11. MAINTENANCE AND PERIODIC CHECKS<br />

11.1 WARNINGS<br />

11.2 INTRODUCTION<br />

All operations described in this chapter MUST BE PERFORMED EXCLU-<br />

SIVELY BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL.<br />

Make sure that the unit has been disconnected from the power supply<br />

before carrying out any work or accessing internal parts.<br />

The compressor head and discharge pipeline can reach high temperatures.<br />

Always exert caution when working in the vicinity of the<br />

compressor.<br />

Adopt the maximum caution when working in the vicinity of the finned<br />

coils because of the sharp edges of the aluminium fins.<br />

After performing maintenance work always refit the outer panels<br />

and secure them with the screw.<br />

Carry out the following periodic checks to ensure the unit is operating correctly:<br />

CHECK PERIOD<br />

Check that safety and control devices work correctly as previously described Monthly<br />

Check that all the terminals witin the electrical panel and compressor are light. The sliding<br />

terminals of the contactors should be periodicaly cleaned if an damage is found, replace<br />

contactors<br />

Monthly<br />

Check the sight glass to verify the refrigerant charge Monthly<br />

Check that there is no for oil leakage from the compressor Monthly<br />

Check that there are no water leaks from the hydraulic circuit Monthly<br />

If the unit is to be stopped for a long period, including all pipes and heat exchanger, should be<br />

drained. This is compulsory if the ambient temperatures is expected to fall below the freezing<br />

point of the liquid employed<br />

Seasonal<br />

Check process water levels Monthly<br />

Check that the flow switch is operating correctly Monthly<br />

Check that the crankcase heaters is operating correctly and there is a power supply Monthly<br />

Clean metallic filters on water piping Monthly<br />

Clean the finned coil or metal filters, if present, by means of compressed air, which should be<br />

directed in the opposite direction to the normal direction of air flow. If the coil is completely<br />

clogged, clean with a water jet<br />

Monthly<br />

Execute a defrost test (heat pump units only) Monthly<br />

<strong>EPSILON</strong> <strong>CF</strong> 5 - 15 / UTA 21 - 81 Check the condition, anchorage and balancing of the fans 4 monthly<br />

<strong>EPSILON</strong> <strong>CF</strong> 20 - 35 / UTA 91 - 161 Check drive belt tension and wear. To check belt tension apply<br />

a force of approximately 5 kg in a direction perpendicular to the belt in a central position. The<br />

deflection of the belt with respect to its initial position must be approximately 10÷12 mm<br />

4 monthly<br />

Check the colour of the sight glass core (green = no moisture, yellow = moisture present); if it is<br />

yellow change the refrigerant filter<br />

4 monthly<br />

Check that the noise level has not increased 4 monthly<br />
