The engine is the source of all the powers and brings energy to modern society. The engine needs to turn over by the outside power so that it can operate under its own power. Spring starter motor is a mechanical engine starter that can effectively start a diesel engine without external power.

Firstly, we look into

What’s the engine starter

Engine starter is the device for internal combustion engines by offering initial rotation, widely used for diesel engines, aircraft, portable generators, etc.

The types of engine starter

The main Engine starter types include pneumatic starter, hydraulic starter, electric starter, spring starter.

Pneumatic

Pneumatic engine starters also known as air starters are used for diesel engines, gas turbines, and some reciprocating engines. The compressor compresses the air for storage and they rely on the compressed air as energy for starting. They have a high power-to-weight ratio and high speed acceleration.

Hydraulic

Hydraulic engine starters are suitable for marine propulsion engines, diesel engines, and hydraulic fracturing equipment for oil & gas exploration. It is a motor that uses hydraulic energy to drive a diesel flywheel ring gear to achieve the ignition of a diesel engine. It can be used extremely cold weather, offshore and explosion-proof occasions.

Electric

Electric engine starters are the traditional starter motor. They are powered by batteries and electric convert to mechanical energy for start the ring gear on the engine’s flywheel, usually used in cars, ships, construction equipment, etc.

Spring

Spring starters are the mechanical devices which can rotate hand crank energy to mechanical energy through the compressed disc springs for storage, the potential energy in the springs being released by tripping, the starter pinion rotating the engine flywheel ring gear for starting a diesel engine, mostly used in the emergency situations where the reliability is required.

At this article, we focus the importance on the mechanical starter – spring starter motor

Mechanical Engine Starter – Spring Starter Motor

The circumstances for using spring start motor

1. Extreme temperature and damp

Spring starter motor needs only hand cranking and releasing spring energy without other power consumption. Its resistance to damp and extreme temperatures makes them ideal for marine applications.

2. Non-electric

Spring starter only requires manpower, no hydraulic, pneumatic or electrical infrastructure required. Don’t need to worry the battery has no charge and can be applied for the dangerous area with the prohibition of electric start.

3. Emergency

The spring starter motor can be used as the most suitable backup starting device with the storage spring energy for the emergency like fire-fighting, rescue, marine emergency, military, etc.

How the spring starter motor works

When it needs to start a diesel engine, Pull the winding handle of the starter to make the release mechanism store in the energy for ready use. Wind the handle to turn in the prescribed direction to achieve the required storage energy and push the lever to release potential spring energy. Then the diesel engine can be started.

Feature:

  • simple to use
  • small space required
  • long-span life
  • High output torque
