Spring starter will provide mechanical starting when the battery of electric starter lacks power, which makes emergency/auxiliary generator sets more reliable to meet the requirements of firefighting, emergency rescue, military, marine, or some other harsh environments. The units of energy input, storage, transfer, and release are integrated into one spring starter assy. Requiring no external systems, the spring starter is a little larger than an electric starter. It only needs manpower to wind the input adaptor by winding handle, and the springs inside will be compressed to store energy. By pulling the trip lever, energy will be released to turn the engine flywheel. Then the engine gets started. 

Advantages Of Spring starter

Self-contained unit (Unlike air/pneumatic or hydraulic starter, spring starter requires no external systems as air compressor, air tank, tube, etc. )

Cost-effective (the price of a spring starter is much lower than that of air/pneumatic or hydraulic starter system)

Maintenance-free (advanced solid grease, no need for maintenance)

Mechanism (Spring starter only needs manpower to wind the input adaptor by winding handle, and the springs inside will be compressed to store energy. By pulling the trip lever, energy will be released to turn the engine flywheel. There is no pollution when operating.)

Anti-explosion (pre-engaged pinion, natural anti-explosion structure, suits any spark sensitive application )

Hand-barring (Spring starter has turning gear for hand barring which makes daily maintenance more convenient)

Waterproof, oil-proof, salty mist proof (Spring starter is corrosion resistance with a baking varnish finish and mechanical components)

High/low-temperature resistance (The environment’s temperature has little influence on a mechanical device.)

Easy to install (Standard SAE mounting face, using several bolts to install spring starter on the engine.)

Uncomplicated operation procedures (One operation circle will cost 30 seconds, 10 seconds for a small engine.)

No liquid grease, no magnetism (Spring starter meets the safety requirements of air transportation, having no influence on other devices.)

How to configure the spring starter?

1. Most engines have two bores (multi-bores) in the flywheel housing, which is available for dual starter applications. In this case, a micro-lock switch must be connected to the circuit of the electric starter in order to protect the spring starter.

2. If the engine has only one bore in the flywheel housing, the spring starter can be used as a primary starter or back up starter.
