aintenance

odification
To ensure continuous function and safety of the complete system periodic
maintenance by a specialist company is required at least once a year
(as mandated by law for smoke and heat exhaust systems). Operational
readiness must be checked regularly, at least once a month.
The information provided in these instructions for the maintenance must
be observed. Malfunctions must be remedied immediately. Only spare
parts made by the manufacturer may be used. Between maintenan-
ce intervals the operator shall carry out or order a visual inspection at
least once and document it in writing in the log book. We recommend
a maintenance contract with a specialist company authorized by the
manufacturer. A sample maintenance contract can be downloaded from
the homepage of

).
After opening of the system housing voltage carrying
parts are exposed! Each time, before performing main-
tenance work or making a modification of the structure
(e.g. replacement of the window drive), the mains voltage
and – as far as available – the accumulators must be com-
pletely discunnected and secured against unintentional
reactivation (lock in separation mode).
What has to be serviced?
• Check all
connections
(also the ones in the Control Unit) for tight-
ness and for possible damage.
• Check all
fuse links
.
• Check charge level and installation date of back-up
accumulators
and exchange the accumulators, if necessary (accumulators
must be exchanged 4 years after installation). Note down
the exchange date on the accumulator. Dispose of removed
accumulators in conformity with legal requirements.
• Check
drive control
for proper function. Also check drive run
directions. If the actuation is correct but the drive is still not
working properly, pay regard to the assembly and maintenance
instructions of the drive manufacturer.
• Check all
breakglass units
and ventilation buttons for functionality
(do the drives move in the direction indicated on the buttons?)
• Check all
smoke detectors
according to manufacturer’s instructions
using test gas.
• Remove dirty or faulty
detectors
and send them to the manufacturer
for repair or cleaning.
• When connecting
wind and rain sensors
check for proper functionality
of the sensors, readjust the wind response threshold, if necessary.
The service instructions for the connected components are decisive
for their maintenance.

information
• While working in the Control Unit the workplace must be secured
against unauthorized access.
• The specialists performing the maintenance work are solely re-
sponsible for the maintenance.
• For smoke and heat exhaust systems a log book must be kept in which
the maintenance work must be documented. Special attention must
be paid to operating events (e.g. repeatedly occurring malfunctions)
which may be recorded.
• These installation and operating instructions are part of the main-
tenance documents. The control device may be maintained only by
considering the information provided therein. This affects also system
supplements and the exchange of components. A separate main-
tenance protocol should be prepared and filed with the maintenance
documents.
• Only original parts may be used. Otherwise the warranty obligation
and product liability of the manufacturer shall no longer apply.
• For the maintenance of individual system components the installation
and maintenance instructions of the manufacturer of these com-
ponents shall be binding. If they are not available, they must be
requested from the manufacturer. In case special maintenance
instructions are prescribed (e.g. for natural smoke and heat exhaust
ventilators pursuant to EN 12101-2), they must also be on hand.
