HPHEN hydraulic starters produce higher torque and acceleration, resulting in faster and more reliable engine starts. HYPHEN hydraulic starting systems can overcome "black start" conditions using our hand pump to maintain critical operations during emergency situations. Contact us to request data or specifications for any model and prepare yourself to go further, longer, and faster with hydraulic starters Built for the Extreme.
SOFT ENGAGE VALVE The soft engage valve is a pilot operated valve mounted between the control valve and hydraulic starter within the starting system.As the system fluid passes through the control valve, a small amount of oil is delivered to the starter allowing the smooth engagement of the pinion gear and the flywheel ring gear.Once the gears mesh, the valve opens completely and delivers full system fluid.The result is a smooth, powerful engine start.
CONTROL VALVES Hydraulics offers several options when it comes to control valves.For those who are looking to actuate the hydraulic starting system manually, the two main options include foot pedal actuated and Bowden wire actuated valves.For operators interested in controlling starting system actuation via HMI (panel interface), Hyphen Hydraulics offers several options of solenoid operated valves that meet industry requirements including explosion proofing.
HAND PUMP The Hyphen Hydraulics hand pump is a manual pump capable of regenerating system pressure for a starting attempt.Equipped with a 3-foot lever, the manual pump operates on "human" power and can recharge a hydraulic system in a black start condition.The Hyphen Hydraulics hydraulic starting system is the only system capable of being recharged manually thus one more reason why it's relied upon in emergency starting applications.
TANKS & RESERVOIRS Hyphen Hydraulics offers a full line of reservoirs in various capacities: 4, 7.5, 12.5, and 15 gallons.Our tanks feature painted heavy gauge steel with a fully removable lid for easy maintenance.The filler breather cap is made of high-quality chrome-plated steel.Each tank includes an easily readable sight level gauge which conveniently allows the monitoring of oil in the system.
