To guarantee the operation of the diesel generator, its installation must be done according to the manufacturer’s standard installation instructions. For proper safety, it should be considered during the installation, commissioning and operation of diesel generators. Decelerator devices may operate for extended periods of time. Clinics require maintenance with prior planning. All the devices that use the diesel generator device can have enough information about its work and safety.
Due to their high sensitivity and importance, the installation and commissioning of diesel generators should be done by experts; Contact us for consultation and installation services. Sepehr Sanat Sava Energy Company is ready to carry out all stages of consulting, sales, installation and commissioning of diesel generators.
Important points for safe and proper installation of diesel generator:
In order to install the device in an open or closed space, a proper ventilation system will be needed for air entry and exit; Because exhaust fumes and engine exhaust heat are dangerous for employees. Engine exhaust for all diesel generators installed indoors shall be vented to the outside through leak-free piping in accordance with applicable codes, standards, or other requirements.
Installing proper ventilation for the diesel generator first causes the release of toxic gases caused by the operation of the diesel generator. Second, it helps to optimize the cooling system of the diesel generator, in order to reduce the temperature of the diesel generator, which increases the lifespan of the diesel generator. Installing the diesel generator in humid environments or places with inappropriate temperature should be avoided; High temperature in the diesel generator room causes the device to shut down and repeating this problem damages the device.
When moving the diesel generator, do not use the hook connection to the engine handle or the lifting handle and use the special lifting points installed on the chassis under the device or the canopy. Ensure the proper condition of the crane or ancillary equipment and the proper capacity to support the weight of the diesel generator. Read all the codes, standards and other regulations and traffic laws to use the mobile diesel generator. Avoid riding on a mobile diesel generator. Do not allow employees to stand or ride on the tow bar. When placing the device, the proper distance between the device and the adjacent walls must be observed.
Using a good quality cable and calculating the cross section of the cable according to the output power of the device is an important factor in the safety of the device. Be sure to connect electrical connections and cables in accordance with electrical codes and relevant standards. This includes the requirements for connecting the device to the earth system. The exhaust piping must be done correctly and according to the instructions to remove the smoke produced due to the operation of the device. The engine of the diesel generator also uses two types of air cooling system and radiator system for cooling the engine, and the use of radiator cooling is more common than other diesel devices.
Changing the oil regularly and using the right quality oil is very important to increase the life of the device. Diesel powered generators use a direct fuel injection system, reducing the risk of direct fire. With regular maintenance of diesel generator devices, we ensure the correct functioning of the cut-off sensors or extinguishing, and the factors of fire due to any kind of leakage will be reduced.
Diesel generator safety instructions
Diesel generators are designed to be completely safe to operate.
All people should have enough knowledge and information about how it works and its safety so that they don’t get hurt during its use.
Important things to pay attention to when using a diesel generator:
Not paying attention to safety tips before filling the fuel tank is one of the most common causes of diesel generator fires. When filling fuel, consider the slope of the device.
Do not place your diesel engine next to flammable items.
The parts of the device get damaged over time, so you should check it every once in a while.
Check all the parts of the machine once in a while.
Keep the terminals tight and clean or replace them. Terminals usually rot over time and are destroyed.
Clean or replace the air filter of the diesel generator once in a while and make sure that the air filter of the diesel generator consumes clean air.
Do not open the radiator door when the device is hot and on.
Do not touch the electrical cables of the device without gloves and special insulation.
If the cables are dry or cracked, replace them.
Be careful not to spill fuel on the body of the device.
Lubricate the diesel generator accurately.
Check the coolant level. Failure of the cooling system increases the temperature of the device.
Use protective and special covers such as gloves, hats and shoes.
Do not smoke near the fuel tank. Next to the fuel tank there are various gases that the smallest spark can cause a fire.
Check all connections related to the fuel system frequently.
Use ABC and BC fire extinguishers to extinguish the fire.
Close the door or the lid of the device before turning on the device.
Reduce diesel generator noise
One of the reasons why everyone has doubts and regrets before buying a diesel generator is its high noise. Just as all industrial devices produce noise, diesel generators produce a lot of noise during operation.
Diesel generators are often used to generate electricity in commercial, welfare, and recreational places. In most cases, by using covers such as a canopy or a metal chamber, they reduce this sound to the minimum possible level.
Canopy reduces the output sound by 80 to 70 decibels (DB).
The intensity and volume of diesel generator sound is measured based on the decibel unit.
The normal sound of diesel generator is between 35 and 55 dB.
More sound than 55 decibels causes hearing disorders and ear damage.
Often there are problems with the generator, whose sound reaches 75 to 85 decibels, which is very dangerous.
