Testing And Adjusting

Usage:

Introduction

The specifications given in this book are on the basis of information available at the time the book was written. These specifications give the torques, operating pressure, measurements of new parts, adjustments and other items that will affect the service of the product.

When the words "use again" are in the description, the specification given can be used to determine if a part can be used again. If the part is equal to or within the specification given, use the part again.

When the word "permissible" is in the description, the specification given is the "maximum or minimum" tolerance permitted before adjustment, repair and/or new parts are needed.

A comparison can be made between the measurements of a worn part, and the specifications of a new part to find the amount of wear. A part that is worn can be safe to use if an estimate of the remainder of its service life is good. If a short service life is expected, replace the part.

NOTE: The specifications given for "use again" and "permissible" are intended for guidance only and Caterpillar Tractor Co. hereby expressly denies and excludes any representation, warranty or implied warranty of the reuse of any component.

NOTE: This engine uses bolts (3/8 inch size only) with washer heads in some locations. The washer head bolt does not need a plain washer, lockwasher or lockplate. Where these bolts are used on aluminum covers or housings, a plain washer is needed. If you are not sure a washer is used under a bolt head, use the Parts Book to see if a washer is needed.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting can be difficult. On the following pages there is a list of possible problems. To make a repair to a problem, make reference to the cause and correction.

This list of problems, causes, and corrections, will only give an indication of where a possible problem can be, and what repairs are needed. Normally, more or other repair work is needed beyond the recommendations in the list. Remember that a problem is not normally caused only by one part, but by the relation of one part with other parts. This list can not give all possible problems and corrections. The serviceman must find the problem and its source, then make the necessary repairs.

Engine Speed Measurement

Tachometer Drive


TACHOMETER DRIVE
A. Location for tachometer drive adapter.

Most engines have a location where a tachometer drive adapter can be installed. Install an adapter. Then connect it to the tachometer in the 4S6553 Engine Test Group, the 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter or the 1P5500 Portable Phototach Group.

NOTE: On some engines the service meter must be removed.

4S6553 Engine Test Group


4S6553 ENGINE TEST GROUP
1. 4S6992 Differential Pressure Gauges. 2. Zero adjustment screw. 3. Lid. 4. 8M2743 Gauge. 5. Pressure tap fitting. 6. 4S6991 Tachometer. 7. 4S6997 Manifold Pressure Gauge.

Special Instruction Form SEHS7341 is with the 4S6553 Engine Test Group. It has instructions on how to use the group.

1P5500 Portable Phototach Group


1P5500 PORTABLE PHOTOTACH GROUP

The 1P5500 Portable Phototach Group can measure engine speed from the tachometer drive on the engine. It can also measure the speed of the engine parts (fan, flywheel, etc.) that have rotation. For the best accuracy the rpm of the part that is measured must be the same as the rpm of the engine. Special Instruction Form SMHS7015 has instructions on how to use the group.

5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter


5P2150 ENGINE HORSEPOWER METER

The 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter can measure engine speed from the tachometer drive on the engine. Special Instruction Form SMHS7050 has instructions for this procedure. It can also measure the engine speed from the signal made by a magnetic pickup when the teeth of the flywheel go by it.

The flywheel housing has an opening for timing the engine. An adapter and magnetic pickup can be installed at this location.

With the engine stopped, turn magnetic pickup (2) clockwise until it just has contact with a tooth (5). Turn it counterclockwise 1/2 of a revolution. Tighten locknut (4). This will give .022 to .033 in. (0.56 to 0.84 mm) clearance between the flywheel teeth and the magnetic pickup.

Some flywheel housings have a location for installation of a magnetic pickup for use with a electronic speed switch. If there is a magnetic pickup for use with an electronic speed switch already installed, its signal can be used with the 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter. The operation of the magnetic pickup is the same for any of the installations.

The signal from the magnetic pickup is an AC voltage. Every tooth on the flywheel makes the signal have one cycle. The 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter has an electronic counter. It can count the number of hertz in the signal from the magnetic pickup.


NOTICE

It is necessary to install a resistor in series with one of the wires from the magnetic pickup to prevent damage to the circuits in the 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter. The magnetic pickup shown for testing has the correct resistance.



INSTALLATION OF MAGNETIC PICKUP
1. Clearance. 2. Magnetic pickup. 3. Wires. 4. Locknut. 5. Flywheel gear teeth. 6. Adapter.

On engines with an electronic speed switch, the signal from its magnetic pickup is strong enough to operate the electronic speed switch and the electronic counter at the same time. Connect the input wires from the 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter to the "SIG" and "COM" terminals on the electronic speed switch. Install the 1.5 megohm resistor in series with one of the input wires. The minimum voltage input to the electronic counter is 1.5 volts. If the voltage is too low make an adjustment to the magnetic pickup to get the minimum voltage.


MAGNETIC PICKUP FOR TESTING
2. Magnetic pickup. 7. 1.5 megohm resistor (5 or 10%) soldered in series with one of the wires. 8. Photo plug.

When the 5P2150 Engine Horsepower Meter is used with the magnetic pickup it does not show engine speed directly. This is because the signal from the magnetic pickup has more cycles per revolution of the engine than the standard tachometer generator. The signal from the standard tachometer generator has ten cycles for each revolution of the engine. The signal from the magnetic pickup has one cycle for each flywheel gear tooth. For example, if the flywheel gear has 113 teeth, there are 113 cycles for each revolution of the engine. The number that the meter shows is larger by a factor of 113 ÷ 10 or 11.3. This factor is the factor for the flywheel gear.

At lower engine speeds, the number on the meter divided by the factor for the flywheel gear gives the engine speed. At high engine speeds the number is too big (five digits) for the meter. The meter shows the last four digits. Find the first digit in the chart. Look at the chart for the approximate engine rpm. The chart has the correct meter reading for that engine rpm according to the number of flywheel gear teeth. If the number has more than four digits, put the first digit from the chart with the number which is shown on the meter. Divide this number by the factor for the flywheel gear. The result is the actual engine rpm. Remember that a change of 1 rpm in engine speed makes a change of 11.3 in the rpm shown on the meter.

Tachometer In Control Panel

Use the tachometer on the control panel, if so equipped.

Frequency Meter

If the engine is a drive for a generator with a frequency meter, use the frequency meter to measure the engine speed. If the frequency meter shows 60 hertz the engine speed is 1800 rpm. If the meter shows 50 hertz the speed is 1500 rpm.

1. Lever. 2. Rod assembly. 3. Lever. 4. Governor output shaft. A. Angle. B. Angle.

1. When governor output shaft (4) is in the SHUTOFF position angle (B), between lever (3) and horizontal, must be 60°.

2. Keep lever (3) at SHUTOFF. Adjust rod assembly (2) so that when it is connected to lever (1) angle (A), between the lever and horizontal, is 40° 2'.

3. Check to make sure the linkage operates freely.

Needle Valve Adjustment

1. Start the engine and let it run at the desired speed until the coolant temperature is normal.

2. Turn compensating needle valve (2) two or three turns counterclockwise. Let the engine hunt for about 30 seconds. This lets air out of the hydraulic circuit in the governor.

3. Turn the needle valve slowly clockwise until the engine speed has stability. Put a near full load on the engine. Again turn the needle valve slowly clockwise until the engine speed has stability.

NOTE: 1/4 turn out from the seat is the approximate point of best stability.

4. To check the adjustment turn lever (1) counterclockwise to decrease engine speed. Release the lever. The engine must return rapidly to the desired speed.

5. If the engine hunts more than a small amount before it has stability turn the needle valve clockwise. If the engine is slow to return to the desired speed turn the needle valve counterclockwise. Do steps 4 and 5 until the engine returns to the desired speed and has stability in the shortest amount of time.

3. Use knurled knob (2) or synchronizing motor (1) to adjust the engine to the desired speed.

NOTE: Early models use a manual adjustment screw.

4. Turn stop screw (4) clockwise until it stops. Tighten locknut (3).

5. If the engine speed is still correct, the adjustment is correct.

Check Speed Droop

The speed droop can be adjusted between zero and seven percent. The desired speed droop will be different for different applications. Percent of speed droop is the percent difference between the engine speed at no load and full load. To calculate speed droop use the formula:

1. Get the desired speed droop for the application.

2. Multiply the full load speed by the desired speed droop. Add the number from this multiplication to the full load speed to get the no load speed.

3. Start the engine and let it run until the temperature of the coolant is normal.

4. Adjust the engine speed to get the no load speed from Step 2.

5. Connect a known load to the engine. The load must be less than the full capacity of the engine. Make a record of the decrease in engine speed.

6. Make a ratio between the load on the engine and the full load capacity of the engine. This ratio must be the same as the ratio between the decrease in engine speed from Step 5 and the number from the multiplication in Step 2. For example:

7. If the ratios are not the same an adjustment of the speed droop is necessary. Remove the load and stop the engine. If the engine speed decreased too much according to the ratio decrease the amount of speed droop. If the decrease in engine speed is not enough increase the amount of speed droop. See SPEED DROOP ADJUSTMENT.

Speed Droop Adjustment (Later PSG Governors)

1. Make a mark on cover (1) to show the original position of bracket (3). This will show how much a change in bracket position changes the speed droop.

2. Loosen knob (2) that holds bracket (3) and speed droop lever (4) in position.

3. To increase the speed droop turn lever (4) counterclockwise. To decrease the speed droop turn lever (4) clockwise.

NOTE: If the lever is turned clockwise beyond the point where the speed droop is zero the engine will hunt a large amount and will not get stability.

4. Tighten knob (2) to hold the lever and bracket in position. After an adjustment is made check the speed droop. See CHECK SPEED DROOP. Several adjustments can be necessary to get the desired speed droop.

5. When lever (4) is in the position that gives the desired speed droop, set stop screw (5) against the pin on lever (4). This will make it easy to return the speed droop lever to the desired position after disassembly and assembly of the governor.

2. There are four terminals on the actuator. They have marks "A", "B", "C" and "D". Connect the probes of an ohmmeter between terminals "A" and "B". Put a jumper wire between terminals "C" and "D".

3. If the coil resistance is not 30 to 40 ohms make a replacement of the actuator.

Potentiometer Adjustment (Parallel Or Nonparallel Control)


2301 PARALLEL CONTROL
1. Speed potentiometer. 2. Stability potentiometer. 3. Gain potentiometer. 4. Ramp time potentiometer. 5. Low speed potentiometer. 6. Load gain potentiometer. 7. Droop potentiometer. 8. De-droop potentiometer. 9. Load signal jacks.

Speed Potentiometer

Turn speed potentiometer (1) clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the full load rpm of the engine.

Stability and Gain Potentiometers

1. Connect a DC voltmeter to terminals 16 (-) and 17 (+) on the parallel control [terminals 5 (-) and 6 (+) on the nonparallel control].

2. Start the engine. Run the engine until the coolant temperature is normal.

3. Turn gain potentiometer (3) clockwise until the voltmeter does not have stability.

4. Turn stability potentiometer (2) either direction until the voltmeter has stability.

5. Do Steps 3 and 4 several times until the stability potentiometer will not give the voltmeter stability.

6. Turn the gain potentiometer a small amount counterclockwise. Adjust the stability potentiometer as necessary.

Ramp Time Potentiometer

Turn ramp time potentiometer (4) clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the amount of time it takes the engine to accelerate from low idle to full load rpm.

Low Speed Potentiometer

1. Make sure there is an open between terminals 14 and 15 (terminals 9 and 10 on the nonparallel control).

2. Turn low speed potentiometer clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the low idle rpm.

Load Gain Potentiometer

NOTE: Stability and gain potentiometers must be correctly adjusted first.

1. Put the probes of a voltmeter in the load signal jacks (9).

2. Run the engine in single unit operation until the coolant temperature is normal.

3. Put a full load on the generator. Adjust load gain potentiometers until the load signal reading on the voltmeter is 8V. If it is not possible to put a full load on the generator keep the ratio between the load and the voltage signal constant. For example: if the load on the generator is 1/2 of its rated capacity adjust the load gain potentiometer to get a load signal of 4V.

4. Do Steps 1, 2 and 3 to all the units in the system. The load signal for each unit in the system must be the same.

5. If any of the units in the system have stability problems at this load gain setting, decrease the setting for each unit a small amount. Keep the load signal for each unit in the system the same.

6. If the load signal at full load is decreased to 3V in Step 5 and the system still has a stability problem do the steps that follow.

7. Parallel all of the units in the systems at no load.

8. If the system has instability turn the stability potentiometer of each unit one mark counterclockwise. Do this until the system has stability.

9. Put a load on the system. If the system has instability turn the stability potentiometer of each unit one mark counterclockwise. Do this until the system has stability.

NOTE: The generator voltage regulator response may be too fast. Use a manual voltage regulator. If this stops the instability, slow down the response of the generator voltage regulator.

Droop Potentiometer

The amount of speed droop adjustment available will vary with the application from 0 to 13%. The desired speed droop will be different for different applications. Speed droop is the percent difference between the engine speed at no load and full load. To calculate speed droop use the formula:

1. Get the desired speed droop for the application.

2. Multiply the full load speed by the desired speed droop. Add the number from this multiplication to the full load speed to get the no load speed.

3. Run the engine until the coolant temperature is normal.

4. Adjust the engine speed to get the no load speed for Step 2.

5. Connect a known load to the engine. The load must be less than the full capacity of the engine. Make a record of the decrease in engine speed.

NOTE: Load on engine or load on generator can be used.

6. Make a ratio between the load on the engine and the full load capacity of the engine. This ratio must be the same as the ratio between the decrease in engine speed from Step 5 and the number from the multiplication in Step 2.

7. If the ratios are not the same an adjustment of the speed droop is necessary. Remove the load and stop the engine. If the engine speed decreases too much according to the ratio, decrease the amount of speed droop. If the decrease in engine speed is not enough increase the amount of speed droop.

8. Turn droop potentiometer (7) clockwise to increase or counterclockwise to decrease the amount of speed droop.

De-Droop Potentiometer

1. Set the system for isochronous operation at the desired rpm. Droop potentiometer at zero droop.

2. Put the maximum available load on the unit, up to 100% of rated capacity.

3. If there is a change in rpm use the de-droop potentiometer to return the engine to the desired rpm.

Air/Fuel Ratio Control

1. Check the fuel rack setting. Make reference to FUEL RACK SETTING The fuel rack setting must be correct before the adjustment for the hydraulic air/fuel ratio control can be checked or changed.

2. Remove the cover (3) from the hydraulic air/fuel ratio control.
