Tips for distinguishing genuine and fake generator oil

Generator setThe main purpose of engine oil is its lubrication function, and lubrication work is an important means to extend the life of the unit and improve efficiency. Therefore, it is crucial to choose lubricating oil with reliable quality. So, in real life, is there any way to identify the quality of engine oil and guard against inferior engine oil? Haixing believes that everyone can take the following measures.

First put the engine oil in a test tube and heat it to 110 to 120 degrees Celsius. If there is a 'crackling' sound in the oil, it means there is water in the engine oil. If there is water in the oil, use indirect heating to heat the oil to 110 to 120 degrees Celsius. When the bubbles in the oil disappear, cool to normal temperature and the water will be removed.

If you unfortunately suffer a loss and buy low-quality lubricating oil and there is no way to complain, we can use the above method to evaporate the water and continue to use it.

If the engine oil has been slightly emulsified, use the following method to deal with it: Collect emulsified engine oil of the same brand, add phenol (carbolic acid) with a weight of 1% to 3% of the oil weight as a demulsifier, stir and heat to 50 to 80 degrees Celsius, and let it stand for 4 hours or longer. After the oil and water are separated into layers, remove the water in the lower layer and make it ready for use.

When choosing engine oil, it is still recommended that you read more about Dobi and use tips to identify the authenticity of the engine oil to prevent being cheated. Do not blindly pursue low prices. Only good engine oil paired with a good generator set can truly bring value to the enterprise.
