//TMW15QD High Torque Air Turbine Starter For Large Engines & Generators

TMW15QD High Torque Air Turbine Starter For Large Engines & Generators

TMW15QD Air turbine starters have the prominent advantages of their compact size and power-to-weight ratio, that weighs only one-third as much as an electric starter capable of producing the same torque. Developed as an easy to install, fit-and-forget solution, TMW15QD air turbine starters deliver smooth operating performance and durability. With the overhung pre-engaged design, and manufactured by rugged cast iron and high-grade aluminum components, TMW15QD air turbine starters are highly resistant to corrosion, which makes them ideal for starting diesel engines, gas engines, and generators for marine and offshore applications.

  • Max Rated Power: 50 kW (67 HP) at 1.0 Mpa (145 psi)

  • Air Consumption at Max. Power: 560 L/s

  • Working Pressure: 0.4 – 1.0 Mpa (58 – 145 psi)

  • Highly-resistant to corrosion with rugged cast iron construction.

  • Smooth pre-engagement for limited gear wear and prevent collisional sparks.

  • Continuous even air volume is required to achieve adequate power & torques.
    (Not like the vane type air starter that generates very high starting torques)

  • Customization & OEM branding are available on discussion about the actual requirements.

 

Description

Pneumatic Turbine Starters Installation Guide

1.When installing and fixing the air turbine motor to the bracket of diesel engines, please note:

  • Keep 3-5 mm distance between output gears and flywheel gears;
  • Keep space of the side-gears within 0.6-1 mm;

2. The drive part and output part of the motor could be adjusted accordingly so as to fit the requirements of different diesel engines.

3. When installing pipelines system, please first clear containments in all pipelines, then fill certain engine oil from motor air-inlet, and at last install the pipelines according to system diagram.

4. During repairment and maintenance, it should be kept clean on site without containments or dust entering pipelines and turbine motor.
