Maintenance measures for outdoor generator sets after being exposed to rain

for outdoor useGenerator setRainy weather often happens. If protective measures are not taken,Generator setIt is easy to get caught in the rain. If it is not repaired and cared for in time, it will soon be rusted, corroded, and damaged. Appropriate maintenance methods can be selected according to the degree of rain exposure of the unit. Jiangsu Haixing Power Technology Co., Ltd. summarized the 'Maintenance Measures for Outdoor Generator Sets after Rain' to help customers solve problems.
1. Rinse the surface of the diesel engine with water to remove dirt and debris, and then use metal cleaner or washing powder to remove oil stains on the surface.
2. Support one end of the diesel engine so that the oil drain part of the oil pan is at the lowest position. Unscrew the oil drain plug and pull out the oil dipstick to allow the water in the oil pan to flow out on its own. When it reaches the point where the oil is about to be drained, the oil should be drained slightly. Let some of the oil and water drain out together and then tighten the oil drain plug.
3. Remove the air filter of the generator set, remove the filter upper shell, take out the filter element and other components, remove the water in the filter, and clean the parts with metal cleaner or diesel. The filter is made of plastic foam. It should be washed with washing powder or soapy water (gasoline is prohibited), then rinsed with clean water, dried, and then soaked in an appropriate amount of engine oil (squeeze it dry with your hands after soaking). When replacing a new filter, oil immersion must be carried out in the same way. The filter element is made of paper and needs to be replaced with a new one. After cleaning and drying all parts of the filter, install them according to regulations.
4. Remove the intake and exhaust pipes and muffler, and remove the internal water. Turn on the pressure reduction and crank the diesel engine to see if there is water discharged from the inlet and exhaust ports. If there is water discharged, continue to crank the crankshaft until all the water in the cylinder is discharged. Install the intake and exhaust pipes and mufflers, add a little engine oil to the air inlet, crank the crankshaft a few times, and then install the air filter. If it is difficult for the flywheel to rotate because the diesel engine has been flooded with water for a long time, it means that the cylinder liner and piston ring have been rusted. They should be disassembled and cleaned, and then assembled again. If they are severely rusted, they should be replaced in time.
5. Remove the fuel tank and drain out all the oil and water in it. Check whether there is water in the diesel filter and oil pipe. If there is water, drain it. Clean the fuel tank and diesel filter, then put them back in place, connect the oil line, and add clean diesel to the tank.
6. Drain the sewage in the water tank and water channels, clean the water channels, and add clean river water or boiled well water until the water float rises. Turn on the throttle switch and start the diesel engine. After starting the diesel engine, pay attention to the rise of the engine oil indicator and listen for any abnormal noises from the diesel engine. After checking whether all parts are normal, run the diesel engine in. The running sequence is first idle, then medium speed, and then high speed. The running time is 5 minutes each. After running in, stop the engine and drain the engine oil. Re-add new engine oil, start the diesel engine, and run it at medium speed for 5 minutes, then it can be used normally.
