8 reasons for the engine speed drop of the excavator, 6 solutions are here!

As the name suggests, engine speed drop means the failure of the engine speed drop during the operation of the excavator. There are two manifestations of speed drop, one is a slight speed drop within 200 revolutions, and the other is a serious speed drop above 300 revolutions, which is likely to cause the excavator to suddenly shut down. There are 8 main reasons for the engine speed drop of the excavator.

1. The diesel oil circuit of the excavator is faulty. Generally speaking, when the diesel oil circuit is blocked, it may cause the speed drop phenomenon.

2. The hydraulic system of the excavator has a fault, so that the hydraulic pump cannot change the displacement normally, causing the system pressure to be too high, and the speed drop may also cause a machine failure.

3. The output power of the excavator engine itself is insufficient, the output power is lower than the rated power, and the speed is too low. There is also a problem with the main pump.

4. The engine uses fuel of poor quality or the water content of the fuel is too high, which will lead to insufficient engine power and speed drop.

5. When the air intake system leaks or is blocked, the engine will be short of air supply, resulting in incomplete combustion of fuel, and there will be speed drop and black smoke failure.

6. Due to the large gap of the solenoid valve, the fuel supply is insufficient, which causes the engine to drop.

7. The joint of the fuel supply circuit of the fuel system is loose or the pipeline is broken, causing fuel leakage or foreign matter blockage, resulting in insufficient fuel supply. In addition to speed drop, it may also cause flameout.

8. There are many reasons for speed drop, such as incorrect valve clearance, wrong injection timing, damaged turbocharger, faulty brakes, etc.

Having said so many reasons for the speed drop of the excavator engine, what should we do when the speed drop occurs?
The solutions are all here!

1. First, check whether the diesel used in the excavator is deteriorated, whether there are impurities in the oil, and whether the oil circuit is blocked.

2. Check the valve clearance of the excavator engine and the speed of the engine.

3. Check the intake pipeline, clean the air pre-filter and air filter element, and start the engine again.

4. Check whether the speed drop of the excavator occurs when the engine is under load?

5. Carefully check the engine to see if the engine failure causes the speed drop of the excavator engine.

6. In addition, the electronic control, hydraulic system, fuel system, etc. need to be checked.

Regular lubrication can reduce wear, prevent corrosion, and extend the service life of each component of the excavator.

Regularly changing the engine oil helps maintain the lubrication performance of the engine, prevent wear and extend the service life.

The steps for replacing the seal are to stop the machine, release the system pressure, remove the pump, replace the seal, reinstall the pump and check the operation.

1. Chain off caused by tension cylinder failure
At this time, you should check whether you have forgotten to butter the tension cylinder and see if there is any oil leakage in the tension cylinder.

2. Chain off caused by severe wear of the crawler
If used for a long time, the crawler will definitely be worn, and the wear of the chain ribs, chain barrels and other parts on the crawler will also cause the crawler chain off.

3. Chain off caused by wear of the chain guard
Now almost all excavator crawlers have chain guards, and chain guards can play a very important role in preventing chain off, so it is also very important to check whether the chain guard is worn.

4. Chain off caused by wear of the drive motor ring gear
For the drive motor ring gear, if it is severely worn, we need to replace it, which is also an important reason for the excavator chain off.

5. Chain off caused by damage to the sprocket wheel
Generally speaking, oil leakage of the sprocket wheel oil seal of the excavator will cause severe wear of the sprocket wheel, which will cause the crawler chain off. The public account Zhizao Daguan focuses on sharing relevant theoretical knowledge in the engineering machinery manufacturing industry.

6. Chain derailment caused by guide wheel damage
When checking the track guide wheel, check whether the screws on the guide wheel are missing or broken. Check whether the groove of the guide wheel is deformed.
