System Notes — FUEL SYSTEM
The fuel system covers the injection pump, injectors, fuel transfer pump, filters and water separator, lines and the tank. It meters and atomises diesel at the precise moment and quantity the engine needs. Modern CAT engines run very tight injector tolerances, so the group is sensitive to water and dirt: a worn injector dribbles instead of atomising, causing rough idle, white smoke and diluted oil, while a clogged filter starves the pump under load. Parts here are replaced when the engine misfires, smokes, loses power under load, or when the water separator keeps tripping — always after the fuel quality itself has been ruled out.
System Notes — GENERATORS
The generators group covers the alternator end of a generator set: stator, rotor, exciter, bearings, coupling disc, terminal box and the voltage regulation hardware. It converts engine rotation into electrical output at a held voltage and frequency. Bearing wear and insulation degradation are the two long-term concerns — a bearing that starts to rumble will eventually seize and take the rotor with it, while moisture and heat slowly break down winding insulation. Parts in this group are replaced when vibration rises, when insulation resistance falls on a megger test, or when output voltage becomes unstable under load.
