Reasons for The Classification of Diesel Generator Sets 2

This article continues to introduce the classification of diesel generators for diesel generator users.

Classified by purpose

1. Commonly used generators, such as generator sets, operate year-round and are usually located in areas far from the power grid (or city power) or near industrial and mining enterprises to meet the construction, production, and living electricity needs of these areas. At present, in regions with rapid economic development, the construction of power grids cannot keep up with the needs of users, and commonly used diesel generator sets with short construction cycles are set up to meet the needs of users. This type of generator set generally has a large capacity and provides continuous power supply for non constant loads. There is no limit on the duration of continuous operation, and the well allows for an overload power supply time of 10% of the rated output power every 12 hours. This type of unit has a long operating time and heavy load, and the allowable power relative to the maximum power of the unit is adjusted to a lower point.

2. Under normal circumstances, the power required by users is supplied by the municipal power supply. When the municipal power supply is limited or interrupted due to other reasons, the generator set set up to ensure the basic production and life of users is the backup unit. This type of generator set is commonly used in important power consuming units such as telecommunications departments, hospitals, industrial and mining enterprises with tight power supply, airports, and television stations. This type of unit is always in standby mode, capable of providing continuous power supply to non constant loads, and has no limit on the duration of continuous operation.

3. Emergency generator sets are often set up to provide emergency power to electrical equipment that may cause significant losses or personal accidents due to sudden interruption of mains power. Such as the fire protection system of high-rise buildings, evacuation lighting, elevators, control systems for automated production lines, important communication systems, and medical equipment that is performing important surgeries on patients. This type of unit should be able to quickly start and operate in the event of a sudden interruption of mains power, and provide stable AC power to the load in the shortest possible time to ensure timely power supply to the load. This type of unit requires a high degree of automation.

Classified by appearance and structure

Basic type unit: The basic type unit is the most commonly seen diesel generator set in daily life. It may be a manual unit, a self starting unit, or a microcomputer controlled automation unit.

Silent type unit: The essential difference between a silent diesel generator set and a basic type unit is that the unit is equipped with an external soundproof cover and a silencer, which reduces the noise of the unit. This type of unit is suitable for special occasions that require low noise, such as schools, hospitals, and high-end elevator apartments.

Vehicle mounted unit: The vehicle mounted unit is a unit designed and manufactured specifically for emergency power supply, which installs the entire diesel generator set in the car compartment and usually requires noise reduction treatment.

Trailer unit (power station): Usually, trailer units are equipped with trailer trucks on the basis of silent diesel generator sets, achieving convenient movement of the unit and suitable for short distance emergency power supply in urban areas.

Fangcang (container) type unit: The entire diesel generator set is installed inside the Fangcang and is designed specifically for power supply in field engineering construction. The unit power is generally above 500KW.
