Trying to identify

I am having problems identifying this system. I googled the name on it and came up empty. I was planning on remodeling my bedroom area to fit at least a double bed but this system shows up on the side I wanted to remove Ghent other side contains my fresh water tank and all of the plumbing inlets.

So what is the name? Is there a model #? It resembles a remote power vent.

Can't see it completely in that photo, but it looks like it has inlet and outlet hose and received 12v power. And something taped to the outside that is mostly hidden. Appears to be a pump of some kind. What do those hoses go to/from? They look small for air, but could be water or hydraulic fluid.

Some further clues would help as well. What is the name on the side? And what/year/make/model of RV is it.

OP's profile indicates a 1983 Holiday Rambler Imperial, 33-foot.

Is it a heater? Almost looks like a heater core across the bottom of the picture. Would a duct hook up on the upper right (as seen in the picture) side?

Better pics and more info would help.

Based on the size of the hoses going in and out, I'd say it is a fuel pump of some sort - maybe for the generator? I wouldn't want one inside of my coach, but there's no telling what could have been done to a unit that old.

Mgreg-

Could you share the name that you took off the unit? Can you see where the hoses go?

The two-pin electrical connector is "standard" HR.

It looks to me like an electric actuator.

A little google image searching found a thread with a photobucket photo that had this description:

"As for that strange looking thing under the bed, it is a rear heater that uses cooling fluid from the motor radiator."

thanks for the help i used tineye and got nothing. I was guessing it was some kind of heater as the hoses are not the same used for fuel lines.

I wasn't descriptive enough in my post at least now I know I can remove it or relocate it to a different place. Not even sure it works when I turn on the auxiliary heat nothing happens with it.

And I have no blown fuses in my 12 volt system.

Not even sure how to turn it on.
