280 - 300 °
°°
°C.
NOTE
Particularly if the engine is running on heavy fuel, deposits will settle down on the tur-
bine blades decreasing the charger efficiency and increasing the bearing loads by
unbalance. These deposits must be removed by injecting fresh water (without additi-
on of detergents or solvents). The washing intervals depend on the fuel quality and
the operating conditions, and they can only be fixed by experience in operation.
It must be absolutely prevented that water enters the exhaust manifold between the
washing operations. For this reason, the hose piece (Fig.1/1) is to be removed after
washing.
DANGER
Attention, danger of burning!
The waste water runs off with a
temperature of > 70 °
