How to Use the Fuel Tank Properly

Diesel fuel tank is one of the composition of diesel generator set (fuel system) a significant elements of various types of diesel generating set there will always be the matching standard diesel fuel tank and oil selection, the processing technology of the diesel fuel tank type many, many, according to relevant provisions customers processing into a variety of discrete diesel fuel tank capacity. Take a closer look at it with Dingbo Power.  

How long will your generator diesel tank last? How to use the fuel tank properly ?

1,diesel fuel tank, the lowest point can not be less than the diesel engine inlet high 0.8m.  

2, Diesel fuel tank should be installed and used in a reliable area around the diesel generator set.  Its capacity should be able to maintain the diesel generator set operating at full load for 6-8 hours.  

3. When the diesel generator set is in an emergency situation, in order to prevent exhaust gas from entering the fuel channel, it should be reasonable and effective to ensure that the lowest oil level of the diesel fuel tank is high and the inlet of the fuel oil pump is 150mm.  Exhaust gas into the fuel passage is the necessary cause of abnormal operation system of diesel generator set .

4, If the diesel oil tank is installed and used in a way that is 456mm higher than the main tank, or beyond 60m, a oil pump must be installed and used between the diesel oil tank and the main tank.  

5, if you choose to make your own fuel tank, you must choose stainless steel material or steel plate, not in the diesel oil tank internal structure spray paint or hot dip galvanizing, because spray paint or hot dip galvanizing will form a chemical reaction with diesel oil, destroy the quality of diesel oil, interfere with diesel combustion factors.  

6. It is recommended to install and use the selective oil float button in the diesel fuel tank to check the oil level. Install and use the selected oil level sensor in the diesel fuel tank connected to a dry contact in the monitoring panel.  

7. The fuel capacity in the diesel tank is supposed to ensure regular supply and demand every day.  

8. Diesel fuel tank should have exhaust gas outlet.  

Above is what we should pay special attention to selected on diesel generator set diesel fuel tank, diesel fuel tank is a major part of the diesel generator set, is extremely necessary to a component, as long as the diesel generating sets all of a sudden failure prompted devices cannot always conventional choice, is usually due to our neglect maintenance and nursing problem in the process of selection,  Do not pay attention to the choice of diesel fuel tank, so the choice of diesel generator set should also pay attention to the preparation of diesel fuel tank maintenance and care.
