What Are The Components of Diesel Generator Set?

A diesel generator set is a power equipment that uses a diesel engine as power to drive an AC synchronous generator and generate electricity. Diesel generator sets are widely used power generation equipment in the world, mainly used as emergency backup power sources for telecommunications, finance, national defense, hospitals, schools, commercial, industrial and mining enterprises, and residential buildings; Independent power sources for special purposes such as mobile communication, battlefield and field operations, vehicles, and ships; The independent main power supply required for production and production in areas where the large power grid cannot deliver power or where it is not suitable to establish thermal power plants.

With the continuous development of science and technology and the application of new technologies and achievements, diesel generator sets are gradually moving from manual starting and manned ordinary units to automation (self starting unmanned, remote control, remote signaling, remote sensing), low emissions, and low noise directions to meet the higher requirements of modern society for diesel generator sets.

What are the components of a diesel generator set? A diesel generator set is a type of internal combustion generator set, consisting of a diesel engine, an AC synchronous generator, a control box (screen) coupling, and a common base.

Generally, the complete set of production units uses a common base to install the main components such as the diesel engine, AC synchronous generator, and control box (screen) into a whole, that is, an integrated diesel generator set. The high-power engine, diesel engine, and generator device need to be designed separately for equipment such as the support screen, fuel tank, and water tank outside the common base welded with steel sections, to facilitate movement and installation.

The flywheel housing of the diesel engine is directly connected to the front end cover of the generator through a shoulder positioning in the axial direction, and a cylindrical elastic coupling is used to drive the generator to rotate directly by the flywheel. This connection method is fixed together by screws, so that the two are connected as a whole, ensuring that the concentricity between the crankshaft of the diesel engine and the rotor of the generator is within the specified range.

In order to reduce noise, the unit generally needs to install a dedicated muffler. In special cases, the unit needs to be fully shielded. In order to reduce the vibration of the unit, shock absorbers or rubber alkali vibration pads are installed at the connection between the main components such as the diesel engine, generator, control box, and wooden box and the/k common bottom bear. Some control boxes also adopt secondary vibration reduction measures.
