Turbocharger Upgrades (EPLO, HPT)

Model EPLO; HPT

Retrofit upgrades including Engine Part Load Optimization (EPLO) and High-pressure tuning (HPT) to improve two-stroke engine efficiency at part and low load.

Description

Accelleron offers turbocharger component upgrades that keep existing engines efficient as operating profiles change, particularly at part and low load.

Key features

  • Engine Part Load Optimization (EPLO): combines turbocharging component upgrades with engine derating, typically carried out within a port stay of one or two days; cuts fuel consumption and emissions by an average of 3%, in some cases more
  • High-pressure tuning (HPT): for two-stroke engines, the exhaust valve closes slightly later than with conventional tuning and the turbocharger specification is adapted accordingly
  • HPT improves part- and low-load efficiency without extra hardware such as an exhaust gas bypass

Applications

  • Older vessels with two-stroke main engines operating at reduced load
  • Fuel and emissions reduction on existing fleets
