Can You Hear The Cylinder Failure Of Perkins Diesel Generator Set

Perkins diesel generator makes noise due to surface or internal structure vibration. Different types of diesel generator common faults, parts, size of vibration will also produce different sound effects. As the diesel generator vibrates during operation, the surface or internal structure compresses, deforms and vibrates, and then causes acoustic frequency. The sound characteristics of this sound frequency include: the loudness of the sound (i.e. the size and compressive strength of the sound), the frequency and timbre of the sound. However, it should be noted that the sound of Perkins diesel generator can well reflect its operation, so the cylinder failure of Perkins diesel generator can be heard by ear.

As one of the common generators, Perkins diesel generator is widely used in many fields. Like other diesel generator, Perkins generators will have some problems after being used for a long time, but we non professionals can only use some simple methods to judge the problems of generators, and the more direct and convenient method in these methods is to use the senses to judge. So, how to judge the problems of Perkins diesel generator with senses? Today, the editor will teach you some methods to listen to cylinder faults with your ears. Let's take a look together!

When hearing abnormal noises during the operation of a diesel engine, the first step is to determine where the noise comes from, such as inside the valve chamber, inside the engine body, at the front cover plate, at the junction between the generator and the diesel engine, or inside the cylinder. After determining the location, it is necessary to make a judgment based on the working principle of the diesel engine.

1. The sound inside the body.

When hearing abnormal noises during the operation of a diesel engine, the first step is to determine where the noise comes from, such as inside the valve chamber, inside the engine body, at the front cover plate, at the junction between the generator and the diesel engine, or inside the cylinder. After determining the location, it is necessary to make a judgment based on the working principle of the diesel engine.

2. Sound from the upper part of the body or inside the valve body.

When abnormal noises are heard in the upper part of the body or in the valve chamber, it can be considered that the valve clearance is not adjusted properly, the valve spring is broken, the rocker arm seat is loose, or the valve push rod is not placed in the center position of the tappet.

3. The noise at the connection between the diesel engine and the generator.

When the abnormal noise occurs at the joint between the diesel engine and the generator, it can be considered that there is a malfunction in the internal interface rubber ring between the diesel engine and the generator. When the abnormal noise comes from inside the cylinder, it can be concluded that the oil supply advance angle is not adjusted properly or the wear gap between the piston and cylinder sleeve increases.
