What to do if ABB TPS48-F32 has charge air pressure too low?
- C
  Charles HubbardSep 3, 2025
  If the charge air pressure is too low, there could be several reasons. The air receiver or the gas piping between the engine and the turbine might be leaking. A poorly adjusted injection system also can cause this issue, so correct it. The manometer display might be providing a wrong reading, so replace the manometer, or the line to the manometer might be leaking, so repair the leak. A contaminated filter silencer causing excessive loss of pressure can also be the reason, so clean it. In some cases, the compressor/turbine might be damaged, which requires contacting an ABB Turbocharging Service Station. High exhaust counterpressure can also cause low charge air pressure, so clean or repair the boiler or exhaust silencer.

Why is my ABB TPS48-F32 Industrial Equipment having a sluggish start-up?
- M
  Michael ChambersSep 10, 2025
  If your ABB Industrial Equipment experiences a sluggish start-up, it could be due to a few reasons. The turbocharger might be contaminated and need cleaning. Alternatively, there may be damage to the bearing, in which case you should contact an ABB Turbocharging Service Station. Other potential causes include a rubbing rotor or a foreign object present in the turbocharger.

What to do if ABB TPS48-F32 Industrial Equipment has turbocharger surging?
- D
  Daniel HammondSep 4, 2025
  If the turbocharger is surging, the guard in front of it may be contaminated or damaged, requiring cleaning or replacement. Another potential cause is a contaminated filter silencer or diffuser, which needs cleaning. Additionally, a contaminated cooler could be the source of the problem, so clean it. A blocked charge air duct also can cause turbocharger surging.

  Michael WangSep 7, 2025
  If your ABB Industrial Equipment experiences charge air pressure that is too low, several factors could be responsible. You can repair any leaks in the air receiver or correct a poorly adjusted injection system. Additionally, you should replace the manometer if the display is wrong, or repair the leak if the line to the manometer is leaking. Clean the filter silencer if it is contaminated, causing excessive pressure loss. Finally, clean or repair the boiler or exhaust silencer if the exhaust counterpressure is too high.
