9. Maintenance and Cleaning
Diligent maintenance is the prime factor for assuring an error-free and efficient operation of the unit.
Operating personnel can perform these tasks when properly trained.

11. Maintenance schedule
Cleaning of Heat Exchanger
Cooling capacity is heavily reduced, if the heat exchanger is polluted. The heat exchanger must be
checked for pollution regularly and be cleaned if required.
For cleaning the heat exchanger follow these steps:
4)
Disconnect the unit from mains.
6)
Remove the side panel and the unit cover.
7)
Clean the heat exchanger using compressed air opposite to the direction of air entrance into
the unit (i.e. from the inside out). Be careful in order not to damage the plate fins.
8)
Remove any pollution from the ventilation grid and the side panel using a vacuum cleaner.
9)
Remount the unit cover and the side panel.
The unit is ready for operation.
Refilling of Coolant
Since the cooling circuit is an open circuit, evaporation of coolant may occur. Thus, the filling level of
the coolant container must be checked regularly and coolant might have to be refilled as described on
page 22.
