Measures to Reduce Part Wear of Chongqing Cummins Diesel Generators

While a diesel generator set is operating under load, its parts are subject to varying degrees of wear. Of course, such wear of the generator set's parts is inevitable. However, users can still reduce the degree of part wear by paying attention to some details during the operation. So, what specific work should users of Chongqing Cummins diesel generator sets do to reduce part wear?

1.The quality of the fuel and lubricating oil for the diesel generator set must meet the standards and be compatible.

If the fuel of the generator set contains sulfur or other impurities, it will produce acids or other corrosive substances during combustion, accelerating the wear of the cylinders. If the heavy - fraction content in diesel is too high, carbon deposits will form after combustion, causing abrasive wear between the piston rings and the cylinders. The viscosity of the fuel has an impact on the formation of the air - fuel mixture and the reliability of the fuel supply equipment. For lubricating oil, viscosity and oxidation resistance have a significant impact. It should be selected and used reasonably according to the working conditions of the diesel generator set, and under no circumstances should it be used indiscriminately.

2.The ambient temperature of use affects the wear degree of the diesel generator set.

When the temperature is high, the generator set is prone to overheating, and the viscosity of the lubricating oil is low, which increases the wear of the parts. When the temperature is low, the viscosity of the lubricating oil increases, making it difficult to start the unit. During operation, the cooling water cannot maintain a normal temperature, increasing the wear and corrosion of the parts. The wear of the diesel generator set is even more severe during cold starts.

3.

The operating temperature of the diesel generator set is one of the important factors affecting wear. During use, due to limitations in the structure of the cooling system, changes in the operating load and speed, and changes in the ambient temperature, the operating temperature of the generator set varies widely. Practice has shown that it is most beneficial to control the cooling water temperature between 75 - 85°C and the lubricating oil temperature between 75 - 95°C.

In summary, to use the diesel generator set reasonably and reduce part wear, Dingbo Power Generation Equipment Manufacturer guides users to take the following measures in daily use:

a. Reasonably select the operating conditions of the generator set.

b. Improve the running - in quality of the Cummins generator set.

c. Select fuels and lubricating oils suitable for the engine's working requirements.

d. Improve the operating skills and carry out maintenance in a timely manner.
