t-15k space heater question
 
Hey guys I just came into a t-15k space heater that needs a few parts an ignition module and igniter does any one know where to get parts for this unit. I believe they were used to heat comm shelters and tents. I cant find any information on them at all not even the manufacturer. the closest looking heater is the uh48-e looks identical.


Thanks

The two heaters have different NSNs, so it may be that the differences are more than simply who manufactured it. But of what I have seen on the one UH48E that hides out in the shed, the internal components were the same as the hunter heater used on the old 5/4 ton and the Iltis ambulance, as well as some were used on tent heater stands.

The MLVW SEV also uses a similar heater but of larger BTU. Many of the components are the same.

I have a stash of parts for the old 5/4 ton van multifuel heater. If you post some interior shots of your heater's components, I can see if they are the same.

Those parts are not looking familiar to the Hunter heater parts I am used to. The NSN for the heater is 4520-01-148-1537 and the manual you want is TM 5-4520-250-14 , however a quick google check doesn't show the manual online.

Thanks for looking Rob these units are virtualy non existent according to the internet there is really nothing published about them. I'll have to take care of the one I do have working.
