Operating the diesel engine

 Requirements of using engine

※ When the diesel engine is cold started, it should keep idling for 5 minutes with no load. Even if it’s warm started, the engine must run after the oil pressure is established.

※ When the diesel engine is cold started, it should not run with the throttle completely open and should not run with full load and at high speed. It should steadily speed up and run after water temperature rises above 60.

※ New engine or an engine after overhaul needs 50 hour break-in period, after this break-in period. Engine can operate as normal.

 Please check the following items carefully when engine is running.

※ Check if the lubricating oil pressure is normal.The pressure should be lower than 0.1MPa when the engine is idling and should be within 0.25MPa and 0.6 MPa when the engine is running at high speed.

※ Check if the coolant temperature is normal. The temperature should be controlled within 75 and 90.Always observe abnormal noises when the engine is running, if there are abnormal noises, stop the engine and troubleshoot it.

※ Pay attention to the sealing of every water passage and the fuel pipe, If there is leakage, remedy it immediately.

 Attention

※ Do not keep the engine idling for more than 5 minutes, not more than 10 minutes at its minimum.

Diesel Generator Power Ratings: Standby vs Prime vs Continuous

Diesel generator sets are commonly used in a variety of sectors due to their dependable performance and high efficiency. They can be used for emergency power supply in the event of a power cut or used in places without connection to a power grid. When selecting a diesel generator for your home or business, you need to consider many factors, such as generator’s ratings. In this article, we’ll explain the three basic rating types - standby, prime, and continuous in diesel generators. ISO-8528-1:2018 defines basic generator set rating categories based on four operational categories: Emergency Standby Power (ESP), Prime Power (PRP), Continuous Power (COP) and Limited-Time Running Prime (LTP). Read on and learn the application of power ratings for engines used in generating sets. Standby Power Rating Standby Power(ESP) is used to supply emergency power when the external power supply is interrupted, such as power outages. Standby power rated generators can supply reliable electricity as t...
