Requirements for Diesel Generator Set Operators

Diesel generator sets have large capacities. They can operate in parallel, provide continuous power supply for a long time, and can also work independently without being connected to the regional power grid. They are not affected by power grid faults and have high reliability. Especially in some areas where the regular power supply is not very reliable, using diesel generator sets as backup power can not only serve as an emergency power source but also, through the reasonable optimization of the low - voltage system, supply power to some important loads during power outages. Therefore, they are widely used in engineering.

Cummins generator sets must be operated by designated personnel. Enterprises should set up corresponding management positions for diesel generator sets. The Cummins generator set equipment also has high technical requirements for operators. What are the basic requirements for an operator? Let's find out and see if you are a qualified diesel generator set technician.

1.Diesel generator set technicians should inspect the generator set on time every day and report any problems immediately.

2.Conduct a test run every Monday. Before starting the generator, the on - duty personnel should check that the fuel oil, engine oil, etc. are sufficient and normal, and there are no leaks. After confirming that there are no alarms on the control panel, start the generator normally.

3.At least two staff members should operate and supervise the starting, stopping, and maintenance of the generator set, and consciously implement safety precautions.

4.Do not start the generator set when it is in an unsafe state. Hang a maintenance sign and disconnect the battery connection to make the unit in an inoperable state, preventing uninformed personnel from operating it.

5.For an engine with newly replaced engine oil or filter, let it run for a few minutes and then stop it and wait for 15 minutes.

6.The generator is not allowed to be started more than 3 times continuously.

7.Do not check the water level when the engine is starting or the water tank temperature is high.

8.Only add fuel to the generator when it is stopped.

9.When the generator is running, do not wear metal accessories or loose clothing and approach rotating parts and electrical equipment.

10.The battery charging process produces explosive hydrogen. It is strictly prohibited to approach and there should be no open flames nearby.

11.If the generator has abnormal parameters, abnormal sounds, or emits black smoke, do not continue to run it. Immediately press the stop button; in an emergency, directly press the red emergency stop button and report to the station leader.

Diesel generator set technicians should establish the idea of "safety first". They should often inspect the operating conditions of diesel generator equipment to prevent accidental electrical equipment accidents. When an accident occurs, the operator should keep a clear head and troubleshoot according to the operating procedures in a timely manner.

During the duty, operators must be responsible, conduct frequent inspections and adjustments to ensure that the operating parameters are within the required range. During the inspection, they should: first, look to see if there are any abnormalities in the generator set; second, check if the parameters of each part during operation are normal; third, listen to see if there are any abnormal sounds during the operation of the generator set; and fourth, smell to see if there are any abnormal odors during the operation to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

Dingbo Power was founded in 1974 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to [email protected] we will pay highly attention on your question.
