The lubricating oil system and cooling water system of diesel generators are independent systems, and under normal circumstances, the cooling water of diesel generators will not enter the oil pan. However, in practical work, it is common to encounter the phenomenon of cooling water entering the oil pan.
Reminder to users: After water enters the oil pan, it can dilute, deteriorate, or even emulsify the engine oil. Failure to solve this problem in a timely manner can cause wear and tear on the components, and even lead to shaft burning accidents.
The diesel generator set manufacturer has summarized some phenomena that may occur when engine oil enters the water:
1. The cooling water volume of the radiator is abnormal and gradually decreases;
2. If the oil pressure decreases by 100-200kPa at the same speed, the cause should be checked in a timely manner;
3. After continuous operation or standing for several hours, the oil level in the oil pan of the diesel generator significantly increases, that is, the amount of oil does not decrease but instead increases, sometimes overflowing from the vernier scale;
4. There is white mist in the crankcase and respirator of the unit, and sometimes water droplets are produced at the respirator mouth;
5. In the early stage of water ingress into the oil pan, there are water droplets in the engine oil. Over time, the engine oil will turn milky white;
6. There is a phenomenon of "boiling" or "boiling" in the cooling water. The cylinder liner has cracks and water has entered the oil pan.
