Between the opening on the suction side (A) and the opening The pressure side (B) is located in the operating chamber for the compressor (50).

This is formed by the outer housing and the two contra-rotating helical spindles 1 and 2 (50/1, 50/2). A tight gap is achieved to ensure a seal of the two helical spindles themselves and to the housing.

There is a constant velocity transmission (50/3) located outside the operating chamber which allows contact-free rotation of both helical spindles.

The compressor is switched on by the magnetic clutch for the mechanical charger (Y2/1) on the pulley wheel.

Translation of power between the compressor and the engine is governed by the difference between the pressures on the two pulley wheels. The supercharger turns at approximately twice the speed of the engine.

No setting or maintenance operations are necessary at the supercharger. Lubrication of the charger transmission is "lubrication for life".

IMPORTANT

The scope of delivery includes the compressor with magnetic clutch for the mechanical supercharger, pulley wheel and guide pulley.
