Drying Treatment Method of Diesel Generator Set after Damp

 

Since January this year, the southern region has suffered from continuous rainy weather. Improper handling of diesel generator sets during use is prone to moisture problems, especially the damping of the motors of the generator sets, which has a great impact on the life and work of the generator sets. At this time, the user must dry the damp diesel generator set. For the relevant drying method, the user can refer to the following methods:

1. Short-circuit the three-phase outlet of the stator winding and connect it firmly.

2. Adjust the resistance of the voltage regulating rheostat in the excitation circuit to the maximum value. If the resistance value is not enough, add another resistance to increase the resistance value.

3. Start the generator set, slowly increase it to the rated speed, and then slowly adjust the excitation current. The excitation current is determined according to the damp condition of the generator set, and the short-circuit current of the stator winding should not exceed the rated current.

4. Improve the ventilation conditions of the unit, preferably equipped with good ventilation equipment. In cold seasons, heating equipment should also be prepared to ensure that the outside temperature is not lower than 5 °C, and attention should be paid to the waterproofing of diesel generator sets.


 

5. When measuring the insulation resistance of the semiconductor excitation generator set, the excitation device should be disconnected, or all silicon rectifier components should be short-circuited to prevent breakdown during measurement.

Diesel generator sets tend to reduce the insulation resistance after absorbing moisture, which greatly reduces the electrical strength. If the load is started directly at this time, winding breakdown and short-circuit accidents are likely to occur. Jiangsu Starlight Electricity Equipments Co.,Ltd. warm reminder: Users should pay close attention to the condition of the diesel generator set when using it. Once the generator set is found to be seriously damp, it should be dealt with immediately. If the generator set is seriously damp, it is necessary to contact professionals for on-site maintenance.

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...

What Should You Pay Attention to in Routine Maintenance of Diesel Generator Sets

In modern society, the stability of power supply is directly related to the operation efficiency of enterprises and people's quality of life. Diesel generators have become an indispensable backup power supply or main power source in various industries due to their high efficiency, durability and reliability. However, to ensure the smooth operation and optimal performance of the generator sets, regular maintenance is essential. Here is what you need to pay attention to in the routine maintenance of diesel generators. Keep your generator clean It’s important to keep the generator’s exterior and the generator room clean. Regularly remove any dirt, dust, or debris that may accumulate to on the generator’s surface. This is not only for the sake of beauty, but also for the smooth operation of the unit. Cleaning the generator’s exterior, air intake vents, exhaust outlets and generator room can effectively reduce the risk of generator overheating. In addition, check if the connection bol...
