IPU have supplied six complete air start systems for the Pearl GTL project in Qatar.
Read more…Two CAT 3608 emergency generator sets located on a jetty required separate compressed air secondary starting systems.
Read more…Environmental operating conditions with extreme temperature ranges of –36°C to +35°C were a major consideration in the selection of appropriate materials and components.
Read more…The hydraulic start system was designed for primary starting of a CAT 3516HD emergency power generator located on an offshore platform.
Read more…This hydraulic solution was designed as a secondary start unit for a CAT 3512 engine installed at the Russian mainland export terminal.
Read more…After a recent visit to a North Sea offshore platform, IPU engineers discovered a critical situation.
Read more…IPU were awarded all starting systems for both the fire pumps and generator set.
Read more…The hydraulic starting system was designed for a generator being used as a multi-role generator for emergency, essential services and blackstart operation with a prime function to start a 1000Kw fire pump motor.
Read more…IPU were awarded the starting systems for both generator sets on the platform, this was a huge and important task.
Read more…Ice Challenger ‘Snowbird 6’, was an amphibious vehicle designed and built by Steve Brooks with the aim of setting a new world record by crossing them frozen wastes of the Bering Strait. The vehicle was powered by a 6-cylinder diesel engine, which incorporated an IPU hydraulic starting system. IPU Starting designed the system so that the team could start the engine at -40ºC and if for any reason the first attempt to start failed, the system could be manually recharged for further start attempts. Previous attempts by Ice Challenger to cross the Strait had been hampered by the use of conventional battery starting, which were totally unsuitable for immersion in seawater and the sub zero…
