Why IPU’s Hydraulic Engine Starters Are Unbeatable

Their independent, dead-ship or black-start capability is ideal as your primary method of starting fire pumps, emergency generators, and compressors.   Hydraulic starting motors require no external power source to function. The process of how the hydraulic starter motors work is explained below: Hydraulic oil is stored under pressure inside a piston accumulator When the start sequence is activated the oil pressure is released This is…

Celebrating International Women’s Day at IPU

March 11th, 2022 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

  IPU is celebrating International Women’s Day on 8th March 2022. IPU has a growing female workforce and has some advice for females considering a career in engineering. Findings published by the Women’s Engineering Society in 2021 states that women make up 21.80% of the workforce in the engineering sector in the UK. This is still far from where we need to be as an industry. IPU works hard to support gender diversity and equality. The company operates an equal pay policy, which is based on job role and not the gender of the job holder. This is proven in the fact that IPU’s Management Team is almost a 50/50 split, with 5 men and 4 women. As part of IPU’s celebration of…

IPU’s AtmoShield system dramatically reduces emissions on-site

February 28th, 2022 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

  As one of the county’s largest employers, James Hall wanted to enhance its role in the local community by reducing emissions years before regulatory limits came into force. James Hall took the decision to meet the new limits long before that deadline came into effect. As one of the county’s largest employers, it takes pride in its position as a good corporate citizen. The company had four goals: bring NOx emissions down from 1,300ppm to well below the limits set by legislation reduce the NOx emissions long before the legislation comes into effect, tackle emissions such as black smoke that may not be covered by legislation, and be ready for any future emissions legislation.

The story of how IPU saved Christmas…

December 16th, 2021 in Components, Emissions Solutions, Engine Starting, Fuel Conditioning, News

Everyone at IPU hopes that Santa brings you all the presents you want on Christmas morning. We know he’ll be out on his sleigh through the wee, small hours delivering presents all around the world. If it hadn’t been for IPU, it might have been very different… Shoddy maintenance by his elves (always downing tools and moaning about elf & safety – sorry), meant that his facilities at the North Pole were falling apart. This is when IPU stepped in: The Fuel Conditioning team installed a polishing unit to stop cold diesel clogging the sleigh’s engine (the reindeer quit in 2010, complaining that Christmas was only meant to be twelve days long). The Engine Starting team fitted…
