Dieselstart - Ether Starting System
KBi DIESEL START is a measured shot, metered flow, operator controlled high pressure starting fluid system. With a DIESEL START system, a chambered valve controls the quantity of starting fluid injected with each activation while an orifice in a nozzle restricts the rate of flow to a safe, effective rate.
Operation of a DIESEL START, measured shot metered flow system requires an operator to press and release an electric push button switch or pull and release a control cable while an engine is being cranked. With the electric system, a temperature sensitive switch may be installed (KBi Thermo-Guard), which makes the starting fluid system inoperative on a warm engine, preventing potentially damaging injection of starting fluid.
For engines over 18.03 liters (1100 CID), a DIESELMATIC system is recommended.
Функции
- Safe effective starting to temperatures of 0°F (-18°C). For colder temperature use KBI's fully automatic DIESELMATIC system
- Simple one-man operation from the cab
- Controlled metered flow, which prevents ether lockup or over speeding of the engine
Преимущества
- Faster start times (reduced cranking time)
- Prevents cylinder scoring in cold weather
- Reduces maintenance costs
- Eliminates unnecessary idling
- Economical
