  • Wärtsilä 32 Product Guide, Chapter 10 (Combustion Air System), Section 10.2 "Combustion air system design" + Fig. 10-1 "Engine room ventilation, turbocharger with air filter" (edition a22, 13 March 2018)

The Wärtsilä 32 Turbocharger Air Filter is an air filtration component in the combustion air system of Wärtsilä 32 marine diesel engines. Wärtsilä states that combustion air is usually taken from the engine room through a filter on the turbocharger. This reduces the risk of low temperatures and contamination of the combustion air, which should be free from sea water, dust and fumes.

Application Notes

Filtration of combustion air within the turbocharger air-intake arrangement of the Wärtsilä 32 marine engine. Combustion air is usually taken from the engine room through a filter on the turbocharger. Wärtsilä states that this reduces the risk of low temperatures and contamination of the combustion air, which should be free from sea water, dust and fumes. The exact filter arrangement and replacement specification should be verified against the installed turbocharger configuration and applicable Wärtsilä documentation before replacement.

Additional Notes

The Wärtsilä 32 Turbocharger Air Filter is identified in the Wärtsilä 32 Product Guide as a filter on the turbocharger within the combustion air system. Wärtsilä states that combustion air is usually taken from the engine room through this filter, reducing the risk of low temperatures and contamination of the combustion air. The combustion air should be free from sea water, dust and fumes. The cited Wärtsilä 32 documentation does not specify the exact filter construction, filter media, filtration characteristics, dimensions or manufacturer part number. These details should therefore be verified against the installed component and applicable Wärtsilä 32 documentation before ordering or replacement.

Where the combustion air duct is connected directly to the turbocharger with a flexible connection piece, Wärtsilä specifies that an external filter must be installed in the duct to protect the turbocharger and prevent fouling of the charge air cooler. The permissible total pressure drop in the duct is 2 kPa maximum.
