Requirements for Operating Industrial Diesel Generator Sets

Industrial diesel generator sets are powerful equipment that should be used correctly.

The diesel generator set consists of a generator and an engine. This is for generating electricity.

These types of devices are placed in areas where the power grid is not connected, or as backup power sources in the event of a power outage. It can be used as a convenient tool, but there must be some safety precautions during installation and use.

Today, Dingbo Power will share with you 5 important safety tips to pay attention to when operating industrial generator sets, so that you can refer to them when operating diesel generators.

1. Follow the manufacturer's instructions.

When using a diesel engine, it is not possible to "manipulate" the engine. Follow the suggestions and guidance provided by the manufacturer.

Qualified personnel arrange refueling and maintenance. When you find any defects or damaged equipment on the diesel generator, you should immediately contact the inspector.

Regular maintenance will ensure the most efficient operation of diesel generators and their continuous use as much as possible. This also ensures safety and leaves time to prevent accidents in the event of any malfunctions.

2. Keep the environment around the diesel generator clean.

Diesel generators must have sufficient ventilation in order to discharge exhaust gases normally.

The exhaust gas emitted by diesel generators has strong toxicity. Some of them, such as carbon monoxide, can threaten life. The installation of an appropriate exhaust system is crucial to provide unobstructed air flow for handling emissions.

Remember, carbon monoxide is a silent killer, because you can't see or smell it. If you feel dizzy, dizzy, or other discomfort, please go to a ventilated area immediately.

3. Take all appropriate electrical protection measures.

When installing or repairing diesel generators, please ensure that all power sources, battery lines, and other electrical components are turned off and disconnected.

All wires, cables, and connectors must have good insulation. Confirm that they are the manufacturer's recommended current carrying capacity.

Do not let water come into contact with electrical equipment to avoid electric shock.

4. Smoking is not allowed!

Smoking around diesel generators is highly likely to cause fatal explosions.

Do not smoke near the fuel system, as they use flammable materials that are prone to ignition. Before connecting or refueling, be sure to turn off the diesel generator to cool the engine. If there is an emergency, please place a fire extinguisher nearby.

5. Wear protective equipment regularly.

When operating a diesel generator, gloves and goggles must be worn. Do not wear jewelry, loose clothing, or other items that are not conducive to the hands. Tie long hair behind the head or wear it in a hat.

Do not use diesel generators alone. Users should ensure that safety measures are taken and pay special attention to any potential hazards.
