Teach you how to solve the black smoke from the engine

There are many types of black smoke from the engine, such as: ①The machine has black smoke in a single action. It just smokes. ③Everything is normal when the high throttle is working, but it doesn’t work. When parking, the speed car will emit black smoke, and it feels like the car is back. ④320c does not have intercooler, and the 5–8 gear is off Speed is about 250, the empty bucket action is full of black smoke, the oil temperature and the water temperature are not high. The diesel tank is cleaned, the fuel grid is changed, the diesel pipe is changed, the air filter is changed, the diesel pump, the nozzle is adjusted, the circuit is normal, and the hydraulic flow is Turn it down, the black smoke remains, the engine exhaust pipe is airless, the hydraulic action is exhausted, and the speed is lower, and the black smoke is also smaller.

On construction sites, we often see black smoke from excavators. Everyone also knows that the essence of black smoke from engines is insufficient combustion. The reasons are roughly divided into poor air intake system, hydraulic pump power exceeding the engine, and the engine. Itself malfunctions, etc.
It is not enough to know the reason, we must find the most effective solution, because the black smoke from the excavator seems to be a small problem, but if it is not dealt with in time, it may induce the excavator to burn oil and even cause the engine to be damaged and overhauled.

Failure phenomenon
1. The black smoke phenomenon caused by insufficient air intake or leakage of the intake pipe. Due to the long-term use of the excavator, the aging and damage of the intake hose and the pipe clamp will cause the pipe to leak, suck in large dust, and block the air cooler, etc., which will cause black Smoke phenomenon. If this kind of problem occurs, it should be dealt with in time, otherwise the engine will experience early wear and tear, or even pull cylinders and other failures.

2. If the engine emits a lot of black smoke and the power drop is relatively large, it is necessary to check whether there is oil leakage in the intake pipe of the turbocharger, the turbine wheel of the turbocharger, and whether the blades are broken, worn, or deformed. , Whether there is scratch damage in the turbocharger housing, and whether the impeller shaft clearance exceeds 3 mm.
If these phenomena occur, the turbocharger must be replaced.

3. Check whether the diesel pump and fuel injector are worn out and caused by black smoke. The excavator is still powerful when the engine is emitting black smoke, but the engine speed will drop (over 200 rpm).
This phenomenon is mainly due to the failure of the diesel nozzle (cylinder-breaking experiment can be used to check the quality of the injector).If the excavator usually emits black smoke and it is difficult to start, it needs to be filled with starter fluid.This phenomenon requires checking the diesel pump.

4. If the engine EGR valve is damaged or stuck, it will also cause black smoke. If the EGR valve fails, an alarm will appear on the display. If the fault occurs, it should be replaced in time, otherwise it will affect the efficiency of the engine, and it can obviously feel that it consumes more fuel than normal work.

5. The excavator is weak when the engine emits black smoke, and there is a change of sound when the engine is working under load. At this time, it is likely that the power of the hydraulic pump exceeds the power of the engine to cause black smoke. At this time, first reduce the flow and pressure of the hydraulic pump.If the fault still exists after the hydraulic pump is adjusted to the normal value, then the engine fuel system must be checked.If the flow and pressure of the hydraulic pump cannot be reduced, then the hydraulic system components need to be checked.

Summary of black smoke failure of excavator engine:
Although the phenomenon of black smoke from the engine is very difficult, in the final analysis, the reasons for the failure are these. When checking and handling, you must comprehensively observe the failure phenomenon in order to make the most accurate judgment.
