(Note 2)

General
  Complete unit log and review (Note 3)

X

  Inspect unit for loose or damaged components and visible leaks

X

  Inspect thermal insulation for integrity 

X

  Clean and paint as required

X

Electrical ( * including the VFDs)
  Sequence test controls *

X

  Check contactors for pitting, replace as required *

X

  Check terminals for tightness, tighten as necessary * 

X

  Clean control panel interior *

X

  Clean control box fan filter * (Note 7 )

X

  Visually inspect components for signs of overheating *

X

  Verify compressor and oil heater operation

X

  Megger compressor motor 

X

Refrigeration/Lubricant
  Leak test

X

  Check liquid line sight glasses for clear flow

X

  Check compressor oil sight glass for correct level (lubricant charge)

X

  Check filter-drier pressure drop (Note 6)

X

  Perform compressor vibration test (optional)

X

  Perform oil analysis test on compressor oil

X

Condenser (air-cooled)
  Clean condenser coils (Note 4)

X

  Check fan blades for tightness on shaft (Note 5)

X

  Check fans for loose rivets and cracks, check motor brackets

X

  Check coil fins for damage and straighten as necessary

X

NOTE: 

 1 Monthly operations include all weekly operations.
 2 Annual (or spring startup) operations include all weekly and monthly operations.
 3 Log readings can be taken daily for a higher level of unit observation.
 4 Coil cleaning can be required more frequently in areas with a high level of airborne particles.
 5 Be sure fan motors are electrically locked out.

 6 Replace the filter if pressure drop exceeds 20 psi.
 7 The weekly fan filter cleaning schedule can be modified to meet job conditions. It is important that the filter allows full 

air flow.
