When Should the Oil of Diesel Generator Set Be Replaced

The wide application of diesel generator set as backup power supply is the symbol of the development and application of the electric power market and the gradual maturity of the generator set market.  For the current society, the diesel generator set is a very common power equipment, especially in the power failure, the normal use of all kinds of equipment is very rare.  However, users who have used mechanical equipment know that it is not difficult to buy equipment, but it is difficult to maintain equipment. If we do not pay attention to the maintenance of diesel generator set in the daily operation process, then the cost is not only the cost of buying diesel generator set.  

Next, please look at the diesel generator oil with Dingbo powerunder what circumstances to replace?  Don't overdo it before you regret it  

1, after installation and diesel generator set run-in period  

Many diesel generators do not contain any oil when shipped.  In order to mitigate any losses incurred during transportation.  Please confirm whether the diesel generator set has oil when receiving.  This also determines whether you need to refuel after installing a diesel generator set.  Also, your diesel generator set will need an oil change shortly after it undergoes the run-in process.  During run-in, unwanted particles (e.g. debris) are likely to enter the diesel generator set system and negatively affect the oil flow of the diesel generator set.  Therefore, after running in, oil change can be used as preventive maintenance to avoid production line problems.  

2. After major failure  

Many problems associated with diesel generator set failures are caused by oil system failures.  The diesel generator motor may not perform at its best due to oil contamination, and you may experience power spikes or other disruptions.  Therefore, if you experience any type of failure, be sure to test the oil and investigate if it is "dirty" or contaminated (e.g. full of debris).  Also, check the filter on the diesel generator set to see if it filters the oil correctly.  

3. After a large number of leaks  

If the oil level in your diesel generator set is not within the scale line, it should be stopped in time.  If this happens, it could be a strong indicator that your diesel generator set has a serious leak.  Therefore, it is recommended that you fix the leak as soon as possible.  

It is also important to change the oil after repairing the leak.  This is done to ensure that no hazardous substances or contaminants enter the diesel generator set system and to flush the diesel generator set before continuing operation.  

4. After a large number of diesel generator sets are used  

The oil in the diesel generator set should be replaced after a long time of use, which can effectively help the engine run smoothly and efficiently.  

5. When the manufacturer recommends an oil change  

If the diesel generator manufacturer recommends that you change the oil, it is important.  Often, oil change is easy and overlooked.  Therefore, manufacturers recommend that you change the oil regularly in order to prevent engine failure due to oil-related causes.  

It is recommended that you make an oil change plan and record it.  Manufacturers also recommend that pushing diesel generators beyond their designated limits also puts pressure on the oil system and should be avoided whenever possible.  

Actually an oil change this kind of situation is very rare in the diesel generator set, as a important part of the diesel generator set, engine once it appear problem, this could be caused by engine failure, so when the engine in the above several ways, we also want to check the oil change, don't wait to be overhaul, to regret.
