Does the oil filter of the diesel generator set have to be replaced regularly?

Oil is an essential part to ensure the normal operation of diesel generator sets. It is often compared to the "blood" of diesel engines. Its importance is self-evident. When diesel generator sets have metal wear of parts, fuel dilution, and coolant dilution And so on, it will start to deteriorate the oil. The oil filter can effectively filter out harmful impurities and moisture in the fuel system, protect the normal operation of the diesel generator set, reduce wear, avoid blockage, and improve engine life. device for maintenance.

       Oil is an essential part to ensure the normal operation of diesel generator sets. It is often compared to the "blood" of diesel engines. Its importance is self-evident. When diesel generator sets have metal wear of parts, fuel dilution, and coolant dilution And so on, it will start to deteriorate the oil. The oil filter can effectively filter out harmful impurities and moisture in the fuel system, protect the normal operation of the diesel generator set, reduce wear, avoid blockage, and improve engine life.

 

       At present, many users fail to maintain and maintain the oil filter as required within the specified time, resulting in a great increase in the failure rate of diesel generator sets, and premature entry into the maintenance period, which affects the service life of the unit. Therefore, Dingbo Power reminds the majority of users The maintenance must be carried out according to the specified time. The following are the maintenance points of the oil filter of the diesel generator set:

       1. If the diesel generator set adopts a centrifugal oil filter, then special attention must be paid to the installation after disassembly and cleaning during maintenance;

       2. Check whether the oil filter of the diesel generator set is blocked or not. Rotate the reassembled rotor forcefully and then let go, and observe that the rotor can rotate freely for 2-3 circles and then stop, which is qualified;

       3. Install the fine filter on the car, start the engine, and run it for a few minutes at the rated speed. When the oil temperature reaches 70 °C, the flame is turned off. At this time, the rotor continues to rotate outside the casing, which can last for more than 1.5 minutes. Installation is qualified. If the above indicators are not met, the installation is unqualified and should be reassembled.

 

       Oil filter (filter element) replacement cycle:

       1. After the new diesel generator set works for the first time for 50 hours;

       2. The diesel generator set has been running for 50 hours after medium or major repair;

       3. Under normal circumstances, it is generally replaced once every 200 hours of work;
