Why Can't The Details of Diesel Generator Set Coolant Be Ignored

The function of diesel generator set coolant is to dissipate a large amount of heat generated during the operation of the unit, so as to ensure the normal use of the unit. How to use the coolant has become an important work that can not be ignored.

The function of diesel generator set coolant is to dissipate a large amount of heat generated during the operation of the unit, so as to ensure the normal use of the unit. So how to use the generator set coolant? What details do you need to pay attention to? This article is a brief introduction of Guangxi Dingbo Power Equipment Manufacturing Co., Ltd., a professional diesel generator manufacturer.

1.  Use clean soft water.

Soft water usually includes rain water, snow water and river water, which contains less minerals and is suitable for diesel engine. The mineral content of well water, spring water and tap water is high. These minerals are easy to deposit on the radiator wall, water jacket and water channel wall and form scale and rust when heated, which makes the heat dissipation capacity of the unit worse and leads to the overheating of the engine.The added water must be clean. Impurities in the water will block the water channel and aggravate the wear of pump impeller and other parts. If hard water is used, it must be softened in advance. The methods of softening usually include heating and adding caustic soda.

2. Do not start without cooling water.

Some users, because there is no water source or because the water source is far away, and the diesel generator set is in urgent need of use, often take the method of starting first and then adding water, this method is very harmful. After the dry start of diesel generator set, because there is no cooling water in the engine body, all parts of the engine rise rapidly, especially the temperature of the cylinder head and the water jacket outside the fuel injector of the diesel engine is particularly high. If the cooling water is added at this time, the cylinder head and water jacket are easy to crack or deform due to sudden cooling.

3. Do not drain the diesel generator set at high temperature.

When the diesel generator runs for a long time and the temperature difference between the unit and the external environment is too large, the cooling water should be discharged 15-30 minutes after the shutdown and when the water temperature drops. It does not mean that the diesel generator will be discharged as soon as it is shut down. Otherwise, some parts of the diesel generator will be deformed due to the large temperature difference between the body and the external environment, So as to affect the performance of diesel engine.

4. Avoid scalding when boiling.

Don't open the water tank cover blindly after the radiator of diesel generator set "boils down" to prevent scalding. The correct way is to idle for a while, then turn off the generator, and then turn off the radiator cap when the temperature of the generator set decreases and the pressure of the water tank decreases. When unscrewing, cover the box cover with towel or cloth to prevent hot water and steam from spraying on the face and body.Don't look down on the water tank with your head facing. Remove your hands quickly after unscrewing it. When there is no heat or steam, remove the water tank cover to prevent scalding.
