What are the precautions for the use of diesel generators?

Time:2024-01-09
Diesel generators are a common backup power equipment, but some problems need to be paid attention to during use to ensure their normal operation and extend their service life. Here are some considerations for using a diesel generator:
Choose the right oil: Diesel generators need to use the right oil to ensure proper lubrication and cooling of the engine. Please choose the appropriate oil according to the model and use of the diesel engine, and ensure that the quality of the oil meets the requirements.

Regular inspection and maintenance: Regular inspection and maintenance of diesel generators, including cleaning and replacement of air filters, oil filters and fuel filters. At the same time, it is also necessary to check whether the engine, electrical system, cooling system and emission system are working properly.
Use the right fuel: Diesel generators need to use the right diesel to ensure the proper operation of the engine. Please use diesel that meets the requirements and ensure that the quality of diesel meets the requirements.
Pay attention to safe operation: When using diesel generators, you need to pay attention to safe operation to avoid accidents. For example, excessive refueling, overrunning or overloading should be avoided during operation.
Regular maintenance: Diesel generators need regular maintenance, including changing lubricants, checking and replacing air filters, cleaning fuel systems, etc. This ensures the normal operation of the engine and extends its service life.
Pay attention to the temperature of the exhaust pipe: too high or too low the temperature of the exhaust pipe may affect the normal operation of the generator. If the exhaust pipe temperature is too high, it may be caused by problems such as poor combustion or exhaust valve failure, and it needs to be checked and repaired.
Pay attention to the safety of the electrical system: when using diesel generators, you need to pay attention to the safety of the electrical system to avoid electric shock accidents. For example, when using electrical equipment such as cables, switches and generators, make sure it meets safety standards.
Pay attention to ambient temperature and operating conditions: the operation of diesel generators is affected by ambient temperature and operating conditions. In the process of use, it is necessary to pay attention to the surrounding environment and use conditions, such as temperature, humidity, pressure and altitude. If the conditions do not meet the requirements, it may affect the normal operation and service life of the generator.
Pay attention to control noise and vibration: diesel generators will produce noise and vibration during use, and it is necessary to pay attention to control its noise and vibration within an acceptable range. If the noise and vibration are too large, it may affect the surrounding environment and human health.
Note records and maintenance records: When using diesel generators, you need to record and maintenance records, including running time, maintenance and repair records. This helps to detect and deal with problems in a timely manner and extends the service life of the generator.
