Treatment of Slow Engine Shutdown in Diesel Generator Sets

 What should we do when we find that the diesel generator set engine is slowly stalling? Firstly, check whether there is oil in the fuel tank of the diesel generator set and whether the vent valve of the fuel tank cap is unobstructed. Qualified fuel will not contain impurities and moisture when leaving the factory, but will be mixed with dust, dirt, and moisture to some extent during transportation and storage.

Loosen the bleed screw of the fuel injection pump, pump oil with a hand pump, and observe the oil flow at the bleed screw. If there is no oil flowing out, it means that the oil circuit is blocked, and it should be checked and eliminated section by section. If diesel is emitted in a spray column, it indicates that the oil circuit is unobstructed. If there are bubbles emerging from the vent screw, it indicates that air has entered the pipeline. It is necessary to check whether the joints of the oil pipe are tightened, whether there are cracks or abrasions in the pipeline, and eliminate any problems found. Timely maintenance should be carried out, and severe damage should be replaced. If there are no bubbles in the oil flow, the hand oil pump can be returned and fixed, and the starter can be used to drive the engine to rotate the pump oil. If there is still no oil flowing out, it indicates that the fuel transfer pump is faulty.


After the above operations, diagnose and handle the slow engine shutdown of the diesel generator set, and perform routine maintenance on the diesel generator set, such as daily maintenance, monthly maintenance, quarterly maintenance, annual maintenance, and break-in period maintenance. The content and timing of planned maintenance are related to the working hours of the unit, such as first level maintenance, second level maintenance, and third level maintenance. In planned maintenance, regular maintenance refers to the mandatory execution of maintenance tasks according to the plan.

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...

What Should You Pay Attention to in Routine Maintenance of Diesel Generator Sets

In modern society, the stability of power supply is directly related to the operation efficiency of enterprises and people's quality of life. Diesel generators have become an indispensable backup power supply or main power source in various industries due to their high efficiency, durability and reliability. However, to ensure the smooth operation and optimal performance of the generator sets, regular maintenance is essential. Here is what you need to pay attention to in the routine maintenance of diesel generators. Keep your generator clean It’s important to keep the generator’s exterior and the generator room clean. Regularly remove any dirt, dust, or debris that may accumulate to on the generator’s surface. This is not only for the sake of beauty, but also for the smooth operation of the unit. Cleaning the generator’s exterior, air intake vents, exhaust outlets and generator room can effectively reduce the risk of generator overheating. In addition, check if the connection bol...
