Not paying attention to the maintenance of backup
diesel generator sets can bring the following main hazards:
Performance degradation: Diesel generator sets that are not maintained for a long time will gradually lose their original performance due to wear, dust accumulation, oil stains, and other reasons. For example, blockage of the fuel injection system can lead to insufficient fuel combustion, which in turn affects power generation efficiency; The accumulation of scale in the cooling system will affect the heat dissipation effect, causing the unit to operate at high temperatures and reduce efficiency.
Increased failure rate: Components lacking lubrication and fastening are prone to wear and fracture due to friction, vibration, and other reasons, leading to mechanical failures. For example, the wear of key components such as crankshafts and connecting rods may lead to unstable operation of the unit, and even serious malfunctions. Meanwhile, aging electrical components and loose wiring terminals can easily cause electrical faults such as short circuits and open circuits, affecting the normal operation of the unit.
Increased safety hazards: The accumulation of oil stains and dirt, as well as short circuits in electrical components, can all lead to fires. Especially in high temperature and dry environments, this risk is more prominent. In addition, both mechanical and electrical failures may cause the unit to suddenly shut down or lose control, resulting in personal injury to operators.
Rising maintenance costs: Generator sets that have not been maintained for a long time often require major repairs to resume operation when they fail. This kind of major overhaul is not only expensive, but also time-consuming, which will affect the supply of electricity for production and daily life. Meanwhile, components with severe wear and tear require frequent replacement, increasing the cost of purchasing and replacing spare parts.
Shortening the lifespan of the generator set: Internal components of a generator set that is not maintained for a long time may fail prematurely due to wear, aging, and other reasons, thereby shortening the overall lifespan of the unit. This not only increases the operating costs of the enterprise, but may also affect its normal production and operation.
