T- TPL Series Turbocharger Bearing Thrust Bearing In Engine Lube
Oil System
T- TPL series turbocharger design features:
T- TPL series turbocharger includes T- TPL-A series (T- TPL65, T- TPL69, T- TPL73 and T- TPL77) and T- TPL-B series (T- TPL73-B, T- TPL77-B, T- TPL80-B, T- TPL85-B, T-
TPL91-B).
- The T- TPL-A series turbocharger is for large medium-speed diesel and gas engines, with a power output
range from2,500kW to 12,500kW.
- Turbine: The T- TPL-A turbocharger is axial turbine for high
efficiencies and high volume flow rates.
- Compressor: The T- TPL-A comressors ensure the high volume flow
rates which allow optimized matching to different engine
applications. Its single-piece, splitter-bladed aluminum alloy
wheels with backswept blades ensure high efficiencies and wide
compressor maps. its pressure ratio is from 4.2 up to 5.0 based on
different design.
- Bearing: The T- TPL-A bearing assembly lubricated directly by the engine lube oil system,
plain bearings can run up to 36,000 hours before being overhauled.
- T- TPL-B series turbocharger is designed primarily for large
two-stroke marine diesel engines. These turbochargers are simple,
rugged and compact to keep your running cost low. Five frames cover
an engine output range of 3,000kW to 28,000kW.
- Turbine: The T- TPL-B turbocharger is axial turbine for very high
efficiencies and high volume flow rates by the 2-stroke diesel
engine market.
- Compressor: The T- TPL-B comressors ensure the high volume flow
rates which allow optimized matching to different engine
applications. Its single-piece, splitter-bladed aluminum alloy
wheels with backswept blades ensure a wide compressor map and peak
efficiencies of more than 86%. its pressure ratio is up to 4.5.
- Bearing: The T- TPL-B bearing assembly lubricated directly by the
engine lube oil system, plain bearings are designed to run up to
36,000 hours before being exchanged. The radial bearing bushes are
fixed with screws and centered in a squeeze oil film damper.

Description of turbo bearing and turbocharger thrust bearing:
T- TPL series Turbo Bearing / Turbocharger Bearings play an important role in turbochargers. They not only ensure safe
and reliable high-speed rotation of the rotor, but also ensure that
the rotor is fixed in the correct position. Therefore, the
reliability of the bearing is extremely relevant to the normal
operation of the supercharger and the diesel engine. Turbocharger
bearings are divided into rolling and sliding, marine superchargers
mostly use rolling bearings, in addition to thrust bearings.
A thrust bearing is a particular type of rotary bearing. Like other
rotary bearings they permit rotation between parts, but they are
designed to support a high axial load while doing this (parallel to
the shaft). Different kinds of thrust ball bearings are used to
support different amounts of axial load.(From Wikipedia)
