2.7.1
Availability of maintenance tools
Hitachi Service Tools
All of the functions of the Hitachi Service Tools software can also
be used for unit maintenance (preventive or corrective). Any
incident can be quickly detected and solved in a shorter time.
The CSNET WEB system is also a powerful tool that is extremely
useful for maintenance work.
Hitachi has a range of different remote control systems that can
be used with the SET FREE and UTOPIA outdoor units. Consult
the corresponding Technical Catalogue for controls.
Monitoring the system and simplifying maintenance work
The Hitachi Service Tools software is a very powerful tool for the control and management of air conditioning
installations. To do so, it supervises the working order of the entire system and displays data that allows for potential
incidents to be detected.
Management via software improves the advanced scheduling of planned technical stoppages and means that any unit
can be inspected without altering the operation of the air conditioning system. The data obtained is processed and
interpreted directly by the software, without the need to waste time or personnel on data reading or on-site checks.
Decrease in operation costs
Monitored operation allows for real-time observation of the performance of the entire air conditioning system. The control
system is responsible for ensuring all parts work according to the foreseen conditions, with the maximum performance
and efficiency at all times. In this situation, the utmost benefit is obtained from the entire installation at minimum
operation costs.
Any range of values tending to be outside that foreseen is an indication of a situation that must be corrected as quickly
as possible. The management software clearly displays situations of this type and, therefore, is an interesting ally for
reducing costs generated by extraordinary maintenance stoppages.
The more in-depth analysis of the tendencies offers a starting point for realistic maintenance schedules, adapted to the
operating conditions of each system.
2.7.2 Simple maintenance
Optimised design to simplify maintenance
The components of the indoor units of the entire range have a strong, long-lasting design bearing in mind the demanding
requirements of the market insofar as maintenance cost reduction.
The interior structure of the units and the layout of the internal parts make any removal and assembly operations easier
where technical work is required for some reason.
Minimum or zero maintenance
All units and components of the UTOPIA range of outdoor units have been designed for simple, easy maintenance
operations.
Absence of replacement consumable
Parts subject to inspection are practically inexistent throughout the range. On some specific models, only the regular
long-term replacement of the air and deodorising filters is required. Consumable or replacement parts are not required.
Loyal to the Hitachi philosophy
The outdoor units of the UTOPIA range have been designed in line with Hitachi philosophy to guarantee the highest
reliability and reduce maintenance work to an essential minimum.
