Condition of engine lubricating oil
The turbocharger normally remains mounted on the engine. Mothballing
a turbocharger depends on the condition of the lubricating oil:
¡ If the total acid number (TAN) is lower than 2 mg KOH/g, no meas-
ures have to be taken.
¡
If the engine lubricating oil is replaced by preserving oil before taking
the engine out of operation and this is circulated by the pre-lubrica-
tion pump, no measures have to be taken. Any remaining old engine
oil will therefore be flushed away and the bearing sections largely
protected against corrosion.
