Overview
A relay kit may be necessary when
installing a Racor heater due to
power demand. Standard OE fuses,
wiring and alternator may be unable
to carry the load without overheating
or potential shorting, creating a
serious condition.
Racor relay kit’s provide higher
amperage power to the Racor heater
using the relay as an independent
‘switch’. The relay coil is energized
either from a manual toggle switch
or by means of activation, such as a
thermostat.
Note: Ensure the electrical supply
system can support the power
demands of the fuel heater
(and other accessories) prior to
installation.
