Starting system
Cranking torque and starting time is affected by the
following:
A. Auxiliary loads vary depending upon the type of
application. The auxiliary torque curve will affect the
time to accelerate cranking speed.
B.Fuel with low energy content will need more time to
crank because of slower burning and erratic firing.
C.Colder ambient temperature increase starting torque
requirement. Glow plugs and/or ether starting aids are
recommended when temperatures fall below certain
levels, refer O & M. Install jacket water heaters to
maintain the jacket water at a temperature high enough
to allow for easy starting of the engine.
D.Increased lube oil viscosity because of cold conditions,
increase starting torque demand and in turn increasing
starting time. Lube heaters may used if required.
E. Parasitic loads affect stating torque needs.
F. Batteries supplied with genset are generally dry and
uncharged. First charging of uncharged batteries is
very important and should be done from authorized
battery charging center. It takes about 72-80 hours to
completely charge a new battery.
