Procurement Guide for Portable Diesel Generators

Nowadays, power outages are increasing, and in fact, the frequency of power outages has doubled in recent years. The power outage has had a huge impact on our society. Disrupting traffic, closing basic businesses such as supermarkets and gas stations, and posing risks to people's health.

Assuming you are someone who is afraid of power outages and seeking solutions, today, please take a look at a guide to purchasing a handheld diesel generator with Dingbo to help you get help when buying a suitable generator.

 

Portable gas and diesel generators.

 

Gasoline engines are well-known. Cars, trucks, and lawn mowers are all there seems to be stations everywhere. If you don't drive a trailer, you may not have a diesel engine.

 

In fact, diesel engines are more efficient than gasoline engines. When there is a power outage, this is a real advantage. According to the relevant energy department, the efficiency of diesel engines is 30% to 35% higher than that of gasoline engines. They have fewer moving parts, which means less maintenance throughout the entire life cycle of diesel engines.

 

So how much power does the generator need?

 

It all depends on what power source you want or need, and everything is measured in watts. Starting appliances such as electric stoves and refrigerators requires a large amount of electricity, with almost no need for lights and fans. Your air conditioning equipment will consume a lot, especially commercial equipment.

 

You should calculate the total amount of electricity you need to help you calculate specific needs.

 

All devices scheduled to run simultaneously must be added. Your refrigerator and freezer should be a top priority because if your food is not running for a long time, it will spoil.

 

Next is heating or air conditioning. In winter, when there is a power outage and it is cold, you need to keep warm. The above two main electrical appliances can consume the most energy, please consider.

 

Then, you may need to start the stove, microwave, dishwasher, etc. The power of these appliances varies from person to person, so please check your special appliances to obtain accurate values.

 

Finally, you need to power lights, fans, televisions, radios, computers, and other small appliances. Doing so will consume a small amount of wattage, but you should know these numbers.

 

All of these together, you will get a number, but there is one last thing to consider. Most appliances consume a lot of electricity during startup. The larger the device, the more power is needed to start it. After starting, the electrical appliances consume less electricity.

 

Assuming your air conditioning power is 20000 watts, but it consumes 22000 watts of electricity when starting. Don't buy a 20000 watt maximum power generator because it can never turn on the air conditioning. You need a power source that exceeds the starting power. Electric furnaces and heat pumps are used in large buildings and consume a large amount of electricity during the start-up process.

 

Hard wired conversion switch, plug and play.

 

Most generators have plug and play functionality. They have various sockets, and you can connect different types of power lines to all devices.

 

The keyword is electric wire. Outside the building, the generator is connected to the electrical appliances, and you need a sufficiently long wire. For most appliances, this is not a big problem. If they are connected to the wall socket, a regular extension cable can be used. For large commercial real estate, this is not ideal.

 

Microwave ovens and dryers use special wires, so it is important to ensure that the generator has a socket first. Secondly, a sufficiently long wire is required. The longer the price of this specialized wire, the higher the price.

 

There will also be traffic congestion. And if the wires are aged or damaged, there is also a risk of falling and electric shock. That is to say, if you only care about the power supply of one or two devices and they do not require long cables, then if you are careful, you can solve the problem through plug and play settings.

 

This is a type of conversion switch, as it generates electrical energy from generation to distribution to equipment through the electrical safety box of the building.

 

The converter is installed on the outside of the building and on the other side of the wall connected to the fuse. The converter has built-in safety features. To keep the generator and fuse box energized, the power supply from the power company must be turned off first.

 

This safety function uses a manual slider, and the power company's switch is also turned on, which can actually prevent the generator's switch from turning on. This can prevent current feedback into the system and generator.

 

As a professional diesel generator manufacturer, we always insist on using first-class talents to build a first-class enterprise, create first-class products, create first-class services, and strive to build a first-class domestic enterprise.

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.
