How TPR and VTG helps you adapt to fluctuating operating conditions
When you combine VTG with the TPR turbocharger, your long-haul locomotive engine can save as much as 4% on fuel a year, at a wider range of temperatures and altitudes. So you’ll benefit from lower costs, better performance and more flexibility, no matter where you are.
By adapting air delivery to operating conditions, your engine will cope better with the constant fluctuations typical of rail applications. Think load modulation and ambient conditions.
