Why Diesel Generators?


July 15th, 2009

Diesel generators have longer life when compared to other types of fuel (natural gas or gasoline). Acquisition and maintenance cost is less when compared to natural gas. Natural gas require spark ignition while diesel generators are operated by using compression ignition. There are two types of diesel generators. Open frame and closed frame. Closed frame are also known as “silent generators”.

Why do people prefer diesel power instead of gasoline? Gas engine power generators usually run around 1000 hours before being replaced or for repair purpose. But diesel engines generally run 20,000 hours before needing any service beyond routine maintenance.

Diesel is flammable and non-toxic. They are simpler in design than gas engines. Diesel generators require basic maintenance like changing the oil or changing the fuel, air and oil filters. But you don’t have to deal with tune-ups, no carburetor adjustments, no distributor or magneto to burn out and no spark plugs which require periodic cleaning and replacement.

    Great site here. Lots of blogs like yours cover subjects that can’t be found in print. I don’t know how we got on 10 years ago with just magazines and newspapers.
