When you need dependable engine starting systems for heavy-duty equipment, few brands match the rugged performance of Ingersoll Rand air starters. Built to deliver high torque and cold-start reliability, these starters are the gold standard in mining, oil & gas, marine, and industrial applications.
At MultiTorque, we are proud to be a trusted name among Ingersoll Rand air starter distributors across Australia. With branches in Brisbane and Perth, we supply, service, and support air starters for diesel and gas-powered engines across a wide range of industries.
What is an Ingersoll Rand Air Starter?
An air starter is a powerful, compact motor that uses compressed air to crank internal combustion engines. Unlike electric starters, air starters are ideal for hazardous or remote environments where battery systems are unreliable or unsafe.
Ingersoll Rand has led the way in air starter innovation for over 60 years, offering models that are:
- Spark-free and explosion-proof
- Durable in high-dust or high-moisture environments
- Capable of handling large displacement diesel and gas engines
- Compact, lightweight, and efficient
Their popular models include SS350, SS800, IR150BM, and Turbine Series starters—each engineered to handle tough starting conditions with minimal maintenance.
Why Choose an Ingersoll Rand Air Starter?
Ingersoll Rand air starters offer several advantages over electric or hydraulic alternatives:
✅ 1. Safe for Hazardous Areas
With no electrical spark risk, IR air starters are ideal for explosive environments like:
- Mining operations
- Petrochemical refineries
- Offshore oil rigs
- Gas compressor stations
✅ 2. Reliable in Remote Sites
No need for batteries or electrical infrastructure. As long as compressed air is available, you’re good to go—even in cold, remote, or wet conditions.
✅ 3. Compact and Lightweight
IR air starters are up to 65% lighter than electric models, saving space and easing installation on mobile and stationary engines.
✅ 4. Low Maintenance, Long Life
Ingersoll Rand starters are built for longevity with minimal moving parts, high-strength alloys, and corrosion-resistant finishes.
