Diesel fuel tank is one of the components of diesel generator set (fuel system) and a significant element. Diesel generator sets of various specifications and models always have matching standard diesel fuel tanks and oil options. The processing technology of diesel fuel tanks There are many models, which can be processed into discrete diesel fuel tanks of various capacities according to relevant regulations. Let’s get to know each other carefully.
1. The diesel engine should reasonably and effectively ensure the lowest point oil level in the diesel fuel tank, and the lowest point should not be less than 0.8m higher than the oil inlet of the diesel engine.
2. The diesel fuel tank should be installed and used in a reliable area around the diesel generator set. Its capacity should be able to maintain the full load operation of the diesel generator set for 6-8 hours.
3. When the diesel generator set is in an emergency situation, in order to prevent the exhaust gas from entering the fuel channel, it should be reasonably and effectively ensure that the lowest oil level of the diesel fuel tank is 150mm higher than the fuel pump inlet. The entry of exhaust gas into the fuel passage is a necessary source of abnormality in the operating system of the diesel generator set.
4. If the installation and use of the diesel fuel tank is 456mm higher than the main fuel tank, or 60m away, a fuel transfer pump must be installed and used between the diesel fuel tank and the main fuel tank.
5. If you choose to make the fuel tank yourself, it must be made of stainless steel or steel plate. You cannot paint or hot-dip galvanize on the internal structure of the diesel fuel tank. Because painting or hot-dip galvanizing will form a chemical reaction with the diesel oil, it will destroy the quality of diesel oil and interfere with Diesel fuels combustion factors.
6. It is recommended to install and use the oil float button in the diesel fuel tank to check the oil level. Install and use the oil level sensor selected in the diesel fuel tank to connect with a dry contact in the monitoring screen.
7. The fuel capacity in the diesel fuel tank should ensure the regular supply and demand every day.
8. There should be an exhaust port in the diesel fuel tank.
The above is the special attention on the selection of diesel fuel tanks for diesel generator sets. The diesel fuel tank is the main component of diesel generator sets, and it is also an extremely necessary component. As long as the diesel generator set fails suddenly, it will always make the equipment cannot be selected routinely. Generally, It is all because we ignore the maintenance and care issues in the selection process and do not pay attention to the selection of diesel fuel tanks. Therefore, when choosing diesel generator sets, we must also pay attention to the maintenance and care of diesel fuel tanks.
