51H Air Turbine Motor
Improving Starter Reliability for Kawasaki Gas Turbine Engines.
If your Kawasaki Gas Turbine Engine is still using a vane starter, you have no doubt encountered reliability problems.  Parts that stick or swell, or simply wear out due to constant friction eventually lead to starter failure.  Something no one in our industry can afford.

Replacing your vane motor starter with TDI turbine technology is a significant reliability and longevity upgrade.  Turbine technology is inherently more reliable, requires no maintenance, and provides significantly longer life.  The model 51H Turbine motor is specifically designed as a replacement upgrade for Kongsberg and Kawasaki engines.

Installation is Fast and Easy.
The compact 6.1” diameter size and lightweight (28lbs./12.7 kg) frame, with SAE “C” four bolt mounting flange make installation a one-man operation on your engine.

Contaminants are not a Problem Anymore
Dirt, moisture, rust or other contaminants that lodge inside your vane-type starter and lead to shut down won’t get caught inside the 51H.  Large air channels and TDI’s unique open gas path design allow these same contaminants to literally “pass through”.  Even sour gas has no effect on the 51H.

Better Design.  Better Parts.  Better Reliability.
The 51H features a single stage impulse turbine coupled to an integral planetary reduction set.  All parts are made from rugged, high quality steels and aluminum.  There are no plastic parts.  No rubbing parts.  And there’s no need for messy lubricants in the supply line to clog the system.  The clean simplicity of the 51H design minimizes potential problems and provides a longer maintenance-free life.
