Winter Fronts - Detroit Diesel MBE 900 Operator's Manual

MBE 900 ENGINE 2007 OPERATOR'S GUIDE

Winter Fronts

A winter front may be used to improve
cab heating while idling. At least 25%
of the grill opening should remain
open in sectioned stripes that run
perpendicular to the charge air cooler
tube flow direction. This assures even
cooling across each tube and reduces
header to tube stress and possible
failure. Winter fronts should only be
used when the ambient temperature
remains below –12.2° C (10° F).
