T100-B provides ultimate, inertia-engaged reliability for large engines up to 250 liters (15,000 CID).  Long cranking cycles, contaminated air, and improper maintenance have almost no effect on the T100.  The T100-B inertia-engaged starter is designed for your most critical applications.

The pre-engaged T100-V provides ultimate reliability for large engines up to 300 liters. Long cranking cycles, contaminated air, and improper maintenance have almost no effect on the T100-V.

TurboStartTwo isn’t just an air starter. It’s an Integral Start System that includes 1) a powerful air motor 2) built-in controls with pre-programmed safeguard logic, 3) a flow-match relay valve, 4) an electric solenoid, 5) an integral muffler, 6) both pilot air control lines/fittings, 7) a simple plug-in interface to your engine control. It even has an emergency manual bypass provision, allowing you to start just on air if need be. On a new engine, it is literally a five-minute installation.

The T30-I generates up to 25% more stall torque than other starters in its class. Its highly efficient twin-turbine motor design gives you more cranking power with less air for faster starts. Unlike starters that require a mechanical automatic trip valve (ATV), the T30 uses aerodynamics to control motor speed, giving you total control over the start cycle.

The T30-P generates up to 25% more stall torque than other starters in its class. Its highly efficient twin-turbine motor design gives you more cranking power with less air for faster starts. Unlike starters that require a mechanical automatic trip valve (ATV), the T30 uses aerodynamics to control motor speed, giving you total control over the start cycle. 


At just 121mm (4.75") diameter and less than 275mm (11") long, T25 delivers 21kW, (27hp) @ 6.2 BAR (90psig) on a 12 nozzle package. T25 redefines robust starting and reliability for small space applications.

The critical issue in optimizing the engine’s air start system is minimizing the pressure drop to the starter “in a dynamic manner” under high flow conditions. That’s exactly what TDI’s TURBOFLOW does with its high Cv factor.  It makes available more useable air pressure in the tank. This translates to greater air flow delivered to the air starter motor, even at low pressures.

Boosting Manifold Air Pressure for Engine Starts and Light Load Operation - Cold starts, light loads, and applications where frequent start-stop cycles occur often do not have enough exhaust to create required pressures within the air manifold for starting the engine. When this happens, the result is expensive downtime and significant damage to the engine or turbo chargers. TurboBoost is the industry’s most reliable air motor for providing, fast, reliable delivery of boost pressure to the air manifold.
