Harm of Slamming The Throttle After Cold Start The Generator Set

After the generator set is cold started, it is not allowed to slam the throttle. As the generator set is shut down without waiting for speed and temperature reduction, the oil content on the friction surface will be insufficient. When the diesel engine runs again, it will be further damaged due to poor lubrication.

After the generator set shuts down, the circulation of the cooling system water is terminated, and the heat removal capacity is greatly reduced. When encountering hot parts, the cooling is lost, which can easily cause overheating of parts such as the cylinder head, cylinder liner, and cylinder liner, causing cracks, or causing the piston rod to swell too much and get stuck in the cylinder liner. On the other hand, if the generator set is shut down without waiting for speed and temperature reduction, it will result in insufficient oil content on the friction surface. When the diesel engine runs again, it will be further damaged due to poor lubrication. Therefore, before the generator unit shuts down, it is necessary to unload the load and slowly reduce the speed ratio, and run at full load for a few minutes.


If the accelerator is slammed, the speed ratio of the generator set will increase significantly, which will cause some friction surfaces inside the machine to be severely damaged due to dry friction. In addition, when the throttle is hit, the piston rod, crankshaft, and engine crankshaft undergo a significant change in force, causing strong collisions and easily damaging parts.


When the refrigeration machine of the generator set is started, due to the high viscosity and poor flowability of the diesel generator oil, the oil provided by the fuel injection pump is insufficient, and the friction surface of the equipment is not well lubricated due to insufficient oil, resulting in significant damage, and even common faults such as engine cylinder pulling and shoe bursting. Therefore, after the diesel engine is refrigerated and running, it should wait for the engine to run at high speed and raise the temperature, and then run with load when the oil temperature reaches above 40 ℃; Equipment development should shift to low gear and drive for a certain mileage in each gear in sequence until the water temperature is normal and the provided oil is sufficient, and then all normal driving can be achieved.


When the generator set runs low on oil, it may cause abnormal damage or burns due to insufficient oil supply on the surface of each friction pair. Therefore, before the development of generator sets and during the entire process of diesel engine operation, it is necessary to ensure that there is sufficient engine oil in the car to avoid common faults such as engine cylinder pulling and bearing failure caused by insufficient oil.

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...
