8 Inspection & Maintenance
8.1 Introduction
This chapter provides a recommended schedule for performing maintenance. You must perform periodic maintenance on the
equipment and components of your Contherm
™
to ensure its safe and efficient operation. Alfa Laval Service personnel are also
available to assist with equipment service. Assistance can be requested via e-mail (USContherm.support@alfalaval.com).
As each application and use of the Contherm
™
will create varying degrees of mechanical performance. It is highly recommended
to inspect the equipment frequently in the early stages of use and to document wear patterns of all components to identify
what is appropriate and necessary for long term care and performance of the equipment. The frequency of inspection and
maintenance can later be reduced based on experiences gained.
Items that require frequent inspection whenever the heat exchanger is opened are as follows:
1. Scraping blades
2. Mechanical seal components and O-rings
3. Heat transfer cylinder
4. Rotor blade pins
In addition to the maintenance schedule, detailed procedures for performing all maintenance actions required to support the
equipment and components of your Contherm
™
are provided.
WARNING Refer to chapter 2, Safety, before proceeding to maintain the Contherm
™
equipment.
WARNING Do not perform maintenance on the Contherm
™
or its equipment and parts until you have read
this manual and are knowledgeable of the equipment and all applicable safety precautions.
Handle all items with care as some items may be slippery due to lubrication, fragile and/or
may have sharp edges.
WARNING When lifting or transporting large components such as the heat transfer cylinder or the rotor,
take proper precautions and use proper lifting devices as these components can weigh up
to 200 lb/91 kg
WARNING Before attempting service of media pipework or refrigeration equipment, ensure the system is
not pressurized, is at ambient temperature and is fully drained of fluid or refrigerant as some
refrigerants are extremely harmful to user safety.
WARNING Many maintenance procedures require opening of the Contherm
™
heat exchanger via use of
the product head clamp (Part Number 7403038-01). Only use OEM clamp components as this
is a pressure vessel code component made from special materials.
