At present, the starting battery of the generator set used by many customers is still the kind of battery that adds the battery water. Special attention should be paid to the use of this battery:
When the battery of the diesel generator set is not used for a long time, it must be properly charged before use to ensure the normal capacity of the battery. Normal operation and charging will cause some water in the battery to be evaporated, which requires frequent rehydration of the battery, before rehydration, first clean the dirt around the filling port to prevent it from falling into the battery cell, and then open the filling port, add the right amount of distilled water or pure water, do not add too full (to the battery plate scale as the standard), otherwise, when the battery discharge/charging, The electrolyte inside the diesel engine will pour out from the overflow hole of the filling port, causing corrosion damage to the surrounding objects and the environment.
Avoid starting the unit at a low temperature, because the battery capacity will not be able to output normally in a low temperature environment, and long-term discharge may cause battery failure (cracking or explosion).
The battery of the standby generator set should be regularly maintained and charged, and can be equipped with a floating charger.
Battery part of diesel generator maintenance tips:
(1) Scrub the outside of the battery with a wet cloth, and wipe clean the dust, oil, and white powder on the panel and pile head (that is, the positive and negative pole heads) that is easy to cause leakage of dirt. This often scrubs the battery, the battery pile head will not accumulate white acid corrosion powder, its service life will be longer.
(2) Open the battery water cover to see if the water level is in the normal position. Generally, there will be upper and lower limit marks on the side of the battery for user reference. If the water level is found to be below the mark line, distilled water must be added, if there is no distilled water, then filtered tap water can be used for emergency. Water can not be added too much, the standard is to add to the middle of the top and bottom line.
(3) Check whether the battery is charged normally. If the user has a three-purpose meter, after starting the engine, measure the voltage at the two poles of the battery, and it must be more than 13V to be normal. Found that the charging voltage is too low, you need to ask a professional to overhaul the charging system. If there is no three-purpose meter, the visual method can be used: after the engine starts, open the battery and water cover to see if there are no bubbles in each small cell. The normal condition is that bubbles are constantly rising to the surface of the water, and the more oil will rise; If it does not bubble, it is likely that there is a problem with the charging system. It should be noted that hydrogen will be produced when doing this test, so there must be no open flame during the test to avoid explosion and fire.
