ENGINE AIR STARTERS

· The TDI TURBOTWIN T50-P air starter is suitable for starting either gas or diesel models up APPLICATION
to 70 liters (4200 CID)… see installation and selection guidelines. This includes VERSATILITY
Caterpillar 3500 Series (gas or diesel), Detroit Diesel 16V149, & Cummins KTA-50
engines.

· The turbine motor used in the model T50-P is the same rugged design used in the
complete line of TURBOTWIN starters. Properly installed, the TURBOTWIN motor is highly CONTAMINATED
resistant to damage caused by wet or hard contaminated drive air. A strainer may be SUPPLY AIR
recommended on the air supply circuits which actuate starter pinion engagement.

· Installation requires only a starter relay valve (recommend TDI TURBOVALVE), and
operation within each starter model recommended maximum pressure. The T50-P SIMPLICITY
features modular construction and individual parts are easily serviced. This provides
T50-P users with simple and low cost starter repair and overhaul in the future.

· The T50-P’s efficient twin-turbine motor now delivers more torque using less air than
previous starter designs. The T50-P is offered in both standard pressure (10 nozzle) and LOW AIR
low pressure (14 nozzle) versions. In addition, the T50-P’s superior engagement CONSUMPTION
mechanism provides users with true low pressure operation… on air pressures as low as
40 psig.

· The gear train and bearings are factory grease-packed for the life of the starter, therefore NO MAINTENANCE
it requires no maintenance. There are no rubbing parts, so there is no external lubrication DESIGN and
required. Lubricator problems, installation expense, system maintenance, and the messy ENVIRNOMENTALLY
and hazardous oil film around the starter exhaust can be eliminated. SAFE

· TURBOTWIN T50-P starters are constructed from durable, corrosion resistant, and high
quality materials. Major components are made from high strength aluminum or steel HEAVY DUTY
alloy. As with all TURBOTWIN Series starters, there are no plastic parts inside. CONSTRUCTION

· The T50-P can be used over a wide range of drive pressures from 40 psig (2.7 BAR) to
120 psig (8 BAR). The lightweight, 34 lb. unit is capable of delivering over 45 HP (33.60 BROAD RANGE of
kW) of cranking power at only 120 psig (8 BAR). OPERATION

· The high power of a turbine air motor combined with a planetary gear speed reducer DESCRIPTION OF
results in a very efficient and reliable unit. A two stage axial flow turbine coupled to a OPERATION
spur gear reduction set powers the TURBOTWIN T50-P.

· Tech Development Inc. introduced the first turbine technology for starting industrial DEVELOPMENT
engines in 1979. The TURBOTWIN T50-P starters feature an innovative and more reliable HISTORY
turbine motor than anything on the market today.

· The TURBOTWIN T50-P is the result of TDI’s continuing turbine starter design innovations.
Based on our successful TURBOTWIN T30 Series starters, the TURBOTWIN T50-P starters
should exceed customer requirements in every installation.
