How to maintain the oil water separator of excavator engine correctly

Pay attention to the importance of oil water separator when working on small excavators


Why should small excavators pay attention to the importance of oil-water separators? Is there anything special to pay attention to here?


Everyone knows that the engine oil water separator is an important component of excavator components. If the oil water separator fails, it can cause a series of faults such as abnormal smoke emission, valve carbon accumulation, and engine power reduction in the excavator engine. In severe cases, it may lead to engine damage. Therefore, regular maintenance and upkeep of the oil water separator is still important. Today, the manufacturer of Shanzhong excavator will talk to you about the correct maintenance methods for the oil water separator of the excavator engine.


Some people may not understand the importance of oil-water separators, and we should pay attention to the oil-water separation and drainage of small excavators. These two points are very important for the operation of the equipment. Let's analyze these two points and focus on where to start. Shandong Shitian Heavy Industry Company teaches you.


Regarding the regular drainage of small excavators: It is recommended to check the moisture in the oil-water separation every day and drain it regularly. There are usually red buoys in the oil-water separator. The density of the buoy is between diesel and water, so it floats on the water surface and is located at the bottom of the diesel.


Regarding the alarm of the small excavator oil-water separator: If there is water in the oil-water separator, it should be discharged in a timely manner; If it does not mean that the equipment itself is not damaged, it is necessary to check for defects in other aspects, etc.
