Diesel generator users often hold a misconception that smaller is better for diesel generators, unaware that this is a serious misconception. Operating diesel generators at low loads for extended periods can lead to the following hazards, which the company lists as follows:

1. Piston: If the load is too low, the cylinder seal of the piston is not properly sealed, causing engine oil to leak and enter the combustion chamber, where it burns. This results in the exhaust pipe emitting blue smoke, polluting the air.

2. For turbocharged diesel generator sets, due to low load and no-load conditions, the turbocharger pressure is low. This can easily lead to a decrease in the sealing effect of the turbocharger oil seal (non-contact type), causing engine oil to leak into the turbocharger chamber and enter the cylinder along with the intake air.

Some of the oil that rises into the cylinder participates in combustion, while a portion cannot be fully combusted, leading to carbon deposits forming on the valves, intake ports, piston tops, and piston rings. Additionally, a portion is expelled through the exhaust. Consequently, the exhaust passage of the cylinder sleeve will gradually accumulate oil and form carbon deposits.

The oil in the supercharger's compression chamber accumulates to a certain level, at which point it begins to leak out through the joint surface of the supercharger.

5. Extended operation under low load can significantly exacerbate wear on moving parts and worsen the combustion environment in the engine, leading to the premature onset of major maintenance intervals.

Therefore, diesel generator set manufacturer Yifuan Power recommends minimizing the running time at low load or no load for both naturally aspirated and turbocharged models, and stipulates that the low load cannot be less than 25% to 30% of the rated power of the unit.

Long-term operation at full load for diesel generator sets not only enhances their performance and identifies potential safety hazards but also helps prevent major communication accidents.
