Reasons for Diesel Generator Set Not Starting Normally

Do you know which situations a diesel generator set cannot start normally? Before starting a diesel generator set, check to see if the diesel generator set is ready. Start the diesel generator set with all the switches and conditions feasible. Note that the situation cannot be started. First, avoid running without cooling water or adding boiling water to start the diesel generator set before adding cooling water, It can cause important components such as hot cylinder liners and cylinder heads to burst or deform due to sudden cooling. Sudden addition of 100 ℃ boiling water to the cold body can also crack the cylinder head and body. It should be added when the water temperature drops to 60-70 ℃. Secondly, if the diesel generator set does not supply oil according to regulations, the pressure reducing handle should not be placed in the "working" position before supplying oil. Instead, the throttle handle should be placed in the supply position before starting.

The harm of not operating according to this regulation is wasting fuel. Excess diesel will wash away the cylinder wall, causing deterioration of lubrication between the piston, piston ring, and cylinder liner, exacerbating wear. The residual oil flowing into the oil pan will dilute the engine oil and reduce the lubrication effect. Excessive diesel combustion in the cylinder may not completely form carbon deposits. Three taboos for starting a diesel engine when the engine oil is viscous during cold driving can exacerbate the wear and tear between various moving parts, thereby reducing the service life of the locomotive. Four taboos: Long term use of electric heating plugs, flame preheater electric heating plugs, and flame preheater heating elements are all electric heating wires, which consume a lot of electricity and heat. Long term use can damage the battery due to rapid discharge, and can also burn out the electric heating wire. Therefore, the continuous use time of the glow plug should not exceed 1 minute, and the continuous use time of the flame preheater should be controlled within 20 seconds.

How to Connect A Diesel Generator to Your House?

Diesel generators are fuel-efficient and reliable, which can almost meet the power needs of any application. If you want to power the whole house during power shortages, it’s a good choice to choose a diesel generator set as the backup electricity supply. But how to connect a diesel generator to your house? Read on and you will find the answer. Options to connect a diesel generator to your home   Keep in mind that never plug your generator directly into the mains, or it will cause back feeding, damage your appliances and be life-threatening for utility workers. Generally, you can choose to connect a generator to your house by using extension cords or a transfer switch. Understanding the difference between them is helpful for you to choose the right type. Extension cords   Typically, extension cords are suitable for smaller diesel generators that used for short term. They require no installation and are cost-effective. If you need to power only some basic appliances such as...

Baudouan Weichai 1530KW Diesel Generator Set 16M33 Series Engine

Weichai is the earliest enterprise in China to develop and produce generator sets, with a production history of over 60 years. It mainly produces land - based and marine generator sets, including diesel - type and gas - type units. Weichai's M33 series engines include 6M33, 12M33, and 16M33 diesel engines. These are high - power high - speed diesel engines independently developed by Weichai based on the mature product platform of Baudouin's M26 series in France. The development of this series of models fills the gap in Weichai's high - speed diesel engines for power generation in the 500 - 1530kW power range, enabling effective competition with foreign brands. The M33 series Weichai engines inherit and carry forward the advanced product development and design concepts of the French Baudouin M26. They are benchmarked against international advanced engines, effectively avoiding various design defects. The product development emphasizes high reliability and low emissions. Th...

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...
