What should we do when using diesel generator controller

Genset controller is mainly used to distribute the electric energy output by the generator to the user's load or electrical equipment, and to indicate the working condition of the diesel generator and to maintain the voltage stability of the generator under the condition of load change.

 

Genset control panel is usually equipped with voltmeter, frequency meter, ammeter, power meter, three-phase current conversion switch, three-phase voltage conversion switch, voltage setting knob and various indicator lights. About oil pressure gauge, oil temperature gauge, battery charging ammeter, water temperature gauge, start button and start electric lock and other components. Some devices are directly installed on the control panel according to the description requirements, and some devices are installed on the external panel of diesel engine. The components of the internal device of the control panel are mainly related to the excitation method of the generator and the active control of the diesel engine.

 

The internal structure of diesel generator set control panel.

The simple control panel is usually equipped with voltage regulator, silicon rectifier diode, rheostat, active air switch and current transformer and other components, while the disordered control panel is equipped with overload and short circuit protection device, electronic governor, silicon controlled rectifier, relay, various safety devices and small transformer and other electrical equipment.

 

diesel genset


The use of diesel generator sets will vary according to the regional differences. The main reason is that the power of the generator has decreased, and the fuel consumption of diesel oil is still increasing, and the heat load is constantly rising. Therefore, we start from the theoretical point of view, and analyze the impact of high original environment on the performance of the generator set according to examples.

 

In plateau area, the air pressure is low, the air is thin, and the air volume containing oxygen is less. For the diesel generator with natural suction, the combustion condition will become worse due to insufficient air intake, so the diesel generator will not send out the original specified rated power. Diesel generators are basically the same, so it can be seen that their working capacity has declined in plateau environment.

 

The output current of generator set will change with the change of altitude, and decrease with the increase of altitude. Besides, fuel consumption index and electrical performance index will be added.

Due to the high altitude of the plateau, the temperature of the environment is lower than that of the plain, and the air in the plateau is thin, so the starting performance of the diesel engine is relatively poor in the plateau area. Therefore, it is suggested that the user should take corresponding temperature assisted measures when using it.

 

The boiling point of water decreases with the increase of altitude, and the air pressure and quality of cooling air decrease, which increases the increase of heat dissipation. However, since the cooling system is worse than the plain environment, it should be noted that the open cooling cycle should not be used in the plateau altitude area, and the pressurized closed cooling system can be used.

 

After all, there is a great gap between the plateau and the flat land. We must pay attention to it when purchasing and using control panel of diesel generator, otherwise it will have a great impact on the work efficiency and cause certain economic losses.

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 ...
