What is the Chery Ant PTC?
1 Answers
Chery Ant PTC is a DC PTC heater used in electric vehicles, which is a type of ceramic heater. PTC: PTC stands for Positive-Temperature-Coefficient, referring to semiconductor materials or components with a large positive temperature coefficient. Automotive heaters first appeared in Europe in the 1940s, primarily used for preheating engines in winter and providing warmth for truck or bus cabins. Function of PTC: The PTC thermistor element features automatic temperature-controlled heating, operating in a contactless state during temperature regulation. It is typically fixed directly to the inner wall of the vaporization chamber to heat the gasoline inside, rapidly increasing the temperature. This enhances the vaporization effect of fuel combustion, not only aiding vehicle startup in low temperatures but also reducing pollution from vehicle exhaust and lowering fuel consumption.
