View DetailsThe Dynamic Heat Generator (DHG) is Island City Engineering's proprietary, flameless, shear-type thermal technology, originally developed to solve critical engine operational issues like over-cooled charge air and poor combustion. Utilizing the principle of mechanical energy conversion, the DHG efficiently generates controlled heat by transferring mechanical energy directly into thermal energy within a liquid medium, eliminating the need for burners or fuel injection.
This system provides significant thermal capabilities for engine pre-heating, rapid liquid heating, and process heating, with current models easily adapting to dedicated self-contained hydrostatic pump systems (HSPMS). The DHG is highly reliable and efficient, ensuring optimal engine operating temperatures for fuel efficiency, emission reduction, and continuous peak performance across diverse commercial, industrial, and military applications.
"The units are amazing, your ability to size the units so close allows us to hone in to the best efficiency of the engine, Your units are near an engine/governor."

"We are impressed, a unit just came back after 8 years in service. The units just run and run, the engine control simply turns it on when needed."
— Horby. Lui

"Offshore drilling is literal another world, when you have problems out here you are alone. Quickly you learn what you can trust for products and materials. We have high confidents in the DHG’s because they simply run without problems."

Engineered for high-mobility vehicles, our UHP system delivers water at extremely high pressures with low flow rates, maximizing water efficiency and extinguishing speed for specialized hazards.
The CTIS is a ruggedized solution allowing drivers to instantaneously raise or lower tire pressure from the cab, ensuring maximum vehicle mobility on pavement, sand, mud, and uneven terrain.
The FAST II Trailer is a highly mobile, tandem-axle logistics platform engineered for demanding terrain and high-speed operation alongside emerging high-mobility logistic trucks. Its modular tube chassis and full independent swing-axle suspension ensure superior articulation and payload stability across the roughest environments.
Primary mission capabilities include supply and transport using standard 20-foot ISO containers, CROP, and M1077 flatrack payloads. The unit is fitted with a demountable deck, making it highly adaptable for general cargo and vehicle recovery missions.
