How to Maintain the Fuel System of Diesel Generator Set

The fuel system of the diesel generator set is the heart of the diesel engine, and the installation of the fuel system has an important impact on the performance of the fuel system. A reasonable installation is equivalent to adding insurance to the system, which can easily pass national laws and regulations, and there is no potential safety hazard. The fuel injection system of a diesel engine generally consists of three parts: a high-pressure fuel system, a low-pressure fuel system, and a speed control system. 1. The main components of the low-pressure oil circuit system include oil tank, fuel filter, hand pump, oil transfer pump, low-pressure oil circuit pipe, return pipe, oil-water separator, etc. 2. The high-pressure fuel system is mainly composed of high-pressure fuel injection pump assembly, high-pressure fuel pipe, fuel injector assembly, and other components. 3. The speed control system mainly consists of mechanical speed regulators and electronic speed regulators. The speed control of electronically controlled diesel engines is controlled by the electronic control unit, and there is no longer a dedicated speed control device.

In order to better use diesel for power generation, maintaining the fuel system of diesel generator is a link of reuse. The following are the steps to maintain the fuel system of the generator. We hope the following content can be helpful to users.

1. Before or during the operation of the generator, all valves in the fuel return pipeline must be opened to avoid high fuel pressure.

2. Check the connections of the generator fuel pipeline for looseness and leakage.

3. Ensure that fuel is supplied to the generator.

4. If the generator has not been started for several weeks, fuel may have leaked from the fuel system, so it is important to use a manual priming pump to prime the engine before starting.

5. Drain the water from the oil-water separator every week and fill the fuel tank with fuel; Check if the fuel pressure is normal after starting the generator.

6. Check if the fuel pressure is normal after starting the generator; Fill the fuel tank with fuel after the generator stops running.

7. The generator releases water and sediment from the fuel tank every 250 hours.

8. Replace the diesel fine filter every 250 hours for the generator.

The above is the composition of the fuel system of the diesel generator set and the steps to maintain the fuel system introduced by Dingbo Power.
