Scrapping Conditions and Service Life Extension of Diesel Generator Sets

All mechanical equipment has its service life, and diesel generator sets are no exception. Many people are very concerned about the service life of generator sets, but what they should pay more attention to is the situations in which scrapping should be applied for, because using scrapped units is very dangerous. Today, we will introduce the situations in which diesel generator sets can be applied for scrapping.

Scrapping Conditions

1. Old generator set equipment that has exceeded the specified service life, whose main structure and components are severely worn, whose performance fails to meet the process requirements, and which cannot be repaired or has no value for repair and transformation.

2. Generator sets that seriously affect environmental protection and safety, will pollute the environment if continued to be used, cause personal safety accidents and endanger health, and are not economical to repair and transform.

3. Special equipment eliminated due to product model change or process modification, which is not suitable for modification and utilization.

4. Equipment seriously damaged due to accidental disasters or major accidents, which cannot be repaired for use.

5. Old equipment replaced by technical transformation and renewal that cannot be utilized or transferred out.

When the above five situations occur, you can apply for the scrapping of the diesel generator set. In order to ensure the safe use of the user's unit, everyone must keep these five points in mind. Generally speaking, the service life of a generator set is: the service life of domestic generator sets is10,000hours /10years; the service life of imported generator sets is12,000hours /12years. How can we extend the service life of diesel generator sets on this basis?

Service Life Extension Methods

1.Regular maintenance is required: Generator sets that complete the maintenance work on time, in the right amount and with good quality have a much longer service life than those that often fail to perform maintenance on time and do not do a good job in generator maintenance due to the use of inferior engine oil and other reasons.

2.Use site environment: Generator sets used in clean enclosed sites have a much longer service life than those used in harsh outdoor environments. Harsh environments refer to: poor air quality or even dusty, harsh weather below0℃ or even ultra-low temperature or ultra-high temperature weather environments, which will cause certain damage to the generator set and affect its service life.
