Diesel generators — used for primary or backup (first aid) power supply — must be maintained regularly to ensure that they provide high quality power throughout their service life. Most large companies that own multiple generators, or those that rely on generators for extensive use as prime power, may require an in-house engineer to maintain the generators. Smaller companies, or customers’ own generators that provide backup power in the event of a power outage, can establish maintenance contracts with generator dealers or electrical contractors to keep the generator units up and running. In either case, the life cycle of a generator set is built on good maintenance and record-keeping, and routine maintenance is fairly simple. Generator set leasing manufacturer Yatong Xiaobian will provide you with the best maintenance plan.
Over time, in order to ensure the long-term functioning of the generator, we need to know the necessary knowledge to predict that certain components will be damaged or require maintenance services. A fairly reliable maintenance plan, usually available from the generator manufacturer, can be obtained with considerable experience from the local generator or other electrical contractors and engineers. Adherence to an excellent maintenance plan will ensure the normal use and correct operation of the generator. Large generator manufacturers have established a maintenance plan, which can not only carry out the maintenance of their own brand, but also carry out the maintenance of other brands.
The main responsibilities of the maintenance personnel are to inspect the system, study the technical data provided by the manufacturer, maintain records, and take safety precautions recommended by the manufacturer.
Some steps to perform regular maintenance to ensure generator operation include:
Remove worn parts or upgrade components in a timely manner
Check lubricating oil level
Battery check and clean connections
Unit load test
Verify control panel readings and indicators
Change fuel and air filters
A small investment in replacement parts and regular generator maintenance can save on costly and unnecessary upgrades or replacement of an entire generator set in the future. When performing routine maintenance, each action should be recorded, and reading materials and various parameters should be recorded along with the generator inspection and meter reading date. The data collected will serve as a comparison. Any incorrect changes indicate that the unit is likely to be damaged or will be damaged. Preventive maintenance ensures you get all the uninterruptible power you need. This requires the enterprise to sign a regular maintenance contract with the generator manufacturer, so that we can get better service from the manufacturer in case of emergency, and preventive maintenance can effectively reduce the failure and damage rate of the generator in the process of use.
