XEM - INSTALLATION & OPERATION MANUAL

•  All Armcor equipment is designed for easy maintenance.  

•  Preventative maintenance programs will vary according 

to actual operating conditions and location and hours of 
usage by the client.

•  Armcor Air Solutions are pleased to provide expert 

advice on special service maintenance requirements for 
particular installations.

•  Monthly maintenance is usually focused on air filters and 

visual checks to monitor any operational deficiencies.  
The type of filter and frequency of cleaning should 
be addressed by the installing contractor to suit the 
customer’s requirements.

•  Filters should be inspected immediately after installation 

to confirm the frequency of cleaning needed for the 

particular location.  Regular change/clean of filters is 
necessary to ensure normal operating conditions.

•  Check condensate drain (if applicable) for free drainage

•  Disposable Corrugated Filters

. Ordinary disposable 

corrugated filters should last approximately one month in 
normal commercial use, or longer depending on usage.

•  Cleanable Filters

. If filters are cleanable, they should 

be cleaned once a month and the filter media should be 
replaced every 12 months.

•  Repeat the monthly schedule.

•  Check blower wheels for dirt build-up and tightness on 

shaft.

•  Check all cabinet panels for correct fitting, alignment and 

seals, and clean cabinets as required.  Ensure no insulation 
has been detached from the panels.

•  All electrical terminals should be checked for tightness. 

IMPORTANT  –  Ensure    the  with  main  switch  is           
turned off.

•  Check and clean heat exchangers, heating/cooling coils, 

drain trays and outlets. (If applicable).  Vacuum or brush 
clean as necessary.

•  Repeat monthly and three monthly checks.

•  Check cabinet for any paint chips or abrasions and treat 

accordingly.

•  Check and record the available voltage and amperage of 

each phase.

•  Check and record the amperage of each motor against 

nameplate details.

•  Check and record refrigerant gas pressures (if applicable)

IMPORTANT:  Failure to carry out regular maintenance with a licensed and reputable service company 
may render warranty claims invalid, if faults have been caused by lack of proper maintenance.  Armcor Air 
Solutions may request to see the maintenance schedule carried out.
