Servicing / service contract
In the same way that motorists service their vehicles to keep them in the best possible working order, so the use of a
freezer requires a certain minimum level of maintenance in order to keep it in good working order.
Accordingly, an annual service is recommended, to check various aspects (performance, safety, alarms), to pre-empt
certain failures and to carry out preventive actions to minimise the risks of unexpected shutdowns. This service may
be performed by the customer’s maintenance department, if it possesses the equipment needed and has received
training from Froilabo, or by a Froilabo technician during an annual inspection. Notwithstanding the above, any
serious issues will require a visit from our maintenance service, or diagnosis and assistance by telephone.
Inspection points:
-
Fully clean the condenser and replace the filter.
-
Check the refrigerant load.
-
Check the motor current loads.
-
Check the safety mechanisms, alarms and thermostats.
-
Check all mechanical parts (latches, chamber fixtures)
-
Check the internal chamber temperature.
-
Check the refrigerating circuit for leaks.
Check the compressor dampers (vibration reduction).
-
Replace the stylus in the recorder.
-
Check the fan bearings.
Depending on the type of service contract, Froilabo undertakes to respond within set lead times in the event of a
failure.
