Failure Strategy of Crankshaft Position Sensor of Cummins Generator Set

The engine of the 290kW Cummins generator set adopts the Cummins patented PT fuel system, which enables the set to have higher reliability, durability, power and fuel economy while meeting environmental emissions. So do you know what its crankshaft position sensor failure strategy is?

(1) The concept of failure strategy. The so-called failure strategy is the operation mode of the electronically controlled diesel engine under the fault state. When the diesel engine is in the following conditions, the control strategy will enter the Limphome state.

1. The crankshaft position sensor is damaged or the signal circuit is open or short circuited.

2. The camshaft phase sensor is damaged or the signal circuit is open or short circuited.

3. The oil pressure sensor of the common rail is damaged or the circuit is open or short circuited.

4. The oil metering valve of the high-pressure oil pump is damaged or the drive circuit is open or short-circuited.

5. The electronic throttle sensor is damaged or the signal circuit is open or short-circuited.


(2) Crankshaft position sensor failure strategy. When the ECU judges that the crankshaft position sensor or the camshaft position sensor signal is faulty, the sensor is damaged or the signal circuit is damaged (open circuit or short circuit), the ECU takes the following measures:

1. Turn on the fault light.

2. Generate fault codes: P0008, P0340, P0341, P0335, P0336.

3. The diesel engine continues to work by relying on a single sensor.

4. There is no obvious influence on the power performance of diesel engine.

5. The starting time may be slightly longer than normal.

6. The throttle feels normal.

7. There is no obvious impact on operation, but fuel consumption and emissions may become worse.

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base. Electric generator :- Electric generator is a type of machine which converts mechanical input (energy) into electrical output (...

Baudouan Weichai 1530KW Diesel Generator Set 16M33 Series Engine

Weichai is the earliest enterprise in China to develop and produce generator sets, with a production history of over 60 years. It mainly produces land - based and marine generator sets, including diesel - type and gas - type units. Weichai's M33 series engines include 6M33, 12M33, and 16M33 diesel engines. These are high - power high - speed diesel engines independently developed by Weichai based on the mature product platform of Baudouin's M26 series in France. The development of this series of models fills the gap in Weichai's high - speed diesel engines for power generation in the 500 - 1530kW power range, enabling effective competition with foreign brands. The M33 series Weichai engines inherit and carry forward the advanced product development and design concepts of the French Baudouin M26. They are benchmarked against international advanced engines, effectively avoiding various design defects. The product development emphasizes high reliability and low emissions. Th...

How to Connect A Diesel Generator to Your House?

Diesel generators are fuel-efficient and reliable, which can almost meet the power needs of any application. If you want to power the whole house during power shortages, it’s a good choice to choose a diesel generator set as the backup electricity supply. But how to connect a diesel generator to your house? Read on and you will find the answer. Options to connect a diesel generator to your home   Keep in mind that never plug your generator directly into the mains, or it will cause back feeding, damage your appliances and be life-threatening for utility workers. Generally, you can choose to connect a generator to your house by using extension cords or a transfer switch. Understanding the difference between them is helpful for you to choose the right type. Extension cords   Typically, extension cords are suitable for smaller diesel generators that used for short term. They require no installation and are cost-effective. If you need to power only some basic appliances such as...
