Mode of operation

The turbocharger is a turbo machine and consists of the following main components:

 Turbine
 Compressor

These components are installed on a common shaft and form the rotor (see Figure 1).

The exhaust gases of the internal combustion engine flow through the gas-inlet casing (8) and
the nozzle ring (7) onto the turbine wheel (6). The turbine wheel uses the energy contained in
the exhaust gas to drive the rotor and, hence, the compressor wheel (11).

The exhaust gases then reach the atmosphere through the exhaust gas pipe connected to the
gas-outlet casing (5).

The compressor wheel (11) sucks in fresh air and presses the compressed air into the cylin-
der.

The air passes through the filter silencer (1) to the compressor wheel (11). The air then flows
through the diffuser (10) and exits the turbocharger through the compressor casing (12). An
air outlet silencer (13) is available as an option. It reduces the noise emitted by the compo-
nents on the outlet side downstream of the compressor casing.

The rotor runs in two radial plain bearings (3/4) which are located in the bearing casing (9)
between compressor and turbine. The axial thrust bearing (2) is located on the compressor
end.

The plain bearings are connected to a central lubricating oil duct which is normally supplied by
the lubricating oil circuit of the engine. The oil outlet always lies at the deepest point of the
bearing casing (9).

The turbocharger is equipped with an oil tank which is integrated in the bearing casing (9).
This oil tank supplies the bearings of the rotor with oil until standstill in the event that a mal-
function of the lubrication oil system causes an emergency stop of the engine.

The recommended replacement intervals and the corresponding operating limits are jointly
defined with the enginebuilder. This information is specific to the system.

Operation above the indicated values nBmax, tBmax can considerably shorten the recommended
replacement intervals. In such a case, we recommend that you contact the nearest official
service station of ABB Turbo Systems.

nMmax, tMmax normally apply only when running at overload (110 %) during trials on the engine
test bed. These limit values can also be permitted during operation for special applications.
Operation above nMmax and tMmax is not permitted.

Non-observance of the recommended replacement intervals increases the risk of unpredictab-


le component failures.

Locations of the rating plates

One rating plate (1) each is attached on the left and the right side of the turbocharger bearing
casing.

The machined contact surface may have a maximum unevenness of 0.2 mm.

Foot parts on the turbocharger

The foot of the A...-L turbocharger consists of two parts:

 Compressor-end foot (CE), integrated in the bearing casing


 Turbine-end foot (TE), fitted on the gas outlet casing.

Casing and foot positions

The possible casing and foot positions of the turbochargers are shown in the Outline drawings
documentation.

5.1.1 Turbochargers for flexible cut-out

5.3 Exhaust gas pipes and air lines

5.3.1 Mechanical decoupling of the turbocharger

Figure 5

The connections between the turbocharger and the exhaust gas pipes and air lines must be
decoupled from the vibration by bellows. The bellows are also required for compensation of
the thermal expansion of the pipes and the turbocharger. See also chapters:

 Thermal expansion of the turbocharger


 Admissible vibrations on the turbocharger

Vibration and thermal expansion


Vibration of the pipes and thermal expansion in the longitudinal and trans-
verse direction cause forces and torques on the turbocharger casing.
CAUTION
 Use steel bellows for mechanical decoupling.

Rubber bellows are only admissible as bellows on the air-inlet.

Flow losses with bellows

The flow losses remain low when using bellows with inner protection pipe.

Requirements of bellows and arrangement of pipes

 The bellows must ensure in all operating points that no vibrations as well as no forces and
torques of shifts resulting from thermal expansions are passed on to the turbocharger.
 The use of elbows/bends between the bellows and turbocharger casing is not permitted.
 A connecting piece may be installed in the gas outlet pipe between the casing flange and
the bellows (see chapter Exhaust gas pipes after the turbocharger).
 Pipes must be supported on the engine or in other suitable places.
 It is not allowed to support pipes on the turbocharger.

5.3.2 Fitting the pipes

 Attach and support all pipes to and from the turbocharger in such a way that free vibrations
are prevented.
 Route pipes in such a way that they do not impede the removal and installation of the filter
silencer, compressor casing and gas inlet casing.

Pretreatment of heat-resistant screws

 Coat the screw threads with high-temperature grease.

 Use heat-resistant screws for attaching pipes to the gas inlet flange and gas outlet flange of
the turbocharger.

5.3.6 Pressurised charge air ducts to the charge air cooler

Figure 7

Bellows (B) The scavenging air duct must be insulated to prevent the emission of noise. For
this reason, space for insulation around the air-outlet flange, the bellows, and the
scavenging air duct must be provided with an insulation thickness of at least 50
mm, see following table.
Diffuser (D) Taper angle 8° … 16°;
area ratio A6 : A5 = 2 : 1,
greater taper angles can lead to flow separation and hence to increased flow re-
sistance.
Avoid abrupt changes in cross section and narrowing of the pipes.
The scavenging air duct should be routed as straight as possible in the intermedia-
te casing (I) to the charge air cooler to minimise pressure losses.

5.3.8 Sealing air supply for flexible cut-out

Sealing air function

Turbochargers which are designed for "flexible cut-out" must be supplied with external sealing
air to ensure that no oil or gas can leak during cut-out operation. Sealing air must be supplied
to the turbocharger only when the engine is running. Therefore the sealing air is extracted
from the turbocharging system of the engine.

Sealing air requirements

 The sealing air must not contain any water, oil or dirt.
 The required sealing air pressure is determined by the design of the sealing air line.
 Sealing air temperature at the extraction point ≤ 150 °C.
 If the surface temperature of the sealing air line is > 80 °C, the line must be insulated or a
protection against contact must be fitted.

Choice of sealing air extraction point

The sealing air extraction point must be chosen so that the sealing air requirements are met in
all operating points of the engine. Preferably the sealing air is extracted at the outlet of the
auxiliary blower of another turbocharger. This is based on the assumption that the pressure at
the extraction point corresponds to the pressure in the scavenging air receiver.

Sealing air supply line from the extraction point to the turbocharger

The pressure at the extraction point P1 and the dimensioning of the supply line determine the
pressures that occur in the turbocharger. If the pipes are too long, the pressure in the tur-
bocharger is too low, and if the pipes are too short, the sealing air consumption is too high.
Therefore, depending on the pipe arrangement, an orifice is used at the turbocharger inlet.

5.5 Thermal expansion of the turbocharger

Stresses on the turbocharger casing


Forces and torques which act on the turbocharger casing can lead to serious
damage to machinery or property with grave consequences.
CAUTION
 Install bellows on the flanges of air-outlet, gas inlet and gas outlet casings.

Thermal expansions occur on the turbocharger, especially at the turbine end. The high tempe-
rature differences between standstill and operation lead to an expansion (relative displace-
ment) of the connecting flanges.

The values for thermal expansion listed below apply for conditions at full load.

The bellows used must be able to absorb the resulting expansions on the connecting flanges
in all operating points.

The original dimensions of the turbocharger appear in the separate Outline drawings docu-
mentation.

5.6 Admissible vibrations on the turbocharger

General

The measured vibrations are specified in the following quantities:

 Vibration displacement srms [mm]


 Vibration velocity vrms [mm/s]
 Vibration acceleration arms [m/s2]

The srms, vrms and arms variables indicate the effective values of the cumulative signal (RMS) in
the defined frequency range.

Low-frequency vibrations

Low-frequency vibrations are caused by the interactions of the characteristic frequencies of


the engine/bracket/turbocharger system. The vibrations are induced by rotating and oscillating
masses as well as gas forces in the engine.

These vibrations mainly stress the fastenings of the turbocharger on the engine, but also the
casing joints. The stresses are proportional to the accelerations that occur on the turbochar-
ger.
Shaking of the engine causes accelerations in all directions on the rotor of the turbocharger.
The resulting bearing stresses are, however, comparatively low.

The vibration velocity (v) and the vibration acceleration (a) are limited to ensure reliable opera-
tion of the turbocharger.

Measuring high-frequency vibrations on the turbocharger

The existing rotor unbalances generate rotating forces at the rotation frequency which are
partly transferred to the casings via the bearings.
The damping of the plain bearings as well as local vibration effects on the casings greatly af-
fect the amplitudes that can be measured from the outside.
Consequently, no statements regarding the unbalance status of the rotor or the status of the
bearings are possible as a result of a vibration measurement on the outside of the casing.

Characteristic frequencies of the turbocharger

The characteristic frequencies listed below apply for turbochargers which are fitted on an ab-
solutely rigid bracket.

In reality, the values for the characteristic frequencies are lower in the following cases:

 Experience shows that, with a good, rigid turbocharger bracket, they are about 20 to 30 %
lower.
 With a very elastic turbocharger bracket, they can be up to 60 % lower.

The order of the various characteristic frequencies can also vary depending on the design and
stiffness of the engine block and the turbocharger bracket.

The aim must be that the first characteristic frequency of the engine-bracket-turbocharger sys-
tem lies above the ignition frequency of the engine (high matching, bracket as rigid as possi-
ble).

This is not always possible in engines with a large number of cylinders. In such cases, the
characteristic frequencies of the system can be induced in the operating range of the engine
which leads to unacceptably high vibrations.

Measuring locations

Figure 11

Use measuring locations (CH) and (X) for vibration measurements during commissioning of
the engine or for monitoring purposes.

If the specified limit values are not complied with, additional measurements must be taken at
measuring locations (XS), (BH), (NH) and (SU) for a more accurate analysis.
The sensors used must be either screwed onto the casings or affixed using magnets.
A sensor that is suitable for high temperatures must be used for the measuring location (NH).

Limit values for vibrations at measuring point (CH)

The RMS values of the cumulative signal of the vibration velocity and/or the acceleration must
not be exceeded at any of the designated measuring points.

Additionally to be noted

 If the specified limit values are not adhered to, a frequency analysis for the entire tur-
bocharger, including bracket, is recommended for further assessment.
This procedure should always be carried out after prior coordination with ABB Turbo Sys-
tems.
 The frequency ranges correspond to the occurring low-frequency vibrations and excitati-
ons. These can be measured easily using commercially available vibrometers.
 In engines with constant speed, the highest vibration values (total effective values - RMS)
are usually measured at 100 % load.
 In engines with variable speed, the entire speed range must be passed through at the ma-
ximum load possible in order to determine the highest vibration values.
The highest vibration values occur at resonant positions at which the characteristic fre-
quencies of the engine/bracket/turbocharger system concur with the excitation frequencies
of the engine.

5.7 Draining at the gas outlet casing


There are connections on the gas outlet casing for draining the inside of the casing (ope-
ning (O) on the outline drawings).

Draining has the following purpose:

 If there is a boiler leak in the exhaust gas pipe or an ingress of water due to other causes,
the gas outlet casing can be drained.

Recommendation for the drain connection:

 The drain pipe must be fitted at the lowest connection point of the gas outlet casing.
 The drain pipe must be conducted downwards as close as possible after the connection
point.

6 Oil supply
6.1 Introduction
In all operating states, a functioning and carefully executed oil supply is an important prerequi-
site for trouble-free operation of the turbocharger.

This also includes the correct dimensioning and laying of the oil pipes.

The lubrication of the turbocharger is usually carried out with oil from the engine circula-
tion.
Alternatively, a separate lubricating system can be used for the turbocharger.

A separate lubricating system is not included in the ABB Turbo Systems scope of delivery.

Support through ABB Turbo Systems

ABB Turbo Systems can provide support in the construction of the system.

6.2 Requirements on the oil supply

6.2.1 General conditions for installation

Air bubbles in oil pipes


The formation of large air bubbles in oil pipes can reduce or interrupt the oil
supply. The consequences can be serious damage to engine or property.
CAUTION
Oil pipes with elbows conducted upwards must be avoided.

The position and dimension of the connecting flanges for the oil inlet and oil outlet on the
turbocharger are shown in the Outline drawings documentation.
In branches and junctions of several pipes, the main pipe must at least have the total of
the cross sections of the individual pipes before or after the collecting point.
Install oil return flow pipes with an at least 5° greater incline than the maximum admissible
inclined position of the engine.
Only shut-off valves that can be secured against accidental operation are allowed to be
attached.

The lubricating system must be provided with a heating system if the required oil viscosity
cannot be guaranteed when cold.
This prevents any overload of the auxiliary bearing and, hence, damage to the turbo-
charger when starting the engine if the oil is too cold (< 30 °C, in combination with exces-
sively high oil pressures); see section "Commissioning the lubricating system".

6.2.2 Oil supply from the engine circulation

Figure 1

In the case of the oil supply from the engine circulation, the oil inlet pipe after the pump
cooler filter system must be conducted via the shortest route to the turbocharger.
Blow-by air from the turbocharger is mainly discharged via the bearing casing and via a
venting pipe, see Venting the lubricating system section.

6.2.3 Oil supply from separate lubricating system

Figure 2

The oil return flow pipe dissipates all of the blow-by air coming from the turbocharger.
This air is discharged via a venting pipe on the oil tank, see Venting the lubricating system
section.
A lubricating oil temperature of 80 °C at the inlet of the turbocharger is recommended to
improve efficiency.

The throttle valve (a) is integrated in the pressure adjusting unit (42295), depending on the
selected pressure adjusting unit version. The lubricating oil pressure is adjusted at the turbo-
charger inlet.

The oil pressure is throttled as required (poil, in > 2.5 bar). The adjustment is made either during
the test run of the engine or during commissioning of the system, see section Commissioning
the lubricating system.

The throttle valve (a) is adjusted as follows:

Loosen the two screws (b).


Turn the throttle (a) to adjust the oil pressure either according to the manometer (c) or with
the help of a manometer you have installed yourself (to do this, remove sealing plug (d)).
Secure the throttle valve (a) in the adjusted position by tightening the two screws (b).

6.7 Oil filtering

Lubricating oil filtering


Heavily contaminated lubricating oil can cause excessive wear of bearing
parts.
CAUTION
The consequences can be serious damage to engine or property.
Observe the specifications for lubricating oil filtering.

Filtering of the lubricating oil with a mesh width of 0.050 mm is specified for A...-L turbo-
chargers.

Check that the oil filter is clean before commissioning.


If the lubricating system is separate, install a self-cleaning automatic filter in the oil inlet
pipe to the turbocharger.

Recommendation

The following products give good results:

Boll & Kirch automatic filter with integrated bypass

6.8 Venting the lubricating system

Ventilation of the lubricating system


In closed rooms oil mist and oil vapour may form flammable air-mixtures.
WARNING Provide sufficient ventilation.

6.8.1 Requirements of the engine oil circulation

The venting pipe is connected to the bearing casing. The blow-by separating rate is ap-
proximately 80%.
The remainder of the blow-by is discharged through the oil drain pipe into the oil tank of
the engine and must be separated.
The venting pipe must have a constant gradient of at least 5° more than the maximum ad-
missible inclined position of the engine. This prevents accumulation of oil and oil mist in
the pipe.
It is recommend for an oil mist separator to be installed in the venting pipe before it is con-
ducted out into the atmosphere, see section "Oil mist separator".

6.8.2 Additional requirements with separate lubricating system

It is recommend to install an oil mist separator in the venting pipe before the pipe is con-
ducted from the oil tank out into the atmosphere, see Oil mist separator section.

Passive oil mist separator with Rhodius filter

The Rhodius filter or oil mist separator is a maintenance-free, metallic filter. The oil separation
efficiency from the oil mist is approximately 80%.
The installation position, like the flow direction, is vertical. The venting pipe must rise constant-
ly before and after the oil mist separator.
Depending on the size, one single oil mist separator in the dimension shown can be used for
several turbochargers.

6.11 Pre-lubrication, post-lubrication

Pre-lubrication
Serious damage to engine or property can result if the turbocharger is not
supplied with oil from the first moment after starting the engine.
CAUTION
Activate the pre-lubrication device each time before starting the engine.

The pre-lubrication time is at least 5 minutes.

ABB Turbo Systems recommends integrating the pre-lubrication into the engine control.

The post-lubrication time is at least 10 minutes.

If the engine is operated for 5 to 10 minutes in idle mode before stopping, no additional post-
lubrication is required.

6.12 Long-term lubrication in standby operation


If the engine and turbocharger are in standby operation for more than 12 hours with activated
pre-lubrication pump, the oil pressure before the bearings (poil, in) can be reduced to 0.2 bar.

Recommendation: Keep the oil pressure as low as possible.

The maximum admissible oil pressure in the cold operating state (30 °C) is higher than in the
warm operating state (50 °C), see also table "Oil condition".

6.13 Lubrication during flexible cut-out operation


During cut-out operation, the oil supply of the switched-off turbocharger must be active so that
the rotor is on a floating bearing. This ensures that no damage is caused to bearing and rotor
due to engine vibrations.

The same pressure and temperature regulations apply as for standard operation.

6.14 Lubrication at emergency stop


The turbocharger is equipped with a lubricating oil tank which is integrated in the bearing cas-
ing.

If an emergency stop of the engine causes an interruption to the lubricating oil supply, this
integrated lubrication supplies the bearing seats with oil until the rotor has stopped.

Emergency stop of the engine


If the engine and the associated turbocharger are operated after a sudden
interruption to the lubricating oil supply, this can lead to serious damage to
CAUTION
the engine or property with grave consequences.
The emergency stop of the engine must occur no later than 10 seconds
after failure of the oil supply.

7.2 Speed differences with several turbochargers per en-


gine
The speeds of all turbochargers on an engine vary only slightly from each other in standard
operation.

The difference between the highest and the lowest turbocharger speed must not be more than
3 %, relative to the speed limit nBmax.

If this admissible difference range is exceeded, the following steps must be performed:

 Reduce the engine performance immediately to the point at which the maximum turbochar-
ger speed does not exceed 70 % of nBmax.
 If the engine cannot be stopped, it can continue to be driven with this reduced engine per-
formance or turbocharger speed.
 If a turbocharger surges continuously, the engine performance must be reduced further.
 Measure the temperatures in the air lines and exhaust gas pipes from and to the tur-
bochargers and compare with normal values.

If the engine can be stopped temporarily:

 Inspect air lines, exhaust gas pipes and the turbochargers and remedy any malfunctions.
 In any case, contacting the nearest ABB Turbocharging Service Station is recommended.

7.3 Mode of operation


The sealing disc (32109) also turning on the shaft induces voltage pulses at the electromag-
netic speed sensor (86505).
The voltage limiting module limits the amplitudes of the pulses to a maximum value (< ± 15V)
and suppresses the signal noise (< ≈ 1.4V).

The pulse frequency of the speed signal is proportional to that of the rotor. The turbocharger
speed can be determined as follows:

nTL = f / l

nTL Turbocharger speed [rps]


f Frequency of the speed signal [Hz]
I Number of pulses per revolution [ - ]

Recommendations for signal strength

To obtain an output signal that is as strong as possible, ABB Turbo Systems recommend that
the down-circuit evaluation electronics (for example, a tachometer) should have a resistance
of > 10 kΩ and an adaptive trigger level of ~ 0.5 V.

7.6 Tachometer / F/I-converter

7.6.1 Introduction

The T401 F/I-converter (frequency/current) or the T411 tachometer is available for displaying
and converting the turbocharger speed signal. Both devices are identical in terms of functiona-
lity. Unlike the T401, however, the T411 is also equipped with a display.

The parameters of the analogue output (4…20 mA) of both devices are set by ABB Turbo
Systems.

The following parameters (speed ranges) are recommended:

Product Speed range

Open-collector output of tachometer, F/I-converter

Figure 9

The open-collector output provides a square wave signal with constant amplitude. The output
must also be electrically supplied (power supply UL).
It offers the following application options:

 Amplification of the sensor signal to guarantee signal transmission over long signal lines.
 Reduction of the minimum measurable speed (due to the low adaptive trigger level of the
T401 or T411 of 250 mV).
 Use of tachometers without adjustable trigger level as well as tachometers which do not
have an input for inductive speed sensors.

7.6.3 Installation

T401 F/I-converter

The T401 F/I-converter must be installed in a switch cabinet (rails based on EN 50022-35 and

8 Compressor and turbine cleaning

8.1 Cleaning the compressor during operation

Approval by enginebuilder

These instructions for wet cleaning only apply to cleaning with pure water and under the pre-
condition that the enginebuilder approves the process.

General

The contamination of the compressor stage (compressor wheel, wall insert and diffuser) de-
pends on the degree of purity of the taken-in air.

Deposits can form in the flow channels if salt, oil mist or dust are sucked in with the air.

Consequences of contamination:

 Impaired compressor efficiency


 Higher exhaust gas temperatures
 Increased fuel consumption
 Increased rotor unbalance

Periodic cleaning of the compressor during operation prevents or delays any great increase in
the contamination, but never replaces the regular service procedures where the turbocharger
is completely dismantled and the compressor is mechanically cleaned.

Cleaning interval

The interval between the cleaning cycles depends greatly on the operating conditions. Clean-
ing should normally take place about every 50 hours of operation.
If the specified cleaning intervals are incompatible with operation of the engine, contact ABB
Turbo Systems.

Enginebuilder Manual / A100-L, A200-L
8 Compressor and turbine cleaning Page 4 / 9

Cleaning method and operating state

The compressor is cleaned during operation using the wet cleaning method. It is carried out at
an engine load of 25 ... 85 %.
This cleaning method has been tested and approved by ABB Turbo Systems.

Principle of wet cleaning

To clean the compressor stage during operation, water is injected before the compressor
wheel.

The water does not act as a solvent. The coating is removed by the mechanical action of the
impacting droplets. The process is particularly suitable as long as the fouling is not too ad-
vanced.

Corrosion and deposits when cleaning


Salt water and cooling water treatment substances damage and adversely
affect turbocharger parts.
CAUTION
 Never use salt water, but only pure water for cleaning.

Cleaning several turbochargers

If several turbochargers are installed on an engine, it is recommended to clean one compres-


sor after the other.

Volume of water for cleaning the compressor


Uncontrolled volumes of water can cause great damage in the turbocharger
and especially in the engine.
CAUTION
 Do not guide water pipes to the filler openings.

8.2 Cleaning turbine blades and nozzle ring during opera-


tion
Combustion of heavy fuel oil in diesel engines causes contamination of the turbine blades and
nozzle rings of the turbochargers.
Contamination increases with time, which is why regular and properly carried out cleaning
operations are important to remove any deposits.

Contaminated turbine components lead to a decrease in turbocharger efficiency. Furthermore,


the exhaust gas temperature after the cylinders can rise and the charging pressure in the air
receiver can drop.
Moreover, contamination of the turbine leads to rotor unbalance. A very high level of contami-
nation can lead to intolerably high rotor unbalance.

Despite periodic cleaning during operation, experience shows that overhauls where the tur-
bine and nozzle ring (or VTG) are mechanically cleaned cannot be omitted.

Interval for dry cleaning

The interval between the cleaning cycles depends greatly on the operating conditions. Clean-
ing should normally take place about every 50 hours of operation.

Cleaning method

The turbine and the nozzle ring (or VTG) are cleaned during operation using the dry cleaning
method.
This cleaning method has been tested and approved by ABB Turbo Systems.

Principle of dry cleaning

During dry cleaning, the dirt coating is removed by the mechanical action of the impacting sol-
ids (granulate).

Operating state

The dry cleaning of the turbine-end components is carried out at an engine load of
25 ... 85 %.

Cleaning several turbochargers

If several turbochargers are installed on an engine, it is recommended to clean one turbine


after the other.
