1. Coolant and Antifreeze: Ensure that the coolant has appropriate antifreeze capacity to prevent freezing and engine damage. Regularly check the concentration of coolant and prohibit the use of untreated water as engine coolant.
2. Engine oil and fuel: Low temperatures in winter can reduce the fluidity of engine oil and fuel, so it is necessary to choose engine oil and fuel that are suitable for low-temperature environments. The engine oil should be selected with a lower viscosity, and the fuel should be diesel with a lower pour point. The fuel tank should be cleaned regularly and the fuel filter should be replaced.
3. Battery management: Low temperatures can affect the performance of batteries, so it is necessary to regularly check the electrolyte level and voltage of the battery to ensure that it is fully charged and in good working condition.
4. Insulation measures: In cold weather, insulation covers or heaters can be used to maintain the temperature of the generator set and prevent frosting or freezing. In addition, body insulation is also very important, especially in northern regions, where insulation sleeves and curtains should be equipped with cold proof equipment.
5. Regular inspection and maintenance: Regularly inspect the engine, control panel, cooling system, and fuel system of the generator set to eliminate issues such as abnormal noise, vibration, oil leakage, or wire wear. Regularly replace the air filter, fuel filter, and oil filter to ensure the normal operation of the generator set.
6. Preheating before starting: Before starting the generator set, it should be run at low speed for 3-5 minutes to increase the overall temperature, check the working condition of the lubricating oil, and ensure that it is normal before putting it into normal operation.
Through the above maintenance measures, the reliability and efficiency of portable generators in winter can be ensured, and their service life can be extended.
