How to Prevent Electric Shock from Generator Set

Prevent electric shock from diesel generator The load connection of this machine requires experienced electrician with certification and must be in consistent with relevant regulations, standard and other specification of electrical equipment. If necessary, ask the agent to send somebody for examining the machine before start it. It is only applicable when the electric generating set (including pulling electric generating set) is ensured to be connected to the electrical equipment whose specification complies with the local standard. It is necessary to open the negative connection (-) of battery before connecting or dismounting the load. Do not connect or dismount load standing in water or on wet ground. Do not touch the electrification components or power leads by body or metal components without insulation when it is in electric power generation. The connection box cover shall be reset immediately after finishing the connection or dismount the load. It is f...

Diesel Generator Set Security Information

Diesel Generator Set Security Information Be sure that generator room is full of applicable sufficient CO2 and dry-chemical fire  extinguisher for the purpose of security. Users are required to know how to use these equipment. Make sure the room for installing electric generating set has adequate atmospheric conditions. Make sure the cleaning of generator room, floor and electric generating set. Clean the leaked fuel, battery electrolyte, or cooling liquid immediately. It is forbidden to store the inflammable liquid besides the generator. The oily wiper shall be stored in a container with metal cover. It is not allowed to smoke or sparking or other behaviors easy to cause naked flame near the battery and fuel because the gas volatilized by fuel will cause explosion and so does the volatilize produced by the battery charging. Cut the power of battery charger before connecting or cutting the battery. Make the electrical conductors like metal to...

Starlight Generator Major Overhaul - Generator AVR

1. Major overhaul of Starlight Generator a. Measure insulating resistance with 500V Meg-ohm meter. If the reading is less than 2MΩ, the generator should be dried. (Must disconnect AVR with generator during measuring). b. Replace the grease in bearing housing, and clean the surface of two shield bearing or replace the bearing. c. Clean the interior of generator by blowing, and take care of the all junctions. d. Inspect all living parts, and make sure joint nut tight and contact well. 2. Overhaul attention. a. Take care of the disassemble parts, and avoid to bump each other or missing. d. Disassemble bearing and bearing cap should be covered by clean paper to prevent dirt, and replace the dirty grease. e. After the generator reassembled, rotate the rotor slowly, ensure there are not abnormal sound and halt. f. The bracket screws should be driven crosswise, can't drive the screws one by one. Paralleling operation. Sx440 voltage regulator may be supplied ...

Inspection and Operation of Starlight AC Generator

Inspection of  Starlight AC synchronous generator a. Though the generator, AVR and auxiliary devices are solid and well insulated, if the generator was stored for longtime it might be moistened, and should be inspected carefully before operation. b. Measure the insulating resistance, of winding against the ground by ohmmeter, if the value is less than 2 in cold condition, the generator should be dried. Caution: At measuring, the electronic elements and capacitor should be shorted, and the AVR. should be disconnected to avoid damaged. c. Make sure all connecting joints are tight and contact good. d. Be sure the frame is properly grounded, and ground wire should be same as the size of lead-wires 。 e. Make familiar with the rated data of nameplate before operation. 2. Voltage adjustment In general, the generator was carefully inspected and tested in operation before it left the factory, and the normal voltage has been corrected, so it is not necessary to adjust. I...

Safe Caution of Starlight TFW Series Alternators

Safe Caution Please remember safety first. If you are not sure of the instructions or procedures, seek qualified help before continuing. This service manual emphasizes the safety precautions necessary during the installation, operation, and maintenance of your TFW generator. 1. The lifting eyes on the generator are designed to support the generator only. Do not lift a complete generator set (engine) by means of lifting eyes on the generator. Personal injury or damage to the equipment may result. 2. Do not apply any force to the generator fan. Never "BAR OVER" the engine-generator set by using the fan. Failure to comply with these safety procedures could result in severe injury to personnel or damage to the equipment. 3. Before any service work is done, disconnect all power sources, and lock out all controls to prevent an unexpected start-up of the generator set. 4. Proper grounding in compliance with local and national electrical codes must be provi...
