Diesel Generator Tech

Currently, most diesel engines use wax - type thermostats with stable working performance. When the temperature of the cooling water is lower than 83°C, the thermostat valve closes. The cooling water can only circulate in a small loop within the diesel engine without passing through the water tank for a large - scale circulation. This accelerates the rise of the cooling water temperature, shortens the warm - up time, and reduces the running time of the diesel engine at low temperatures. When the coolant temperature reaches the opening temperature of the thermostat valve, 83°C, as the temperature of the diesel engine gradually rises, the thermostat valve gradually opens. More and more coolant participates in the large - scale circulation for cooling, and the heat - dissipation capacity increases accordingly. Once the temperature reaches or exceeds the full - opening temperature of the main valve, 95°C, the main valve fully opens, and the auxiliary valve completely closes the small - c...

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...

The rated speed of our Cummins diesel generator is 1500 rpm. For the generator set to maintain a stable speed, a governor is required. The governor can automatically adjust the fuel supply according to the load changes of the diesel generator set. It can be said to be an essential factor for the stability of the Yuchai diesel generator. Now, let's specifically talk about the two main uses of the governor: 1. When the speed of the Cummins diesel generator deviates from the set value, the governor can promptly make corresponding reaction actions. It also has the function of a restoring force to return the governor to its initial state. You should know that the spring in the centrifugal governor of our diesel engine parts is the part that generates the restoring force. Such a governor is also called a statically stable governor. However, a statically stable governor may also experience dynamic instability during the adjustment process. When the adjustment action is excessive and rever...

Winter comes and diesel generator sets are faced with more complex and harsh operating environments. Factors such as low temperatures, increased humidity, and snow and ice can have an adverse effect on diesel generators, resulting in reduced generator performance or failure. To ensure the stable operation of your diesel generator in winter, today Dingbo Power shares several tips on generator maintenance in winter. Comprehensive generator inspections First of all, check the overall status, operating records, and historical fault data of your diesel generator. In this way, you can know the current condition of the equipment and determine the parts that need to be maintained and potential problems that exist. Perform a comprehensive inspection of the key components of your diesel generator set, such as the engine, alternator, fuel system, cooling system, and electrical system. Check for the wear, connections, tightness of the components and check if there is unusual noise or vibration....

We often learn some tricks to avoid being deceived. When buying things like Cummins diesel generator sets, we also need to learn some relevant common sense. Now, let's follow the editor of Guangxi Dingbo Power to find out! 1.First of all, you need to determine the power of the generator set you want to choose. The power of the diesel generator should be more than 30% larger than the selected power, and a 10% reserve for the motor power should be left. If there is a high - power single - motor (non - variable frequency start), the power of the diesel generator should be three times larger than that of the motor to start the motor smoothly.  2.You should make a choice on the brand and price of the diesel generator and the generator. For the diesel generator, you should consider configurations with mature technology, low fuel consumption rate, low maintenance cost, and high reliability. For the generator, generally, the products from regular domestic manufacturers that mass - produc...

When quoting the price of a diesel generator, it's still necessary to ask the customer about their budget and then recommend brands based on the generator price budget. There are significant price differences among generators of different brands. For example, there are prices for Cummins generators, Weichai generators, Volvo generators, and Shangchai generators. The lowest prices are for Weichai and Shangchai generators, followed by the joint - venture brand Cummins generators, and finally the imported brand Volvo generators. In addition, the price of a 600kW Yuchai diesel generator is also related to the following aspects:   First, the current market price ranges widely from hundreds of thousands to millions, and there is no specific price. How much does a diesel generator cost? It is related to the brand. Different brands have different prices, so you can collect more brand information for comparison. These prices are clearly marked online and can be queried.   Second, ...

As critical emergency power sources, diesel generators play a vital role during grid failures or natural disasters. However, extreme weather conditions—such as intense heat, humidity, sandstorms, and flooding—pose significant risks to generator performance, increasing the likelihood of malfunctions. Thus, implementing a robust preventive maintenance plan is essential to ensure uninterrupted operation of diesel generator sets under these challenging circumstances. Why preventive maintenance of diesel generator matters? A preventive maintenance strategy focuses on anticipating risks through regular inspections, servicing, and repairs. For diesel generators, this approach: Reduces downtime and financial losses from unexpected outages Enhances reliability and safety for mission-critical operations Extends equipment lifespan by addressing potential problems before failures occur Extreme weather threats & targeted solutions High-temperature challenges Risk: Overheating reduces ...

In modern times, diesel generators have become standard equipment across various industries. When grid power fails or becomes insufficient, diesel generator sets provide continuous and stable power supply for businesses or factories. A diesel generator set consists of three main components: a diesel engine, an alternator, and a control system. So, what exactly is an alternator?   About AC generators   Alternators can be categorized into two main types: DC generators and AC generators. AC generators are further subdivided into synchronous generators and asynchronous generators. In modern power stations, synchronous generators have become the most widely used type due to their unique excitation methods and ability to provide both active power and reactive power simultaneously. In contrast, asynchronous generators feature simpler construction and easier operation. However, their lack of independent excitation windings prevents them from supplying reactive power to loads and re...

Last week, our company's after - sales department received a repair call. The starting motor of a diesel generator set purchased from our company two years ago couldn't rotate. Our company immediately sent Technician Zhang to conduct maintenance. This kind of fault of the diesel generator set was a piece of cake for the experienced Technician Zhang. After his treatment, the problem was solved on the same day. The starting motor of a diesel generator set is also called a starter motor. Technician Zhang from Dingbo Power introduced that there are generally two situations for the failure of a diesel engine's starting motor to rotate. One is that the action sound of the electromagnetic switch's engagement can be heard, but the starting motor doesn't rotate. The reasons may be insufficient battery power, poor contact in the starting circuit, or a fault in the starting motor itself. The other is that the electromagnetic switch doesn't engage and the starting motor do...
