Product Description

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.

Engine Starting Systems
 

1. Why use an alternative to an electrical start motor?

Diesel engines in most applications and industries use the standard type electric starter motor as their method of primary starting. However if environmental, application or Black-start conditions dictate that electrical power is unsuitable or needs a backup solution, the alternatives of Hydraulic, Pneumatic, Gas or Spring powered starting supplied by IPU Starting is required.

1. What is Black-start?

 Black-start is an emergency condition when all primary and auxiliary electrical or alternative power has failed and a diesel engine (probably driving the emergency generator or fire pump) needs to be started. An Hyphen black-start system requires no external power, being completely self-contained with the ability to start a vast range of diesel engines used in all environments, applications and emergency situations.

1. What system to use?

To determine what type of starting system requires information related to the capacity of the engine, the application, hazardous or non-hazardous environment, extra load upon the engine, space envelope and client specifications. HYPHEN's 10 years of experience helps us provide the correct system for any situation.

1. How does a Hydraulic start system work?

 A hydraulic power starter motor replaces the traditional electric motor and is powered by a hydraulic fluid. The "energy" is generated by the use of gas loaded accumulators that store hydraulic fluid against compressed nitrogen gas. The fluid is released into the hydraulic circuit via a control valve to the hydraulic starter motor to start the engine.

1. When would you use a hydraulic start system?

Because a hydraulic start system is always fitted with a hand-operated hydraulic pump for ultimate back up they are first choice for black-start applications. Hydraulic systems are used on larger engines and applications that require longer cranking duration because the duration can be lengthened with the addition of more gas-loaded accumulators
   Hydraulic systems are ideally suited to hazardous areas where ZonedII or ATEX-approval is a requirement. HYphen's hydraulic systems are compatible to an extensive range of engines and are suitable to all hazardous requirements.
 6  .What systems are best suited in mining applications?
Air and hydraulic systems are the most commonly used in mining. Critically, no aluminium must be present due the risk of a thermite reaction. To ensure this all critical Hyphen Starting air and hydraulic starting components are of a cast iron construction and conform to current hazardous area and ATEX requirements
