CENTAX™ Heater

The CENTAX™ Heater is a patented inline, non-contact heater designed to rapidly heat vehicle fluids and fuels. As the first non-contact, non-intrusive heater, it is ideal for heating oil, transmission fluid, coolant, propane, nitrogen, and hydrogen.

With its compact design and lightweight yet durable stainless steel construction, the CENTAX™ Heater can be used in any vehicle - passenger, commercial, recreational, or off-road. It is the ideal heater for applications where conventional heating technology is too bulky, inefficient, and heavy.

The CENTAX™ Heater is designed for easy installation and control. Several inlet/outlet fitting styles are available, as well as additional types of housing material.
