An air starter uses compressed air to generate mechanical rotational power that is transferred to the engine flywheel, allowing the engine to crank and start. This type of starting system is particularly relevant to heavy-duty engines and equipment operating in industrial, oil & gas, marine, offshore, and other demanding environments.
