7.2 MACHINE CLEANING
WARNING
Never perform cleaning operations with the circulator running.
Also for external cleaning of the machine, the safety nets and
the shutter blades, prior disconnection from the mains supply
required.
Observe the following provisions, to be performed regularly to
ensure proper cleaning and proper operation of the product.
•
Clean the motor casing regularly with a brush or compressed air
(do not spray water or steam).
Regular cleaning of the motor is particularly important when the
circulator operates in dusty or dirty environments, because the
motor must be able to dissipate the heat generated.
On the motor models where they are present, use the plastic
caps placed on the cover and on the drawer of the motor to
discharge any condensate accumulated inside the motor itself;
at the end of the operation, restore the initial conditions.
•
On the bottom of the bearing structure of the circulator, there
are 2 holes to discharge any water formed; keep the bottom
clean and free holes to avoid corrosion.
•
The propeller blades do not require special maintenance
because they are self cleaning.
•
When using a high pressure cleaner for cleaning, do not direct
the jet of water or steam directly on the motor or central pulley
or above the opening mechanisms.
7.3 MACHINE LUBRICATION
The ball bearing inserted into the driven pulley (pos. 11) is
permanently lubricated and requires no special care; the same
applies to the motor bearings.
7.1 MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS
Air circulators made by FRANCO S.R.L. are designed and
manufactured for long life even under the most severe service
conditions.
Please remember however that this equipment HAS moving
parts, and as such they need to be checked regularly.
It is therefore recommended to implement a preventive
maintenance program, which will be entrusted to skilled and
competent personnel.
The daily inspection must be performed to prevent any failure
due to adverse effects of the working environment such as
temperature, humidity, dust, dirt and vibration, and other factors.
WARNING
Never perform cleaning operations with the circulator running.
Also for external cleaning of the machine, the safety nets and
the shutter blades, prior disconnection from the mains supply
required.
WARNING
The maintenance of the circulator must be performed only by
trained personnel in compliance with safety standards and
requirements set forth in this Manual.
Before connecting to the mains, isolate the power line by
opening the main switch
.
WARNING
In the machine maintenance and inspection phases there is a
risk of entanglement and cutting of clothes, limbs, hair or other
parts of the body by the fan.
During these phases acquire the PPE, in particular safety
clothing and gloves, tie long hair back and do not wear rings,
bracelets or necklaces.
CAUTION
To ensure a high level of safety, use only original spare parts
available from your supplier. In case of using non-original parts, full
functionality and compliance with EC directives regarding electrical
safety and electromagnetic compatibility are not ensured.
WARNING
When working on the machine, it is necessary to make all
personnel are aware of this.
In the event of maintenance work, affix a warning sign onto
the power supply switch to inhibit accidental operation by a
second operator.
Regularly carry out the following operations:
•
Ensure that the inlet and outlet openings are clean and free
of objects.
•
Ensure the circulator is always dry. If the circulator appears wet,
dry it immediately; identify the cause and remedy to prevent
corrosion.
•
Check the cable connections and connectors. In the event of
loose connections, damaged cables, or other abnormalities,
stop the circulator immediately and seek specialised assistance
or technicians.
•
Check for any loosen or rusted bolts or nuts, due of the
environmental conditions, paying particular attention to the
conditions of the devices used to hang the machine. If case is
needed, tighten or replace.
•
Check for any deposits inside the equipment. In the case,
remove the deposits by compressed air jets.
