With the new TCA series we have refined the proven technology of the most successful NA series. The integrated design simplifies installation on the engine and maintenance becomes easier than ever before. Advanced materials allow for increased lifetime. The TCA sets the new standard for axial turbochargers and is featuring following benefits:
- For engine outputs from 2,100 to 30,000 kW per turbocharger
- Maximum pressure ratio of 5.2
- Inboard bearing arrangement
- High performance floating bearings for minimised mechanical losses and optimised damping behaviour
- Newly developed compressor wheel with reduced noise emission and increased efficiency
- Compressor wheel change with basic tools and no need of rebalancing the complete rotor
- Thrust bearing inspection without shaft removal
- Easy replacement of individual turbine blades
- Integrated oil piping, sealing air and venting system for simple installation to the engine
- Entirely water-free design
- Integrated containment area
- Reduced number of parts
- Market introduction 2002
