How to Improve Your Generator's Fuel Efficiency?
This April, it's a great time to ensure your industrial generator is operating efficiently when it comes to fuel consumption. There are several ways you can help improve your generator's miles per gallon.
First, make sure the fuel itself is clean and has been stored properly to prevent contamination. Installing a high quality fuel filter can capture debris before it reaches the engine.
Next, check that routine maintenance like air filter changes and oil changes have been performed per the manufacturer's recommendations. Well-maintained generators see better fuel economy.
You'll also want to operate the generator at around 75% capacity when possible. Running too lightly or heavily can waste fuel. And consider installing a variable speed generator that can adjust its energy output to the current demand.
Finally, if your generator is more than 10 years old, an upgrade to a newer efficient model may pay for itself over time in fuel savings. Newer generators leverage better technology and design to sip fuel.
