What are the common failure types of cylinder of silent 400kw generator set?

What are the common failure types of cylinder of silent 400kw generator set?

Wear is the main failure type of the cylinder of diesel generator set. Whether the internal combustion engine needs to be overhauled or not depends on the wear degree of the cylinder.

Therefore, to study the causes of the cylinder wear of the generator set and grasp its wear law is not only of certain significance to test the degree of cylinder wear of the diesel generator set, but also of great importance to take effective measures in the maintenance, management and use of the internal combustion engine in order to reduce the cylinder wear and prolong the service life of diesel engine of 400kw diesel generator set.

Silent diesel generator

What is the main regularity of cylinder wear of silent 350kw diesel generator set?

1.The wear in the moving area of piston ring is larger. This kind of wear is uneven, heavy on the top and light on the bottom, making the cylinder "tapered" along the length direction. The great wear occurs when the piston is at the top dead center, and the cylinder wall opposite to the piston ring is slightly lower. Small wear occurs in the lower part of the cylinder, that is, the cylinder wall beyond the piston stroke.

2.Under the normal working condition of the cylinder block, from the plane of the cylinder, the wear along the circumference direction is also uneven, some directions wear larger, some directions wear smaller, making the cylinder cross-section out of round state. The most worn parts of cylinder cross section are near the cylinder wall opposite to the intake valve and both sides of the cylinder wall along the swing direction of the connecting rod.

3.There is almost no wear on the part not in contact with the piston. After diesel engine works for a long time, the obvious step is formed above the piston ring. This step is commonly known as "cylinder shoulder".

4.For multi cylinder engine, the wear of each cylinder is inconsistent. This is mainly caused by the fact that the working performance, cooling strength and assembly of each cylinder cannot be completely consistent.

The first and second regularity seriously affect the performance of the internal combustion engine. When the taper and out of roundness exceed a certain range, the normal fit of piston, piston ring and cylinder will be destroyed, which makes the piston ring not tightly pressed on the cylinder wall, resulting in air leakage and lubricating oil carry-over. When it is serious, "knocking" will occur, which will increase the fuel consumption of the internal combustion engine of the generator set and significantly reduce the power, so that it can not work normally, or even cause accidents.

What is another common failure type of cylinder of silent 350kw generator set?

Crack is the another common failure type. The reasons is as follows:

1.Manufacturing or material quality is not qualified, that is to say, fake and inferior products.
2.Improper operation. For example, during the operation of the diesel engine, when the water is insufficient or even the water is cut off, the diesel engine will overheat. In this situation, if cold water is added suddenly, the cylinder liner will shrink and crack. Or when the diesel engine is overloaded for a long time, the mechanical load and thermal load increase sharply, which will also cause cracks in the cylinder liner.

When the cylinder of diesel generator set cracks, it often brings serious consequences.
1.If the crack leaks and the cooling water enters the cylinder, the phenomenon of "water pad" will be produced in the cylinder, which will cause the "top cylinder" accident (the compressibility of water is very small, when it is pushed up by the piston, a lot of pressure will be generated), make bend or damage other parts of an internal combustion engine.

2.Water leaks into the crankcase and gets mixed into the engine oil, which destroys the lubricating performance of the engine oil and causes serious accidents such as shinning.

How to prevent cracks in cylinder liner of diesel generator set?
1.Manage the unit in strict accordance with the operating procedures.
2.Ensure the normal cooling of the generator set, and prohibit long-term overload operation.

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 ...
