3. GENERAL DECRIPTION
3.1. Generator Set Description and Identification;
Diesel generator sets are independent units for the production of electric power; basically, they comprise a constant voltage synchronous generator driven by an internal –combustion, diesel – four cycle engine. The sets are used for two main purposes:
a- Continuous duty sets
Used to produce electric power for countless requi­rements (motive power, lighting, heating, etc) in areas where other sources or power are unavailable.
b- Emergency duty sets
Used during public network failures, when such failures
6
Page 10
are liable to cause serious trouble to persons or mate­rial or financial damage (i.e. in hospitals, industrial plants with non-stop operating cycles, etc) or to meet peak energy demands.
120V/208, 220/380, 277/480 at 60 Hz. Some diesel engines couldn’t be used as 60 Hz.
Water cooled diesel engines which are produced by
Cummins, are used in AKSA generator Sets
According to their application, the sets are further di­vided into:
- Set for use on land.
- Set for use at sea.
The sets for use on land can be either:
- Stationary sets (fixed installation), or
- Mobile sets (mobile installation) These two types of sets are available in a vast range of versions, for every operating requirement, the main ones being:
01. Hand control generating sets
02. Stand-by generating sets The standard stationary generating set comprises:
• Diesel engine.
• Synchronous generator.
• Coupling.
• Radiator.
• Metal sub-base with vibration isolators.
• Starter batteries.
• Fuel tank within the baseframe.
• External fuel tank (for high power generators).
• Instrument panel.
• Exhaust gas silencer.
Aksa Generator Set has been designed as a complete package to provide superior performance and reliabi­lity. Figure 3.1. Identifies the major components. This figure is of a typical generating set. However, every set will be slightly different due to the size and configuration of the major components. This section briefly describes the parts of the generating set. Further information is provided in later sections of this manual.
Aksa generating sets are an Alternating Current gene­rator, built for continuous running at sites where no
electricity is available (some models are excepted) or
as stand-by in case of interruption of the mains. The generator operates at 230/220 V in line-to-neutral mode and 400/440 V in line-to-line mode. at 50 Hz ,

The engine electrical system is 12 volt or 24 volts DC, negative ground/earth. This system includes an electric engine starter, a battery and a battery charging alterna­tor. For 12 volts electrical system one battery is given. For 24 volt system two lead-acid batteries are given. Other types of batteries may be fitted if they were specified. Batteries are detailed in Section 4.
3.5. Cooling System
The engine cooling system is water cooled. The water cooled system is comprised of a radiator (item 4) a pusher fan and thermostat. The alternator has its own internal fan to cool the alternator components.
3.9. Vibration Isolation
The generator set is fitted with vibration isolators which are designed to reduce engine vibration being transmitted to the foundation on which the generator set is mounted. These isolators are fitted between the engine /alternator feet and the base frame.
3.10. Silencer and Exhaust system
An exhaust silencer is provided loose for installation
with the generating set (for open sets). The silencer
and exhaust system reduce the noise emission from the engine and can direct exhaust system reduce the noise emission from engine and can direct exhaust ga-
ses to safe outlets.
3.6. Synchronous Alternator
Horizontal axle alternator (synchronous three phase),
on rolling bearings, self-ventilated within the room with low-loss silicon-sheet stator bundle, electrolytic copper winding with class H insulation. Case –type damper winding for parallel operation (on high-powered alternators). The output electrical power is normally produced by IP23 and a screen protected and drip-proof, self-
exciting, self regulating, brushless alternator. (Item 5)
Fine tuned to the output of this generating set. Moun­ted on top of the alternator is a sheet steel terminal
box (item 6)
3.7. Coupling
If Single bearing alternators are used, a special flexible disk is used in place of a flexible coupling. If two bea-
ring alternator is used, Engine and alternator are firmly joined by a coupling cone that guarantees the proper
assembly coaxiality.
3.8. Fuel tank and Base frame
The engine and alternator are coupled together and mounted on a heavy duty steel base-frame (Item 7). This base frame includes a fuel tank with capacity of
approximately 8 hours operation under variable loads.
The tank is complete with filling cap and fuel level ga-
uge and is connected by flexible joints to the intake
piping and to the overflow piping containing fuel from the injector drain. High power Gensets fuel tank is se­parate from set.
3.11. Control System
One of several types of control systems and panels (item 8) may be fitted to control the operation and output of the set and to protect the set from pos­sible malfunctions. Section 6 of this manual provides detailed information on these systems and will aid in identification of the control system fitted on the ge­nerator set.
4. ELECTRIC STARTING SYSTEMS
Electric starting systems are generally used on all gen­sets. Electrical starting system consists of a starter, mo-
unting flange to the flywheel and bendix gear. There
could be 2 starters on big engines. The power source for electric starting systems is a 12V or 24V DC battery system. The starting voltage is de­termined by engine size, 24 VDC being used for larger engines to reduce starting current and hence cable size. Control of starting is via a start solenoid which is controlled by the gen-set control system.
4.1. Battery Systems
Batteries are of two types– lead acid and NiCad. Lead acid batteries are generally used, being the least ex­pensive. NiCad batteries are used where longer life, etc., is required. Batteries are one of the main parts of the Gensets, and it could be said that 90% of the Gensets fault is caused by battery. So it is important to do regular maintenan­ce and checks on batteries. Batteries are mounted on
8
Page 12
the base frames in most of AKSA Gensets. Battery charging systems;
While the Genset is running, batteries are charged by
charging alternator. If the Genset is not running, batteries are charged by battery chargers that powered by mains.
4.2. Maintenance Batteries Warning
- Do not smoke or allow sparks, flames or other sour­ces of ignition around batteries. Hydrogen gas genera-
ted by charging batteries is explosive.
- Wear an acid resistant apron and face shield or gogg-
les when servicing the battery. If electrolyte is spilled on skin or clothing, flush immediately with large quan­tities of water.
- Take out the metallic things in your wrist and protect your wrist and hand.
- Disconnect the battery negative (earth) lead first and reconnect last.
- Always ensure that battery maintenance is carried out in a well ventilated area.
- The starting batteries should be located as close as possible to the generator set while still being accessible for servicing. This will prevent electrical losses.
Adding the first electrolyte in to battery
1. Take out the protective cover above the battery, and vent caps.
2. Add electrolyte to the Battery up to 15mm above the plates. Electrolyte specific gravity should be 1,28 at 20 °C .Battery and electrolyte temperature should be more than 10°C.
3. Wait 15 minutes .the heat will increase between
the plates and bobble will occur above the electrolyte.
4. Fix the vent caps.
5. Check the battery with hydrometer after 15 minu­tes.
6. Minimum charging time is 6 hours. Check the char­ging amps and electrolyte level every one hour .if there is no changing within one hour, it is charged.
7. When the battery is charged, check the electrolyte
level after 2 hour , if the level is decreased add water up to 10 mm above the plates.
Battery Maintenance
• Keep the top of the battery and its terminals clean.
• Cover the battery terminals and its connections with
Vaseline.
• Tighten the terminals but not tighten it hardly.
• Control the electrolyte level periodically. It must be
10 mm above the plates.
• Control the abrasion in the charge alternator belt
and check periodically the belt tension according to producer’ recommendation.
• Ensure that your battery is not uncharged.(please see
the below table).

Testing the battery
• Inspect the battery before the test.
• Battery terminals and connections will be corroded
in time. Corrosion will wear the terminals and prevent charging. Disconnect the battery terminals and clean
the oxidation with hot water and then reconnect the
terminals and coat them with Vaseline.
• Don’t allow loose connection.
Hydrometer test
Battery charge situation and the specific gravity of the sulfuric acid could be measured by hydrometer.
1. Don’t use distilled water only use pure water.
2. Insert the hydrometer into electrolyte, hydrometer should stay vertically, Once the hydrometer comes to a rest, observe the plane of the liquid surface. Your eye must be horizontal to this plane Evaluation is mentioned below;
1,270 .......1,280 fully charged
1,220 .......1.230 50% charged
1,150 .......1,220 discharged
4.3. Maintenance Free Batteries
Ensure that all battery connections are correct and batteries are always charged. After that there is not any procedure for this battery.
Control of the Battery;
Conduct an inspection every time before testing the battery.
1. A white powdered element causes abrasion to the pole-heads, its connections. Remove the connections
and wash them with hot water to purify the oxidation.
Reconnect it and coat with Vaseline.
2. Check if any un-tightened connections exist.
4.4. Starting Aids
It is customary to maintain coolant temperatures abo­ve 40°C min. To promote quick starting on an emer­gency generator set and to take the load. Thermosta-
tically controlled external block heaters, deriving their
supply from the primary source of power are fitted in the engine cooling system to provide this heating. Heater warms up the jacket water of the engine when
the generator set is not working.
5. HEALTY and SAFETY
Safety should be the primary concern of the facility de­sign engineer and all personnel engaged on installation and commissioning. Safety involves two aspects:
1) Safe operation of the generator itself (and its ac­cessories).
2) Reliable operation of the system. Reliable operation of the system is related to safety because equipment affecting life and health, such as life support equipment in hospitals, emergency egress lighting, building ventilators, elevators and fire pumps, may depend on the generator set.
5.1. Fire Protection
Diesel Fuel can be stored on the floor in an appropria­te tank .Although the flammability of the diesel is high
, it can still catch fire , so that fire extinguishers have to
be provided in the storage. Foam or CO2 have to be used for diesel , oil , gas etc. For electrical cables and bas bar contactors use CO2 or CTC. Sand could be used for Isolations and small fires. The design, selection and installation of fire protection systems require the following considerations:
• The fire protection system must comply with the
requirements of National Standards.
• Typically, the generator room will be required to
have one hour fire resistance rating. Generator room construction will have to have two hour fire resistance rating.
• Generator room shall not be used for storage pur­poses.
• The authority may specify the quantity, type and si­zes of approved portable fire extinguishers required
for the generator room.
• A manual emergency stop station outside the gene­rator room or enclosure or remote from the genera­tor set in an outside enclosure would facilitate shutting down the generator set in the event of a fire or anot­her type of emergency.
• Generator sets have to be run at full load at least
once a year to prevent the accumulation of diesel in
exhaust system.
10
Page 14
General
• Do not fill fuel tanks when the engine is running,
unless tanks are located outside the generator room.
• Do not permit any flame, cigarette, pilot light, spark,
arcing equipment, or other ignition source near the ge­nerating set or fuel tank.
• Fuel lines must be adequately secured and free of
leaks. Fuel connection at the engine should be made
with an approved flexible line. Do not use copper pi­ping on flexible lines as copper will become brittle if
continuously vibrated or repeatedly bent.
• Be sure all fuel supplies have a positive shut-off.
5.2. Exhaust Gases
• Be sure the exhaust system will properly dispel disc­harged gases a way from enclosed or sheltered areas and areas where individuals are likely to congregate.
• Never connect the exhaust system of two or more
engines.
• Never discharge engine exhaust into a brick, tile or cement block chimney, or a similar structure. Exhaust
pulsations could cause severe structural damage.
• Do not use exhaust gases to heat a compartment.
• Be sure that the unit is well ventilated.
• Ensure that there is independent support for the ex-
haust system. No strain should be imposed on the en-
gine exhaust manifolds. Which is especially important
on a turbocharged engine.
• Exhaust pipes should be logged or protected to pre­vent touching or causing fire.
5.3. Moving Parts
• Tighten supports and keep guards in position over
fans drive belts etc. Make sure that fasteners on the set are secure.
• Keep hands, clothing and jewellery away from mo­ving parts.
• If adjustment must be made while the unit is running, use extreme caution around hot manifolds, moving
parts, etc.
5.4. Hazardous Voltages
Improper wiring can cause fire or electrocution, resul­ting in severe personal injury or death and property or equipment damage. For personal protection, stand on a dry wooden plat­form or rubber insulating mat, make sure clothing and
shoes are dry, remove jewellery from hands and use tools with insulated handles.
• Do not leave cables trailing on the engine room flo­or.
• Do not use the same trunk line for electric cables
and fuel water lines.
• Do not run AC and DC cables in the same looms
or trunk line.
• Always ensure that bonding and equipment earthing
are correctly done. All metallic parts that could be­come energized under abnormal conditions must be properly earthed.
• Always disconnect the batteries and battery charger
when serving or carrying out maintenance particularly on equipment arranged for automatic mains failure operation. Always disconnect a battery charger from its AC source before disconnecting the battery cable. Accidental starting of the generator set while working on it can cause severe personal injury or death.
• Do not tamper with interlocks.
• Electrical connections and installation should be
done by persons trained and qualified
• Do not connect the generator set directly to any
building electrical system.
• Always follow all applicable state and local electrical
codes.
• High voltage sets work differently to low voltage
ones. Special equipment and training is required to work around high voltage equipment. Operation and maintenance must be done only by persons trained and qualified to work on such devices. Improper use or procedures may well result in personal injury or death.
• Do not work on energised equipment. Unauthori­sed personnel must not be permitted near energised equipment. Due to the nature of high voltage electrical equipment includes voltage remains after the equip­ment is disconnected from the power source. Equip­ment should be de-energised and safety earthed.
5.5. Water
Water or moisture inside a generator increases the
possibility of “ flashing” and electrical shock, which can cause equipment damage and severe personal injury or death. Do not use a generator which is not dry inside and out.
11
Page 15
5.6. Coolant and Fuel
The coolant heater must not be operated while the cooling system is empty or when the engine is running or damage to the heater will occur. Coolant under pressure have a higher boiling point than water.
• Do not open a radiator, heat exchanger or header
tank pressure cap while the engine is running. Allow the generator set to cool and bleed the system pres­sure first.
• Never use galvanised or copper fuel lines, fittings or
fuel tanks. Condensation in the thanks and lines com­bines with the sulphur in the fuel to produce sulphuric acid. The molecular structure of the copper or galva­nised lines or thanks reacts with the acid and contami­nates the fuel.
6. GENERATING SET CONTROL SYSTEMS
To control and monitor the generator set, an electro­nic control system has been used. Control panel pro­vides a means of starting and stopping the generating set, monitoring its operation and output and automati­cally shutting down the set in the event of critical con­dition arising such as low oil pressure or high engine temperature.
6.1. Control System P 732
P732 control system is fitted to 220kVA and above generator sets. It is designed to start and stop for all electronic or non–electronic diesel engines Generator Sets automatically , besides control module monitor the mains voltage , frequency and controls the gene­rator set and transfer system.

7. USE REQUIREMENTS
7.1. General Precautions And Controls Which Must Be Done Before Starting Up The Generating Set
• Make a general visual inspection on the engine and
alternator. Check if there is any breakage, crack, inden­tation, leakage or looseness. Never operate the gene­rating set before removing any fault, if any.
• Take out foreign materials such as keys, tools, clea­ning wool, papers etc. on the engine and the alternator.
• Check the fuel level in day tank. Refill with fuel if it
is low.
• Check the oil level on the dipstick. Refill with an
appropriate oil if it is low. Oil level normally must be
close to the maximum level line.
• Look at the water level by opening the radiator tap. If it is inadequate add more water. Water level must be
30 mm lower than the water filling neck.
• Engine cooling water must include antifreeze accor­ding to the coolest weather conditions in the area. A
mixture of 50% antifreeze and 50% water provides a
good protection in all area.
• Inspect the radiator air outlet hood, open if clogged
and clear away all obstructions in front of the air outlet.
• Check the air filter gauge. Clean or replace air filter,
if necessary.
• Keep the inlet opening open.
• Make sure that the generating set can easily take air
from the environment.
• Check the battery connection cables. Take care to
tighten the loosened battery terminals with spanner and, cover with special substance and keep clean in
order to avoid oxidation.
• Open the battery caps and check the liquid level in
the cells for maintenance type battery. Add distilled water, if necessary, so as to be 1 cm higher than the separation. Never fill the cells with tap water, acid wa­ter or acid.
• Check if the circuit breaker outlet switch is in OFF
position. (For manually operated Genset).
16
Page 20
• Make sure that the emergency stop button is not
pressed.
7.2. General Precautions And Controls Which Must Be Done After Starting Up The Generating Set
• Check for any abnormal noise or vibration on the
generating set.
• Check if the exhaust system has any leakage.
• Monitor the generating set operation by means of
the control module LCD display. Check the engine temperature and oil pressure Oil pressure must reach the normal value 10 seconds after the generating set operation.
• Monitor the generating set outlet voltage and fre­quency by means of the control module LCD display. Check the voltage, if the voltage between phases is 400 V. and between phase and neutral is 230 V. Volta­ge is adjusted in the factory , do not try to readjust it.
• Check that the frequency is 51 - 52 Hz on generating
sets with mechanical governors and 50Hz on genera­ting sets with electronic governors.
• If an engine block water heater is not available, run
the generating set at no-load for 3-5 minutes and when the engine warm than apply on load (for manual models)
Apply load to the generating set as follows on manual mode
• Set the alternator outlet circuit breaker on the panel
to ON position.
• Set the load circuit beakers (or fuses) on the distri­bution panel to ON position one by one. This way, the generating set cannot be suddenly put under full load. Otherwise, the engine stalling or alternator winding in­sulation of formation or burning can occur.
• Set the alternator outlet circuit breaker on the circuit
to OFF position before stop the generating set.
• Continue to run the unloaded engine for purpose of
cooling period for 2 minutes and then stop.
• Never operate the generating set before removing
any fault, if any.
• Check the oil / coolant/fuel leakage while engine is
running.
• Never run the engine below 30%of prime power
for a long time.
• Share the load on every phase (U,V,W) equally.
• On automatic controlled gen set load will be on and
off automatically.
8. LUBRICATING OIL
Oil system of diesel engine is one of the most impor­tant elements of the engine. Correctly made engine overhaul (this subject includes oil change periods, filter change periods, paying attention about selecting the true type of oil) prolongs the life cost of the engine.
8.1. Oil Performance Properties
The American Petroleum Institute (API) the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) and Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) has developed and preserved a system in order to classify the lubrication oils for their performance categories
8.2. Lubrication Oil Recommendations for Cummins Diesel Engines
Cummins recommends that high quality multi grade
SAE 15W/40 high service engine oil in diesel engines
are used. At ambient temperatures above –15 °C is
15W40.
The minimum API oil quality levels recommended for use is CH / CI-4, CH or CI-4 can be used in areas where CF4 oil is not yet available, but the oil interval must be reduced API CA, CB, CC, CD, CE, CG4 categories not recommended, do not use.

11. ALTERNATOR DESCRIPTION
11.1. General
The alternator fitted on the generator set is of the brushless self-excitation type which eliminates the ma­intenance associated with slip rings and brushes. The control system, consist of an automatic voltage regula­tor, protective circuits.
11.2. Construction and Components
The stator core is produced from insulated low loss electrical grade sheet steel laminations. These are built and welded under a fixed pressure to give an extre­mely rigid core to withstand vibration and load impul­ses. The complete wound stator is, after impregnation, pressed into the frame and pinned into position. The rotor assembly, which comprises the alternator
rotating field systems, the exciter rotating diode system
and the cooling fan. The complete rotor assembly is dynamically balanced to ensure vibration-free running. At the drive end of the rotor assembly a cast-aluminum centrifugal fan draws cooling air through screened co­vers at the non drive end and discharges it through similar side mounted covers at the drive end.
11.3. Operation
The electrical power produced by the generating set is derived from a closed loop system consisting princi-
pally of the exciter rotor the main revolving field and
the automatic voltage regulator (see Figure 11.1) The process begins when the engine starts to rotate the internal components of the alternator. The residual magnetism in the main rotor produces a small alterna-
ting voltage (AC) in the main stator. The automatic voltage regulator rectifies this voltage (converts it to
DC) and applies it to the exciter stator. This DC current to the exciter stator creates a mag-
netic field which in turn, induces an AC voltage in the
exciter rotor. This AC voltage is converted back to DC
by the rotating diodes.
When this DC voltage appears at the main rotor, a
stronger magnetic field than the original residual field is created which induces a higher voltage in the main sta­tor. This higher voltage circulates through the system inducing an even higher DC voltage back at the main rotor. This cycle continuous to build up the voltage unit it approaches the proper output level of the gene­rating set. At this point the automatic voltage regulator
begins to limit the voltage being passed to the exciter
stator which, in turn, limits the overall power output of the alternator. This build-up process takes place in less than one se­cond.
Figure.11.1. Meccalte alternator, operating principles block schematic diagram
11.4. Automatic Voltage Regulator
The Automatic Voltage Regulator (AVR) maintains a no load to full load steady state voltage to tight tole­rances. The AVR has a volt/hertz characteristic which proportionally reduces the regulated voltage at redu­ced speeds.
11.5. Alternator Insulation Test
Before starting the generating set after installation, test
23
Page 27
the insulation resistance of the windings. The Automa­tic Voltage Regulator (AVR) should be disconnected and the rotating diodes either shorted out with tem­porary links or disconnected. Any control wiring must also be disconnected. A 500 V Megger or similar instrument should be used.

12.1. Engine Storage:
The engine should be put through an engine “preserva­tion” procedure that includes cleaning the engine and replacing all the fluids with new or preserving fluids. The rate of corrosion varies with climatic conditions. Variance in climatic conditions makes it impossible to state the length of time an engine can be stored witho-
24
Page 28
ut rust and corrosion damage. Following procedure covers the basic method of pre­paring the engine for Temporary/Long storage.
- Short Term Storage:
Note: This procedure describes the correct method of preparing an engine for short-term (1-6 months) storage.
• Operate the engine until the coolant temperature
reaches 70°C (160°F). Shut off the engine.
• Remove the fuel tube to the engine fuel filter and the
injector return tube. Note: Fuel system preservative oil must meet Federal
Specification VV-L-800C. (Example: Daubert Chemi­cal NoxRust No.518)
Fill two containers, one with diesel fuel and the other with the preservative oil. Put both fuel tubes into the container of diesel fuel.
• Start the engine. When it is operating smoothly, put
the fuel supply tube into the container of preservative oil. Remove the injector return tube from the diesel fuel
container. When preservative oil flows from the tube,
shut off the engine. Install the fuel supply tube to the fuel filter, and put a cap on all other fuel tubes.
• Drain the lubricating oil pan, the oil filters, and the
fuel filter. Install the drain plug into the oil pan, and install the filter cans. Tighten according to specifications.
• Disconnect the electrical wires from the fuel pump
solenoid.
• Drain the coolant passages and jackets.
Note: It is not necessary to drain the coolant if it is a permanent-type antifreeze with a rust inhibitor.
• Look the engine over closely, and cover all openings
with tape to prevent dirt and moisture from entering. Install a warming tag which alerts others of no oil in the engine and that it must not be started.
• Store the engine in a dry area of even temperature.
Rotate the crankshaft two to three revolutions every 3 to 4 weeks using the accessory drive
- Removing the Engine from Short – Term Storage
Remove the tape from all openings, and remove the
warning tag.
Refill the oil filters with clean 15W-40 oil, and prime
the lubrication system. Use clean diesel fuel to flush the preservative oil from the fuel system, and fill the fuel filter again. Adjust belt tension
- Long Term Storage
This procedure describes the correct method of pre­paring an engine for long-term (6 to 24 months) sto­rage. Note: If the engine has been stored for 24 months, the cooling system must be flushed with a solvent. Repeat the flushing procedure a second time.
• Operate the engine until the coolant temperature
reaches 70°C (160°F). Shut off the engine.
• Drain the lubricating oil pan. Install the drain plug, and
fill the oil pan to the high level mark on the dipstick with preservative oil. Note: Lubricating system preservative oil must meet
MIL-L-21260 Type PE30-1, SAE 30. (Example: Shell
66202)
• Disconnect the fuel supply tube at the fuel filter and
the injector return tube at a convenient place. Note: Fuel system preservative oil must meet Federal
Specification VV-L-800C. (Example: Daubert Chemi­cal NoxRust No.518)
Fill two containers, one with diesel fuel and the other with the preservative oil. Put both fuel tubes into the container of diesel fuel.
• Start the engine. When it is operating smoothly, put
the fuel supply tube into the container of preservative oil. Remove the injector return tube from the diesel
fuel container. When preservative oil flows from the
tube, shut off the engine. Connect the fuel supply tube to the fuel filter, and put a cap on the ends of all the other fuel tubes.
• Drain the lubricating oil pan, and the oil filters. Install
the drain plug into the oil pan. Drain and flush the coo­ling system, using a water-soluble rust inhibitor.
• Remove the aftercooler assembly and the exhaust manifold. Spray preservative oil into the intake and ex-
haust ports of cylinder heat and into the aftercooler
housing and exhaust manifold. Install the aftercooler
25
Page 29
assembly and the exhaust manifold.
• Remove the rocker housing covers, and spray the
rocker levers, crossheads, valve stems, valve guides, and the push rods with preservative oil. Install the roc­ker housing cover. Note: Use a preservative compound that meets Mi­litary Specification MIL-C-16137C Type P-2 Grade 1 or 2.
• Cover all openings with heavy paper and tape to
prevent entrance of dirt and moisture. Put a warning tag on the engine which contains the following information:
- Date the engine was prepared for storage.
- Crankshaft must not be rotated.
- Coolant has been drained.
- Engine must not be operated. Store the engine in a dry area of even temperature.
Removing the Engine from Long-Term Storage
• Remove the paper and the tape from all openings.
Remove the warning tag
• Flush the fuel system with clean diesel fuel to remove
preservative oil.
• Remove a plug from the main oil rifle drilling. Use a
pump to flush the preservative oil from the engine with light mineral oil Note: Rotate the crankshaft three or four revolutions as the engine is flushed. Drain and flush the cooling system.
• Install new oil, water and fuel filters. Fill the cooling
system with coolant. Prime the lubricating system Adjust the belt tension according to specifications. Ad­just the injector and valve clearances. Tighten all cap screws, plugs, and fittings as necessary.
12.1.1. Start procedures for Engines that not stored according to Manuel
- Check the fan belt tension.
- Check the engine before starting.
- Lubricate the turbocharger before starting.
- Before cranking the engine rotate the crankshaft 3 or 4 times.
- Remove the cylinder head
- To ensure that all main bearings are lubricated suf-
ficiently, crank the engine for 15 second and wait 2 minutes , then crank the engine one more time for 15 seconds.
- Run the engine for a while without load , let the engine heated and check all indicators before loading the engine.
- Check the engine if there is any leakage.
12.2. Alternator Storage:
When an alternator is in storage, moisture tends to
condense in the windings. To minimize condensation, store the generating set in a dry storage area. If possib­le use space heaters to keep the windings dry. After removing the generating set from storage, per­form an insulation check as discussed in Section 12.5.
12.3. Battery Storage:
While the battery is stored, it should receive a ref­reshing charge every 4 weeks up to a fully charged condition.
