Vane Air Starters (SS Series)
SS Series vane air starters are robust and mechanically simple starting solutions for medium and large diesel and gas engines. Vane technology has been proven for decades in applications requiring high starting torque, durability, and reliable operation in harsh and demanding environments.
SS series starters use a vane motor design where compressed air drives a rotor with sliding vanes, delivering strong and consistent torque from the initial start-up phase. This construction offers excellent resistance to moisture, dust, vibration, and temperature variations, ensuring reliable performance over long service life.
SS series vane air starters are ideally suited for applications where electric starting is impractical or unsafe, including hazardous areas, marine installations, heavy industry, and power generation. Their simple and rugged design allows frequent and repeatable starts with minimal maintenance requirements.
Why choose SS Series vane air starters?
- Simple and rugged construction for long-term reliability
- High starting torque for high-compression engines
- Excellent performance in harsh environments
- Safe alternative to electric starting systems
