Description:

This is a marine exhaust gas turbocharger designed to increase the efficiency and power output of large diesel engines used in ships. The turbocharger utilizes exhaust gas energy from the engine to drive a turbine, which compresses the intake air and forces it into the engine cylinders at higher pressure. This results in improved combustion efficiency, higher power, and reduced fuel consumption.

Application:

Primarily used in marine main engines and auxiliary engines.

Suitable for large two-stroke and four-stroke diesel engines.

Commonly found in cargo ships, tankers, and offshore vessels.

Manufacturer Background:

BBC (Brown, Boveri & Cie), later merged into ABB, is one of the pioneers of turbocharging technology.

IHI (Japan) produced these turbochargers under license from ABB, ensuring global supply and servicing for marine industries.

👉 In short, this item is an IHI-ABB VTR160 Exhaust Gas Turbocharger, a critical component in marine diesel engines, ensuring efficient performance and fuel economy.
