Illegal Habit of Diesel Generator Maintenance

Once a diesel generator fails, it must be repaired before it can be put into production again. Careful working attitude and accurate fault analysis are necessary conditions for successful maintenance of diesel generator. However, in our daily maintenance work, some irregular work habits often lead to the failure of maintenance work. Here, Dingbo Power Generation Equipment lists some illegal working habits in the maintenance of diesel generator for our technicians to learn from. The specific content is shared as follows:

1. Unqualified cleaning of generator parts

During the maintenance of diesel generator, the correct removal of oil stains and impurities on the surface of parts is of great significance to improve the repair quality and extend the service life of machinery. If the sundries in the bolt hole and the sand in the hydraulic element are not completely removed, the bolt torque is insufficient, the piston ring is easy to break, the cylinder gasket is ablated, and the hydraulic element is worn early: during the overhaul of the diesel generator, the oil dirt or impurities accumulated in the filter, lubricating oil passage, etc. are not carefully removed, which makes the maintenance work incomplete and reduces the trouble free operation time of the equipment.


2. The quality of the small parts of the unit is not up to standard

During the maintenance of diesel generator, some maintenance personnel often only pay attention to the maintenance of pump, fuel pump and other parts, but ignore the maintenance of "small parts" such as various instruments. Who knows that it is precisely these "small parts" that lack maintenance, leading to early wear and tear of the machinery and shortening its service life. For example, if the oil filter, air filter, hydraulic oil filter, water temperature gauge, oil temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, sensor, alarm, filter screen, grease nozzle, oil return connector, cotter pin, fan air guide cover, drive shaft bolt locking plate, etc. used by the unit are not maintained carefully, they will often be "penny wise and pound foolish", resulting in diesel generator equipment failure.


3. Habitual maintenance errors occur

When maintaining equipment for diesel generator, some maintenance personnel do not understand some problems that should be paid attention to during maintenance, which leads to "habitual" errors in disassembly and assembly, affecting the maintenance quality of machinery. For example, when installing the piston pin, the piston pin is directly driven into the pin hole without heating the piston, resulting in increased deformation of the piston and increased ovality: when repairing the diesel generator, the bearing bush is excessively scraped, and the antifriction alloy layer on the surface of the bearing bush is scraped off, resulting in early wear caused by direct friction between the steel back of the bearing bush and the crankshaft; When disassembling interference fit components such as bearings and pulleys, do not use a tensioner. Hard hitting and knocking can easily cause deformation or damage to the components; When unsealing new pistons, cylinder liners, fuel injection nozzle assemblies, plunger assemblies, and other parts, burning the oil or wax stored on the surface of the parts can cause changes in the performance of the parts, which is not conducive to their use.


Dingbo Power was founded in 1974 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to sales@dieselgeneratortech.com we will pay highly attention on your question.

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
