Zusammenfassung:Wastegated turbochargers all use actuators to manipulate the wastegate valve which controls turbine wheel bypass of exhaust gas energy. The diaphragms in these actuators are susceptible to foreign material damage. This damage is minimized by the addition of a boot around the actuator shaft, preventing ingress of foreign materials and fluids which could be detrimental to actuator life.
