolant fluid to provide a source of heat for all hydronic
space heating needs. Through the use of its integral distribution
pumps, the Oasis
®
Chinook Heating System has the ability to
circulate the coolant fluid to all space heating areas. It can also
provide a supply of potable hot water using the integral heat
exchanger. The Oasis
®
also incorporates engine heat and preheat
(optional) functions. (see Figure 1-2: Oasis
®
Chinook Heating
System).
Other features of the Oasis
®
Chinook Heating System include:
·
Built in distribution pumps and heat exchanger for heating
multiple zones and also producing potable hot water. Heat
exchanger also allows engine pre-heating (optional) as well as
using engine waste heat. The Zone Board Controls up to five
space heating zones.
·
Support for potable hot water demand. The mixing valve is
factory set to limit the maximum temperature of the heated
potable water to 120ºF (49°C) with a total hot water demand of
1.5 GPM or less, and an incoming water temperature of 60ºF
(16ºC) or higher.
·
Easy to install and field serviceable with system hookups and
connections easily accessible from the top of the heater.
·
Easy to fill and purge zero pressure system.
