Explanations regarding the rating plate
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 n
Bmax
, t
Bmax
can considerably shorten the recommended
replacement intervals. In such cases ABB recommends contacting the nearest ABB Tur-
bocharging Service Station.
n
Mmax
, t
Mmax
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.
