Why Should Diesel Generator Set Use AC Load Box for Load Testing

In testing the power, frequency, current, voltage and other parameters of the generator, the load box is the most ideal detection equipment. Generally speaking, the fuel used in generators is diesel. When diesel is under 50% load or idle for a long time, it can cause insufficient fuel, carbon deposition, low overall efficiency, and ultimately lead to pneumatic difficulties, insufficient power, increased fuel consumption, and premature cylinder maintenance, resulting in scrapping. However, load boxes are ideal pseudo load products for diesel generators. What is the role of AC load boxes? Next, let Dingbo Power introduce the function of AC load box for you.

The function of AC load box

1. Detect the generator set

The load box can detect the load power of the diesel generator set, conduct full load test, unbalanced load achievement test, sudden power drop test, steady voltage regulation rate, steady frequency regulation rate, transient voltage regulation frequency, voltage recovery time, transient frequency regulation rate, frequency recovery time, and continuous operation detection of the diesel generator set.

When the genset is in production, it can be debugged and factory load tested; For newly installed gensets, it can be checked whether the power meets the standard during engineering acceptance; After the genset is subjected to noise reduction and noise reduction treatment, it can be verified whether the output power is affected; When the genset has been installed for more than one year or after maintenance, the actual load achievement test can be carried out; The load can also perform regular on-load maintenance on the unit to eliminate carbon deposition, timely detect aging components, and eliminate faults and hidden dangers.

2. Detect UPS

The testing items for UPS include: on-load power testing, full load testing, AC discharge testing, output voltage imbalance, output voltage stabilization accuracy, overload capacity, dynamic voltage transient range, mains battery switching time, backup time, and bypass inverter switching time.

3. Testing the battery pack

It has three functions: detecting the voltage of individual and entire battery packs, constant current discharge, and online monitoring. It can detect the voltage, total voltage, current, and other parameters of each individual battery while maintaining constant current discharge. Process the data information collected from discharge through supporting data processing software to generate a residual capacity analysis report. Instruments for daily maintenance, capacity testing, regular deep discharge, and engineering acceptance of battery packs for communication operators, power plants, and power plants.

Load testing is necessary to prevent problems that may lead to slow or loss of functions of the diesel generator set. Through the generator load testing, users can roughly understand the status of the diesel generating set. If problems are found, they can be dealt with in time to restore the genset to its proper technical state. I hope the above content is helpful to you.
