Idle Speed Problem of Diesel Industrial Generators

When we use diesel generator set, maybe we meet the problem of idle speed of engine, how to solve it? Today Starlight Power generator manufacturer answers for you.

There is no idle speed during cold start, which is generally normal, because the temperature is too low, the oil viscosity is too large, the engine resistance increases, the spray and evaporation conditions of diesel oil become worse, resulting in the engine can not maintain the minimum steady speed operation, and when the throttle is lifted, it will soon flameout. In this case, the throttle can be adjusted to operate slightly higher than idle speed, and the idle operation can be resumed after the engine warms up.

If the engine of diesel industrial generators has been used for a long time, there is no idling condition, and the fuel consumption is not normal with insufficient power, it is generally due to the excessive wear of the plunger and the increase of oil leakage during idling, which makes the fuel supply unable to meet the requirements of idling condition; or the cylinder pressure is too low, and the injection advance angle is too large and too small, which causes poor combustion conditions of the engine. As long as we deal with the problem of insufficient power, the idling condition will recover naturally.

If the above conditions are normal, consider whether the idle working element of the governor is abnormal. Check whether the governor spring is broken, or the governor element is worn too much or the spring is too soft, so that the centrifugal force of the flying hammer at idle speed is far greater than the spring tension and the oil is reduced, or the maintenance personnel adjust improperly. The fuel injection pump assembly must be removed for repair and adjustment on the test bench.

When checking the governor, first adjust it by idle screw. If the adjustment is invalid, adjust the pre tension of idle spring. The idle speed spring adjusting nut can be slightly screwed in or the spring seat can be padded to increase the preload and raise the idle speed. If the spring is broken, it should be replaced and then adjusted to restore the idle working performance.

Starlight Power is a diesel generator set manufacturer in China, founded in 1974, focused on high quality product for more than 43 years, covering Cummins, Volvo, Perkins, Deutz, Yuchai, Shangchai, Ricardo, Weichai etc. Power range is from 25kva to 3125kva.

Components of Cummins PT Fuel System

When it comes to Cummins generator, it is well known that the gensets have good quality, low fuel consumption, low noise, big output power and reliable performance. The reliable stability, economy, power performance, durability and environmental safety is welcomed by customers. In last article, we talk about CCEC Cummins diesel engines operating principles. Well, in this article, you will learn what are the major components of its PT Fuel System. Fuel System The PT fuel system is used exclusively on Cummins Diesels. The identifying letters, “ PT ” are an abbreviation for “ pressure-time ” . The operation of the Cummins PT Fuel System is based on the principle that the volume of liquid flow is proportionate to the fluid pressure, the time allowed to flow and the passage size through which the liquid flows. To apply this simple principle to the Cummins PT Fuel System , it is necessary to provide: 1. A fuel pump. 2. A means of controlling pressure of

Leroy-Somer Alternator AVR R450

1 - GENERAL INFORMATION of Leroy-Somer Alternator AVR R450 1.1 - Description The R450 AVR is supplied in a casing designed to be mounted on a panel with dampers. - Operating temperature: - 30°C to + 65°C. - Storage temperature: - 55°C to + 85°C. - Shocks on the base: 9 g depending on the 3 axes. - Vibrations: less than 10 Hz, 2 mm half-peak amplitude 10 Hz to 100 Hz: 100 mm/s, above 100 Hz: 8 g. The AVR is IP00, it must be incorporated in an environment which ensures it a IP20 protection. 1.2 - Characteristic The connection is realised by “Faston” connectors and the voltage sensing is single - phase. 2 - POWER SUPPLY Both the SHUNT/AREP & PMG excitation systems are controlled by the AVR. 2.1 - AREP excitation system With AREP excitation, the electronic AVR is powered by two auxiliary windings which are independent of the voltage sensing circuit. The first winding has a voltage proportional to the   alternator   main voltage (Shunt characteristic),
