The brand-new A255-L turbocharger is maximized for tiny and also tool birthed two-stroke diesel and also gas engines
Responding to boosting need for small and also effective turbocharger innovation for aquatic engines, ABB Turbocharging has actually released the brand-new A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers.
Optimized for tiny and also tool birthed two-stroke diesel and also gas engines, the brand-new turbocharges have actually been reduced from the tested and also reputable A100-L and also A200-L styles. They maintain crucial style functions including the most up to date blades part innovations. Their small style permits setup versatility in modern-day, space-optimized engine areas.
Delivering the high-power thickness generally anticipated from bigger choices, the brand-new A255-L and also A260-L provide the aquatic market innovation that provides even more power thickness yet a smaller sized structure dimension.
For shipowners, the brand-new turbochargers supply high effectiveness, reduced gas intake and also discharges. They additionally provide reduced upkeep prices, enabling maximized complete price of possession.
“We believe further focus will be placed on turbocharger efficiency in the future, alongside higher compressor pressure ratio demands, to enable two-stroke engines to reach their full potential,” claims.Alexandros Karamitsos, head of international sales for ABB’s low-speed turbocharger product. “Our A255-L and A260-L turbochargers will support this demand, delivering the highest levels of turbocharger efficiency and power density while enabling small-bore two-stroke engines to achieve lower fuel consumption, and complying with latest emissions regulations.”
Karamitsos includes that yhe A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers are created to operate all gas kinds and also on engines defined for both IMO Tier II or Tier III discharges degrees.
Similarly to various other turbocharger items in ABB’s A200 collection, a complete variety of matching parts will certainly be offered to guarantee a maximized on-engine spec.
ABB’s drydock-to-drydock solution idea will certainly additionally be offered, without any requirement for intermediate turbocharger evaluation.
LNG
More shipowners are picking to utilize melted gas (LNG) as gas as a way of compling with the IMO2020 sulfur cap.
LNG can be made use of on two-stroke reduced stress and also greater stress double gas engines.
ABB notes that the brand-new A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers can be made use of on reduced stress double gas engines to maximize burning, enhancing engine effectiveness and also enabling the decrease of GHG discharges. The high turbocharging effectiveness given by the brand-new A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers guarantees that high air-fuel proportion is preserved in high-load procedure, therefore decreasing the propensity for rapid burning which can detrimentally influence procedure and also discharges. The A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers additionally help with the use of exhaust reduction innovations for NOx and also SOx decrease.
Due to the substantial effectiveness attained, the brand-new A255-L and also A260-L turbochargers can decrease the power effectiveness style index (EEDI) of smaller sized freight vessels in the dimension variety of 10,000- 4,000 dwt that utilize tiny and also tool birthed two-stroke engines. These normally power vessels such as bulk service providers, vessels, container feeders and also cars and truck service providers.
