RIGSAVER SGE
Rigsaver is an air shut-off valve that is mounted in the air intake system to stop the airflow from entering the cylinders and positively immobilize the engine, safeguarding personnel and equipment. It can be manually or automatically controlled, responding to a variety of fault or hazard conditions.
After acquiring the RIGSAVER brand in 2012, AMOT re-engineered the original design to improve valve performance over the life of the engine and, in 2014, launched the next generation RIGSAVER 11SGE.
The RIGSAVER SGE Series air intake shut off valve has been used worldwide, providing reliable service on and offshore under adverse conditions associated with locations in the Canadian Arctic, the Gulf of Mexico, the North Sea, the deserts of Africa, the Middle East and the Pacific Rim. Our product's quality meets or exceeds the stringent requirements of our broad customer base, which includes leading engine manufactuers. The RIGSAVER air intake shut off valve helps prevent diesel engine overspeed by cutting off the air to the engine, protecting valuable equipment and workers' lives.
