Automatic Engine Stop-Start System

Designed for railway applications, SmartStart AESS automatically manages locomotive engine shutdown and restart to reduce fuel consumption, lower emissions, and improve operational efficiency.

OVERVIEW

Intelligent Engine Management

SmartStart AESS (Automatic Engine Stop-Start) is an intelligent locomotive control solution that automatically shuts down engines during extended idle periods and restarts them only when operating conditions require. By continuously monitoring key locomotive parameters such as battery voltage, temperature, and brake pressure, the system helps eliminate unnecessary idling while ensuring the locomotive remains ready for service.

Trusted by rail operators worldwide, SmartStart improves fuel efficiency, reduces emissions, protects battery health, and provides valuable operational insights through remote monitoring and fleet management integration.
