If the oil pressure of Volvo generator sets or other brand generator sets is too low or too high during operation, it will affect the lubrication quality of diesel engines. Therefore, it is necessary to control the oil pressure within the specified range. During the operation of the Volvo generator set from low speed to high speed, the oil pressure gradually increases. After the Volvo generator set reaches the rated speed, the oil pressure slowly recovers to the specified value. If the specified value cannot be restored within 15 minutes, the oil pressure needs to be adjusted.


The shaking of the oil pressure gauge needle in Volvo generator sets is generally caused by a blockage in the oil filter. When the filter element is blocked by dirt or gum and the flow is not smooth, the pressure difference before and after oil filtration increases, causing the safety valve to open, and the main oil duct oil pressure rapidly increases, causing the pointer of the oil pressure gauge to swing upwards; At this point, the pressure difference between the front and rear of the safety valve decreases, causing the valve to close again. The oil pressure in the main oil passage decreases accordingly, and the pointer on the oil pressure gauge swings downward. When the pressure difference increases to a certain extent, it causes the safety valve to open again. This repeatedly causes the oil pressure gauge needle to shake, reflecting the unstable oil pressure in the main oil duct. When this phenomenon occurs, the filter element should be replaced, and the shaking of the oil gauge needle will disappear immediately.
