The installation of the fuel tank of diesel generator sets is also very particular. Different types of diesel generator sets have corresponding standard fuel tanks and fuel supply systems. There are many types of fuel tanks, and users can design discrete fuel tanks of various capacities according to requirements. Users can also design the fuel tank by themselves. When installing the diesel generator set fuel tank, the user should pay attention to the following precautions:
(1) The storage location of the fuel tank must be safe to prevent fire. The fuel tank or oil drum should be placed in a visible place alone, properly away from the diesel generator set, and it is strictly prohibited to smoke;
(2) If the fuel tank is made by the user, it should be noted that the fuel tank of the standby diesel generator set is made of stainless steel or steel plate. Do not paint or galvanize the inside of the fuel tank, because they will chemically react with the diesel oil, which may cause the diesel generator set. Damaged impurities and reduced diesel quality, cleanliness and combustion efficiency;
(3) After the fuel tank is placed, the highest oil level cannot be 2.5 meters higher than the base of the diesel generator set. If the oil level of the large oil depot is higher than 2.5 meters, a daily fuel tank should be added between the large oil depot and the diesel generator set, so that the oil tank can be directly sent to the diesel generator set. The pressure of the oil is not more than 2.5 meters. Even during the shutdown of the diesel generator set, the fuel is not allowed to flow into the diesel engine through the fuel inlet pipeline or the fuel injection pipeline by gravity;
(4) The resistance at the oil port is not allowed to exceed the specified value when using a clean filter element specified on the performance data sheet of all diesel generator sets. This resistance value is based on half the fuel in the fuel tank;
(5) The position of the fuel supply pipe end of the fuel tank should be about 50MM higher than the bottom of the fuel tank of the diesel generator set to prevent sediment and water from being sucked into the fuel supply pipe;
(6) The connection of the fuel oil return pipeline shall not cause shock waves in the fuel oil in the diesel generator set oil pipeline;
(7) The fuel capacity in the fuel tank should ensure daily daily supply;
(8) The oil supply and oil return area of the fuel tank shall be provided with a perforated partition to reduce the heat exchange of the diesel generator set.
