Precautions for Assembling Diesel Generator Sets

What do you think should be paid attention to when assembling a diesel generator set? The equipment address of the diesel generator set should have excellent ventilation, the generator end should have satisfactory air inlet, and the diesel generator set end should have excellent air outlet. The area of the air outlet should be more than 1.5 times that of the water tank. The surrounding area of the diesel generator set equipment should be kept clean to avoid placing items that can cause corrosive gases and vapors such as acid and alkaline in the vicinity. If conditions permit, rescue equipment should be equipped. When diesel generator sets are used indoors, it is necessary to guide the smoke exhaust pipes to the outside. The pipe diameter must be ≥ the diameter of the exhaust pipe of the muffler, and the elbows of the connected pipes should not exceed 3 to ensure smoke evacuation. The pipes should be tilted down 5-10 degrees to avoid rainwater injection.

If the exhaust pipe is straight up towards the equipment, it is necessary to install a rain cover. When using concrete as the foundation, the diesel generator set must be measured for levelness with a level ruler during equipment installation, so that the diesel generator set is fixed on a horizontal foundation. There should be dedicated shockproof pads or anchor bolts between the diesel generator set and the foundation. It is necessary to have a reliable protective grounding for the casing of diesel generator sets. For diesel generator sets that require direct grounding of the neutral point, it is necessary to have professional personnel conduct neutral grounding and equip them with lightning protection equipment. It is prohibited to use grounding equipment from the mains for direct grounding of the neutral point.

The bidirectional switch between the diesel generator and the mains is necessary to be very reliable to prevent reverse power transmission. The wiring reliability of the bidirectional switch needs to be verified and approved by the local power supply department. The above are the issues that our company has compiled for everyone to pay attention to when assembling diesel generator sets. As an important emergency backup power supply, users must ensure that it can continuously test run without faults within the specified time and pass the load test before it can be put into use to ensure safety.

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...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
