As the weather warms up and temperatures rise, we have entered the peak electricity consumption period, which also coincides with the peak usage of Yuchai power generators in Guangxi. However, it is crucial to maintain the generators during the summer. Now, I'll share with you the precautions and maintenance methods for using power generator sets during the summer.
Before starting, check if the circulating cooling water in the water tank is sufficient; if not, add purified water to make up for it. This is because the heat generated by the Yuchai genset is dissipated through the water circulation.
After running continuously for 5 hours, the machine should be shut down for a half-hour break to rest, as the generator set operates in a high-speed compression state, and long-term high-temperature operation can damage the cylinder block.
Generators should not be operated in direct sunlight under high-temperature conditions to prevent overheating and potential malfunctions.
4. As temperatures rise, ensure that the generator's normal ventilation and cooling are not compromised. Dust and debris in the ventilation ducts should be cleaned regularly to maintain clear passage. The generator set should not operate in direct sunlight or high-temperature environments to prevent malfunctions caused by excessive temperature rise.
5. As summer is fast approaching and thunderstorms are more frequent during this season, Yuanchi Power Generation has taken proactive lightning protection measures at their site in Guangxi. All machinery and equipment as well as construction projects are in compliance with lightning protection grounding regulations. The generator sets are equipped with protective and grounding systems.
