5. MAINTENANCE SECTION
Warning!
Special vacuum maintenance must be carried out solely by specialised technicians
authorised by the DEPURECO dealer.
5.1 Informative notes
This section describes the checks and routine maintenance operations required to ensure proper vacuum
operation.
Maximum reliability and minimum maintenance costs are the result of a planned maintenance and inspection
schedule carefully followed throughout the entire lifespan of the vacuum.
Observe the set maintenance intervals and schedule the interventions according to specific requirements in
relation with the vacuum production cycle.
Always use tools that are in perfect condition and that are specifically intended for the operation to be carried
out; the use of inadequate or inefficient tools may cause serious damage.
Any other intervention required to eliminate faults or malfunctions must be expressly authorised by the
manufacturer.
In these cases, always communicate the vacuum identification data - see para. 1.4 of this manual.
For significant repairs, refer to the authorised dealer, whose specialised personnel has the technological
expertise and is always available for prompt interventions.
For user maintenance operations, the vacuum must be disassembled, cleaned and maintained, where
possible, in such a way as to prevent hazards to the maintenance personnel and to third parties. Suitable
precautions include decontamination prior to disassembly, forced filtered ventilation of the room where the
equipment is disassembled, cleaning the maintenance area and wearing suitable personal protective
equipment.
Once every three months (or more frequently, according to the operating cycle and the conditions of use), the
manufacturer or a qualified technician must check the filters, ensuring that they are not damaged; the tightness
of the air system and proper operation of the control devices.
Should maintenance operations or repairs be carried out, all contaminated objects must be adequately
cleaned, placed in waterproof bags and disposed of in compliance with the regulations in force.
