Precautions for Using Mobile Trailer Diesel Generator Set Part 1

The mobile trailer generator set, also known as a mobile power station, is characterized by its mobility. It is highly needed in fields such as field engineering construction, emergency rescue, disaster relief, mining, military, and communication to improve the convenience of people's work in these areas. What issues should be noted when using a mobile trailer generator set? Diesel generator manufacturer Guangxi Dingbo Electric summarizes the following points, hoping to be helpful to users of mobile trailer generator sets.

After the mobile trailer generator set (mobile power station) is put into normal use, its operating status should be closely monitored. The indication values of all instruments should be frequently monitored and the overall operating status of the machine should be observed. The cooling system and some lubricating oil levels should be checked regularly. If any non-compliance or leakage is found, the cause should be immediately supplemented or checked to eliminate the fault of the mobile trailer generator set.

1. The working temperature of the mobile trailer generator set cannot be too low. When it is too low, the wear rate of the parts will accelerate, and the cylinder liner is also prone to cavitation. In addition, at low temperatures, lubricating oil has high viscosity and poor fluidity, which makes it difficult to enter the lubricating surface in a timely manner, and the fit between the piston and the cylinder is poor, making it easy to burn the engine oil. Therefore, it is generally stipulated that after the diesel generator set is started, the vehicle must be warmed up at a medium speed. The vehicle can only start driving when the water temperature reaches 40 ℃ or above, and can only operate with load after the water temperature reaches 60 ℃.

2. When using in winter, attention should be paid to antifreeze. After using the mobile trailer generator set, the cooling water should be drained to avoid freezing and damaging the body. Antifreeze can also be added to the cooling system to prevent the cooling water from freezing. If the temperature of the cooling water is too high before draining, the mobile trailer diesel generator set should be operated at low speed for a period of time, and the water should be drained after the temperature drops to avoid deformation or cracking of the cylinder head and cylinder block due to rapid temperature changes.

3. Pay attention to checking the tension of the fan belt. For diesel generator sets with natural convection cooling system, it is necessary to regularly check the tension of the fan belt during use. If the belt is too tight, it will accelerate the wear of the components and belt; The belt is too loose and the fan speed is not enough, which affects the cooling effect.

During the operation of the mobile trailer generator set, especially when the load is suddenly reduced, attention should be paid to preventing the diesel engine speed from suddenly increasing beyond the specified value due to the failure of the governor. Guangxi Dingbo Electric Power recommends that once such a situation occurs, emergency parking measures should be taken quickly, and then the cause should be identified and repaired.

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...
