3 Use requirements and operation steps of NPT gas genset


3.1 Gas fuel, lube and coolant requirements
●Gas fuel
Nature gas :LHV should more than 31.4 MJ/m3, pressure range 10-100kPa.
Marsh gas: LHV should more than 23.5 MJ/m3, pressure range 10-100kPa.Marsh gas
should dry processed and desulfurization.Sulfer should less than 200mg/m3.

Warning:
In order to improve gas engine thermal efficiency, Engine design with high compressed
ratio. Nature gas engine only burn NG or methane .Never use propane.Because
Propane and methane have different chemical character .The octane number of Propane is
lower
●Lube than
oilmethane. Easily caused engine knocking even damaged .
Quality class: Oil is classified according to its quality and characteristics, usually on the
basis of API and GB standard.
Oil which is allowed to use
API class: CC、CD、CD-Ⅱ、CE
GB class: CC、CD、CD-Ⅱ、CE
CD class oil should be selected for non-supercharged gas engines while the CF class oil
for the supercharged ones. It is allowable for the low-quality oil to be replaced with
high-quality oil.

●Viscosity
The viscosity of the oil is , to a great extent, determined by the temperature. Refer to
figure for appropriate oil viscosity class(SAE class).
Please refer to the right figure for the oil viscosity and select the most appropriate oil. The
situation where the environment temperature is close to the temperature limit will have some
influence on the cold start performance but not necessarily damage the engine.
Do not exceed the temperature limit for long time so as to keep the abrasion within a minimum
extent. Multi-class oil could be used so that it won’t be necessary to change the oil during the
seasonal alternation period. The fuel consumption rate could be lowered by using multi-class
oil (light oil especially)

Fig15 Lube oil

Notice:●It is recommended to use 15W/40 oil when the environment temperature


is above –15℃ and use 5W/30 when it is below –15℃.
●Better use lube oil special for NG engine due to gas engine rigorous lubrication.

●Coolant
Coolant of gas engine should be soft water adding anticorrosive agent and long effect
anti-freezing coolant. Anti-freezing coolant and soft water are shown in table 6 to table 7.
