Manual for TPL69-A30

The turbocharger is a turbomachine consisting of a turbine and a compressor mounted on a common shaft. Exhaust gases from the diesel engine drive the turbine wheel, which in turn drives the compressor wheel. The compressor draws in fresh air, compresses it, and forces it into the engine cylinders. Air is drawn through the filter silencer into the compressor wheel, then through the diffuser and out of the compressor casing. The rotor is supported by plain bearings lubricated by the engine's oil circuit. Some versions include a compressor wheel cooling system.
