Selection Of Engine Oil For Diesel Generator Set

The selection of engine oil for diesel generator sets needs to be considered according to the operating environment, workload, climate conditions and other factors of the unit

The following is an analysis of some common diesel generator oil models:

10W-40 type engine oil: suitable for units under cold weather conditions in winter. It has good fluidity and starting performance at low temperature, and can maintain good viscosity and lubricating performance at high temperature. It is suitable for light load, medium Loaded diesel generator set.

15W-40 type engine oil: suitable for units in most regions and usage conditions, it has good lubricating performance under different climatic conditions, suitable for medium-load and heavy-duty diesel generator sets.

20W-50 type engine oil: It is suitable for units under high temperature and dry climate conditions. It has good viscosity and lubricating performance in high temperature environments, and is suitable for heavy-duty and high-temperature diesel generator sets.

5W-40 type engine oil: suitable for units under low temperature and humid climate conditions. It has good fluidity and start-up performance in low temperature environments, and can maintain good viscosity and lubricity at high temperatures. It is suitable for low temperature, Light duty diesel generator set.

When choosing engine oil, you should also pay attention to the brand, model, viscosity and other factors of the engine oil, and replace it strictly according to the oil replacement cycle during use to ensure the normal operation of the unit.
