Instructions to Do Diesel Generator Set Commissioning



Diesel engine unsealing
In order to prevent the diesel engine from rusting, when the product leaves the factory, both inside and outside is sealed with oil. Therefore, after the new unit is installed and meets the installation requirements, it must be unsealed before it can start. Otherwise, it will cause the danger. So it should be taken seriously.






The steps to remove the oil seal are as follows:

1) Heating the diesel above 45 to 56 for cleaning and removing the external anti-rust oil.

2) Heating water aover 90 , then continuously pouring water through the water jacket outlet, flowing out from the plug assy Irain (or water pump inlet) on the side of the cylinder body, continuously for 2--3 hours, and rolling the crankshaft discontinuously to make the anti-proof oil of piston top, cylinder liner surface and elsewhere dissolves and flows out.

3) Clean the oil sump with clean diesel oil and replace it with new oil.

Cooling and fuel system, fuel injection speed regulation system, water pump and starting drive system should be cleaned and checked in accordance with the requirements of the instructions, and sufficient clean cooling water should be added, starting batteries should be fully charged, and preparations should be made for the start up of the machine.

Inspection before the genset has a test
1. Inspection procedures

1) Check whether the surface of the unit is clean. The anchor nut, flywheel screw and other moving parts are not loosened. It must be fastened if any problems found.

2) Check whether the clearance of each part is correct, especially check the intake & exhaust valve clearance to make sure it meets the requirements.

3) Put each cylinder in the pressure reducing position, rotate the crankshaft to check if there is any abnormal sound in the operating sound of the cylinder parts, and whether the crankshaft rotates freely. At the same time, pump the engine oil into the friction surface. Then, close the pressure - reducing device, shake the crankshaft, and check the cylinder for air leakage. If the crankshaft is very difficult to shake, it indicates that the compression is normal.


4) Check fuel supply system, steps are as follows:

Check whether the venthole on the fuel tank cover is smooth and clean if there is dirt in the hole. Whether the diesel added meets the required brand number, whetehr oil mass is adequate, and turn on the oil circuit switch.

Open the mechanism of decompressor to shake the crankshaft. If each cylinder has a clear injection sound, it indicates that the injection is good. Whereas, there may be air in the oil line. This moment, you should rotate the fuel filter and injection pump air bleed screw to eliminate the air in the oil line.

Check whether there is oil leakage in the oil pipe and joint, and deal with the problems in time if found.

5) Check water cooling system, procedures are as follows:

Check whether the cooling water in the tank is sufficient. If the water is insufficient, clean soft water should be added.

Check whether there is water leakage in the joint pipe and solve the problem in time.

Check that the impeller rotation of the cooling water pump is flexible and the belt is tight and appropriate. When checking whether the belt  is tight, push the middle of the driving belt. It is suitable if the driving belt is pressed down 10-15mm.


6) Check lubricating system

Check the oil pipe and pipe joints for oil leakage and solve the problem in time

Check the oil mass of the oil pan, draw out the oil dipstick next to the crankcase, observe whether the height of the oil surface is in accordance with the rules, otherwise, add oil to the diesel engine, add No.8 or 11 engine oil in winter, and add No.14 oil in summer. Check again, if found that the oil surface height is above the normal, should be carefully analyzed the reasons for the increase in oil, usually there are three reasons.

a. Add too much oil

b. Diesel oil leaks into the crankcase and dilutes the oil.

c. The cooling water leaked into the oil.


7) Check starting system

a. First, check whether the specific gravity of starting system is within the range of 1.240 ~ 1.280. If the specific gravity is less than 1.180, it indicates that the battery power is insufficient.

b. Check whether the power line is correct.

c. Check whether there is contamination or oxidation on the battery terminal, it should be cleaned up.

d. Check whether the electric contact of starting motor and electro-magnetic control is good.

How to Read Alarm Codes From SmartGen Genset Controller

Auto Module Control Panel is the configuration for nobody on duty controlling generators. This kind of panel adopts auto module control system, with large LCD display to show the menu, such as SmartGen controller. Features:   1. SmartGen 6110 can receive remote output signal from ATS and realize auto start and stop of generators. 2. SmartGen 6310 can realize all functions of 6110, add RS232 interface which can communicate with PC to realize remote operation.  3. SmartGen 6410 Auto Mains Failure controller, can realize all functions of 6310, furthermore can detect  ATS and control directly. The alarm of diesel generator controller is not the amount of stop alarm, which does not affect the normal operation of diesel generator. When the alarm occurs, the unit will not stop, and when the alarm conditions do not exist, the amount of warning will automatically disappear.  Today Starlight manufacturer mainly shares alarm codes for diesel generato...

How to know and solve faults of genset voltage transformer

 Today Starlight Power shares the common faults for voltage transformer of diesel generator set. Hope it is helpful to you. 1) The insulation between iron chips is damaged. Fault phenomenon: temperature rises during operation. The possible causes of the failure are: poor insulation between iron chips, bad use of environmental conditions or long-term operation under high temperature, which promote the insulation aging between iron chips. (2) Poor contact between grounding plate and iron core. Fault phenomenon: there is discharge sound between iron core and oil tank during operation. Cause of failure: the grounding plate is not inserted tightly, and the mounting screw is not tightened. (3) The iron core is loose. Fault phenomenon: abnormal vibration or noise during operation. The cause of failure: the iron core clamp is not clamped, and the iron chip is loose. (4) Turn to turn short circuit of winding. Fault phenomenon: during operation, the temperature rises, there is ...
