Today, we shall discuss the correlation and different between various generator set. For point of note, the most common generator sets such as Mikano, FG Wilson, Jubaili, Marapco, Shark, Demba etc all have same engine which is Perkins engine. That implies that they uses same engine parts. Their only different is the name printed on the soundproof. This how that comes to possibility. The named generator brands don't manufacture generator, they only obtain the license or go into trade deal to assemble the parts which they import from Perkins in UK. Perkins Engines are manufacture in UK not Nigeria. So, these companies only construct the soundproof that houses the Perkins engines. In simple language, Mikano 20 kvA has same engine has 20 kvA FG Wilson, Marapco and the rest. The only difference of note is the Electrical component of the generator. A generator is divided into mechanical and electrical components. So, the electrical component that has the alternator differs from brand to brand. But, hardly do they have fault once they are well protected from water intrusion. Mantrac generator are manufacture and assembled by CAT ie caterpillar. Mantrac carries Perkins engines as well. |

Let discuss some technical issue again. It's quit sometime now I have been off. Sorry, this job is time and breath taking. Emergency Power: Key Maintenance Practices for Generators Gasoline or liquid propane (LP) gas generators use a gas-driven engine connected directly to an electric generator. In a typical application, the gas engine starts automatically in an emergency, turning the generator rotor and inducing an electric current in the stator. It continues to produce power as long as the engine runs. A stationary gas engine uses a starter connected to a battery and electrical system, cooling system, lubrication system, fuel system, and drive train. It also uses a transfer switch that interlocks with the main power system to shift power sources in an emergency. Each of these subsystems in gas and diesel engines has unique inspection, troubleshooting, and repair needs. The best way to maintain these units is to give attention to each major component. The transfer of power in an emergency starts when the transfer switch receives a no-power signal, indicating failure in the main power source. The transfer switch disconnects from that source and connects the battery to the starter, starting the engine through the engine’s electrical system. The drive train connects to the water, oil, and fuel circulating systems and to the emergency generator, which begins producing electricity as soon as the engine begins to rotate. Inspection and maintenance procedures consist of making sure water, oil, gas, and battery electrolytes are available in the proper quantity and condition. Technicians can easily overlook this step, but because the emergency equipment is idle most of the time, evaporation, leakage or contamination can take their toll. Technicians tend to lubricate other components, such as bearings requiring grease, infrequently because of low operating time. The danger with these components is overgreasing, which forces open seals and allows moisture into the bearing grease cavities, causing premature corrosion and bearing failure. Technicians also should actuate and test the transfer-switch mechanism at least monthly, and they should make sure the contacts are bright and smooth. If they are dull or oxidized, technicians can polish them to improve contact so good current flow occurs without arcing at the contacts when they close. The battery requires the same visual inspection as other batteries — a frequent voltage and specific-gravity check to ensure the battery is fully charged. The charger is usually an integral part of the emergency system and has automatic on-off controls. When the charge decreases to the preset level, the charger kicks on and brings the battery to full charge, then shuts off. Even though charging is automatic, technicians should actuate the charging system at least once a month to ensure it works properly and at the right time to keep the battery sufficiently charged. |

Today, we shall talk about how to Read Those Smoke Signals In addition to what you can discern from testers and gauges, the smoke coming from your diesel engine can help alert you to current and potential problems. Black smoke: This indicates the presence of unburned or partially burned fuel. The most common cause for this is overloading, sometimes referred to as overfueling because more fuel is fed into the engine than it can efficiently burn.A constant plume of black while running under heavy load, or even at ordinary cruising rpm, is evidence of chronic overfueling. Worn, carbon-encrusted, or malfunctioning injectors or a clogged or wet air filter may also be to blame. Blue smoke: This, on the other hand, is typically created when crankcase oil is burned in the engine's combustion chambers, possibly causing carbon buildup there. Worn valve stems or guides (stems are the thin shafts on exhaust and intake valves; guides are the tubes in which they move) can let oil sneak past to mix with the fuel. Because oil is a much heavier distillate than diesel, it doesn't burn completely, which results in carbon formation and blue smoke. Determining which culprit has produced the blue smoke-the valve stems and guides, or the piston rings-calls for a cylinder differential leak-down test, a procedure that can be performed by a diesel mechanic. White smoke: This is one of the most difficult symptoms to diagnose because a number of factors can point to two general causes: overcooling, whereby the cylinder head and combustion chambers operate at a temperature that's too low for proper combustion; and piston-ring blowby, which indicates low compression and poor combustion. White smoke represents atomized fuel, very small droplets of fuel that form a fog of sorts. It's common, and quite normal, to see this when a cold engine is started and until it warms up. If, however, a preheat device such as glow plugs or an air-intake heater are malfunctioning, the production of white smoke may be excessive and longer lasting. In extreme cases, the engine may be difficult or impossible to start. Fuel of poor quality, particularly fuel that's off spec or not properly formulated as Number 2 diesel, will burn poorly, which in turn may produce white smoke. Adding a fuel cetane booster may temporarily alleviate-and identify-this problem. Other causes of white smoke are poorly adjusted valves or worn valve seats, a partially activated decompression lever, a blown head gasket, or a cracked cylinder head or cylinder liner. A mechanic with the proper tools can narrow down the suspects. Engine Tip: White smoke can indicate overheating, but the "smoke" is actually steam that's produced in the exhaust system rather than as a result of an overheating engine. This may occur, for instance, because of restrictions in the injected elbow. |

Beware of Generator fumes they kill Nigerians now rely on electric generators for powering their homes and businesses. This has led to an upsurge in the use of generators. Poor awareness on how to use a generator has led to deaths from generator fumes. One fact that generator owners and users must know, is that generator fumes kill hence generators must be operated outside the main building where people reside with its exhaust pipe facing the open air. The rate of generator fume casualties have made it necessary for me to give this simple advice.Hardly does a week pass without a news item or two about how whole families were wiped out by generator fumes, Generator fumes contain poisonous gases like carbon dioxide CO2 and carbon monoxide CO. These two gases are colourless and odourless hence when in a room containing unsafe levels of these gases the occupant has no way of identifying its presence. This may be the reason why many victims of generator fumes poisoning are found either dead or incapacitated. Saving yourself from generator fumes There are a few common sense approaches to use in reducing the chances of death by generator fumes only two will be discussed here. The most obvious step is to operate your generator outside the house. Do not operate your generator inside your house, in a passage or corridor. If you must place a generator within a building, it must be in a veranda, balcony, or an open-air location within the building. The exhaust pipe must also face the open air (not the wall). Remove the generator from your window. Also, ensure that the windows on the opposite side to the side closer to the generator are open. This will ensure an in flow of fresh air into your home. Remember that fumes from your neighbours’ generators can also harm you so ensure that your neighbours’ generators are no threat to your precious life. So make sure your neighbours’ generators are mounted in a safe place. Another smart thing you should do to save yourself and your family from poisonous generator fumes is to install fire detector or smoke detectors in your home. Buy a smoke detector with carbon dioxide and/or carbon monoxide detection capability. These smoke detectors will monitor the levels of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide in air and will alert you when they exceed safe limits. Buy smoke detectors with poisonous gas detection capability and install them in strategic locations in your home like your living room, studies and bedrooms. A well-installed and functional smoke alarm will alert you of generator fume thereby saving your life. Hope you find it interesting ? Call or WhatsApp me on 08152821022 for more info |

Avoid generator risks by following these safety tips A good generator can get you through a power outage but it also poses safety hazards of its own including carbon monoxide poisoning, electric shock or electrocution and the risk of fire. Every year, people die in incidents related to portable generator use, reports the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Most of the incidents involve CO poisoning from generators used indoors or in partially-enclosed spaces. Here's how to stay safe, with tips from the CPSC. Carbon monoxide hazards Never use a generator in an enclosed or partially-enclosed space. Generators can produce high levels of carbon monoxide very quickly. Remember that you cannot smell or see CO. Even if you can't smell exhaust fumes, you may still be exposed to CO. If you start to feel sick, dizzy, or weak while using a generator, get to fresh air immediately. The CO from generators can rapidly lead to full incapacitation and death. Never use a generator indoors, including in homes, garages, basements, crawl spaces, and other enclosed or partially-enclosed areas, even with ventilation. Opening doors and windows or using fans will not prevent CO build-up in the home. Follow the instructions that come with your generator. Locate the unit outdoors and away from doors, windows, and vents that could allow CO to come indoors. Use battery-operated CO alarms or plug-in CO alarms with battery back-up in your home, according to the manufacturer's installation instructions. Test the CO alarms and replace dead batteries. Electrical hazards Keep the generator dry and do not use it in rain or wet conditions. To protect from moisture, operate it on a dry surface under an open, canopy-like structure. Dry your hands before touching the generator. Plug appliances directly into the generator. Or, use a heavy duty, outdoor-rated extension cord that is rated (in watts or amps) at least equal to the sum of the connected appliance loads. Check that the entire cord is free of cuts or tears and that the plug has all three prongs, especially a grounding pin. Never try to power the house wiring by plugging the generator into a wall outlet, a practice known as "backfeeding." This is an extremely dangerous practice that presents an electrocution risk to utility workers and neighbors served by the same utility transformer. It also bypasses some of the built-in household circuit protection devices. For best results, use an appropriate power transfer switch, installed by a professional. Fire hazards Before refueling the generator, turn it off and let it cool down. Gasoline spilled on hot engine parts could ignite. Never store fuel for your generator in the home. Gasoline, propane, kerosene, and other flammable liquids should be stored outside of living areas in properly-labeled, non-glass safety containers. Do not store them near a fuel-burning appliance, such as a natural gas water heater in a garage. Power inverters, an alternative to generators, also pose safety concerns. Here's how to use a power inverter safely . Plus more generator safety tips from the CPSC. And more on generators from Consumer Reports generator buying guide. |
