An industrial diesel generator is an independent power generation device that uses diesel as fuel and generates electricity through an internal combustion engine driving a generator. It is mainly used in industrial, commercial, and infrastructure sectors as a primary power source, backup (emergency) power source, or mobile power source.
I. Characteristics of Industrial Diesel Generators
Industrial diesel generators have high power, high reliability, and fuel that is easy to store. They can start quickly and handle heavy loads. They are mainly used as backup power for critical facilities, as the main power source in remote areas, and for emergency engineering operations, making them important equipment for emergency and independent power supply.

III. Advantages of Industrial Diesel Generators
1. Industrial diesel generators provide strong power and a wide power range: Diesel engines have high torque and can cover a wide range of single-unit power, easily starting inductive loads such as motors, meeting the needs from small shops to large factories and data centers.
2. Industrial diesel generators operate stably and are highly reliable: Diesel engines use compression ignition technology, have a robust structure, low failure rates, can handle long-term continuous operation (such as serving as the main power source), and maintain stable output even in harsh environments.
3. Industrial diesel generators are fuel-efficient and have high thermal efficiency: Diesel has a high calorific value, and diesel engines generally have higher thermal efficiency than gasoline engines, resulting in lower overall operating costs during long-term operation or high-power output.
4. Strong load response and overload capacity: Able to withstand sudden large load increases in a short time (such as motor starting current), the voltage and frequency recover quickly, ensuring uninterrupted operation of critical equipment.
Daily Maintenance of Industrial Diesel Generators
IV. Daily or Pre- and Post-Operation Checks of Industrial Diesel Generators
1. Appearance Check: Inspect the industrial diesel generator for any oil or water leaks, loose parts, or damage.
2. Fuel System: Check the diesel fuel level to ensure it is sufficient; look for any leaks.
3. Cooling System: Check the coolant level (for closed water-cooled units) to ensure it is within the normal range.
4. Starting Battery: Inspect the industrial diesel generator battery terminals to ensure they are clean and securely connected; check the battery charge status.
5. Ventilation and Environment: Ensure that the generator room is well-ventilated and that the air intake and exhaust ports are not blocked.
V. Regular Weekly/Monthly Maintenance of Industrial Diesel Generators
1. Industrial Diesel Generator Oil Check:
- Check oil level: With the generator turned off and on a level surface, use a dipstick to check the oil level and add oil to the recommended range if necessary.
- Check oil quality: Observe the color and viscosity of the oil. If it is severely blackened, diluted, or contaminated, it should be replaced promptly.
2. Air Filter:
- Check the air filter indicator on the industrial diesel generator (if available) or visually inspect the filter element.
- Depending on the dust conditions in the environment, periodically blow out the filter with compressed air from the inside out (for paper filters). Replace immediately if heavily clogged. Never tap or wash with water.
3. Cooling System:
- Check the coolant concentration (for antifreeze and anti-rust properties) and cleanliness.
- Check the tension of the fan belt to ensure it is not too loose or too tight.
4. Remove Impurities from the Fuel System:
- Open the drain valve of the industrial diesel generator fuel filter or water separator to remove accumulated water and sediment.
5. Test Run:
- Under no-load or light-load conditions, start the industrial diesel generator and run for 15-30 minutes. This helps lubricate internal components, remove moisture, and check if operating parameters are normal.
VI. Deep Maintenance of Industrial Diesel Generators Every 250-500 Hours of Operation or Annually
1. Replace industrial diesel generator engine oil and oil filter: This is one of the most important maintenance tasks, and the specified grade and viscosity of oil must be used.
2. Replace fuel filter: Prevent impurities from damaging the fuel pump and injectors.
3. Replace industrial diesel generator air filter: If the environment is harsh, the replacement frequency should be increased.
4. Replace coolant: Depending on the type of coolant, it is usually replaced every 1-2 years or after a certain number of operating hours, and the cooling system should be cleaned.
5. Check and adjust industrial diesel generator valve clearance: Ensure engine intake and exhaust efficiency and maintain optimal performance.
6. Inspect and clean generator components:
Check whether the terminal connections are secure. Use dry compressed air to blow out internal dust from the industrial diesel generator. Measure the insulation resistance of the windings (requires professional personnel).
7. Check the industrial diesel generator starting system:
Clean battery terminals and apply petroleum jelly. Inspect the starter motor and alternator.
8. Load test: It is recommended to conduct a test at more than 50% of the rated load once a year, running for at least 1 hour to verify the Industrial Diesel Generator's load-bearing capacity, remove carbon deposits, and check the control system's performance. ...
VII. Maintenance for Long-Term Storage of Industrial Diesel Generators
If an industrial diesel generator will not be used for a long period, special maintenance is required:
1. Fill the fuel tank of the industrial diesel generator and add a fuel stabilizer, or drain the fuel system.
2. Change the engine oil.
3. Disconnect the negative terminal of the battery and charge the battery regularly.
4. Apply rust prevention measures and cover with a protective cover.
5. Perform a no-load test run at least once a month.
VIII. Q&A on Industrial Diesel Generators
1. What is an ATS for an industrial diesel generator?
It is a key device that automatically switches to generator power when the mains power is out, and switches back to mains and shuts down the generator when power is restored.
2. How is ventilation for an industrial diesel generator room calculated?
The intake area should be ≥1.5 times the radiator area, and the exhaust air volume must meet the gas consumption of combustion.
3. Why is it strictly prohibited to run an industrial diesel generator at low load for long periods?
It can easily cause insufficient cylinder temperature, incomplete combustion resulting in carbon deposits, oil degradation, piston ring sticking, and power reduction.
