How to Turn and Start Diesel Engine with Cqstart Spring Starter
FAQ
1. What is the Cqstart disc spring starter?
A special starting system, which stores the energy of manpower in disc springs and releases it once to start a larger engine.
(often called hand starter, spring motor, mechanical starter, manual starter, etc.)
2. The reason why uses Cqstart disc spring starter?
As we all know that the electric starter sometimes needs maintenance. Our starter is designed to replace it when it is out of battery or failure. Unlike air starter or hydraulic starter, spring starter requires no external power systems. They are maintenance-free, compact, dependable and water-proof, the preferred choice for backup starting.
3. What are the main application fields?
All fields which diesel engines apply to. Mainly in marine emergency gen-set, lifeboat, military power station, fieldwork, emergency generator vehicle, diesel-powered fire pump, emergency rescue, agriculture equipment, mine, chemical plant and explosion-proof generator set.
4. The range of applied engines?
Displacement between 0.5L-38L, the world record starting power of spring starter.
Single spring starter: up to 19L(L6) and 30L(V16)
Spring starter group system: up to 26L(L6) and 38L(12), our target is to start a V16 engine with the displacement of 50L.
5. How to ensure quality?
The world's first unique simulated condition test bench. Each starter will go through pre-grinding test. Fully inspecting all indexes and the accuracy of assembly. And each product has its own starting performance test record.
6. How to maintain it?
It is maintenance-free with advanced anti-wear grease.
7. There are multiple models of spring starters for one engine model. Why?
Because one engine model may have different ring gear and flywheel housing. And the installation place for spring starters may vary. Besides, the power of spring starter depends on various engine loads. One spring starter is customized for one model of an engine series. It may be not suitable for another engine model.
8. Can I use spring starter when electric starter is working?
Absolutely no. It will badly damage the spring starter. We have promoted a micro-lock switch to prevent this case. So please connect it to the electric starter circuit.
9. Does it matters when used in lower temperatures?
A lower temperature will lower the starting performance of the engine, not that of spring starter. You may need an auxiliary device. Our starter has passed the starting test at a temperature of 40 degrees below zero Celsius.
10. What is a micro-lock switch?
It is a protector preventing two starters from working at the same time. You need to connect it to the control circuit of the electric starter and verify its function.
11. How long does it take to start an engine with Dalin spring starter?
Average time to wind and trip is 20 seconds. Lesser time in with the smaller model.
12. Do I have to use micro-lock switch?
Yes. It is a protector preventing two starters from working at the same time. It has been found that the switch can substantially lower the damage rate.
13. Application brands?
Cummins, Caterpillar, John Deere, Perkins, Volvo, Deutz, Scania, Weichai, Yuchai, Huachai, Hechai, Changchai, etc.
We can design for models which we have not met before with relevant technical data.
14. The quality of the component.
Most suppliers are qualified suppliers for Cummins, and all of them obtained ISO9001 OR TS16949 certificate of the quality system. And each component will go through a strict inspection process before we use it.
