IOM216300-000 IDENTIFYING YOUR SYSTEM The HOTSTART heating system is designed to heat fluids for use in marine propulsion, diesel-powered generator sets, locomotives, gas compression or any large-engine applications. The system is pre-wired, pre-plumbed and assembled on steel plate. Each heating system has an identification plate which includes the part number and serial number.

HOTSTART recommends that a power switch or Combustion hazard: To prevent ignition of flammable circuit breaker be located near the heating system or combustible atmospheres, disconnect power before for safety and ease of use.
OVERVIEW WARNING System location classification: Before installing the OSE heating system, ensure all system components are suitable for the intended installation location by referring to the location classification labeling attached to the individual system components. HEATING SYSTEM COMPONENTS NOTE: Component illustrations are for reference only and are not to scale. See part drawings for dimensions and specifications.
OPERATION OVERVIEW The OSE heating system is intended to maintain optimal oil temperature while the engine or compressor is shut down. The heating system may be activated locally or by optional remote control (see SECTION 2.5.2). The OSE heating system must be deactivated upon engine or compressor start-up.
If the pump is installed above the minimum oil level, a check valve must be installed. Isolation valves: Hotstart recommends installing full-flow ball valves to isolate the heating system in order to perform service on the system or engine without draining the oil.
OIL PLUMBING INSTALLATION 2.1.2 OIL RETURN 2.1.1 OIL SUPPLY When installing the OSE oil return line, refer to the following Hotstart guidelines: Installing a short, straight oil supply line with a minimum • of flow restriction is the most important step toward At a minimum, size the oil return line per the ensuring heating system longevity.
