Did you know that…

…even mod­ern elec­tri­cal and elec­tron­ic com­po­nents react to cold tem­per­a­tures in a sim­i­lar way to the human body, whose mus­cle reac­tions slow down sig­nif­i­cant­ly below 12°C.

Falling tem­per­a­tures also affect starters, alter­na­tors and glow plugs. You can only rely on your Perkins engine if the start­ing and charg­ing sys­tem is effec­tive and ful­ly functional.

That is why win­ter-proof elec­tri­cal com­po­nents are essen­tial for a smooth start.

Elec­tri­cal com­po­nents from Perkins – pow­er­ful even in winter

Your advan­tages with Perkins orig­i­nal starters and alternators

  • High reli­a­bil­i­ty and long ser­vice life
  • Starters and spare parts based on the lat­est series pro­duc­tion technology
  • Safe engine start and high vibra­tion resistance

The starter motor pro­vides the pow­er need­ed to start the diesel engine. It draws its charge from the bat­tery, which in turn is charged by the alter­na­tor while the engine is run­ning. The flaw­less inter­ac­tion of these com­po­nents ensures high engine avail­abil­i­ty even at low temperatures.

The ten­sion of the belt is impor­tant for the alter­na­tor. If it is too loose, it will slip. If the belt ten­sion is too high, the gen­er­a­tor bear­ings can be dam­aged. The opti­mal coor­di­na­tion of all com­po­nents is there­fore absolute­ly essen­tial to ensure that your engine runs reliably.

Even if repli­ca spare parts look the same as the orig­i­nal, their tech­ni­cal prop­er­ties can dif­fer sig­nif­i­cant­ly. This can not only have a neg­a­tive impact on the per­for­mance and fuel con­sump­tion of your engine, but can also lead to seri­ous dam­age. By using gen­uine Perkins parts, you can be con­fi­dent that your engine will start and func­tion reli­ably every time.
