A system for providing temperature-controlled water in an aircraft has a tank, a water temperature-controlling unit, a control unit, and a power supply terminal. The water temperature-controlling unit can be coupled to the tank to heat or to cool water situated therein. The control unit is connected to the water temperature-controlling unit to activate the water temperature-controlling unit for controlling the temperature of water in the tank to a predefined temperature. The power supply terminal can be connected to an on-board voltage source for the water temperature-controlling unit and the control unit to be supplied with electrical voltage. The system is in the form of a coherent and self-contained unit which can be integrated into a standard parking place of a galley of the aircraft. The tank is mounted so as to be exchangeable or the system has a water discharge connection which is coupled to the tank.

The invention relates to a supply module (10) for conveying an operating/auxiliary agent capable of freezing for the exhaust gas aftertreatment of an internal combustion engine and for heating a reservoir holding the operating/auxiliary agent capable of freezing. The supply module (10) comprises a main heater (18) and an auxiliary heater (30), which are electrically contacted on a supporting body (24). A pot wall (52) of a heating pot (50) comprises electrical contacts (62) of the main heater (18) and electrical contacts (60) of the auxiliary heater (30).

A tankless water heater for RV includes a heat exchanger disposed in a housing with an inlet cold water line and an outlet hot water line extending outside a front side of the housing. A burner, disposed in an operative relationship with the heat exchanger, is provided for heating water flowing through the heat exchanger and an exhaust system induces is provided to move exhaust fumes out a vent duct. The tankless water heater for RV can be partially automated using a microprocessor, which can receive signals from various sensors mounted with the water heater and can send control signals to control one or more parameters.

An electric heating device includes a housing having a partition wall which separates a connection chamber from a heating chamber for dissipating heat and from which at least one receiving pocket protrudes into the heating chamber as a heating rib that may taper towards its lower closed end. A PTC heating element is received in the receiving pocket. The PTC element includes at least one PTC element and conductor tracks which energize the PTC element with different polarities which are electrically conductively connected to the PTC element, and which are electrically connected in the connection chamber. A pressure element also is received in the receiving pocket. Heat extraction surfaces of the PTC element are held in the receiving pocket abutting against oppositely disposed inner surfaces of the receiving pocket. The pressure element has at least one cambered surface segment projecting toward the inner surface or toward the PTC element.

An electric heating device includes a housing which forms a heating element receptacle and at least one fluid channel A PTC heating assembly with a press-fit profile is inserted into the heating element receptacle. The press-fit profile forms a PTC receptacle in which at least one PTC element, strip conductors abutting thereon in an electrically conductive manner and, if appropriate, an insulation supporting the strip conductors in an insulated manner against the PTC receptacle, are provided. The housing is formed from an extruded profile and is held under a pretension in the heating element receptacle by deformation projections located between the housing and the press-fit profile. The deformation projections are formed by the housing and/or the press-fit profile.

Disclosed is a vehicle-mounted gas water heater, wherein the water flow pipe comprises a water inflow section, a first heating section, a second heating section and a water outflow section, wherein the water inflow section is shortened, wherein the water inflow section is shortened, a heating section is rapidly heated directly by the combustion heating device, and the second heating section is heated by winding on the heat exchanger, so that, formation of condensed water at the water inflow section is reduced due to reduction of surface area, condensed water formed on the surface of the first heating section is rapidly evaporated, and it is difficult for condensed water to form on the surfaces of the second heating section and the outflow section.

A mobile device for services related to providing hot water, to water treatment, to cleaning of any fixed or mobile surfaces like lines for proving potable water or food liquid, that includes an internal chassis housing in a lower part a tank for recovering possible fluids and a sub-assembly for producing hot water with at least one condensing boiler associated with at least one module for supplying gas formed by a plurality of gas cylinders storing in their internal volume the gas in liquid state in the lower part and in gaseous state in the upper part, the gas cylinders being disposed in the internal chassis substantially horizontally and with an opening orifice oriented upwards so that an end of a pipe for passage of the gas opens onto a larger elongated gaseous part.
