Safety Introduction Turbochargers manufactured by ABB Turbo Systems are state of the art and comply with the respective health and safety standards in effect at the time the turbocharger was built. This ensures safe operation of the turbocharger. Nevertheless, there may be some residual risks during operation of and work on the turbocharger which: ...
The specific operating limits of the turbocharger were determined on the basis of information from the enginebuilder about the intended use. These data are given on the rating plate. ABB Turbo Systems accepts no liability and rejects all warranty claims for any non-intended uses.
Deflagration on gas engines ABB turbochargers can tolerate a deflagration with a transient pressure increase of 12 bar. ABB Turbo Systems recommends subjecting the turbocharger to a visual inspection after a deflagration event. As part of the inspection, the position of the turbine casing and the position of the compressor casing to the bearing casing must be checked, and the bearing casing must be examined to see if it has shifted in relation to the bracket.
The locations of the rating plates are defined in the Operation Manual / Product description. Periodic check of the pressure vessels The pressure vessels used by ABB Turbo Systems, for example, in the wet or dry cleaning process, are so-called simple pressure vessels.

This document is valid for different turbocharger design variants. As a result, it might contain sections and descriptions of components that do not apply to a certain turbocharger. If you have any queries about a design variant, ABB Turbocharging Service Stations will be pleased to provide information (see Contact information at www.abb.com/turbocharging).
Figure 3: Warning plate locations If warning plates are not present in the designated locations or not readable, proceed as fol- lows: Order new warning plates from ABB Turbocharging Service Stations. Remove any warning plates that have become unreadable.
CAUTION The oil is supplied (02) and drained (03) through the bracket (01). The necessary sealing is provided by O-rings. The gaskets are not included in the ABB Turbo Systems scope of delivery and must be provided by the enginebuilder.
Oil pressure measuring point Oil temperature measuring point For monitoring the lubricating oil pressure, ABB Turbo Systems recommends installing an "M" manometer immediately before the turbocharger. If the pressure is controlled electronically, the appropriate signals are to be triggered at the warning and alarm values.
Table 8: Lubricating oil temperature at the outlet If the turbocharger was operated for a longer period of time outside of the admissible range, ABB Turbo Systems recommends to have the turbocharger inspected by an ABB Turbocharg- ing Service Station.

– 600 °C with non-insulated casing At temperatures below the specified values, post-lubrication must be ensured until the ro- tors come to a standstill. ABB Turbo Systems recommends post-lubrication for 10 minutes. Observe the oil pressure specified for post-lubrication (see Table 6).
8000 … 12000 h) Table 11: Maintenance table [h] = Hours of operation If the maintenance intervals are incompatible with operation of the engine, contact ABB Turbo Systems. ABB Turbo Systems recommends having mechanical cleaning carried out by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station during the service work.
Very heavily contami- nated components can no longer be cleaned using this method. In this case, ABB Turbo Sys- tems recommends having the contaminated components cleaned mechanically by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station.

The compressor is cleaned during operation using the wet cleaning method. It is carried out at an engine load of 50 ... 85 %. This cleaning method has been tested and approved by ABB Turbo Systems. V-engines On V-engines with several turbochargers per engine, parallel cleaning of both turbochargers is recommended.
Very heavily contami- nated components can no longer be cleaned using this method. In this case, ABB Turbo Sys- tems recommends having the contaminated components cleaned mechanically by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station.
