Extends Turbo Life by Reducing Failures
Caused by Hot Shutdowns & Bearing Oil Starvation
 |
Stage 1 - Engine Startup
When first installed, the accumulator of the TBS 240 is empty. When the engine is started, the accumulator is charged by hydraulic pressure from the engine oil pump. The piston is pushed back to the end of its stroke.

Stage 2 - Engine Shutdown
The piston remains in this position as long as there is full oil pressure in the engine. The instant the engine is stopped, the oil pressure drops and the piston is driven forward by the pressure of the spring. Oil is forced into the turbocharger bearings at 20 psi (1.4 bar) for approximately 4 minutes while the hot turbocharger rotor is spinning down. The oil supplied from the accumulator, lubricates and cools the bearings and rotor.

Installation
Installation is very straight forward and is simplified with the universal installation kit. The TBS 240 can be mounted on the engine or at a position up to 2 meters away. The installation kit consists of PTFE stainless covered pipes, lube oil check valve and brackets.
Optional pre-lube electrical circuit shown, no electrical connections required for post-lube TBS 240 installations.
