Precautions During The Running-in Period of The New Generator Set

Aug. 03, 2023

Analyze this problem for the matters that need to be paid attention to during the running-in period of the newly purchased generator set. Before purchasing the generator set, it must be run-in. That is, the process of contact, friction and occlusion of the components of the unit. Only after running-in can the performance of the generator set be greatly improved. Just like when we buy a pair of shoes, we feel uncomfortable when we first put them on, but they feel very comfortable after wearing them for a while. This is the so-called break-in period.

The newly purchased generator set must be run-in for 60 hours before it can be put into full-load operation. In this way, the working conditions of the moving parts of the generator set can be improved, and the operational reliability and service life of the generator set can be improved. The running-in plan of the generator set should be considered according to the different uses of the generator set and the way of towing. In principle, as the running-in time increases, the speed and load of the generator set should be gradually increased in stages. During the whole running-in period, the load of the diesel engine should be 50-80% of the rated power of 12h, and the speed should not be greater than 80% of the rated speed. However, in the initial stage of running-in, the running time should not be too long under idling or under-load conditions.


Whenever the cylinder liner, piston, piston ring, connecting rod bearing bush and crank crank of the diesel generator are replaced, short-term running-in should also be carried out according to the above running-in conditions. During the running-in period, attention should also be paid not to make the diesel engine run for a long time under the idling condition.


When assembling fuel into the generator, be sure to ensure that the oil, water, gas and body are clean. If the diesel and gasoline are not pure, the precise matching parts will be worn, and the matching gap will increase, resulting in oil leakage and dripping. , The power supply pressure decreases, the gap becomes larger, and even causes serious faults such as oil circuit blockage, bearing bearing burning tile, etc. If there is a lot of dust in the air, it will accelerate the wear of the cylinder liner, piston and piston ring. The scale of the system increases, which hinders the heat dissipation of the engine, deteriorates the lubrication conditions, and severely wears the parts. If the surface of the parts is not clean, the surface of the body will be corroded and the service life will be shortened.


Pay attention to check and adjust the valve clearance, valve phase, fuel supply advance angle, fuel injection nozzle and ignition timing of the diesel engine to ensure that the engine is always in a good technical state, so as to save fuel and prolong the service life. It should always be maintained during use. To operate in a good technical state, it is necessary to observe, inspect frequently, find faults, and eliminate them in time.


When using the generator set, it is necessary not only to keep it clean, but also to have enough oil, water and air. If the fuel and air supply is not timely or interrupted, there will be problems such as difficulty in starting, poor combustion, power drop, and the engine cannot run normally. It will lead to poor engine lubrication, serious wear of parts and even burning of tiles. If the cooling water is insufficient, the temperature of the engine will be too high, the power will drop, the wear will be aggravated, and the service life will be shortened. The above are the precautions for the running-in and use of the generator set introduced to you, I hope it will be helpful to the users who newly purchase the generator set.
