ST-115B
Electric Starter
Description
ST-115B electric starter
ST-115B is an enclosed series-wound DC electric motor used to crank the rotor of the GTDE-117 or GTDE-117-1 gas-turbine starter unit. It supplies mechanical drive only during the starting sequence and is not an aircraft electrical generator. The suffix B is part of the exact product identity and must be retained in the enquiry, purchase documents and inspection records. The designation on the offered unit should be compared with its passport and the approved equipment documentation.

Documented installation with the GTDE-117
Technical training material for the MiG-29 and T-10 aircraft systems identifies the ST-115B as the electric starter of the GTDE-117 family. The starter is mounted on the accessory gearbox of the gas-turbine unit and is connected to the turbocompressor rotor through a freewheel clutch. Once the GTDE reaches the required self-sustaining condition, the clutch separates the electric motor from the running rotor. This documented arrangement explains why ST-115B selection depends on the exact GTDE execution, drive interface and aircraft installation.
Starting-system operation and associated equipment
In the documented T-10 starting system, operation is coordinated by the APD-99 starting automatic unit together with the DTA-10 turbocompressor-speed sensor. The GTDE-117 fuel-control mechanism issues the starter-disconnection command according to the starting programme. Other installations may use their own approved control designation, so APD-99 or DTA-10 must not be assumed solely from the starter name. The ST-115B works within a system that also includes the freewheel clutch, accessory gearbox, starting-fuel equipment and ignition equipment.
Electrical data and construction
The retained product data for this exact catalogue position specifies a 16–29.4 V DC supply range, steady current not exceeding 180 A and a steady rotational speed of 9,000 rpm. The recorded maximum accompaniment speed is 24,000 rpm and maximum shaft load torque is 0.15 kgf·m. The B execution is recorded without an integral centrifugal switch; disconnection is provided by the associated starting system and freewheel drive. Retained dimensional data is approximately Ø150 × 205 mm, operating temperature −60 to +100 °C and mass not more than 4.1 kg. Because public secondary listings contain conflicting figures, the passport of the offered unit remains controlling.
Identification, inspection and ordering
Before installation, check the ST-115B marking, housing, mounting interface, drive end, free rotation, electrical terminal assembly, insulation and preservation condition. ST-115A and other related starters are not interchangeable merely because they share a family name or similar ratings. For comparison and catalogue navigation, see ST-115A, STV-3TPB, SGS-30B and STG-12TM. State the required condition, quantity, passport and inspection documents when requesting a quotation.
