A Spring starter is a device that gives the diesel engine hand-cranked mechanical energy storage start function. The mechanical energy, which is rotated many times by manpower, is stored with spring as a medium and released at one time to start a larger engine. It is the best starting solution for “black start” or “paralyzed boat start”.
How Does a Spring Starter Come Out?
The spring energy storage starting of the spring starter is particularly suitable for the engine under emergency environmental conditions, and the engine can be started only by manpower. Due to the emergency environment of the engine, its battery often encounters the situation of battery shortage due to long-term storage, resulting in insufficient starting ability of the electric motor, making the entire engine system unable to start and running successfully. This is a very dangerous case in an emergency environment, that’s the birth time of a spring starter, and it helps to mitigate the extent of the dilemma and protect the environment.
Features of Spring Starter:
- The system is highly integrated and does not require additional energy systems (electricity, gas, hydraulics, etc.);
- Pre-engagement explosion-proof structure;
- Lifetime maintenance-free;
- Comes with a manual cranking function.
Spring Starter’s Applications
The engine is the source of power, bringing power and electricity to modern society. However, the engine needs to be provided from the outside to allow the engine to run to the starting speed from a standstill to a working state. At this time, a starter motor is required. The traditional motor has an electric motor (powered by a battery, and an electric motor is converted into mechanical energy), Air motor (relying on compressor compressed air for storage, relying on compressed air as energy to drive the air motor), and so on.
The disadvantage of this type of motor is that it relies on external energy sources, such as batteries and compressed air. If the battery is short of electricity and the compressed air is insufficient, the diesel engine cannot be started. Spring energy storage starting: It is a device that gives the engine mechanical energy storage starting function; it solves the problem that the electric starting system cannot cause starting difficulties due to battery shortage or starting system failure. The human rotation energy is stored with springs as a medium and released instantaneously. Thus starting a larger displacement engine; mostly used in marine, military, rescue, fire and other emergency working conditions that have high requirements on starting reliability.
