Batteries lose charge in extreme cold—but air doesn’t. That’s why many mining and exploration operators prefer air-start systems in Australia’s harshest climates.

Where Are Pneumatic Starters for Diesel Engines Used?

These starters are common in industries that operate large equipment, such as:

Mining vehicles and drills
Marine diesel engines
Petrochemical plants
Gas compression stations
Emergency generator sets

If your diesel engine needs to start first time, every time, a pneumatic starter could be the answer.
