Introducing Basic and Optional Configurations of Diesel Generator Sets
On this page
Diesel generator sets, as an important emergency and backup power equipment, are widely used in industries such as industrial, commercial, construction, transportation, and communication. Their standard configurations and optional configurations can be flexibly adjusted according to different usage requirements to ensure stability and reliability in various environments. Below is a detailed description of the standard and optional configurations of diesel generator sets.
Standard Configuration
The standard configuration of a diesel generator set includes the following key components, each of which provides basic and necessary functions for the generator set to ensure normal operation and reliability.
1. Diesel Engine
This is the power source of the generator set, usually a high-performance diesel engine is selected to ensure stable and efficient output. Diesel engines are known for their fuel economy and durability, suitable for long-term continuous operation.
2. Alternator
The alternator is connected to the diesel engine, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Industrial-grade generators are typically used, capable of providing stable power output to meet various industrial electricity needs.
3. Industrial Grade Silencer
The silencer is used to reduce the noise generated during the operation of the diesel engine, reducing the impact on the surrounding environment. Industrial-grade silencers can effectively reduce exhaust noise, ensuring low-noise operation of the generator set.
4. Radiator
The radiator is used to cool the diesel engine, preventing it from overheating during long-term operation. An efficient cooling system ensures normal operation of the generator set under various working conditions.
5. Four-Protection Controller
The four-protection controller provides four basic protection functions, including low oil pressure protection, high water temperature protection, overspeed protection, and low voltage protection. These protective measures ensure that the generator set can automatically shut down in abnormal conditions to prevent equipment damage.
6. Maintenance-Free Battery
The maintenance-free battery is used to start the diesel engine, providing reliable starting power and supplying power to the control system when needed. The maintenance-free design reduces daily maintenance requirements, ensuring the equipment is always available.
Optional Configurations
According to the usage environment and specific needs, diesel generator sets can be equipped with various configurations to enhance their adaptability and functionality.
1. ATS Dual Power Automatic Transfer Control Cabinet
The ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) dual power transfer control cabinet is an important device for automatic switching between the main power source and the emergency power source in the generator set. It mainly consists of an intelligent controller and a high-performance dual power automatic transfer switch, capable of quickly switching to the backup power source in case of a power grid outage, ensuring continuous power supply. Users can choose to operate in automatic or manual mode, and the panel displays real-time voltage, current, frequency, and power of both power sources. Through the control module, users can also set the priority of the main and backup power sources to achieve the best power supply strategy. The control cabinet is made of cold-rolled steel plate, with a surface treated by electrostatic spraying to ensure the durability and reliability of the equipment.
2. Generator Parallel Control Cabinet
The generator parallel control cabinet is used to parallel multiple generator sets to form a stable power grid system. The parallel cabinet is equipped with a synchronization control module, load distribution module, and automatic on-off switch, capable of automatically adjusting the load distribution of each generator set to achieve efficient power output. The main advantages of the parallel cabinet include: improving the reliability of the power supply system, as multiple sets in parallel can withstand greater load changes; distributing active and reactive loads, making the operation of the generator set more economical; the parallel cabinet can also flexibly adjust the number of sets according to the actual load, reducing unnecessary energy waste.
3. Generator Set Soundproof Enclosure
The low-noise generator set is designed with a fully enclosed box, excellent sealing, made of 2mm thick steel plate, which can effectively prevent rain, snow, and dust. The inside of the box is equipped with multi-layer PUR-type flame-retardant sound-absorbing materials, including high-frequency, medium-frequency, and low-frequency sound-absorbing cotton, to minimize various types of noise. In addition, the set is equipped with a high-efficiency resistive silencer, significantly reducing the noise at the exhaust port. The large-capacity base fuel tank design can support the set to run continuously for 8 hours, suitable for long-term use scenarios.
4. Generator Mobile Trailer
The generator mobile trailer provides great convenience for the mobility of the equipment. The trailer design focuses on low center of gravity and short braking distance to ensure safety during transportation. At the same time, the appearance design is aesthetically pleasing, in line with modern aesthetic standards. The trailer uses a steel plate spring suspension structure, with reasonable node design, high strength, and good rigidity, suitable for various complex terrains. The mobile power station is equipped with systems such as handbrake, air brake, and rear taillights, which comply with German road standards and are widely used in construction sites, highways, railway construction, and other temporary power use places.
5. Generator Set Rain Cover
The rain cover is a protective device designed for outdoor work, with a beautiful appearance, reasonable structure, and good sealing performance, which can effectively prevent rain, snow, and dust, ensuring the normal operation of the generator set in harsh environments. The rain cover adopts a fully enclosed box design, made of 2mm thick steel plate, with smooth internal ventilation to prevent the set from affecting operation due to overheating.
As a key backup power equipment, the standard configuration of the diesel generator set provides reliable basic functions, while the diversified optional configurations greatly enhance the adaptability and functionality of the equipment. According to specific application requirements and usage environments, the reasonable selection and configuration of these optional parts can significantly improve the performance of the generator set, ensuring its efficient and stable operation under various conditions. These configurations not only enhance the convenience and economy of the generator set but also ensure the equipment's long-term stable operation in harsh environments, providing users with a safer and more reliable power guarantee.
