12.3 Scavenge air
The turbocharger compresses the air from the engine room or from outside for the scavenge air.
The air must be as clean as possible to keep the wear of cylinder liner, piston rings,
turbocharger compressor etc to a minimum. Silencers are installed to the suction part. The
silencers have filter mats in them, which help to keep the air clean.
The filter mats must be serviced and/or cleaned regularly. For this data, refer to the
turbocharger manual.
