Periodic Load Operation
When a diesel engine driven generator is continuously
operated with less light load than 30% or at no load
for a long time, carbon will be stuck inside the exhaust
pipe, exhaust muffler and engine. Unburned fuel
will also leak sometimes from the turbo wastegate,
connected portion of exhaust pipe, and the outlet
port of muffler. If it is continuously operated under the
conditions, the unburned fuel could ignite.
Moreover, carbon accumulation could cause engine
power drop or overheating, resulting in engine
damage.
Eliminate carbon accumulation by periodically burning
it during operation with a load until the exhaust gas
becomes almost clear.
(For load current, refer to the following table as a
standard value.)
WARNING
Increase the load factor, step by step, paying attention
to the exhaust conditions. Also watch for sparks from
the exhaust pipe that could result in a fire.
