The Autoterm Flow 5 (formerly the Binar 5S) is a powerful and compact 5kW diesel liquid heater designed to provide efficient hydronic heating for boats and vehicles. It is an ideal solution for owners looking to heat their domestic water, run a series of radiators, or pre-heat an engine in cold marine environments.
Autoterm Flow 5: Advanced Hydronic Heating
With a robust 5kW heat output, the Flow 5 circulates heated coolant through a closed-loop system. This versatility allows it to serve multiple functions simultaneously:
- Domestic Hot Water: By connecting to a calorifier, it provides a reliable supply of hot water for showers and galleys.
- Central Heating: It can power a network of radiators or blower boxes to ensure even warmth throughout the vessel.
- Engine Pre-heating: In extreme conditions, it can be used to warm the engine block, reducing wear and ensuring a smooth start.
The Flow 5 is renowned for its exceptional build quality, low fuel consumption, and quiet operation. The basic kit includes high-quality components such as a silent fuel pump, air intake silencer, and a mounting bracket with shock absorbers to minimise vibration.
