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.

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 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...

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...
