What causes low oil pressure?

1 comments:
Mr. Anderson
May 23, 2025

Low oil pressure in a Bison BS-20KVA can be caused by:

1. Excessively low oil level or poor/thin oil quality.
2. Broken oil pipe, loose pipe joint, or damaged oil pressure gauge causing leakage.
3. Deformation or breakage of the oil pump pressure adjustment spring.
4. Excessively large clearance in the oil pump.
5. Broken oil pump gasket.
6. Excessively large clearance between bearings.
7. Loose or leaking plug screw in the oil passage.

    ③ Generally, the ideal temperature difference between the inlet and outlet of the water tank is within 6-10℃. The wind velocity is 6-10m/s. The speed of fan blade rim must not exceed 90m/s. The effective cooling air volume required by the diesel engines at power station is 1.1-1.4 m3/min•kW. And the area of the water tank facing the wind is 0.35-0.40/m2/100Kw.

    (2) Supercharged inter-cooler. Select the supercharged inter-cooler in accordance with the air inlet flow rate and heat taken away by the supercharged air. Under standard environment, the air temperature getting into the diesel engine through the inter-cooler should be within 45-50℃, which is specified in the emission requirements.

    10. Engine Operation 10.1 Preparation before engine start (1) Selection of diesel Sulphur content of the diesel will directly determine the emission of engine. Please use diesel compliance with the sulfur content requirements of emission. Users should choose proper grade of diesel according to the ambient temperature. At low temperature in winter, diesel with low freezing point is recommended to use.

    In addition, lubricating oil must be kept clean to avoid confusion of lubricating oil of different grades. (3) Selection of cooling liquids Like fuel and lubricating oil, cooling liquid is also crucial for diesel engine. Correct selection of cooling liquids and proper maintenance of cooling system can prevent many failures concerned with the cooling system, such as overheat of diesel engine, leakage of coolant pump, blockage of radiator and cavitation erosion of cylinder liner.

For supercharged diesel engine, a certain period of operation without load before engine shut-down can protect the supercharger from damage due to hot load. (2) If anti-freezing agent is not used at a temperature lower than 5℃, drain coolant promptly after engine is shut down to prevent damage of engine block.
