Experience with Diesel Gen Set Failures
Experience with Diesel Gen Set Failures
(OP)
What is the experinece out there in regards to the diesel generators failures due:
a) Fire in the exhauts during load bank test operations
b) Backfiring.
I have had cases were we have suffered contingencies of that sort and when contacting the manufacturers of diesel gen sets they are telling me that they do not have history of these type of issues ???? Come On !!.
I have had three problems in two years and these guys instead of helping us clarify why ? did the contingency happen they seem to try to cover up.
Any experience out there on failures or maybe how to analyze these.
