8.3 Cleaning the condenser<br />
Risk of electric shock at live connections!<br />
Prior to inspection and maintenance<br />
work, electrically isolate the recooling<br />
unit from the electrical supply.<br />
The entire condenser is covered in a dirt-repellent,<br />
easy-to-clean RiNano coating. In many applications,<br />
therefore, the use of filter media is unnecessary,<br />
particularly with dry dusts.<br />
To ensure the correct function of the recooling unit,<br />
the fins on the air-cooled condenser must be kept<br />
clean. Cleaning must be undertaken at regular intervals<br />
of at least once a year; the frequency of cleaning<br />
depends on the degree of soiling in the rooms<br />
where the unit is installed.<br />
Risk of injury due to sharp-edged condenser<br />
fins! Use gloves as personal<br />
protection equipment.<br />
The hot gas pipe inside the unit can<br />
reach a temperature of approx. 60°C.<br />
Wait approx. 10 min. after you have<br />
switched off the unit to allow the pipe to<br />
cool down.<br />
Fig. 30 Cleaning the condenser (shown here: 3320.6xx<br />
and 3334.6xx)<br />
Deactivate the unit by switching off the power supply<br />
to the higher level control and secure against<br />
switching back on.<br />
Remove the louvred grille (2) Fig. 30 on the front of<br />
the recooling unit.<br />
Caution!<br />
Risk of damage for the condenser fins<br />
due to powerful compressed air!<br />
Use the compressed air carefully to<br />
avoid damage.<br />
Clean the condenser (1) Fig. 30 with compressed<br />
air.<br />
8 Inspection and maintenance<br />
Ambient air containing oil:<br />
Ambient air containing oil in conjunction with dust<br />
will result in increased soiling of the condenser fins.<br />
Thorough cleaning with compressed air is not possible<br />
in this case.<br />
We recommend sending the unit in for cleaning or<br />
requesting service.<br />
8.4 Cleaning the filter mat (optional)<br />
For types 3318.6xx and 3319.6xx:<br />
Danger of injury due to rotating fan<br />
blades!<br />
Do not remove the louvred grille until<br />
after the condenser fan has come to a<br />
stop.<br />
Remove the louvred grille on the front of the recooling<br />
system by carefully pulling it off the housing.<br />
The louvred grilles are fastened onto the housing<br />
with plastic pins.<br />
Remove the filter mat from the louvred grilles.<br />
Replace the filter mats made of filter fleece. Clean<br />
the metal filter mats with a high-pressure cleaner.<br />
Place a new filter mat or the cleaned metal filter mat<br />
in the louvred grille and press it back onto the housing.<br />
Fortypes 3320.6xx and 3334.6xx:<br />
The louvred grilles are fastened onto the housing<br />
with plastic pins.<br />
Danger of injury due to rotating fan<br />
blades!<br />
Do not remove the louvred grille until<br />
after the condenser fan has come to a<br />
stop.<br />
Remove the upper louvred grille on the rear of the<br />
recooling unit by carefully pulling it off the housing.<br />
Pull the filter mat upwards out of the unit.<br />
Replace the filter mats made of filter fleece. Clean<br />
the metal filter mats with a high-pressure cleaner.<br />
Press the upper louvred grille back onto the housing.<br />
8.5 Draining the cooling medium tank<br />
Drain the cooling medium tank via the tank drain<br />
connection (see (7) Fig. 2 or (7) Fig. 4) either directly<br />
or using a hose into a container.<br />
When disposing of the cooling medium, observe the<br />
locally application regulations on water pollution.<br />
