Reduce The No Load Operation Time of Volvo Generator Sets

When fuel economy, high thermal efficiency, and operating conditions change, the fuel consumption rate curve of Volvo generator sets changes relatively flat, and Volvo generator sets are also economical at low loads, with lower harmful emissions. The Volvo generator set has a wide range of applications, reliable and durable operation, and low faults due to the lack of ignition system. The maintenance operation of Volvo generator sets is simple, with fewer people, and maintenance is easy during standby period.

The comprehensive cost of construction and power generation for Volvo generator sets is the lowest, with fast start-up and the ability to quickly reach full power in just a few seconds. The emergency shutdown process with full load within 1 minute is short, and frequent start and stop can be achieved. For turbocharged diesel Volvo generator sets, due to the low load, no load, and low boost pressure of the Volvo generator set, it is easy to cause a decrease in the sealing effect of the turbocharger oil seal of the Volvo generator set.


If the oil accumulates to a certain extent in the turbocharger chamber, it will leak out from the joint surface of the Volvo generator set turbocharger. A portion of the oil that flows up to the cylinder participates in combustion, forming carbon deposits at the valves, intake ports, piston crown, piston rings, and other parts of the Volvo generator set. Another portion is discharged with the exhaust. In this way, oil will gradually accumulate in the exhaust duct of the cylinder sleeve of the Volvo generator set, and carbon deposits will also form.


Long term low load operation of Volvo generator sets can also lead to more serious consequences such as increased wear and tear of moving parts of Volvo generator sets, deterioration of engine combustion environment, etc., leading to the early overhaul period. Both naturally aspirated and turbocharged models emphasize the need to minimize the low load/no load operation time of Volvo generator sets, and stipulate that the minimum load should not be lower than 25% -30% of the rated power of Volvo generator sets.

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...
