What are the Faults of Diesel Generators

 Under the prerequisites of mastering the working principle, structure, adjustment and maintenance of diesel generator sets, it is also necessary to deeply understand the conditions under which the generator set operates normally and under which conditions it is prone to failure. If a fault is caused, how to analyze the cause of the fault according to the problem phenomenon, through in-depth and detailed analysis, propose the correct processing method, and quickly and accurately eliminate the fault problem. Diesel generator failure problems often show one or more unique failure problem phenomena. Different working conditions, the phenomenon of failure problems will be different. These fault phenomena are usually audible, visible, tactile or measurable in nature. All in all, the failure phenomenon has the following five aspects:

1. The function is abnormal. If the unit is not easy to start. With no load (that is, slow down or stop after loading). The speed and frequency are abnormal, the fuel or oil consumption is too large, the voltage decreases or disappears, and the unit vibrates violently.

2. The sound is abnormal, such as abnormal cylinder knocking, gun blasting, hissing, exhaust sound, periodic friction sound, pinning sound, valve foot sound, gear sound, unstable speed (travel), etc.

3. Abnormal temperature. The normal working temperature of the unit is about 85 ℃, and the abnormal temperature mainly refers to the oil temperature is too high, the cooling water temperature is too high, the bearing is overheated, the temperature difference of the exhaust manifold is too large, etc.

4. The appearance is abnormal. Usually refers to the abnormal smoke exhaust system (white smoke, blue smoke, black smoke), three leakage (oil leakage, water leakage, air leakage), leakage (flash sparks) and so on.

5. Abnormal smell, such as smell, burnt smell, exhaust with fuel or incomplete combustion of engine oil, smoke smell, etc.


 When repairing diesel generator sets, maintenance personnel need to do the following 4 points:

1. Comprehensive observation of fault phenomenon phenomenon. Accurately observe the fault phenomenon, do not be confused by the general phenomenon.

2. Careful consideration should be given to the analysis of the cause of the failure problem to determine the sequence and method of compressing the failure problem.

3. Compression failure problem method should adopt the most appropriate method to quickly eliminate equipment failure. When a method cannot be continued, it should be considered whether the method is suitable and whether other methods can be used.

4. The maintenance style of the machine is better, the machine style is better, it will not expand the scope of failure problems of the unit, and it can complete the maintenance task quickly and in time with guaranteed quality and quantity.

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 (

Engine Fault Code Messages - Volvo Penta Engine

Volvo Penta Engine Fault Code When a malfunction has occurred and the diagnostic system has generated one or more fault codes, these are read out differently depending on the equipment used. Please refer to “Fault code messages”. If the system indicates that a fault code has been set: 1 Cut engine speed to idle, or shut the Volvo engine off. 2 For DCU/DU Read the fault code from the display, please refer to Reading fault codes via the DCU or Reading fault codes via the DU. For CIU press the diagnostic button and read the fault code, by observing the flashing of the diagnostic lamp. Refer to Reading fault codes via the diagnostic lamp, CIU. 3 Look up the fault code in the Fault Code Register chapter and take the recommended measures. Reading fault codes via the DU (Display Unit) Depending on the severity of the fault the text, either WARNING! or ALARM STOP (a buzzer sounds) will be shown on the display 1 Press any button to come to the fault list. The f

Types of Diesel Engine and Application of Diesel Generator

This article will guide you to learn diesel engine types and important role of diesel generator. If you are interested, please keep reading.  What Are Diesel Engines? A type of internal combustion engine more accurately known as a compression ignition engine is designed to provide power by compressing the fuel at high temperature and significant pressure until it ignites. Diesel engines are either two-stroke or four-stroke .   ‘Stroke’ means the movement of the piston in the engine. Two-stroke This engine uses one stroke in each direction.   The first stroke being compression, which results in the ignition of the compressed fuel.   The return stroke brings new fuel into the cylinder. Four-stroke This engine has one compression stroke and one exhaust stroke and each one of those has a return stroke – hence, four-stroke. The compression stroke compresses the fuel/air mixture prior to ignition.   The exhaust stroke pushes the burnt gases out the exhaust. The
