When should the drive belt of the Cummins diesel generator set need to be replaced? The following will analyze it for you.
Although the belt is an inconspicuous thing, as a power transmission device, it is also one of the spare parts. The use of diesel generator sets is almost inseparable from this part. It has many functions, such as: driving the rotation of the fan of the unit, driving the charger, and charging the battery during the transfer of the generator set. Therefore, the service life of the belt is also within a certain range.
So, when the situation is reached, we need to replace it? Generally, when the belt base layer has cracks (that is, there are cracks on the belt, the core is broken, and the groove section is cracked); the base layer of the belt and the groove section are separated; the base is worn and cracked; the pull rope is scattered; the side wear is serious (ie loose wire, side material damage, side hardening, side slippage, upper surface crack); there is no gap between the inner diameter of the belt groove section and the bottom of the pulley groove. When these situations occur, we need to replace the belt. If it is not replaced in time, the fan speed of the unit will be too slow, causing the unit to have high water temperature due to insufficient heat dissipation. When some parts of the unit have faults that can be seen with the naked eye, we need to replace the parts. If they are not replaced in time, it will lead to one or another failure of the unit. These seemingly inconspicuous small faults may lead to Unit shuts down.
The above is the sharing of when the drive belt of the Cummins diesel generator set needs to be replaced.
