Dantherm VA-M15 MKII – tent heater
The VA-M1 5MKII is a transportable unit that provides heating in tents or temporary, transportable buildings. The unit has been developed in close cooperation with the armed forces of NATO countries and is designed to be placed outside the tent, with supply and return air ducted to the tent.
The heater is based on the in-direct fired (clean air) principle to avoid introducing combustion or fumes into occupied spaces. The forced air system provides for the most rapid warm-up capability. The heater is essentially self-contained, requiring only a source of external electric power and fuel. The unit runs effectively on almost all diesel fuels. These are supplied by the fuel hose assembly which may be connected to external jerry cans or drums.
