Read and take down the charge air pressure and exhaust gas temperatures at a reference point (at 75 % or 100 % of the output) before and after washing to check the washing effect. The increase of charge air pressure could be used for adjusting the washing interval, which could adjusted within 50 to 600 hours. The washing interval could be adjusted from 50 to 600 hours. That's why they must be adjusted based on the experience gained during engine operation if necessary later on. The washing intervals depend on the fuel quality and operating conditions.

Due to these deposits the charge air pressure will be increased. of 2 1 st Edition (12/03) S_ en.docĤ Part S S45(12/2003) Service Information Exhaust Turbocharger Turbine cleaning Valid for TC type: R3-2, R4-2, R4-3 and R5-3 Valid for engines: M20 and M25 from CAT / MaK Cleaning of turbine Heavy fuel oil operation results in contamination and deposits on nozzle ring and turbine wheel reducing the efficiency. After exceeding the lifetime the nozzle ring should be replaced in case of fundamental change of performance data as charge air pressure and exhaust temperature. The lifetime of the nozzle ring is approximately 12,000 hours, but it depends on HFO quality and operating conditions.
