The air and exhaust systems deliver clean combustion air to the cylinders and carry exhaust gas away, and restriction on either side costs power and raises operating temperature. This group covers air filters and housings, inlet manifolds, charge air coolers, exhaust manifolds, bellows, silencers, and associated gaskets and clamps. Generating set installations depend on correctly sized exhaust systems: excessive back pressure from an undersized or restricted run reduces power, raises exhaust temperature and shortens turbocharger life. Flexible bellows accommodate thermal expansion and isolate engine movement from the fixed exhaust run, and a failed bellows transmits that movement into the manifold and turbocharger.

Excessive back pressure reduces power, raises exhaust temperature and shortens turbocharger life. It is usually caused by an undersized, over-long or restricted exhaust run.
It stops isolating engine movement and thermal expansion from the fixed exhaust run, transmitting loads into the manifold and turbocharger and often cracking them.
At the interval specified, or sooner in dusty conditions. A restriction indicator gives a better guide than elapsed time.
