The Solution to The Volvo Diesel Generator Battery Failure to Charge

Regarding the phenomenon of the Volvo diesel generator battery not being charged and the solutions, first we need to check whether the connection of the charging circuit is reliable, check whether the connection and plug are in good contact, and carefully check whether the socket and plug have "ignition" or arc burning phenomenon, wireless circuit damage or wire breakage.

Secondly, check if the Volvo diesel generator charger is damaged and if the charging parameters meet the requirements: the initial charging current reaches 1.6-2.5A per unit. The maximum charging voltage reaches 14.8-14.9V/unit, the floating charging conversion current reaches 0.3-0.4A/unit, and the floating charging voltage reaches 14.0-14.4V/unit.


Check if there is any drying phenomenon inside the battery, that is, if the battery is severely out of liquid. The electrode plate should also be checked for irreversible sulfation. The irreversible sulfation of the electrode plate can be determined by measuring the change in its terminal voltage through charging and discharging.


During charging, the voltage of the battery rises very quickly, with some individual cell voltages being particularly high, much exceeding normal values. When discharging, the voltage drops very quickly, and the battery has no or very little storage. If the above situation occurs, it can be determined that the battery has undergone irreversible sulfation.


Finally, fault inspection and handling: First, connect the charging circuit firmly, and replace the charger if it is abnormal. Dry batteries should be supplemented with pure water or 1.050 sulfuric acid for maintenance, charging, and discharging to restore battery capacity.


If irreversible sulfation is found, balanced charging should be performed to restore capacity. After adding liquid to dry batteries, the maintenance and charging should be controlled to a maximum current of 1.8A. It is recommended to charge for 10-15 hours, and the voltage of all three batteries should be above 13.4V/battery. If the voltage difference between batteries exceeds 0.3V, it indicates that the batteries have undergone asynchronous irreversible sulfation. For batteries that undergo irreversible sulfation, the entire set of batteries needs to be replaced or activated.

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.

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
