Diesel Generator Tech

Many users don't follow the operational procedures when using diesel generator sets, which will affect the normal operation and lifespan of generators. To help you out with this, here are 7 common mistakes to avoid when using   diesel engine generators . 1. Loading without prelubrication and warmup after cold starts on diesel generators Cold starting a diesel generator without prelubrication and warming up can lead to premature failure or more friction and wear on important parts. To ensure smooth generator startup and operation, let the diesel engine run at idle speed for a period of time to heat up and then turn it into normal operation when the oil temperature becomes normal and the oil supply is sufficient. Avoid pressing the accelerator hard after cold starting the generator, this may damage the machine. 2. Adding coolant improperly Before starting the diesel generator, ensure that there is enough coolant on the reservoir and do not add hot water immediately. Before adding coo...

The exhaust gas turbocharger can effectively utilize the pulse energy of the exhaust gas emitted by the diesel engine to drive the radial turbine, driving the centrifugal compressor impeller coaxial with the turbine to rotate at high speed, increasing the air pressure, and entering the cylinder through the   diesel engine   intake pipe to increase the charging amount of the diesel engine, which can provide more diesel for combustion, thereby improving the output power and economy of the diesel engine. Before assembly, all parts of the exhaust gas turbocharger should be carefully cleaned (including various tools used for assembly). The parts should be wiped with a lint free soft cloth and placed in a clean place. At the same time, all parts should be inspected and qualified before assembly. If necessary, the dynamic balance of the turbine rotor, compressor impeller and its combination components should be recalibrated and reassembled after picking. The assembly process and prec...

When investing in a power generator, you need to take some factors into consideration to find the right one that best fits your needs. Fuel efficiency should be one of the most primary considerations. A fuel efficient generator will offer significant fuel savings for you. Diesel generators are typically more efficient than gas-powered generators. In this article, you'll learn more about the fuel consumption of   diesel power generators .   What is the fuel consumption of a diesel power generator? Diesel generator sets  can serve as backup emergency power in different scenarios and provide a stable and constant electricity during power outages. You have to have a basic understanding of fuel consumption of diesel generators in order to manage the operating costs.     Diesel generators are known for their high thermal efficiency. A diesel power generator typically consists of a diesel engine and an electric generator. It usually r...

  A diesel generator set is a power equipment that uses a diesel engine as power to drive an AC synchronous generator and generate electricity. Diesel generator sets are widely used power generation equipment in the world, mainly used as emergency backup power sources for telecommunications, finance, national defense, hospitals, schools, commercial, industrial and mining enterprises, and residential buildings; Independent power sources for special purposes such as mobile communication, battlefield and field operations, vehicles, and ships; The independent main power supply required for production and production in areas where the large power grid cannot deliver power or where it is not suitable to establish thermal power plants. With the continuous development of science and technology and the application of new technologies and achievements,  diesel generator sets  are gradually moving from manual starting and manned ordinary units to automation (self starting unmanned, ...

Electricity plays an important role in our daily lives and it may cause inconvenience and potential risks to us when the supply of power fails. Fortunately, emergency diesel generators can provide a reliable power supply during power shortages. To ensure the generators work smoothly in the event of a power cut, regular maintenance is essential. In this article, we will explore several important things you need to know about maintenance of your   emergency diesel generator .   What is an emergency diesel generator? An emergency diesel generator is a device that is often designed to mainly run fuel oil and can supply electrical power to a facility during a blackout or emergency. These generators serve as a backup source of power when the main source of power fails. They are typically configured to start automatically when there is a power loss and assume essential facility loads until the utility power returns.   Why generator maintenance is important? Regular maintena...

This article continues to introduce four parallel solutions for parallel controllers of diesel generator sets. 3. Manual parallel connection with load   1) After manual parallel connection, conduct a load test to observe whether the active and reactive power distribution of each unit is uniform;   2) After manual parallel connection, conduct a soft loading test to observe whether there is significant overshoot or power oscillation during the loading process. If there is, adjust the load slope appropriately:   3) After manual parallel loading, conduct a soft unloading test; Observe whether the unloading of the  generator set  reaches the minimum load percentage set value before opening the circuit breaker;   4) After manual parallel connection, perform load surge and unload tests to observe whether there is power oscillation phenomenon in the unit.   4. Fully automatic parallel connection   When the controller is in automatic mode and the switch in...
