What to do if fuel mix with engine oil in diesel generator set?


The fuel oil and engine oil of diesel generator set have completely different functions. They can not be mixed. Once the fuel oil and engine oil are mixed, it means that the sealing of the unit is faulty, which happens sometimes in use.

Today Starlight Power tell you how to deal with it.

When fuel is mixed with engine oil in diesel generator set, it can be eliminated by the following methods:

1. The oil transfer pump membrane is rotted or degummed, which makes the diesel oil flow into the oil pan and mix with the oil. Remove the oil transfer pump, and apply corresponding pressure to the oil inlet pipe and oil outlet pipe on the oil pump test bench. If no diesel leakage is found, the oil transfer pump is intact.

2.The fuel injector has low injection opening pressure and poor atomization, which makes the diesel flow into the oil pan along the cylinder wall and mix with the oil. Remove the injector and test it on the high-pressure oil pump test bench. If the opening pressure of the injector meets the requirements and the atomization is good, it means that the injector is intact. Otherwise, repair or replace it.

3.The front end of the fuel injection pump leaks oil, that is, the oil seal at the front end of the fuel injection pump fails. Remove the inspection hole cover of the gear cover. If a large amount of diesel oil is ejected from behind the driving gear of the fuel injection pump, it can be concluded that the diesel oil is leaked into the oil pan by the fuel injection pump and mixed with the oil. Remove the fuel injection pump and test it on the high-pressure oil pump test bench. It is found that the oil seal at the front end gear Journal of many fuel injection pumps is deformed and a large amount of diesel oil is leaked. When the oil seal seat has the gear to be disassembled, use the trace (indentation) on the top of the special tool screw to deform the oil seal seat and the oil seal, causing diesel oil leakage. Finally, replace the fuel injection pump, and the fault can be solved.

It is difficult to find the mixture of fuel oil and engine oil of diesel generator set in the early stage, so you must not be careless when observing the operation and daily maintenance of the unit, do not wait situation of unit is serious, which will increase the difficulty of repair.

We hope above information can help you when you meet some related problem of diesel generator set.

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),
