What are the starting methods for generator sets?

2025-04-29 09:07:49Font scaling:

The starting methods of generators mainly include the following:


 
1. Hand start: This is a manual starting method. You need to manually pull the starting handle to rotate the crankshaft, which in turn drives the flywheel and diesel engine to start.
 
2. Battery start: Use batteries and motors to start diesel generators. The battery needs to be charged in advance, and then the wires are connected to the motor, and the motor drives the diesel generator to start.
 
3. Compressed air start: The crankshaft is rotated by compressed air, which drives the flywheel and diesel engine to start. This method usually needs to be used in conjunction with the battery start method.
 
4. Automatic start: This is one of the common starting methods. The diesel generator can start automatically according to the set starting program.


 
5. Parallel starter start: For large diesel generator sets, a parallel starter is used to help the diesel generator start.
 
6. Gas turbine start: Use a gas turbine engine to start the diesel generator, generate gas by burning natural gas or petroleum gas, drive the turbine to rotate, and then drive the diesel generator to start.
 
‌7. Manual mode‌: In a fully automatic diesel generator set, you need to select manual mode on the control panel, use the start key to turn on the power, press the manual mode, start the unit, check the water and oil circuits during idling, and then adjust to high-speed mode‌.
 
‌8. Automatic mode‌: In a fully automatic diesel generator set, turn the knob on the control system interface to the automatic position, press the AUTO button under the control panel, the system will automatically detect the city power situation, and automatically start the diesel generator set when the city power is cut off‌.


 
‌9. One-button start‌: This control system requires manual closing, similar to the fully automatic manual mode‌.
 
Choosing a suitable generator starting method requires comprehensive consideration based on actual needs and budget.
