Fault Location of Low Oil Pressure of Perkins Diesel Generator Set

Low oil pressure of Perkins diesel generator set is one of the common faults. When encountering low oil pressure fault, if it is not free and laborious to check one by one, how can we quickly and accurately find the fault part that causes low oil pressure of the set? Today, Starlight will introduce a good method for you.

First of all, Starlight will introduce to you the reasons that may cause the low oil pressure of the Perkins diesel generating set. There are many reasons for the low oil pressure, such as the loose main bearing, connecting rod bearing or camshaft bearing, the oil pipe of the main oil passage is damaged and leaked, the joints are loose, the pressure limiting valve is stuck and does not return, the oil pump is faulty and the filter screen of the filter is dirty.

Generally, the method to judge the fault location is to start from the oil pump and find the possible fault location one by one. This method takes time, manpower and material resources, so Starlight teaches you to use the "smoke blowing method" to determine the fault location. The characteristics of this method are intuitive, simple and fast, avoiding unnecessary disassembly, thus greatly improving the work efficiency.

The specific method is as follows: after confirming that the oil quality, oil pressure gauge and oil pressure sensor are normal, remove the oil pan, remove any plug on the main oil duct of the cylinder block, and press a rubber hose tightly on the plug hole; Then, after taking a puff of smoke, blow the smoke into the main oil duct, and observe the part where the smoke comes out, which is the fault part that causes the low oil pressure. If no smoke is emitted from all parts, it can be considered that the oil pump or filter collector is faulty.

Through the "smoke blowing method", you don't have to go to the trouble spot one by one, you can find the fault spot quickly and accurately, thus solving the problem of low oil pressure of Perkins diesel generator set, enabling the unit to resume normal operation as soon as possible, and ensuring the stable power supply of the enterprise.
