The air filter of the generator set plays an important role in the generator set. The air filter is responsible for blocking the entry of dust, sand, and other impurities from the outside into the engine, which can cause wear and corrosion to the internal parts of the engine, thereby shortening the engine's service life.
The maintenance of the air filter for diesel generator sets mainly includes the following aspects:
1. Daily inspection: If a large amount of dust and impurities are found on the surface of the filter, they need to be cleaned in a timely manner.
2. Cleaning and replacement:
When cleaning, you can use a soft brush to gently remove dust from the surface, or blow with compressed air. But please note that do not use water to clean the filter screen, as moisture can affect the filtration effect. In addition, pay attention to the sealing of the filter to ensure that there is no air leakage.
For oil bath air filters, clean the filter element with clean diesel and replace the engine oil every 100-200 hours of operation. If the filter element is broken, it should be replaced immediately, and attention should be paid to adding engine oil according to regulations during use.
3. Installation precautions: When installing the air filter, special attention should be paid not to miss, reverse or incorrectly install the sealing gaskets and rubber connecting pipes, and ensure the tightness of each fitting to ensure its normal operation.
4. Recording and monitoring: During the maintenance process, corresponding records should be kept, such as cleaning time, replacement time, etc., in order to query and monitor the usage status of the air filter in the future.
By regularly maintaining the air filter of the generator set, it can ensure its normal operation, prolong the use time of the generator set, and improve work efficiency. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to using engine oil and diesel that meet the requirements to ensure the normal operation of the entire system.
