RigMaster has announced an array of new features and product enhancements for its 2007 model APU. The company says the most significant enhancements are centered on a new microprocessor controller, which features a large LCD display, one-touch stop/start and climate control, and single-tier access to all menu features. The new controller also offers the user the option to display information in standard or metric, as well as improved engine monitoring, including a low coolant sensor and adjustable voltage battery monitoring.

Another new feature is an in-cab 20-amp GFI breaker accessible to the driver in case of an overloaded fuse. In addition, the RigMaster APU’s AutoStart feature will become standard on all ’07 models; AutoStart includes timed- and climate-control automatic start mode, and low-battery startup to ensure cold weather starts.

RigMaster also has announced a 1,000-hour oil change interval for all ’07 model units; the extended interval also applies to some later-model 2006 RMP-14-6 units equipped with the larger 3-quart oil pan, as well as all units powered by the Caterpillar C0.5 engine.
