SS815GB03L32 Orientations and Builds

This starter is also listed in these orientations and configurations. The motor, gearing, flange and pinion are the same; the suffix sets the inlet, exhaust and drive-housing positions or marks a special build: SS815GB03L32-02G, SS815GB03L32-20D, SS815GB03L32-22G, SS815GB03L32-22H, SS815GB03L32-22J, SS815GB03L32-31M.

Why Choose the SS815GB03L32?

• Powerful and rugged. A 75 hp vane motor in the large-frame SS800 design that Ingersoll Rand calls the standard by which other starters are measured.
   
• Pre-engaged drive. The pinion is fully in mesh before cranking begins, which reduces ring gear wear on heavy engines.
   
• Runs on air or natural gas. Every SS800 model is gas sealed.
   
• No sparks, no batteries. A pneumatic starter has no electrical arcing and does not lose power to cold batteries, so it suits marine, oil and gas, mining and standby power service.
   
• Flexible mounting. The 4 inlet x 4 exhaust x 16 drive-housing orientations let one starter fit many engine layouts, and the starter is field serviceable.

SS815GB03L32 FAQ

What is the opposite-rotation version of the SS815GB03L32?

The SS815GB03R31 is the opposite-rotation counterpart. Power, flange and gearing are the same; only the rotation and the matching pinion code differ. Match the rotation printed on your existing starter's nameplate.

What is the difference between the SS810, SS815, SS825 and SS850?

All four use the same 75 hp SS800 vane motor. The SS810 is an inertia starter; the SS815, SS825 and SS850 are pre-engaged. Gearing sets the engine size: SS810 and SS815 use B gearing (diesel 16 to 130 L), the SS825 uses C gearing (80 to 200 L) and the SS850 uses D gearing (160 to 320 L). Compare the full SS800 series.

Can it run on natural gas?

Yes. The "G" in the model number means the starter is gas sealed. When running on gas, pipe the exhaust away to a safe location as required by your site's codes.

Can it crank for a long time?

Ingersoll Rand does not rate this starter for extended cranking (more than 10 seconds). For hard-starting engines or long crank cycles, step up to a larger SS800 model or choose a turbine such as the ST1000 series.

What air supply and accessories does it need?

Provide a 90 to 150 psi supply through a 1-1/2 in. line, with enough receiver volume to deliver up to 1,700 scfm while the engine cranks. Ingersoll Rand's matching accessories include SRV125 or SRV125T relay valve, ST900-267-24 strainer, 150BMP-1051B (12 V) or 150BMP-2451B (24 V) solenoid valve, SS800-A674 muffler.
