Al p charge mix mean elect. Engine power alarm solve
1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
May 11, 2025
The "Al P-Charge Mix" alarm indicates a difference in mixture pressures between sides A and B that is too high. This can lead to a red alarm and engine shutdown. The causes may include malfunctioning restrictor flaps, leakage in mixture lines, or faulty sensors and cabling.

4.4 Control, starting and stopping sequences NOTICE Risk of engine damage due to incorrect action. Risk of severe damage to property! • Ensure engine is ready for operation before starting. See engine documentation. Starting and stopping sequences The starting sequence is software-controlled and depends on the place of start command input. To ensure that no mixture is in the engine when ignition is switched on or off, which is a specific requirement for gas engines, special procedures for engine start / stop are specified.
Page 43
Emergency stopping sequence If an emergency stop command is activated, the following steps are carried out automatically: 1. Closing gas supply solenoid valves 2. Closing mixture throttles 3. Engine running down to standstill 4. Deactivating ignition 5. Requesting external ventilation by contact Restarting after emergency stop A scavenging phase and a request for external ventilation by contact ensue following a start request after emergency shutdown.
4.5 Engine – Start Preconditions ☑ Generator is not connected to network. ☑ Start interlock is not active. DANGER Rotating and moving engine parts. Risk of crushing, danger of parts of the body being caught or pulled in! • Before cranking the engine with starter system, make sure that there are no persons in the engine's danger zone.
4.6 Operational checks DANGER Components are moving or rotating. Risk of crushing, danger of parts of the body being caught or pulled in! • Operate the engine at low load only. Keep clear of the danger zone of the engine. WARNING High level of engine noise when the engine is running.
Special tools, Material, Spare parts Designation / Use Part No. Qty. Gas detection and alarm unit (not stocked by MTU) WARNING Engine operation at high load/speed when measuring emissions. Risk of injury! • Conduct measuring in a room which offers safe protection from the engine if at all possible. If this is not feasible, keep the greatest possible distance away when measuring, e.g.

Remedy the cause, re-enable starting Item Measure Engine control system Determine cause for emergency stop and take remedial action; if the fault cannot be corrected, contact Service. Fault acknowledgment is possible in engine stop mode only . Automatic se- lection and remote start immediately following an emergency engine stop is not admissible.
If the engine is to remain out of service for more than 1 month, carry out preservation (→ MTU Preservation and Represerva- tion Specifications A001070/..). The corrosion-inhibiting effect of the engine coolant may be used as an alter- native in case of out-of-service periods lasting for more than 1 month, by run- ning the engine for at least 2 hours at rated power once a month.
5 Maintenance 5.1 50-hours check 50-hours check One-time operations to be carried out after a test run or after the first 10 to 50 operating hours of the cylin- der head (with a new engine, after installation of new cylinder heads, after component maintenance or ex- tended component maintenance).
