| boot 2009: Webasto presents its innovative control unit alongside product highlights in roofing, heating, and cooling systems |
|
Stockdorf/Munich/Düsseldorf - 17.01.2009 - Webasto is presenting an array of new products at the boot exhibition in Düsseldorf, taking place from January 17 – 25, 2009. The true product highlight will be the newly developed BlueComfort Control Pad, which the Stockdorf company will be presenting in Germany for the first time. The control panel gives boat owners the opportunity to separately control the climate in each individual cabin from one central point. Webasto’s stand will also feature roof systems that can convert marine roofs into panoramic roofs through the installation of an additional glass or acrylic panel. Its heating and cooling solutions will be on board at the boot as well: Webasto hall 11, stand A19.
Everything under control
The BlueComfort ControlPad offers central control of heating and air conditioning systems for boats with several cabins. It features a color touch screen and comprehensive diagnostic functions, providing complete access to all system information. The control panel also offers a number of digital and analog ports for CAN busses or Ethernet connections. It is compatible with all of Webasto’s BlueCool Premium air conditioners. Its IP-compliant, waterproof design (front panel in accordance with IP67; housing in accordance with IP66) and a display screen that can even be read in bright sunlight accommodate operating conditions at sea. The modern control unit only weighs 1.9 kilograms and requires a mere 1-amp, 24-volt power supply.
Complete overview
Webasto’s roof systems will also be a real “eye-catcher”. The installation of an additional panel allows a Webasto Marine Roof to be upgraded to a panoramic roof. The panel, which is mounted between the guide rails of the sliding roof, is available in glass or acrylic. Even in the smallest roof version the transparent roof area is doubled in size through the installation of the panel. The new development enhances the already existing roof portfolio that Webasto has been distributing under the Hollandia brand name. Under the new name Webasto Marine Roof, Webasto offers three different roof platforms to accommodate customer wishes in regard to size and design: the 60 Series, 80 Series, and the 150 Series. The roofs offer a high level of operational comfort and the durability that is indispensible for use at sea.
Complete program
Webasto will be showing its time-tested heating systems in Düsseldorf as well. This includes the newly redeveloped AirTop Evo series, now offering several different heating options. In addition to normal operation, the cabin can also be heated in the “ECO” energy-saving mode, or with the “PLUS” power-boost function. The AirTop Evo heaters are small, lightweight, and easy to install. They also consume very little energy, minimizing the strain on on-board electricity.
Webasto will also be showing its BlueHeat, BlueCool, and BlueComfort heating and air conditioning systems at boot.
