Turbo compressor impeller (compressor wheel) description:
T- TPS series turbo compressor impeller is made of aluminium alloy or the more expensive titanium. ufactured from a single casting it is located on the rotor shaft by splines. Aluminium impellers have a limited life, due to creep, which is dictated by the final air temperature. Often the temperature of air leaving the impeller can be as high as 200°C. The life of the impeller under these circumstances may be limited to about 70000 hours.
