Product information ABB Turbocharging TPL..-C
Power up your performance 75 % of a diesel engine s power relies on one vital component the turbocharger. While higher power and efficiency are the ultimate aims of turbocharged engine development, there is increasing emphasis today on a new requirement lower engine emissions. TPL turbochargers make a vital contribution in all three of these areas. The TPL..-C series was developed for advanced medium-speed, 4-stroke diesel and gas engines in the power range of 3,000 kw to 12,000 kw per turbo charger. A compact, modular design with minimized number of parts makes the TPL..-C easy to install and service. Customers benefit from low lifecycle costs and longer times between overhauls. High turbocharger efficiency and compressor pressure ratios reduce fuel consumption and increase engine power output while helping customers satisfy the new environmental requirements coming into force. 2
Performance you can rely on The TPL..-C is rugged, reliable and compact, for peak performance over a long operational lifetime. TPL..-C turbochargers combine the proven TPL design with new features that cater to the needs of advanced 4-stroke, medium-speed diesel and gas engines. Rugged and highly reliable, the TPL..-C is designed for a long operational life. It meets customers as well as end-users need for a simpler construction with fewer parts, greater efficiency at higher pressures, and reduced engine emissions. Tried and tested ABB performs a comprehensive series of qualification tests to ensure the total reliability of its turbochargers. Overall reliability of the TPL..-C is also improved by the special design of the bearing assembly, which features a free-floating thrust disc. A sturdy foot and newly designed filter silencer ensure good mechanical behaviour and reliability for the TPL..-C. Vibration is minimized. 3

Example of compressor map for TPL 67-C c [-] 5.5 5.0 4.5 Compressor The high volume flows achieved with the TPL..-C compressors allow optimized matching to different engine applications. High efficiencies and wide compressor maps are ensured by single-piece, splitter-bladed aluminium alloy wheels with backswept blades. Market requirements are covered by a range of different compressor stages. Optional compressor cooling extends the field of application for aluminium alloy wheels. TPL..-C compressors also feature air recirculation for a better surge margin and enlarged map widths.

Design features Bearings and casings Bearing lifetime Benefiting from experience gained with over 50,000 ABB turbochargers with plain bearings in service worldwide, TPL bearings are designed to run for 36,000 hours before being changed. ABB developed the new bearing assembly for direct lubrication by the engine lube oil system. The main axial bearing consists of a free-floating thrust disc with profiles on both sides, rotating at about half the rotor speed. This ensures thick oil films, offering extra-high resistance to wear caused by contaminated oil. Disc wear is also reduced by the application of an extremely hard coating. The radial bearing bushes are fixed with screws and centered in a squeeze oil film damper. Optimized casing design TPL..-C casings are optimized for applications on 4-stroke engines. Excellent flow dynamics and minimized thermal stress are ensured. Features include integrated connections for the waste gate and for temperature and pressure measurement. Casings are insulated to keep surface temperatures and noise levels as low as possible.
