How to Identify the Right ABB Turbocharger Spare Part
ABB turbocharger part numbers are stamped on the component nameplate and listed in the turbocharger instruction manual. When ordering spare parts, always provide:
- Turbocharger type and serial number (e.g., TPS57-F32, S/N 12345678)
- ABB part number from the spare parts list in the instruction manual
- Quantity required
- Required delivery port and timeline
If the instruction manual is not available onboard, Marinexa can help identify parts from the turbocharger type and engine maker — we maintain reference data for all major ABB series.
ABB Turbocharger Maintenance Intervals and Parts Planning
ABB recommends the following maintenance intervals as a general guide (always refer to the specific instruction manual for your model):
- Every 4,000 hours: Inspect and water-wash compressor side. Check lube oil filter. Measure bearing clearances.
- Every 8,000–12,000 hours: Replace journal bearings and thrust bearings. Replace labyrinth seals. Inspect nozzle ring for fouling and erosion.
- Every 16,000–24,000 hours (or class survey): Full overhaul. Replace rotor assembly if worn beyond limits. Replace nozzle ring, diffuser plates, and all seals.
Vessels trading on high-sulphur fuel or operating at slow steaming speeds may require shorter intervals due to increased turbine fouling and condensation acid attack.
Genuine ABB vs Reconditioned Turbocharger Parts
Both options are available from Marinexa, and the right choice depends on the job:
- Genuine ABB OEM parts — Recommended for rotating components (rotor shaft, bearing housing), class-approved repairs, and vessels under tight manufacturer warranty terms. Full traceability and certificates available.
- Quality reconditioned ABB parts — Sourced from Alang ship recycling yard, dimensionally inspected, tested. Suitable for structural components, casings, nozzle rings, and diffuser assemblies. Typically 35–55% cheaper than new OEM. Ideal for budget-conscious planned maintenance.
