What are the pitfalls of buying an MTU diesel generator set

1. Confuse KVA and KW. Sell KVA as KW and exaggerate power to customers. In fact, KVA is the apparent power, KW is the effective power, and the relationship between them is IKVA=0.8KW. Imported units are generally expressed in KVA power unit, and domestic electrical equipment is generally expressed in KW, so the power accounting should be converted into KW by 20% discount KVA.

2. Do not speak of long line (rated) power and backup power relationship, only say a "power", the backup power as long line power to sell to customers. In fact, backup power =1.1x long line power. Moreover, backup power can only be used for one hour out of 12 hours of continuous operation.

3. The diesel engine power and generator power configuration as large, in order to reduce the cost. In fact, the industry generally stipulates that diesel engine power ≥ generator power 10%, because there are mechanical losses. Worse, there are the diesel engine horsepower as kilowatt misreported to the user, and with less than the generator power of the diesel engine to configure the unit, commonly known as: small horse big car, as well as unit life reduced, frequent maintenance, high user fees.

4. Sell the refurbished second mobile phone as a new one to customers, and some refurbished diesel engines are equipped with a new generator and control cabinet, so that ordinary non-professional users can hardly tell whether it is a new one or an old one.

5. Only diesel engine or generator brand, do not report the origin, do not report the unit brand. Such as The United States Cummins, Sweden Volvo, Britain Stanford. In fact, any diesel generator set can not be completed by an enterprise alone. The customer should fully understand the manufacturer and brand of diesel engine, generator and control cabinet of the unit to comprehensively evaluate the grade of the unit.

6. Will not take the protection function (commonly known as four protection) unit as a complete protection function unit sold to customers. Even more, the instrument is not complete, without air switch units sold to customers. In fact, the industry generally provides that units of more than 10KW must take all instruments (commonly known as the five table) and air switch; Large units and automatic units must have self-four protection function.

7. Do not talk about diesel engine and generator brand grade, control system configuration, do not talk about after-sales service, only about the price and delivery date. Some will not power station special oil machine, such as: Marine diesel engine, vehicle diesel engine for generator set. The quality (voltage and frequency) of the terminal product of the unit cannot be guaranteed. Too low price unit generally have a problem, commonly known as: only buy wrong not sell wrong!

8. Do not talk about random accessories, such as with silencer, fuel tank, oil pipeline, with what grade battery, how much capacity battery, battery and so on. In fact, these annexes are so important that they must be stated in the contract. What's more, even the tank fan is not brought, so that customers can make their own open pool.

Diesel generator set is an important backup power supply equipment, purchase should be careful to be careful again, when using can be handy.
