Diesel Generator Tech

Sometimes, we can see small square cabins beside the roads in some residential areas. Occasionally, we may even spot workers opening them for inspections. During power outages, we can hear noises coming from inside. In fact, these are silent diesel generator sets, which are standard diesel generator sets equipped with silent enclosures. When some customers purchase diesel generator sets, due to certain limitations such as the absence of a built - in generator room, the units need to be installed outdoors. For those who need protection against wind, frost, rain, and snow but have no requirement for noise reduction, it is more cost - effective to install a rain - proof cover. If there are noise requirements, a silent enclosure should be installed. Some users need diesel generator sets for field construction and have special requirements, such as needing a silent, mobile, and rain - proof generator set. Generator sets with silent and mobile functions are all rain - proof, but rain - proo...

Generally, a generator's lifespan depends on multiple variables. On average, diesel generators last from 10,000 to 30,000 hours of use, which could be upward of 25 years or more of running constantly. Proper operation and maintenance of generator are essential to long-term system reliability that ensures availability and uptime. Improper operation may reduce the lifespan of diesel generator. Below are common four mistake to avoid when using your diesel powered generator. Reduce the engine speed for a long time Revolutions Per Minute (RPM) is a measure of the speed at which a diesel generator operates. The RPM rating of a generator can affect its noise level. Generator frequency is the number of electrical cycles per second, measured in Hertz (Hz) and this is directly proportional to the engine speed. For example, a diesel generator has a RPM rating of 1500rpm and the frequency is 50Hz. The rated voltage is 400V. This mode of operation is relatively fast and therefore produces lou...

In today's rapidly developing power industry, power grid construction is not only an important part of the national infrastructure, but also the key to ensuring social and economic development and people's well-being.

Generally, diesel generator sets are installed with a governor to keep a specified speed range. The governor can quickly and automatically adjust the fuel supply based on the change of load. It keeps balance between the generator output power and the load, ensuring the stable operation of the diesel generator set. For some reason, sometimes generator overspeeding problem may occur. Here we’ll explore the possible causes of overspeed in a diesel generator and what you need to do next. Causes of overspeed in a diesel generator   Typically, the generator overspeed problem may be caused by the following reasons: Faulty governor   The governor is designed to control the fuel to the engine cylinders so as to control the speed of the unit. If the governor malfunctions and cannot perform its function for some reason, the engine will over speed. Failure of the governor’s internal parts may cause failure of the governor. Governor drive failure...

This article continues to introduce the repair procedure for 700kw diesel generator components. Crankshaft and Flywheel Assembly The main damages to the crankshaft include: journal wear, cracks and fractures of the crankshaft, and ablation caused by bearing burnout. If the out - of - roundness of the crankshaft journal exceeds 0.05mm, the crankshaft journal needs to be ground. For a crankshaft with severe bearing burnout, since its metallographic structure has changed, it is generally not recommended to use it again. A crankshaft with cracks must be scrapped; otherwise, it may break. Warning: The installation of the crankshaft and flywheel assembly must be carried out personally by the engineering director, following the correct torque and correct steps. The main bearing cap screws must be re - checked. Cylinder Head and Valve Train 1.Cylinder Head Cracks are likely to occur at the joint plane between the cylinder head and the cylinder block, the valve guide holes, the valve seat...

The types of diesel generator sets suitable for schools are mainly divided into the following categories: imported diesel generator sets, joint - venture diese...

When designing the structure of a diesel generator soundproof enclosure, a number of important factors should be considered to ensure the comprehensiveness and practicality of its functions. For example, an acoustic enclosure should be able to house a diesel generator, including the diesel engine, alternator, batteries, circuit breaker, control system and noise reduction components and other relevant parts and accessories. This requires the designers to give due consideration to the rational layout of individual components in order to leave the necessary space for acoustic noise reduction, and to ensure the overall structure is stable and coordinated. Generally, the silent generator enclosures are designed as a rectangle. This design has strong adaptability and mobility. With superb manufacturing technique, the enclosures are suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. In order to save space and reduce length, the ends of the enclosure are sometimes cut at an oblique angle, which can be...

According to the specific conditions of the generator's electromechanical equipment and the construction conditions, different methods can be used to install the generator rotor. For most medium - and small - sized generators, the shaft - connecting method is used to install the rotor. As a special tool, the extension (short) shaft for rotor installation is generally supplied by the manufacturer along with the generator. The normal procedure for installing the rotor of a Mercedes - Benz generator set is as follows: 1.Place a 0.8 - 1.0 mm thick cardboard along the entire length of the lower half - arc inside the stator. Move it back and forth at any time during the entire process of rotor installation to check if the rotor collides with the stator. 2.Position 1: The rotor is equipped with a short shaft and a rear bearing seat. The wire rope is hung on the part of the rotor cylinder close to the center for balance, keeping the rotor horizontal. Align it with the center of the stat...

After purchasing a diesel generator, you can choose a suitable deliver option based on your needs. Dingbo Power diesel gensets sell well at home and abroad.
