Research and Development

Electrical Systems Specialists, LLC is dedicated to providing state of the art replacement starters, alternators and generators. Our target market is the heavy-duty, industrial and agricultural unit purchaser. This huge secondary market is currently being serviced by the makers of OE electrical units. Our mission is to supply very high quality products that fit these OE applications, while at the same time providing our customers with a price and service more competitive than OE.

ESS accomplishes this task in a number of important ways.

• Sourcing…All products provided through the ESS program are sold outright with no core charges attached. The vast majority (over 95%) of our units are manufactured as brand new.
  
• Quality control…All manufacturing partners selected by ESS are certified as either ISO-9001 or QS-9002 producers. This certification assures our customers of uniformly made products. Only those certified are considered as potential suppliers. In many instances our overseas suppliers also make units for OE consumption.
  
• Warranty…All ESS units are warranted according to Original Equipment guidelines based on unit application and usage. A detailed description of our warranty program can be found in the ESS Policy section.
  
• Application development…ESS has a policy of bringing hard to find applications to the market. Our aftermarket line features units offered only by OE makers at much higher cost. In many instances our units provide improvements over the performance of the OE in torque, amperage output and fit.
  
• Cataloging…Our entire catalog is on the ESS website and is updated with new information and applications on a daily basis. Research into OE interchanges is ongoing and available to all who use this service. In case of applications not found on our site, please Contact ESS for additional technical help. Our staff of field engineers stands ready to assist you with information as needed.
  
• Field engineering…ESS conducts a vigorous program of discovery relative to new OE applications. All of our customers are encouraged to inquire about the development of new units for their use. If there is a specific need on your part, please Contact ESS with a request for application development. We will be glad to assist. Development time ranges from 90 to 180 days for sample delivery, with firm pricing and local warehousing available.
  
• Product testing…All units are built to match or exceed the OEM performance specification of the original motor or alternator. All of our products are field fit on engines and the machinery on which they apply. Components are specified to OEM performance levels and batch sampling of every part number is standard throughout the line.
  
• In many instances we can provide high torque conversions used in replacing older style direct drive starting motors. This service is allied with our development efforts, and proposals on conversion applications can be made within 60 days.
