Maintenance of V-belt for Diesel Generator Transmission Belt

Many accessories such as diesel generator battery energy supplementation and air conditioning systems need to be driven by the transmission belt V. Therefore, the V-belt is crucial for diesel engines. The transmission belt is not in good condition, and diesel cannot work properly.

1. Check the condition and tightness of the drive belt: Check that the drive belt is not damaged or peeled off. Before the transmission belt breaks, there will be a sliding and grinding sound, and the surface of the transmission belt will show signs of cracking, wear, and peeling. Therefore, careful observation should be made, and if the above phenomenon occurs, the drive belt should be replaced in a timely manner (note the difference: when the tension of the drive belt is not enough, there may also be a slipping sound). When checking the tightness of the fan drive belt, press the middle part of the drive belt with a force of 90-loON with your thumb, and the deflection should be 5-10mm. If it does not meet the requirements, adjustments should be made.

2. Adjusting the tightness of the V-belt: If the fan drive belt is too loose, it can cause insufficient charging and overheating of the diesel generator.

When adjusting the tightness of the fan drive belt, use the adjustment bolt to shift the entire AC generator inward or outward to adjust the tightness of the drive belt. After adjustment, the fixing bolts should be reliably tightened. Be careful not to tighten the drive belt too tightly, otherwise it may cause damage to the fan drive belt and bearings. During operation, attention should be paid to avoiding oil contamination of the transmission belt, otherwise it may cause slipping and shorten its service life.

3. Replacing the accessory V-belt: When there are signs of cracking, wear, and peeling on the surface of the drive belt, or when there is a slipping sound (except for loose slipping sound), it indicates that the drive belt may break. At this time, the drive belt should be replaced in a timely manner.

When replacing the transmission belt of a diesel generator, first loosen the fixing screws of the engine, move the engine towards the cylinder block to loosen the transmission belt, and then remove the transmission belt. If the drive belt is still difficult to remove after being loose, a screwdriver can be inserted between the drive belt pulley and the drive belt, and the drive belt can be pulled outward while turning the drive belt pulley. This way, the drive belt can be removed.

Before removing the transmission belt of the diesel generator, it is important to note the position of the belt during installation to prevent incorrect installation. When installing the drive belt, follow the reverse order of disassembly.

4. Check the installation status of the drive belt: Some diesel engines use a flat fan drive belt. When installing it on the drive pulley, the fit between the drive belt and the drive pulley should be checked. The flat drive belt should be well matched with the drive pulley, otherwise the service life of the drive belt will not be long.

Dingbo Power was founded in 1974 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to sales@dieselgeneratortech.com we will pay highly attention on your question.

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

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
