How to Decrease the Consumption of Diesel Generator





The main fuel used in diesel generators is diesel fuel, and the cost of using it continues to rise as oil prices continue to rise. There are many users who are concerned about the fuel consumption of diesel generator sets. So how to use diesel generator more fuel-efficient? What details should you pay attention to in the process of using?

In the operation of diesel generator set, because of the high temperature produced by the relevant parts during combustion, the ash carbon polymer is attached to the valve, valve seat, fuel injector, piston top and so on. Failure to clean up in time will increase fuel consumption and seriously affect the normal operation of the engine. In general, it is best to clear it once a month for 4-6 months. At the same time, the cooling water temperature of diesel generator set should be kept around 45-61 , if the water temperature is too low, it will cause incomplete combustion of diesel oil and increase the load of the machine itself. Cooling water is best to use mineral-free "soft water", that is, not to abuse sewage, muddy water. In addition, the diesel generator set should not be overloaded during operation. It is operated as a pony pulley type overload. Otherwise, it will result in a considerable amount of diesel oil turning into black smoke, without giving full play to its due efficiency, resulting in an increase in fuel consumption of diesel generator set, and shortening the service life of relevant components.

In addition to the use details mentioned above, it is also important to carry out regular maintenance and maintenance of diesel generating units in accordance with the maintenance manual. By checking the injection pressure, adjusting the valve clearance, checking the fuel supply time and so on to ensure that the parts and components are always in good operation condition, avoiding the "disease" operation is the key to realize the high efficiency and fuel saving of the diesel generator set.

1. Timely removal of carbon deposits

During the combustion operation of diesel generator, the relevant components produce high temperature, which causes the ash carbon polymer to be attached to the valve, valve seat, injector, piston top and so on. If not cleared in time, it will increase fuel consumption, resulting in an impact on the normal operation of the engine, the general cleaning period of 4-6 months.

2. Keep the temperature of cooling water at 45-65

If the temperature of cooling water is too low, it will cause incomplete combustion of diesel fuel and increase the load of the machine itself. In addition, the selection of cooling water needs certain conditions, not to use mineral "soft water", such as distilled water, Rain Water, not to use sewage, muddy water.

3. Do not overload

If the diesel engine is overloaded, it will cause some diesel fuel to turn into black smoke, which will not play its due role and increase the fuel consumption. At the same time, it will shorten the service life of the relevant parts and components.

In addition to the above mentioned fuel-saving methods, regular maintenance and maintenance of diesel generators in accordance with the maintenance manual is also very important.

In addition to the operation and maintenance of diesel generators, fuel saving can be achieved by the following three methods.

1. Choose the brand of diesel generator carefully

Why is saving fuel related to the choice of generator brand? Diesel generator set as long as it can generate electricity, right? This is wrong. Take the generator set as an example. The quality of the big brand is guaranteed and the use of the generator is assured. In the event of a problem, the service is reassuring. Famous diesel generator set brand technology mature, far more than a few small brands or miscellaneous brands. Therefore, it is important to choose the right diesel generator brand.

2. Minimize the use frequency of diesel generators.

Do not run the diesel generator set as much as possible, minimize the time and times to use it. Diesel generators generate electricity far higher than State Grid. So try to reduce the use of it, but do not use generating units should also pay attention to the maintenance of generating sets.

3. Don't select cheap only

Pay attention to maintenance when using diesel generator set. When the generator manufacturer tells us we need a major repair or a medium repair, do not think that there is no trouble to ignore it. Users must not covet small cheap, must contact the factory to carry on the maintenance, such ability reduces the unnecessary diesel fuel wastage.

The above three points are mainly to remind everyone of the fuel saving method of diesel generator set from the purchasing stage. The quality, use effect, energy saving and environmental protection effect of diesel generator set are mostly linked to the genset price. Users should consider synthetically, careful choice, avoid fall into price trap, bring trouble for later use.

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 ...
