Maintenance Method of Silent Diesel Generator Set in Winter

Nov. 18, 2022

As for the specific maintenance method of the silent diesel generator set in winter, the first problem is the lubricating oil of the silent diesel generator set that needs to be replaced. The conditions for replacing the lubricating oil: if the indoor temperature is lower than 0 ℃, the viscosity of the lubricating oil suitable for other seasons will increase, which is not conducive to the lubrication of the internal parts of the engine and affects the engine starting. The low viscosity lubricating oil needs to be replaced.

Model selection of low viscosity lubricating oil for silent diesel generator set: CF-4-15W-40 lubricating oil sold in gas station is generally selected to meet the lubricating oil demand of silent diesel generator set in winter.


How to change the lubricating oil of silent diesel generator set:


Use a flat plate to put it under the lubricating oil drain port of the silent diesel generator set, use a wrench to disassemble the screw rod and slowly drain the lubricating oil;


Check the lubricating oil dipstick to confirm whether the lubricating oil is completely drained. Wipe the dipstick clean for observation during each inspection;


Tighten the screw rod of the oil drain port, slowly inject the low viscosity lubricating oil (Kunlun CF-4-15W-40) into the lubricating oil box with a funnel. At the same time, observe whether it is satisfied through the scale of the lubricating oil dipstick. The lubricating oil can only be injected to the middle scale. The replaced lubricating oil should be stored in a barrel. If the original lubricating oil is dirty, it will no longer be used, but it is strictly prohibited to put waste lubricating oil on the ground at will.


Water discharge of silent diesel generator set: check the water float in the water tank to confirm whether the water tank is completely discharged. The silent diesel generator set used in the gas station adopts the principle of water circulation to cool down the engine body system. To prevent the engine body of the silent diesel generator set from being damaged or blocked by ice in winter due to the freezing of water, the engine body of the silent diesel generator set will be scrapped or the cylinder will swell, Keep the body free of water under shutdown condition.


Note: The diesel generator shall not be drained too early before flameout. It shall run at idle speed until the cooling water temperature drops below 60 ℃ and the water is not hot. If the water is drained too early, the sudden cold air attack at a high temperature will cause sudden shrinkage, which is easy to lead to cracks in the body. When draining water, the water stored in the body should be completely drained to prevent it from freezing and expanding, causing the body to expand.


Maintenance of fireproof cap:


Due to the dry weather in winter, in order to prevent the smoke of silent diesel generator set from igniting the surrounding combustibles or combustibles, check the fire cap switch and keep the fire cap closed daily.


Electrical use:


The output power of the quiet genset is generally about 10KWA. Considering the performance impact of the generator set and the instability of the power generation, when using the generator set, only the production and zero pipe system computers will be used. Do not turn on the use of high-power electrical equipment such as gas station air conditioners and water pumps to avoid equipment burning or generator set damage due to excessive load.


Starlight Power was founded in 1974 and is one of the earliest manufacturers of generators and diesel generator sets in China. If you want get more information, please feel free to send email to sales@dieselgeneratortech.com we will pay highly attention on your question.
