Gasoline Generator

Engines, which are one of the most important parts of the generator, use various chemical, fossil and natural resources as fuel. These can generally be used in sources such as diesel, gasoline, natural gas, propane, lpg, as well as in natural sources due to the increasing environmental sensitivities today.

As the name suggests, Gasoline Generator is a type of generator that uses gasoline as fuel to run generator engines.

Gasoline generator engines are used to convert the chemical energy of gasoline into mechanical energy, just like the working principle of other generators. Mechanical energy from the motor is then transferred to power a moving component known as the rotor, which creates a moving magnetic field around a stationary component known as the stator. This magnetic field is eventually converted into electrical energy by means of the alternator, and the cycle is completed.

The biggest difference between gasoline engines and diesel engines is in simple terms; In gasoline engines, fuel (gasoline) and air are mixed and reach the combustion chamber. Here, an explosion occurs when the mixture compressed by the piston is ignited by the spark plug. In diesel engines, on the other hand, the fuel and air mixture is not filled into the piston. It's just air. Thanks to the higher pressure, an explosion occurs.

Gasoline generators can be used as a backup power system that provides electricity during a power outage caused by problems in the local electricity distribution system, or as the main power source in areas where there is no mains.

In common use; Because of the high fuel consumption, Gasoline Generators are preferred in small power groups, while diesel generators are preferred in large power generator groups. Small power groups, called portable or mobile generators, also have the feature of being easily transported. Commonly gasoline generators; As a power range, it can start from 1 kVa and go up to 22 kV.

Gasoline Generator Advantages;

* Reasonable price,

* Low noise operation and compactness,

* Easy starting in cold season, especially in frost (-40 °C),

* Easy maintenance, (clean or replace spark plugs, fuel hose and check oil and filter periodically)

* Being easily portable.

Gasoline Generator Disadvantages;

 

* Relatively high fuel consumption to diesel.

Gasoline Generator Usage Areas;

 

* House, summer house, chalet,

* Caravan and camping areas,

* Office, shop, small business places,

* Boats,

* Small scale industrial and household type machines and electrical household appliances.

Gasoline Generator Power Selection;

 

The gasoline generator must be strong enough to handle the load to be connected. The total load must be calculated by summing the power of all electrical devices to be connected to the generator at the same time. The collected power is multiplied by the inrush current factor. A 20% margin is always added to the resulting total as a guarantee. Using a generator with 80% capacity for the home ensures a long service life.

Generally;

* Generators up to 4 kW: These are small-sized four-stroke house hold generators with a capacity of 2500 W to 3900 W. It is compact, easy to carry and reasonably priced. They can easily brighten up a small house or office.

* Generators up to 6 kW: Capacities around 5 kW are the most common. They are suitable for a shop, office or a private home.

* Generators up to 9 kW: Allows the use of various electrical appliances, including heaters, air conditioners and water pumps. They can be used both in summer cottages or chalets, and in government offices, pharmacies, markets.

* Generators up to 12 kW: They can easily sustain a large house, office building or even a construction site.

In gasoline generators, there are options for manual or automatic operation, models with or without cabin, inverter models, recoil or electric starter operation, transfer panel, parallel connection, remote control, depending on the user's preference.
