System Description

Engine Lubrication System


An internal combustion engine would not run for even a few minutes if the moving parts were allowed to make metal-to-
metal contact. The heat generated due to the tremendous amounts of friction would melt the metals, leading to the
destruction of the engine. To prevent this, all moving parts ride on a thin film of oil that is pumped between all the
moving parts of the engine. Once between the moving parts, the oil serves two purposes. One purpose is to lubricate
the bearing surfaces. The other purpose is to cool the bearings by absorbing the friction generated heat. The flow of oil
to the moving parts is accomplished by the engine's internal lubricating system. Oil is accumulated and stored in the
engine's oil pan where one or more oil pumps take a suction and pump the oil through one or more oil filters as shown
in Figure 12. The filters clean the oil and remove any metal that the oil has picked up due to wear. The cleaned oil then
flows up into the engine's oil galleries. A pressure relief valve(s) maintains oil pressure in the galleries and returns oil to
the oil pan upon high pressure. The oil galleries distribute the oil to all the bearing surfaces in the engine. Once the oil
has cooled and lubricated the bearing surfaces, it flows out of the bearing and gravity-flows back into the oil pan. In
medium to large diesel engines, the oil is also cooled before being distributed into the block. This is accomplished by
either internal or external oil cooler. The lubrication system also supplies oil to the engine's governor.

Cooling System

This system is provided by a radiator. Internal combustion engines are often cooled by passing a liquid
called engine coolant through the engine block, where it is heated, then through the radiator itself where it
loses heat to the atmosphere, and then back to the engine in a closed loop. Engine coolant is usually water-
based, but may also be oil. It is common to employ a water pump to force the engine coolant to circulate,
and also for an axial fan to force air through the radiator.

Starting System

This system is provided by a 24Vdc battery, starting relay, and starting motor which gives enough voltage to
give signal to the engine to start. During emergency situation, when generator is in automatic operation, the
ATS will give a mains failure signal which will start the engine automatically.

Stopping System

Stopping of the engine will be done thru manual stopping or automatic stopping. Manual stopping could be
done by pressing the stop button and will give a signal to the starting motor to stop. The engine will cool
down in 3 minutes before it will automatically stops or by pressing the emergency stop button. The engine
stops immediately without cooling down. Automatic stops is a command by the ATS which gives signal to
the generator that the normal power is already available. The generator will start to cool down in 3 minutes
before it automatically stops completely.

Turbocharger

is a turbine-driven forced induction device that increases an internal combustion engine's efficiency and
power output by forcing extra air into the combustion chamber.[2][3] This improvement over a naturally
aspirated engine's power output is because the compressor can force more air—and proportionately more
fuel—into the combustion chamber than atmospheric pressure alone.

Governor (Electrically Powered)


Is use to control the speed of the engine. The electrically powered governor is a three-component system,
requiring a magnetic pick-up, speed control and actuator.
Operation and Maintenance Manual
Emergency Power

System Operation
1. Operator should be competent or highly experienced with the equipment
2. ll vendors affecting this system should be properly coordinated
3. Frequent preventive maintenance is highly recommended
4. Use genuine parts for the replacement of the consumable parts of the engine.
5. Do not change the settings of the system otherwise its functionality will be compromised.
6. Genset room should be a restricted area.

Sequence of Synchronizing/Paralleling Operation


Each of the generators will share loads equally when paralleled. After 60 seconds from the mains failure signal,
synchronizing panel controllers will start to monitor the loads. System will start to check for load reserve
requirement and disconnect the less priority generator/s accordingly. If the actual load reserve and load is <30%,
system will start to disconnect the generator/s according from the lowest priority then if the load suddenly goes up
approaching 80% the system will automatically start and engaged the next priority generator/s. each generator will
be given a priority number and that will normally follow the generator number [Gen 1 would be priority 1(highest),
Gen 2 would be priority 2 & so on.]. This priority can be change via the master selector switch. By selecting the
generator to master duty, it will change the priority to the highest. If the load demand increases after some
generators have been stopped due to low load demand and low load reserve, the next higher priority generator
will start and connect to the system. If the not running generator is selected to be the master duty, it will start &
connect to the system. If any generator disconnect from the system due to fault, another available and not running
generator with the highest priority will start and connect to the bus.

When the mains failure signal is not available for more than 30 seconds or when the mains supply resume, all
running generators will open its corresponding breakers and start to cool down for 3 minutes and automatically
stop.

Modes of Operation
The system decides which operating mode is established.

Manual Mode
1. Press start button of the 1st generator to start.
2. Press GCB ON push button to close the GCB to the dead bus. If the generator voltage is out of limits the GCM
(Generator Control Module) will not respond to the GCB ON command. If the GCM detects a dead bus, it will
immediately close the GCB.
3. Press start button of the next generator to start.
4. Press the GCB ON push button to start synchronizing. If GCM detects voltage on the bus, it will start
synchronizing and close the GCB when it reaches the voltage window setting in the GCM. Pressing the GCB ON
does not immediately close the GCB. The GCM will check first if the voltage is within the parameters limits before
giving a GCB close signal. If GCB close button is pressed before 6 o’clock and or after 6 o’clock but far from 12
o’clock the GCM will try to force the generator to synchronize and go near 12 o’clock and close breaker at the safe
time when generators to be paralleled is synchronized.
5.Follow procedures for the succeeding generators to be paralleled.
Operation and Maintenance Manual
Emergency Power

Auto Mode
Starting and stopping of the generator sets depends on the status of the mains supply. In the event of mains
failure the LVSG/ATS will give a mains failure signal to the GPS that will trigger a start command for all generator
sets. From the received of the start command all the generators will ramp up for a maximum of 10 seconds to
stabilized the generator sets before sending closing command to the breaker. After the ramp up time the first
generator set that will stabilize faster will close its breaker to the common bus then the rest of the generators will
synchronized automatically and close their corresponding breakers to the bus. After all the generators have been
paralleled the power management feature.

System Interface
Interfacing is where the emergency power system is connected to another system.
Building Management System
This system monitors what output needed to be monitored during operation. (e.g. power consumption, voltage,
ampere)

Start-up, running and shutdown procedures


Here are the following guidelines regarding start-up, running and shutdown procedures.

Genset Checklist before start-up/testing


Check the Fuel Supply System:
1. Ensure that the vent on the fuel tank cap is not clogged or cleaning shall be done to make it clear.
2. Ensure that there is enough amount of diesel fuel which meets the specification required by the engine.
3. Check the fuel pipe and joint to fix leakage problems if there is any.

Check the Cooling System:


1. Ensure that there is enough cooling water in the radiator tank. If the water is insufficient, add soft water or potable
water to the tank.
2. Check the water pipe joints to fix leakage problems if there is any.

Check the Lubricant System:


1. Check the oil pipe joints to fix leakage problems if there is any.
2. Check the amount of oil in the oil pan. Pull out the dipstick beside the crank case to see whether the oil level is as
required. If the oil is too low, more oil shall be added. If the oil level is too high, careful analysis must be made to find
out the reasons. Usually, there are three kinds of reasons for excessive oil;1.) Too much oil is filled into lubricant
system. 2.) The diesel fuel intrudes into the crank case and dilutes the oil and 3.) The cooling water intrudes in the oil.

Check Electric Starting System:


1. Ensure that the connection terminals on the battery are not fouled or oxidized. If so, rub off the foul or scales.
2. Ensure that the electric contact pins on the starter motor and the solenoid provide good contact.
3. Ensure that there is no leakage in all section of the air pipes including joints.
4. Check the electrolyte indication, Green Dot means 65% or above state of charge, Dark means below 65% state of
charge and Yellow means low level of electrolyte need to replace a brand new.
5. Ensure the Generator Circuit Breaker of the old Generator has been securely switched-off before starting.

System Maintenance

Dealing with hazards, which may arise during maintenance.


Here are the following items needed to follow to prevent hazards during maintenance procedures.
1. Engine external inspection
Be sure to keep combustible materials away from the engine, especially from the hot engine parts such as exhaust
manifolds, or battery. Check fuel and oil leaks. Remove dust from the top surface of the battery. A fire can be caused
by combustible materials placed near hot engine parts. If any abnormality is found, be sure to repair it or contact your
local dealer.

2. Inspection and adjustment of belt and belt tension


If defects such as cuts or surface separators are found during inspection, replace the belt. Keep oil and grease away
from the belt. They may cause the belt to slip and shorten the service life. .

3. Inspection of damper
When installing a damper protective cover to the engine , do not use a cover that encloses the damper. It may cause
serious engine problems because the damper deteriorates by heat or not delivered enough its performance.

4. Inspection of fuel system


When handling fuel, make sure there are no open flames or other fire hazards near engine. Wipe off any spilled fuel
completely. Spilled fuel can ignite and cause fire.

5. Fuel tank cleaning


Use a fuel specified by the supplier. Do not refill the fuel tank more than specified level. Otherwise, fire may result.

6. Replacement of fuel filter


Filter damage or fuel leakage may occur and it cause fire hazard.

7. Inspection of fuel control link ball joint


If the sealed ball joints are found loosened, contact your dealer. If the seal is broken, the warranty is invalidated.

8. Replacement of Engine oil, oil filter and bypass oil filter


When draining engine oil, wear gloves. Hot engine and parts may cause burns.

9. Refilling of engine oil


If the engine oil refilling goes over the high marks on the oil level gauge, engine oil may blow out.

10. Inspection of engine oil for mixing of fuel and water


If the engine continues to operate with engine oil mixed with water, this will cause serious accidents such as seizing
of bearings.

11. Changing of governor oil filter


This activity may cause burns.

12. Checking and cleaning of radiators fins


When handling compressed air, wear safety goggles, a hardhat, gloves and necessary protective gear.

13. Draining water of exhaust muffler


Never touch the exhaust muffler by hand. It is very hot after operation.
Operation and Maintenance Manual
