ABB Turbo Systems accepts no liability for damage resulting from unauthorized alterations or use of non-original parts.
The turbocharger is a turbomachine comprising a turbine and a compressor, mounted on a common shaft. Exhaust gases from the engine drive the turbine, which in turn spins the compressor. The compressor draws in, compresses, and forces fresh air into the engine's cylinders. The turbocharger has a lubricating oil system supplied by the engine. Key operational limits are defined on the rating plate and agreed upon with the engine manufacturer. Regular inspection and maintenance are crucial for safe and efficient operation. Specific procedures exist for start-up, operation, servicing, and stopping the engine, as well as for mothballing and disposal of components. Safety instructions, including the use of personal protective equipment, must be strictly followed.
