1. Regular inspection and maintenance: Even if the diesel generator is not used for a long time, regular inspection is still essential. Ensure that all components of the generator set are free from rust, corrosion, or other damage, and that the quality of the engine oil, coolant, and fuel remains good.
2. Cleaning and rust prevention treatment: Regularly clean the surface and internal components of the generator set to remove dust, dirt, and other impurities. Use a soft brush or compressed air for cleaning to avoid damaging the machine. At the same time, rust prevention treatment should be applied to exposed metal components to prevent rusting and corrosion.
3. Lubricating components: Even if the equipment is not in use, it is necessary to ensure that all components of the generator set are properly lubricated to prevent rusting or damage due to long-term disuse.
4. Start the engine: Regularly start the diesel generator set and let it run for a period of time to ensure that all components work properly and maintain the reliability of the engine. This also helps to evenly distribute the lubricating oil.
5. Keep it dry: Try to keep the storage environment of the generator set as dry as possible, avoid humid and high-temperature environments, to reduce the risk of equipment moisture and corrosion.
6. Check the battery: Regularly check the condition of the battery to ensure that it does not start in low temperature environments and to avoid starting the unit at low temperatures. Regularly maintain the charging system to ensure its proper functioning.
7. Fuel and component replacement: Diesel generator sets that have not been used for a long time should have their fuel replaced in a timely manner to prevent fuel deterioration from causing difficulty in starting or engine failure. Regularly replace vulnerable components such as air filters, oil filters, spark plugs, etc., to maintain the good condition and performance of the diesel generator set.
By using the above maintenance methods, the service life of diesel generator sets can be effectively extended, ensuring that the equipment can operate normally after long-term disuse.
