Advantages of US Energy AC Starters over Air & Hydraulic Systems...

Economical: AC three (3) Phase starters allow lower overall installation costs when compared to non-electrical systems. There is no need for expensive air tanks, accumulators, fittings, pumps, air compressors, etc. required by air and hydraulic systems. If the compressed air is produced by an electric motor, this added operational cost of electricity must be factored in. Compact and easily interchanged with existing engine factory supplied starters.

Less bulky: Electric starter motors are generally heavier than air and hydraulic Motors of equal horse power, however, they do not require the bulky support systems such as air tanks, compressors, pumps valves, and fittings found in these systems.

Service & Maintenance: AC three (3) Phase starter motors are virtually maintenance free. There are no brushes to wear out and the bearings are sealed and do not require lubrication. Should repair be required, some minor repairs can be performed in the field; others may require sending the unit to the factory or an experienced motor repair shop. Rugged construction assures years of trouble free service.

Multitude of available Voltages: Single (1) Phase 110/220 VAC (50 or 60 HZ), or Three (3) Phase from 208 to 480 VAC (50 or 60 HZ). Even 12, 24, 50, 64, or 125 Volt DC.
