Transportation of diesel power generator
The foundation of electric generating set is designed especially for the convenient transportation.
Incorrect transportation will cause serious damage to the components of the set. Forklift can be
applied for lifting the electric generating set or push or pull the set by
putting forth effort on the underframe. If push, do not use fork push machine directly
but shall put some wood between the fork and generator bracket for preventing
damage to the generator bracket and weight disperse. If the electric generating
set needs to be moved frequently, “oil-filled slide” can be installed on the
generator bracket which will provide the forklift with groove and suspension.
Small types are already equipped with groove for forklift on the underframe.
It is forbidden to lift the
electric generating set by the rings of engine or alternator.
Examine whether the lifting
device and supporting are in good condition and whether the load capacity of
hanging equipment is appropriate.
Nobody is allowed to stand near
when the machine is lifted up. If want to lift up the electric generating set, it shall install a
single-point suspension apparatus which is already equipped by the standard
machine with canopy. If lift up the electric generating set for the purpose of
installation, the lifting eyes on the underframe are designed for hoisting the
set. After finishing the connection, check whether it is hung tightly, whether
there’s any split on the weld, whether the screws are screwed tightly, etc. A
crossbar is needed to prevent the damage to the machine. Make sure that the
suspension shall lie in the center of gravity (near to the generator) rather
than the center of the whole machine, so that the whole machine can be lifted
up. Guard rope is required to prevent the sire cable from twist together or
prevent the machine from swing once the machine left the ground. It is better
not to lift up the machine in strong wind. The machine shall be put on flat
place where can bear the set weight when laying down the machine.
Installation position
It is critical important to
choose a good place for installation of electric generating set among all steps. The following factors are critical for selecting
the site for installation.
Sufficient ventilation
Protect the components from rain,
snow, hailstone, flood, direct sunlight, freezing temperature or Do not expose
the machine in the polluted air, such as grinding dust, metal dust, fiber tow,
smoke, lampblack, vapor, acid, alkaline and corrosive gas, smog discharged by
the engine, or other pollution.
Do not install the electric
generating set on a place where trees and electric poles fall down or place
where can be pressed by the materials from the cars and hoists.
A certain space must be left
surround the generator for the purpose of cooling and convenient maintenance.
It is not allowed to put other material at least one meter away from the set
and 2 meters above the set.
A passage for the whole set to
the installation room must be left and pipe for air passage shall be easy for
assemble and unassembled, serving as convenient carrying port.
Non-management staff are
forbidden to enter into the generator room If it is necessary to install the
electric generating set outside the building, it needs to be equipped with weather proof casing
or container type casing, which is of significant importance to the diesel power generator that needs to be installed inside or outside the building
temporarily.
