What is the way to install electric generator

Step 1: Prepare the installation tools before installation

It is required special installation tools for installation and commissioning of diesel generator set, here are the standard tools for reference:

1.Tool box                                       11. 8mm Solid wrench

2.27’’ Vigorous plier                         12. Hammer

3.3x Cutting pliers                            13. 4’’ Cinquefoil screwdriver

4. Flat nose pliers                             14. 6’’ Cinquefoil screwdriver

5. Belt wrench                                  15. 4’’ Screwdriver

6. 8’’ Monkey wrench                         16. 6’’ Screwdriver

7. 17mm Solid wrench                       17. 334-4’’ Hex tools

8. 14mm Solid wrench

9.13mm Solid wrench

10.10m Solid wrench

 

Step 2: Environmental inspection before installation

Design reasonable installation environment: indoor and outdoor machine room. Meet the maintenance and operation requirements, ventilation and heat dissipation requirements, environmental noise requirements, smoke and heat insulation requirements, and the architectural standard requirements for the arrangement of seismic accessories. It is beneficial to give full play to the excellent characteristics of diesel generator set, prolong the service life and improve the reliability.


Layout principle of diesel generator set machine room

1.Except one end of the cooling water tank, the distance between the other sides and the wall of the machine room should not be less than 1m, so as to facilitate operation and maintenance in the future.

2.The distance between the height of the machine room roof and the top of the genset height shall not be less than 1.5 m. Generally, the room height shall not be less than 4.5 m, which is the min. distance that must be maintained for ventilation and heat dissipation of the genset and maintenance of lifting parts.

Outdoor layout principle of diesel generator set machine room

1.No barriers are allowed in each 1m space for operation and maintenance in future.

2.One end of the cooling water tank should not face the closed obstacles.

 

Step 3: Inspection of foundation(Environmental inspection)

1.The strength of the foundation must be able to support the wet weight (including unit, fuel oil and cooling water) and dynamic load of the unit.

2.The mass of the foundation can bear 2-5 times of the total mass of the unit, and a smaller value can be taken for the high-speed unit.

3.Each side of the foundation shall be 200 mm beyond the base of the unit.

4.The foundation shall be 200 mm above the ground to prevent water immersion.

Step 4: Open package to inspect the goods

1.According to the project implementation business process.

2.Check whether the package is damaged and verify the package number and quantity.

3.Do not damage the machine when unpacking. The order is to remove the top plate and then the side plate.

4.Check all units and accessories according to the unit list and packing list.

5.Check whether the main dimensions of the unit and accessories are consistent with the drawings.

6.Check the unit and accessories for damage and corrosion.

7.After unpacking, the unit should be kept in a horizontal position.


Step 5: installation of diesel generator set--hoisting

1.The outdoor soundproof genset can lifted to the foundation directly by forklift.

2.The unit must be kept in horizontal position during hoisting.

3.When hoisting diesel generator set, the steel wire rope with sufficient strength shall be used at the lifting position of the unit, which shall not be set on the shaft, and the oil pipe and dial shall be prevented from being damaged. The unit shall be lifted according to the requirements.

4.Refer to the technical operation and maintenance manual of the unit.

Step 6: Installation of diesel generator set--Horizontal positioning

1.Place the level meter on the upper end face of the soundproof cover (i.e. machining reference plane) to check the level.

2.The horizontal accuracy is the longitudinal and transverse horizontal deviation of 0.1 mm per meter. There should be no space between the foundation and the base frame, so that the force is uniform.

3.After confirm level position, do horizontal positioning operation to fix genset by using expansion bolts through the fixed holes on the unit base frame.


Step 7: Installation of fuel pipe

1.The distance between the bottom of the external fuel tank and the high-pressure oil pump shall not be higher than 1.5m, and the min. distance shall not be less than 2m.

2.The vibration will cause the sediment to rise, and the heat source may reduce the diesel engine power. So the installation position should avoid the heat source and vibration source as far as possible.

3.Install according to the fuel line connection diagram of the unit.

4.Lead plated water pipe or lead plating device shall not be used in fuel system.

5.The delivery oil pipe shall be no less than 50 mm higher than the bottom of the oil tank and away from the drain valve.

6.The installation must ensure that there is no leakage in the fuel pipeline.

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 ...
