Pitot heater element

[MD83driver]

Merry Christmas to me, I am still interested. Thanks

Thanks for doing this, I love to see a new resource for our Skymasters! That said, will this be legal to install on a Part 135 operated 337?

When I get the PMA approval it will be. I should be sending the data package to FAA engineering this week, then it’s wait time and back and forth with them.

I am having 100 units made and I do expect my first five evaluation units in about 14 days. The balance of 95 units will follow.

Pricing will be in the 250-300 dollar range. Those that want to do the owner produced part scenario can get them rather quickly.

Dan,

I am definitely interested ASAP. Please let me know when you have them available and what you need from me.

Thanks,

“2!”

I’m up for the owner-produced route.

[patrolpilot]

I'm in for either.

[LostKiwi]

I'll definitely take one!

Happy to go the "owner produced" route.

First five units arrive today, will post some pics and more info over the weekend after I evaluate them.

Dan,

That is exactly what I need. Let me know how to order it.

Thanks,

For those that would like to go the owner produced parts please PM me with your email and I will provide you with the specifics for ordering.

I have ran the heater for 3.5 hours continuously last week in the hangar without any problems. I will have 3 units that should be able to ship by the end of the month. The unit in the circuit with the thermostat pulls 2.3 amps.

The kit will include, heater unit, Cessna style single wire connectors and pins for the power wire and the ground wire, push on connectors to connect to the thermo disk, two #50 drill bits for alignment and installation, tube of high temp RTV, 4 ty-raps, and installation instructions. A requirement will be that the installation be checked with an external power supply to verify that the thermostat (thermo disk) is working properly. And a word of caution, Do not power the heater until the installation is complete in the strut fairing.

As a note, you did well with the amp draw! For those of you without the Maintenance Manual, I have the '74 through '80; my '77 G is 4.3 amps! '74 through '76 is 2.2 (close enough), the '78 is 2.9, and the '79 & '80 is back to 2.2. Well done, Dan!

For those interested, I also will have new thermostat's available. 39 plus shipping.
