Intended use
Use on internal combustion engines
Power2 from ABB Turbo Systems is intended for charging internal combustion engines.
To ensure compliance with the machinery directive 2006/42/EC when using on gas engines,
the Power2 must be operated in an engine room classified as "not at risk of explosion". This
is in accordance with the position paper [2] relating to ATEX issued by EUROMOT [1].
The specific operating limits of Power2 were determined on the basis of information from
the enginebuilder about the intended use. This data is given on the rating plate and is gener-
ally different for the low-pressure stage and high-pressure stage.
ABB accepts no liability and rejects all warranty claims for any non-intended uses.
