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 tools, etc. far away from the exposed electrification parts like output electrode for the purpose of preventing electric arc or spark since the electric arc will cause fuel or gas explore.

It is forbidden to pour fuel into tank when the machine is running.

It is not allowed to start the machine when know there’s fuel leakage.

Be careful when there's over unburned gas accumulated in the exhaust system as there’s risk for potential explosion. The gas was accumulated by repeat start without switching on or gas valve examination. The machine shall be started after the gas was discharged.

2.4 Machine

This electric generating set is equipped with protection cover for protecting the flexible components. However, during the start, staff near the machine shall be careful about the possible danger to individuals caused by various flexible components.

Genset installation

If the fan protection cover or other security protection cover was open, it is forbidden to start the machine. It is not allowed to stretch hands to the place under these protection cover or surroundings for maintenance when the machine is running.

Palms, arms, long hair, loose clothes, jewelries, etc. shall be far away from the belt pulley, belt and other rotating components.

Note: Some rotating components are vague after the machine started.

If there's a door for maintenance on the generating set, try to close it when unnecessary.

Be careful to avoid touch hot oil, cooling liquid, exhaust gases, set surface, sharp surface or sharp angle.

It is required to put on working clothes, gloves and hat during working near the machine.

Do not open the radiator cover before the cooling liquid cooled completely.

After the cooling liquid cooled, first screw off the cover for release of the inside pressure and then open the cover completely.

Ether ignition is not applicable for devices with gas preheating. Generally speaking, it is not recommended to apply these assisting starting materials to all engines, which will decrease the efficacy and service time of the engine.

2.5 Chemicals

The fuel, engine oil, cooling liquid, lubricant, and battery electrolyte applied in this machine are all for common industrial use. However, they also can be harmful to health if treated improperly.

Do not swallow or touch the fuel, oil, cooling liquid, lubricant, and battery electrolyte with skin. If swallowed the above materials, it shall go to doctor for treatment immediately. If touched them with skin, it shall clean the skin with soap and clean water immediately.

Do not put on clothes stained with fuel or lubricant.

It requires putting on acid proofing apron, masks and eyes protectors when in processing battery. Once stained with battery electrolyte, rinse immediately with plenty of water.

2.6 Noise

This electric generating set will produce 105dBA noise without the peripheral equipment for noise reduction. Exposure to the noise level of 85dBA continuously is harmful to hearing.

Staff operating the set or working near the set shall put on devices for ear protection.

We supply multiple brands of generator set, such as: Cummins, Volvo, Deutz, Doosan Daewoo, MTU, Ricardo, Perkins, Shangchai, Weichai, Yuchai etc. The style of genset is varied, such as: container genset, trailer genset, portable trailer genset, soundproof genset, low noise genset, and silent genset, etc. Besides, we also supply design and construction of the noise reduction project up to the customer's requirements.

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...

How to Choose a Household Mini Generator

With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more household appliances, such as rice cookers, microwaves, kettles, refrigerators, air - conditioners, washing machines, etc. It can be said that every household has them. But what if there is a power outage? These appliances won't work properly, and our lives will be greatly disrupted. How can we avoid this? We can use household mini - generators to provide convenience in power consumption. So, how to choose a good household mini - generator? Consider the noise level Since it is for household use, when choosing a household mini - generator, we need to check whether the noise will affect the neighbors. Generally, the seller will demonstrate the performance of the generator in advance. A good household generator can reduce noise by about 80%. Choose a generator with a moderate price Due to different brands, there are significant differences in power, and consequently, the price differences of househ...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
