2 Safety / 2.1 Introduction
© Copyright 2020 ABB. All rights reserved. HZTL455311P0007_EN Rev.A July 2020
2 Safety
2.1 Introduction
State of the art
Turbochargers manufactured by ABB Turbocharging are state of the art and comply with the
respective health and safety standards in effect at the time the turbocharger was built. This
ensures safe operation of the turbocharger.
CE conformity information
ABB turbochargers comply with the Machinery Directive 2006/42/EC and are partly com-
pleted machinery as defined by Article 2 g.
Residual risks
Nevertheless, there may be some residual risks during operation of and work on the tur-
bocharger which:
¡are caused by the turbocharger itself or its accessories.
¡are caused by the operating equipment used or supplies and materials.
¡are a consequence of insufficient compliance with safety instructions.
All of the instructions contained within this chapter must be followed when working on the
turbocharger.
Responsibility of the operating company
In awareness of its responsibility, the operating company must ensure that only authorised
personnel work on the turbocharger, who:
¡Correspond to the target group (see Definition of target group →2).
¡Are versed in the general and locally applicable regulations for occupational safety and
accident prevention
¡Are equipped with the prescribed personal protective equipment
¡Have been instructed in the use of the turbocharger.
The safety-conscious work of the personnel and adherence to the assembly instructions
must be checked periodically.
Suitable working materials and personal protective equipment must be kept in a perfect
condition.

2 Safety / 2.2 Lifting of loads
© Copyright 2020 ABB. All rights reserved. HZTL455311P0007_EN Rev.A July 2020
2.2 Lifting of loads
WARNING
Suspended loads
Loads that are not attached according to regulations can cause injury to
personnel or fatal accidents.
uLoads must always be fastened to properly functional lifting gear with a
sufficient load limit.
uPay attention to the correct attachment of loads on the crane hook.
uPeople must not stand beneath suspended loads.
Wear safety gloves to protect against mechanical hazards.
Wear safety helmet.
Fig.1: Attachment of loads on the crane hook
Fig.2: Attachment angle
If there are two or more suspension points, the attachment angle of 45° must not be ex-
ceeded. This prevents excessive loading due to diagonal pull.
uUse a suitable edge guard if there are sharp edges.
uThe assembly devices must be completely screwed in and must not unscrew during use.
uUse assembly devices only for the described applications.

© Copyright 2020 ABB. All rights reserved. HZTL455311P0007_EN Rev.A July 2020
5 Storage of new turbochargers and
spare parts
Storage of new turbochargers and spare parts up to 6 months
New turbochargers and spare parts can be stored in sealed packaging without additional
mothballing measures for up to 6months from the date of delivery (marked by the VCI label
on the package).
Fig.12: Volatile Corrosion Inhibitor (VCI)
Only dry rooms in which the relative humidity is between 40…70 % and no condensation can
form are suitable for storage.
Storage of new turbochargers and spare parts for more than 6 months
WARNING
Protection of health when handling VCIs
VCI products are not hazardous in the sense of the Hazardous Substances
Ordinance. Nevertheless, the following points are to be observed when
handling VCIs:
uObserve specifications in the safety data sheet
uEnsure good room ventilation.
uDo not eat, drink or keep food at the workplace while working with VCIs.
uClean hands and face after working with VCIs.
uFor further information refer to www.branopac.com.
Wear safety gloves to protect against mechanical hazards.
The following mothballing measures are required every 6months:
uOpen the package.
uRemove the VCI corrosion protection emitter from the package and replace it with a new,
identical VCI corrosion protection emitter. New VCI corrosion protection emitters can be
obtained at www.branopac.com.
uDispose of the old VCI corrosion protection emitter in an environmentally compatible
manner, professionally and in accordance with local regulations.
uSeal the package. The better the external seal is designed, the more permanent the pro-
tection.

5 Storage of new turbochargers and spare parts / 
© Copyright 2020 ABB. All rights reserved. HZTL455311P0007_EN Rev.A July 2020
Long-term storage of turbochargers
The turbochargers will be prepared for prolonged storage by ABB Turbocharging on re-
quest. The package is equipped with a hygrometer (see illustration).
Fig.13: Package with hygrometer
The following measures are required every 6months:
uCheck the hygrometer(02) in the sight-glass. There is an opening(01) in the wooden
crate which allows this check to be carried out. When the display field has changed colour
at the 70% level, the maximum permissible humidity has been exceeded. In this case the
turbocharger must be inspected by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station and repacked.
uInspect the package for damage. If the package is damaged, the turbocharger must be in-
spected by an ABB Turbocharging Service Station and repacked.
After every 3 years the following work steps must be performed by an ABB Turbocharging
Service Station:
¡Inspect the components
¡Replace the desiccant agent
¡Repackage the components.
If the 70% display field of the hygrometer(02) has not changed colour and the package is
undamaged, the turbocharger can be placed into operation without any prior testing by an
ABB Turbocharging Service Station.
Unpacking turbochargers
The corrosion protection effect ends after the material is unpacked from the VCI package.
To avoid the formation of condensation, the surroundings and the content of the package
must have the same temperature during unpacking.
