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.

It is an ISO standard power with limited fuel consumption.   Operating Conditions and Applications of Baudouin  500KW Weichai Generator Set  Diesel Engine Power Classification Operating Co...

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 ...
