Reasons for Problems in The Fuel Tank of Diesel Generator Sets

Nov. 01, 2023

As an essential auxiliary equipment for diesel generator sets, the daily fuel tank of diesel generator sets is often overlooked due to its relatively simple technology, which not only poses safety hazards but also affects the normal use of the set to a certain extent. The diesel generator set manufacturer has found in our actual work that there are some hidden dangers in the production and installation of many fuel tanks, which can be summarized as follows:

1. The functional design of the fuel tank is incomplete, such as not setting up an oil overflow port or a drain valve;


2. The oil tank has not undergone anti-corrosion and rust prevention treatment, and after a period of time, the corrosion is severe;


3. The fuel tank capacity indicator is not clear enough;


4. The matching valves are not standardized, and many are replaced by water heating devices, resulting in unsatisfactory results;


5. Unreasonable design capacity, etc.


Next, Dingbo Power Generation Equipment will introduce a relatively good fuel tank, and its main features will be briefly introduced as follows:


1. The inner and outer surfaces of the fuel tank are treated with anti-corrosion treatment, improving the level of anti-seepage and leakage prevention.


2. The functional design of the fuel tank is complete, with reasonable design of oil spill ports, respirators, oil inlet filters, and normally closed fuel tank cleaning ports.


3. Unlike the glass tube and rubber tube oil level gauges used in other fuel tanks, the UPT series fuel tanks use an indirect magnetic levitation column oil level gauge. Due to the isolation of the display part from the oil, the display is clear and will not turn black no matter how long it lasts. Additionally, sensors can be installed according to customer requirements for centralized monitoring.


4. All valve connections of this series of oil tanks are made of pressure and corrosion resistant connectors.


5. The connection between the oil tank and the unit is made of thick walled copper pipes, with beautiful and reasonable wiring, completely eliminating leakage.
