Routine Maintenance Procedures
To keep the load bank in good working order, carry out the following maintenance tasks at
the specified intervals:
Daily (after transportation or before each use of the load bank):
•
Inspect the equipment for signs of damage.
•
Ensure that the inlet and outlet grilles are free from dirt, debris or obstruction. Remove
the grilles and clean them if necessary.
•
Check that both the external supply and the Supply-on-Test are properly connected.
•
Visually check that all cable connections are tight and that there is no sign of
overheating.
•
Check that the connecting cables are free from damage.
•
Check that all cables are secured and routed so that they do not present a safety
hazard.
•
Inspect the doors and door gaskets to ensure they are undamaged and make a good
seal to the main frame. Replace if necessary.
•
Ensure that all opening panels are securely closed.
Monthly
•
Clean and inspect painted surfaces for damage or corrosion and touch up as necessary.
•
Check that there is no build up of dirt or debris on the load elements.
•
Check that the fan rotates freely.
•
Check that the fan blades are tight, and that the fan boss is securely fastened to the
motor shaft.
•
Check that the anti condensation heaters (if fitted) are working.
•
Isolate the supply and then inspect both the inductive and resistive load element
terminals, ensuring that they are tight and show no signs of overheating.
•
Open the load bank switchgear cabinets and visually inspect the wiring, fuses and
contactors for signs of overheating.
•
Inspect the switchgear cabinet air filters (6 per duct, located behind the maintenance
doors) and clean or replace if necessary
•
Check that all drain holes in the bottom of the load bank are clear of debris. There are
two located in the bottom of each switchgear and control cabinet and several drain
holes in the floor of the container.
•
Inspect all door seals for damage and replace where necessary.
•
Check the bund is clear and free from water and debris.
Warning! The fan, can
cause serious injury
when it is in operation.
Ensure that the supply
is isolated before re-
moving safety covers.
