What Are Air Starter Motors?

Air starter motors are mechanical devices that use compressed air to crank internal combustion engines. Unlike electric starters, which rely on batteries, air starters offer consistent power without the worry of electrical failure. That makes them ideal for applications like:

• Mining and drilling equipment

• Diesel generators

• Large industrial engines

• Offshore rigs and marine engines

• Hazardous or explosive environments

If you’re operating in conditions where heat, moisture, or electrical interference is a risk, an air starter motor gives you peace of mind and serious torque.

Why Choose Air Over Electric?

Air starters offer some real advantages in the industrial world:

• No batteries required – Forget jump-starting or battery swaps

• Safer in explosive environments – No sparks, less risk

• Compact and lightweight – Easier to mount in tight engine bays

• More starts per system – With proper air reserves, multiple starts are possible

• Longer service life – With fewer electrical components, there’s less to fail

At MultiTorque, we help you pick the right type—whether it’s a turbine starter, vane motor type, or geared design—based on your equipment, space, and torque needs.
