How to Avoid Excessive Wear of 600KW Yuchai Diesel Generator Set?

 Mechanical equipment is inevitably prone to wear and tear after a period of use, and Yuchai diesel generator sets are no exception. But if it is excessive wear or abnormal wear, such a situation is abnormal and must be taken seriously. Generally, it is due to improper use by the user or machine failure. Therefore, it is necessary to understand the reasons that cause the wear of the diesel generator set in order to take targeted measures to avoid excessive wear and shorten the service life of the diesel generator set.

The wear of 600KW diesel generator sets such as Yuchai generator set, Cummins diesel generator set, and Shangchai generator set is generally affected by the quality of fuel and lubricating oil, the operating speed and load of the diesel engine, environmental conditions, and operating conditions.

The quality of fuel and lubricating oil should be compatible with the structure of the diesel generator set. If diesel contains sulfur or other impurities, acids and other corrosive substances will be produced during combustion, accelerating cylinder wear; Excessive heavy fractions in diesel can easily form carbon deposits after combustion, causing abrasive wear on piston rings and cylinders; The viscosity of diesel has an impact on the formation of the mixture and the reliability of the fuel supply equipment. For lubricating oil, viscosity and antioxidant properties have a significant impact, and should be selected and used reasonably based on the working conditions of diesel generators and engines. They should not be used indiscriminately.

The friction of a diesel engine increases with the increase of speed and load. When the load increases, the unit pressure on the friction surface increases, resulting in poor thermal conditions. When the speed increases, the number of frictions per unit time increases, and at the same power, the wear is greater when the speed increases than when the load increases. However, excessively low rotational speeds also increase wear due to the inability to ensure good liquid lubrication conditions. So, for a certain diesel engine, there is an optimal operating speed range. In addition, when the diesel engine frequently accelerates, decelerates, stops, and starts, due to frequent changes in speed and load, the lubrication conditions of the diesel engine are poor, the thermal state is unstable, and wear increases. Especially during start-up, the crankshaft speed is low, the oil pump does not supply oil in a timely manner, the refueling temperature is low, the oil viscosity is high, and it is difficult to establish liquid lubrication on the friction surface, resulting in severe wear.

The working temperature of diesel generator sets is one of the important factors affecting wear and tear. The temperature of the operating environment also has an impact on the wear and tear of diesel generator sets. When the temperature is high, the engine is prone to overheating, the viscosity of lubricating oil is low, and the wear of parts increases. When the temperature is low, the viscosity of lubricating oil increases, making it difficult to start the diesel engine. During operation, the cooling water cannot maintain a normal temperature, which increases the wear and corrosion of parts. The 600KW diesel generator set experiences more severe wear during low-temperature starting. During use, due to the limitations of the cooling system structure, changes in workload and speed, changes in ambient temperature, and other factors, the operating temperature of the diesel engine varies greatly. Practice has shown that controlling the cooling water temperature between 75-85 ℃ and the lubricating oil temperature between 75-95 ℃ is most advantageous.

Guangxi Dingbo Electric Power has obtained the following summary: Methods to prevent excessive wear and tear of Yuchai diesel generator sets or other brand generator sets: Reasonably choose the operating conditions of the diesel engine, select fuel and lubricating oil suitable for the engine, improve the operating skills of the staff, and carry out timely maintenance.

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.

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...

How to Choose a Household Mini Generator

With the improvement of people's living standards, there are more and more household appliances, such as rice cookers, microwaves, kettles, refrigerators, air - conditioners, washing machines, etc. It can be said that every household has them. But what if there is a power outage? These appliances won't work properly, and our lives will be greatly disrupted. How can we avoid this? We can use household mini - generators to provide convenience in power consumption. So, how to choose a good household mini - generator? Consider the noise level Since it is for household use, when choosing a household mini - generator, we need to check whether the noise will affect the neighbors. Generally, the seller will demonstrate the performance of the generator in advance. A good household generator can reduce noise by about 80%. Choose a generator with a moderate price Due to different brands, there are significant differences in power, and consequently, the price differences of househ...

How to Choose Efficient Diesel Generators for the Film and Television Industry?

In the film and television industry, the stability of the electricity supply during filming is crucial. Whether the equipment are the cameras or the lighting equipment on the filming site, or the post-production equipment, they all need stable and reliable power support. Unstable or interrupted power can result in interrupted filming, damage to equipment, and even affecting the progress and quality of the entire project. Therefore, investing in high-efficiency diesel generator sets has become an important measure for the film and television industry to ensure the reliable power supply for shooting. Determine the power requirements Before choosing a diesel generator set for the film and television industry, it’s necessary to figure out the total power needs, including the electricity demand of the shooting location, the total power of the electrical equipment and the time of using electricity. Also consider whether there are special needs for the generators such as low noise level and...
