Selection requirements for fire standby diesel generator sets

The use of electricity has gradually occupied an indispensable position in contemporary life. As people's awareness of fire prevention continues to increase, fire safety has become more and more important. In the event of a mains power failure, the backup fire-fighting diesel generator can be started in an emergency to ensure normal power supply. Therefore, real estate developers or property owners need to configure diesel generators to prepare for emergencies, such as fires, earthquakes, typhoons, etc., fire protection Backup diesel generators play an important role in replacing paralyzed power supply systems. So, what are the basic requirements for choosing a fire standby diesel generator set?

1. Fire hydrants, fire hoses, fire water guns, as well as oil fire extinguishers, dry powder fire extinguishers and gas fire extinguishers should be equipped outside the diesel generator room as required. Pay attention to setting eye-catching safety icons and text prohibiting fireworks.

2. Keep a safe distance between the unit and the oil or oil depot, and set up isolation measures.

3. The generator set should be at least one meter away from buildings and other equipment, and the machine room should be kept ventilated.

4. Firefighting diesel generator sets should be reasonably selected based on the power requirements of the required power supply equipment.

5. The unit should have multiple protection functions, such as short-circuit protection, overload protection, overvoltage protection, undervoltage protection, automatic unit shutdown protection, etc., to improve the safety of fire-fighting diesel generator sets as the main equipment for ensuring power supply for fire-fighting equipment.

6. The self-contained emergency generator set should be equipped with a quick automatic start and automatic power switching device, and should have the function of three consecutive self-starts. For Class I high-rise buildings, the self-starting switching time shall not exceed 30 seconds. For other buildings, manual starting devices can also be used when automatic starting is difficult. The unit should generally be started electrically and not with compressed air. The total number of generator sets should not exceed 2, and the capacity of a single unit is generally 800kW and below.

7. In the event of a fire emergency, the fire-fighting diesel generator set needs to have continuous and stable power supply capability, and no power outage or failure can occur.

8. Firefighting diesel generator sets need to be selected according to the required power supply load power, and it is best to leave a certain amount of redundancy to ensure safe and reliable power supply.

9. The fire-fighting diesel generator set should choose a model that meets the backup power supply standard. While ensuring the main power supply, it can switch to the backup power supply in time to ensure continuous and stable power supply.

10. Choose a manufacturer with a complete after-sales service system and professional technical support to ensure the long-term stable operation of the fire-fighting diesel generator set.

The requirements and selection of fire-fighting diesel generator sets need to be selected and used according to actual needs and relevant standards to ensure reliable power supply for fire-fighting equipment.
