How to maintain the mining electric locomotive in summer?

Mining electric locomotives require daily maintenance and regular maintenance and overhaul to prolong their service life and maintain production efficiency. However, the environment is different throughout the year. Is there anything that should be paid special attention to in the summer for mining electric locomotives?

The biggest difference between summer and other seasons is the high temperature. Therefore, in addition to regular maintenance in summer, you also need to pay attention to the problems that may be caused by high temperature:

For example, electrical equipment may overheat during operation. The easiest solution is to temporarily stop and wait for the engine to cool down a bit. It is also possible to reduce and prevent the occurrence of air lock by improving ventilation conditions or adding a heat shield between the oil pipe and the engine. For better heat dissipation, the grease, dust, etc. on the motor and other places should be washed away, and each part can be cleaned with a cleaning agent that will not cause corrosion to the parts. At the same time, because the high temperature can easily cause the lubricating oil to become thinner and deteriorate, it is necessary to pay attention to the oil quantity and oil quality of the lubricating oil during daily maintenance, so as to avoid damage to the bearings.

The above are the places that should be paid more attention to when the mining electric locomotive is maintained in summer.
