You have the Oscars, you have the Michelin Star AND you have the one annual Award that we turbo experts value much more. Its full name is the "Cummins Turbo Technologies Distributor Excellence Award. Loosely translated, "We at Holset are very pleased with MasterTurbo's role as an expert distributor. They are doing an excellent job." Not our own words, because we received this professional award from none other than Holset. The well-known makers of turbochargers, an A-brand that we have enjoyed working with for a long time. What connects us: only top quality is good enough. It gets you the furthest. And in the case of turbochargers, also the fastest.
The name Cummins is from the parent company that produces Holset turbochargers. There they have been developing excellent parts for the aftermarket for over 100 years, according to the strict requirements of OE quality. Locations in Europe, Asia, North and South America. The innovative brand Holset is one of its popular products. Thanks to turbochargers that always show the result of 'excellent' at tests. At Holset, the engineers are always looking for improved fuel economy (while maintaining performance), higher efficiency, if possible lower costs and lower emissions. Good example: in-house turbocompounding and waste heat expansion techniques. |
Another thing they have perfected at Holset: the VG technology (from Variable Geometry). A turbocharger that thinks with your engine. Not only good for saving costs, also good for the environment, because thanks to the VG technology, the engine uses fuel more efficiently on short trips. This means: more economical driving and less emission of NOx. Better known as nitrogen.
These turbochargers work efficiently, they last a long time and they have a number of sophisticated solutions and techniques "under the hood" that have made Holset the market leader. By the way, a conscious choice by Cummins and Holset: they are the only manufacturer to focus exclusively on turbo technology for medium to heavy duty diesel engines. That attention to detail is paying off. Behind the scenes, they are already working hard on the turbochargers of the future, a generation of turbochargers with, for example, new, improved bearing systems and even more performance from the compressor stages. With the arrival of the Holset 200 series, there are now Holset turbochargers specifically for the lighter engine. Holset makes some 15 common product lines with codes Holset HX or Holset HE, all with their own specific 'airflow'. Expressed in 'total pressure ratio' and kg's of airflow. All with the qualities to earn the name 'Genuine Holset turbocharger'.
Some of the techniques that are "typical Holset":
• Water-cooled housings for bearings and turbine, especially for applications such as marine, high temperature, gas;
• Cast iron compressor covers, resistant to high temperatures;
• Electric actuators, that means: accurate, fast response and self-diagnosis;
• Fixed Geometry, Variable and Wastegate Geometry;
• The "Two Stage" or two-stage system to deliver enough horsepower in a compact engine.
A few examples of Holset turbos in the MasterTurbo's range:
Affordable and reliable alternative to a new Holset turbo: a Holset ReMan turbo, an initiative Holset took because competitors' ReMan turbos did not always come out of the test favorably.
