How
to control sand for diesel generator set in desert area?
The sand control
measures are mainly aimed at the air inlet end of the unit, that is, the air
intake valve. There is an air filter element at the air inlet end of the unit,
but this can only be satisfied with the general environment. In order to avoid
the large amount of dust into the engine body, causing early wear of diesel generator set. We can cover the cap of the air filter element with a fine hole
gauze to prevent sand.
What should we pay
attention to the use of diesel generator set in desert area?
When operating the unit.
1.After starting the
diesel engine, it should idle for 3-5 minutes, and then rise to the rated
speed, do not suddenly make it run at high speed.
2.When the diesel
generator set is in working condition (with high temperature), it is forbidden
to open the water tank cover to avoid scalding.
3.To prevent the
components from getting involved in the machine. It is forbidden to start the
generator set after the protective net of the generator set is removed.
4.Observe the water
temperature and oil pressure at any time during the operation of the unit. Stop
the unit if the water temperature is higher than 100 ℃ or the oil pressure is
lower than 0.1.
When stopping the unit.
1.Slow down the speed
and stop the unit after idling for 3-5 minutes.
2.When the ambient
temperature is lower than 0℃, drain the
water in the water tank, diesel engine body and oil cooler.
Special attention.
1.The generator air
switch (circuit breaker) must be disconnected before starting and stopping. It
is strictly prohibited to start or stop the unit when it is loaded.
2.It is forbidden to
operate the diesel engine for too long time(no more than 15 minutes) without
load.
Some users think that
although in desert area, but the generator set is used in the machine room and
will not be affected by the wind and sand, so they do not protect the unit
against sand. In fact, this is a unilateral idea. Even indoors, the amount of windblown
sand in the air in desert areas is much higher than that in general areas. The
air filter element of the unit can not completely isolate these sandstorms, so
in order to protect your unit, you must carefully implement the above sand
prevention measures.

Prevent the dust in the air from entering the electric ball, which will reduce
the power by 5%.
3.Diesel filter and
primary filter. To prevent dust in the air from entering the fuel system.
The above optional
products can effectively prevent dust damage to the alternator or engine.
