Starting Air Compressor · Compressors
ABK ABK AE 100 300/40 is a marine reciprocating or rotary air compressor listed in the supplied equipment record. It is normally installed in the engine room close to the starting-air receivers and their cooling, drainage and control connections. Its primary purpose is to compress air for storage in starting-air receivers used to start large marine engines. Compared with service-air compressors, starting-air machines are dedicated to the high-reliability starting-air system and are normally protected by pressure, temperature and lubrication safeguards. The model designation identifies a particular manufacturer configuration, but the supplied record does not define every hardware, material, control, or certification difference to adjacent models. For exact ratings, dimensions, settings, materials, connection details, and variant-specific limits, refer to the manufacturer documentation for the exact figure.
Every value below comes from the manufacturer datasheet or class-society record on file for this model.

What our service work and the manufacturer documentation say about keeping this model running.
Inspect intake filters, valves or compression elements, lubrication, cooling, drains, flexible connections, safety valves and mounting. Trend running time, discharge temperature and receiver recovery where available. Verify automatic start/stop, alarms and trips according to the approved procedure. Exact valve clearances, lubricant quantities and overhaul limits require manufacturer documentation.
Carry air-filter elements, valve or seal kits, piston-ring or compression-element service parts as applicable, lubricants, belts or coupling parts, drain-valve kits, pressure switches and selected control relays.
