Components of diesel generator

What is a diesel generator and how the most important components work?

Diesel generator parts are produced in different companies and then are coupled by the same companies or intermediary companies and are provided to the people.< /span>

☑️ The most important parts of diesel generator

☑️ Engine (Diesel Engine):

The most important part of a diesel generator is its engine. The more powerful the engine is, the more powerful the alternator is needed to generate electricity. The diesel engine, which is a vital part of the diesel generator, plays a very important role compared to other parts, which we have discussed completely in the article on how the diesel generator works. The operation of diesel engine combustion is summarized in four operations: breathing, compression, explosion and exhaust. A four-stroke engine has more power than a two-stroke type.

☑️ Alternator (alternator)

What is the function of the alternator in a diesel generator? Alternator is one of the main parts of diesel generator and without this part, the device cannot produce electricity. The correct and scientific name of this part is alternator, which is mistakenly called generator among the general public. Inside this part, there are coils that use the magnetic field to convert the power from the motor into electrical output.

☑️ Fuel System (Fuel System)

Diesel generator fueling system It includes fuel tank, fuel tank pipe, diesel fuel filter, fuel drain, fuel pump and fuel injector. First, diesel enters the pump through a pipe and is injected into the cylinder through an injector.

☑️ Motor Start (Start)

The motor starter, which is clear from its name, is responsible for turning on the device. . The starter turns the flywheel of the engine with its gear and starts the engine.

☑️ Voltage regulator (AVR)

The voltage regulator is responsible for controlling the output voltage of the generator.

☑️ Cooling System (Cooling System)

The cooling system in most Diesel generators are water cooled. This system regulates the engine temperature and prevents it from overheating. In fact, the main killer of the engine performance is excessive heat, which in the absence of an efficient cooling system, the engine will experience a drop in performance.

☑️ Exhaust System (Exhaust System)

The exhaust system is actually part It is the one that helps to release the produced gases inside the cylinder during the engine combustion process. This system discharges toxic gases for breathing and subsequent combustion. These toxic gases are released through the exhaust manifold.

☑️ Control panel (Control Panel)

Control panel It is one of the inseparable components of a diesel generator and by using it, you can find out the problems of the device and monitor the alarms and errors of the device. The control panel is responsible for displaying water temperature, output voltage and frequency, fuel amount, oil pressure and many other things. By displaying this important information, it informs the user of the existence of any problem so that the necessary measures can be taken to solve it.

☑️ Turbocharge (TurboCharge)

How far above sea level We move away, the concentration of oxygen in the air decreases. If the engine in question is used in areas where there is not enough oxygen, the air pressure drop will cause the engine to malfunction. By equipping the device with a turbocharger breathing system, it is possible to compensate for the lack of oxygen pressure and increase the power of the engine.

☑️ Battery Charger (Charger)

An electronic circuit battery charger is placed inside the control panel. When the device starts working, the diesel generator battery charges the engine so that there is no problem when the device starts again.
