Correct Maintenance of The Three Filters in Diesel Generator Sets 1

The "three filters" of a diesel generator refer to the air filter, fuel filter, and oil filter. In the maintenance of a diesel generator set, the maintenance of the three filters is very important. The quality of their work directly affects the performance and service life of the diesel generator set. Currently, Dingbo Power has found that some users do not properly maintain the "three filters", resulting in frequent unit failures and premature entry into the maintenance period. It is worth noting that if the "three filters" of a diesel generator leak oil or crack due to manufacturing reasons, they can be repaired normally, but damage caused by improper maintenance is not covered by the warranty. Below, Dingbo Electric will introduce the correct maintenance techniques for the "three filters".

1、 Oil filter

 

Oil filters can be divided into three types: centrifugal oil filters, paper oil filters, and metal slotted filters.

 

1. Key maintenance points for centrifugal oil filter

 

Special attention should be paid to the installation of the centrifugal fine filter after disassembly and cleaning, and there should be no jamming phenomenon. The inspection method is: after reinstalling the rotary filter, rotate the rotor with force by hand, and let go. If the rotor can rotate 2 to 3 turns and then stop, it is qualified.

 

2. When the pressure difference between the oil before and after the paper oil filter exceeds 1 kg/cm2, it indicates that the filter has been blocked and the oil cannot be filtered, which will enter the oil passage and increase wear. Therefore, maintenance should be carried out every 50 hours of operation, and the filter should be replaced within 150-200 hours, otherwise the filtering effect will not be achieved.

 

3. Metal belt gap filter, this type of oil filter should be cleaned once every 50-60 working hours. During cleaning, it is necessary to ensure that the metal mesh belt is not damaged, and cotton yarn or other objects are not used to scrub, in order to prevent blockage and sealing of the mesh.

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 (...

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...

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...
