TurboTwin -Â Model T50 Series -Turbine Air Starters
The TurboTwin T50 Turbine air starters are the lightest, most compact starters for diesel engines up to 70 liters. The T50 starter delivers 40 hp of cranking power at 120 psig for starting medium size gas and diesel engines. At only 34 lbs. (15.4 kg) and 5.76 in. (146 mm) in diameter, its size-to-power ratio sets the industry standard. The T50`s innovative design delivers over 25% more torque and power than competitive models per unit volume of air.
It`s easily the quietest starter in its class. Refinements to the TurboTwin™ design have reduced noise levels below standards previously thought to be unattainable in air starters. Additional design refinements have further reduced the number of contact parts which will yield even longer life and provide maintenance free operation. The T50`s turbine motor has no rubbing vanes to stick, swell, or wear out. Dirty, wet air has no effect on internal parts. Contaminated air that clogs, damages and shuts down other starters passes through the T50`s open air path design.
The T50 uses only high-quality, high-strength steel and aluminum alloys machined to the industry`s tightest tolerances. There`s no cutting corners, and definitely no plastic parts as used in other turbine air starters. The T50 gearbox is grease-packed for life. There is no need to add starter lubrication and there are no fugitive exhaust emissions. Cleaner operations means greater workplace safety.
