The Bomag 05714573 Turbocharger is a genuine OEM component designed for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors. Sourced directly from Bomag, this turbocharger delivers an exact fit and meets the original engineering specifications for these heavy-duty machines. It is compatible with both the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB, making it the correct replacement choice when servicing either model. When turbocharger performance degrades, restoring it with a genuine OEM part keeps engine output and fuel efficiency where the manufacturer intended.
Key Features
- Genuine OEM Turbocharger Construction — built to the same tolerances and materials as the original unit, ensuring correct boost pressure delivery for the engine in these high-demand compactor applications
- Direct Drop-In Replacement — engineered to match the original mounting configuration, inlet and outlet dimensions, and oil feed connections of the factory-installed unit for a straightforward swap
- Confirmed Fitment — verified for BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB refuse and landfill compactors using Bomag part number 05714573
- Restored Engine Performance — a functioning turbocharger maintains the compressed airflow the engine needs to produce full rated power; a worn or failed unit causes sluggish acceleration, black smoke, and elevated fuel consumption under load
- Long-Term Engine Protection — correct boost levels prevent the engine from running lean or over-fueling, reducing the risk of cylinder and valve damage on these demanding landfill machines
A turbocharger uses exhaust gas energy to spin a turbine that forces compressed air into the engine's intake, allowing the engine to burn more fuel and produce significantly more power than it could through natural aspiration alone. On heavy refuse and landfill compactors like the BC 972 RB and BC 1172 RB, which operate under sustained high-load conditions, the turbocharger is critical to maintaining the torque and horsepower needed to process and compact material effectively. When the turbocharger fails — whether through bearing wear, seal failure, or compressor damage — the engine loses power, fuel efficiency drops, and excessive exhaust smoke is produced; left unaddressed, a failed unit can allow oil to enter the intake and cause serious internal engine damage.
