Aircraft Maintenance TroubleShoot > Aircraft Turbocharger & Controller

Beechcraft 76-up Turbocharger System

1. Variable absolute pressure system with poppet-type wastegate]
2. High mounted turbos with scavenged oil system.
3. The variable absolute pressure controller (direct-sensing without cover) works much like the non-variable absolute pressure controller in that it senses deck pressure, compares it to a reference absolute pressure, and adjusts the wastegate butterfly (controlling turbo speed) to maintain sea-level horsepower at varying altitudes. It differs from the non- variable version, however, in that it is directly linked to the engine throttle, and, through a system of cams and followers, adjusts itself to varying power settings, achieving the optimum deck pressure for a given throttle movement.

A pressure relief valve, set slightly in excess of maximum deck pressure, is provided to prevent damaging overboost in the event of a system malfunction. A sonic venturi is incorporated to provide a constant source of compressed air to the cabin pressurization system.
