Alternators & Starters for Transportation (Transit, Highway Coach & Shuttle Bus)













Alternators and starters play a special role in the transportation industry, which includes transit, highway, coach buses and shuttle buses. When you depend on an alternator or starter to keep your vehicle’s electrical system functioning at full capacity and ready to start in all conditions, it’s usually for yourself or your business. When it comes to the transportation industry however, you’re responsible for other people’s safety, well-being and comfort. You can’t afford to let people down or, worse yet, endanger them with a malfunctioning vehicle at a crucial moment.

We are authorized distributors for OEM Delco Remy & DENSO heavy-duty alternators and starters. Among our best starters for transit, highway coach and shuttle buses: the gear-reduction DENSO starter. It installs faster than other starters and withstands abuse under extreme conditions like no other. Among its features:

  • High-torque cranking power
  • Sealed heavy-duty ball bearings
  • Smooth, soft engagement for frequent start/stop applications
  • Coupled in a compact, lightweight design
We also carry new, brushless DENSO design alternators, equipped with:

  • Heavy-duty front and rear bearings to ensure long life
  • Corrosion-resistant rectifier and rotor
  • Compact, lightweight design
All Canadian Auto Electric’s alternators and starters are designed with high-performance but also durability and reliability in mind. We understand that transportation vehicles expend vast amounts of energy transporting heavy weight from both passengers and cargo and that they must withstand extreme weather to get people where they want to go. That’s why we ensure all alternators and starters for transportation vehicles are designed for rigorous performance.

Take our 50DN Delco Remy alternators, for example. They include:

  • More than 75 per cent of rated output at engine idle for continuous power, even for the high electrical loads of diesel bus operating routines
  • Durable, brushless design
  • Sealed entirely to withstand harsh external environments
Our Delco Remy 39MT gear-reduction starters feature:

  • Industry-leading rotatable flange for maximum application coverage with just one starter
  • Over-crank protection (OCP) and internal magnetic switch (IMS), which monitors the starter’s internal temperature and prevents thermal damage while also reducing voltage drop. That ensures the solenoid receives the maximum voltage in any starting condition
  • 30 per cent faster engine-cranking speed (RPM) than other starters on the market
At CAE, we can provide you with the highest standards of both products and services for transit, highway coach and shuttle bus fleets throughout North America. Our professionals will work closely with you to find the correct equipment to meet your vehicles’ electrical needs and keep you updated on new models and upgrades.
