Due to the significant environmental differences between plateau and plain areas, the use of diesel generators may differ. Some usage methods in plain areas are not suitable for plateau areas. Today, Saiwei Energy will introduce the characteristics and precautions of using diesel generators in plateau areas:

01 Engine power decrease and fuel consumption increase

Due to the high altitude, the air density and pressure decrease, and the engine's inflation rate, cylinder compression pressure, and temperature also decrease, causing the mixture to be too rich, resulting in poor combustion and black smoke. This situation can be solved by adjusting the fuel injection pump to reduce fuel supply until no black smoke is emitted from the exhaust.

02 Adjusting the fuel supply advance angle

When the altitude is generally between 2000-3000 meters, it can be advanced by 1- 2°, At 3000-4000 meters, it is possible to advance 2- 4°.

03 Battery is prone to failure

Due to the decrease in boiling point of water, the water in the electrolyte of the battery is prone to evaporation, causing the liquid level to decrease and affecting the normal operation of the battery. Therefore, the height of the battery liquid level should be checked regularly and distilled water should be replenished in a timely manner.

04 Engine temperature too high, intensified wear

Due to the decrease in boiling point of water, the cooling water is prone to boiling, causing the engine to overheat, reducing the performance of lubricating oil, and affecting the service life of the engine. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the engine water temperature and replenish the cooling water at any time. Choose appropriate lubricating oil according to the original factory regulations and cannot reduce the quality of lubricating oil.

05 Low temperature, difficult to start

When the temperature is below -10 ℃, it is necessary to start with hot water. If the starter is not started without heating, on the one hand, it is easy to damage the starter, and on the other hand, it will quickly consume the electrical energy of the battery. In low temperature conditions, if the parking time is too long, it is necessary to drain the water completely to prevent the engine and radiator from freezing and cracking.
