What are the anti-freezing methods of MTU diesel generator sets

In cold weather, the engine is difficult to start. If cold water is added before starting, it is easy to freeze in the process of adding water or when the water is not started in time after adding water, it is easy to freeze in the water tank and the water inlet pipe, causing the water to be unable to circulate, and even make the water tank swell and crack. Adding hot water, on the one hand, can improve the temperature of the engine to facilitate starting; On the other hand, the above freezing phenomenon can be avoided as far as possible.

The antifreeze should be of high quality

At present, the quality of antifreeze on the market is uneven, many are shoddy. If there is no preservative in the antifreeze, it will seriously corrode the engine cylinder head, water jacket, radiator, water ring, rubber parts and other components, and produce a lot of scale, so that the engine heat dissipation is poor, resulting in engine overheating failure. Therefore, we must choose the products of regular manufacturers.

Replenish soft water timely

After the tank is filled with antifreeze, if it is found that the water level of the tank is reduced, on the premise of ensuring no leakage, just add clean soft water (distilled water is better), because the general use of ethylene glycol antifreeze boiling point is high, evaporation is the water in the antifreeze, do not need to add antifreeze and only add soft water can be. It is worth mentioning that: do not add hard water without softening.

Discharge antifreeze in time to reduce corrosion

Whether it is ordinary antifreeze or long-term antifreeze, when the temperature becomes higher, it should be released in time, so as to prevent the corrosion of the parts. Because in antifreeze added preservatives can longer duration of use and gradually reduce or failure, what is more, some simply did not add preservatives, it would have a very strong corroding effect on parts, so must be released in a timely manner according to the temperature situation, antifreeze, and after the release of antifreeze cooling line conducting a thorough cleaning.

Change the water and clean the pipes regularly

Frequently in cooling water is not recommended because of cooling water in over a period of time after use, minerals have precipitation, unless the water is very dirty, may stop line and radiator, don’t easily replaced, because even if the new change of cooling water softening treatment, but also contains a certain minerals, these minerals can deposit on the place such as water jacket and form scale, water change much more frequently, The more minerals precipitated, the thicker the scale, so the cooling water should be replaced regularly according to the actual situation. During replacement, the cooling line should be cleaned. The cleaning solution can be prepared with caustic soda, kerosene and water. At the same time, maintain the water switch, especially before winter, replace the damaged switch in time, can not be replaced by bolts, sticks, rags, etc.
