Inspection and Maintenance
Schedule
Proactive measures should be taken to prevent
potential problems with the chillers. These include
maintaining a operational log and conducting weekly,
quarterly, and annual inspections of the chiller/heater.
See following table.
Daily
A daily visual inspection can reveal obvious problems.
Keep notes of the chiller performance:
•
Log pressures and temperatures.
•
Visually inspect of the unit. Check for noises, as well
as, oil or refrigerant leaks.
•
Inspect touchscreen display for alarms.
•
Inspect modules for obvious leaks.
•
Listen for any atypical noises or vibrations.
