On some turbocharged models, to further enhance their low-temperature starting performance, an intake preheating device is also installed on the intake pipe of the diesel generator set. When starting at low temperatures, it should be used correctly.
After the diesel generator set is started, it is necessary to wait until the oil pressure rises before accelerating; otherwise, it is easy to cause the bearing of the turbocharger to burn out. Especially when diesel generator sets need to change lubricating oil, clean turbochargers, filters or replace filter elements, or have been idle for more than a week, after starting, in the idling state, loosen the oil inlet on the turbocharger a little. After lubricating oil overflows, tighten it and idler for a few more minutes before adding load.
3. Diesel generator sets should avoid idling for long periods of time; otherwise, it is easy for the engine oil in the turbocharger to leak into the compressor, causing the exhaust pipe to spray engine oil.
4. For new diesel generator sets or after replacing the turbocharger, the oil inlet pipe joint on the turbocharger must be removed and 50-60ml of engine oil must be added to prevent the turbocharger bearing from burning out due to lack of oil during startup.
5. Before shutting down the diesel generator set, it must idle for 2 to 3 minutes. Under normal circumstances, sudden shutdown is not allowed to prevent the turbocharger bearings from seizing due to overheating.
6. It is necessary to frequently listen for any rubbing sounds between the turbocharger impeller and the casing during the moment when the diesel generator set stops. If there are rubbing sounds, the turbocharger should be disassembled immediately to check if the bearing clearance is normal.
7. It is essential to maintain the sealing of the intake and exhaust pipes of the turbocharged diesel generator set; otherwise, it will affect the performance of the diesel generator set. It is necessary to frequently check whether the fastening nuts or bolts are loose and whether the hose clamps are tight. If necessary, replace the sealing gaskets.
