Analysis of the problem of starting battery charging of generator set

Have you paid attention to the startup battery section when using a generator set ? How should it be charged and how to carry out normal maintenance? Next, let experienced generator set manufacturer Haixing Power analyze this operation for you in detail.

The correct charging method is very important, it is a basic condition for ensuring the service life of the battery. It is recommended to use the original charger as it matches the configured battery. The supplementary current, charging voltage, conversion current, floating charging voltage, floating charging current, etc. are all determined in advance, and the parameters of other chargers may vary, resulting in disagreement with the charged battery, which not only affects the charging effect, but also affects the service life of the battery.

Let’s talk about the charging environment. It is very important to choose the right charging environment. The corresponding heat is often generated during the charging process, so it is recommended to choose an open and ventilated place when charging. It is strictly forbidden to cover the charger with external objects when charging, otherwise it will easily damage the charger and the battery, and even cause fire accidents. In addition, it is strictly forbidden to be soaked in water or rain.

Pay attention to the duration and frequency of charging time. When using a battery, you must develop the habit of charging frequently, ensure that the battery power remains full at all times. Never wait until the electricity is exhausted before charging, so as not to shorten the battery life due to 'deep discharge'. Also do not turn the battery upside down while charging. If sufficiently charged batteries are not used for a long time, they must be recharged once a month.

How to check whether the battery is charged normally, you can take the following method:

If there is a three-purpose power meter, after starting the engine, measure the voltage at the poles of the battery, which must exceed 13V to be considered normal. If you find that the charging voltage is too low, you need to ask a professional to inspect it. If there is no three-meter, visual measurement method can be used. The specific method is: after the engine is started, open the water cap of the battery to see if bubbles appear in each small grid. Normally, bubbles are constantly coming out, and the more you charge, the more you will get. If no bubbles appear, it may be that there is a problem with the charging system. Here is a special reminder, be careful not to smoke at the scene at this time. Because hydrogen will be produced during this inspection, smoking will lead to a risk of explosion and fire.
