Hazards of Quiet Diesel Generator Set with Load Emergency Shutdown

 What is the emergency shutdown of silent diesel generator set with load? That is, the silent diesel generator set suddenly stops suddenly in the process of running with load. This operation is harmful to the diesel engine and is not allowed. This wrong operation will seriously affect the service life of the silent diesel generator set and should be avoided in daily operation.


 

Emergency shutdown with load or immediate shutdown after unloading the load suddenly, the circulation of the cooling system water stops after the silent diesel generator set is turned off, the heat dissipation level drops sharply, the heated parts are not cooled, and it is easy to cause the cylinder head, cylinder liner, cylinder block and other components overheating, causing cracks, or over-expanding the piston and getting stuck in the cylinder liner.

At the same time, when the silent diesel generator set stops, there is no idling to reduce heat, which will cause insufficient oil content on the friction surface. When the diesel engine is restarted, it will aggravate wear due to poor lubrication. After the cold start of the diesel engine, the throttle is violently slammed. If the throttle is slammed, the speed of the silent diesel generator set will rise sharply, which will cause some friction surfaces on the engine to be strongly worn due to dry friction.

The appearance of the parts of the silent diesel generator set is worn out, and the actual operation coordination among the parts changes, so that the normal working requirements cannot be met. As a result, the parts and even the silent diesel generator set cannot work normally. And in terms of energy, friction will convert part of the input energy into heat energy and lose it in vain, causing waste and making the silent diesel generator set less efficient.

We know that the function of lubricating oil is to lubricate and remove some impurities and debris caused by the piston and cylinder block. The wear in the middle will increase, and the heat will increase. The greater the friction, the more severe the adverse effect. The result is that when the engine is restarted, dry friction or semi-dry friction will form between the cylinder and the piston, which will accelerate the wear of the parts, and greatly increase the maintenance probability of the silent diesel generator set. . Therefore, the silent diesel generator set cannot be shut down suddenly with load.

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...

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...
