Every month
Clean or replace air filters if clogged or dirty; coat permanent filters with oil after cleaning; change bag filters when pressure drop is 1 in. wg.
See
for more information.
Belt-drive fans - re-lubricate fan bearings if necessary. See
“Fan Bearing Lubrication,” p. 73
for more information.
Belt-drive fans - check and adjust fan belt tension. See
for more information.
Every three to six months
Belt-drive fans - check fan bearing grease line connections. Lines should be tight to the bearings.
Check motor bracket torque. See
for torque requirements.
Belt-drive fans - check bearing bolt torque and bearing setscrew torque. See
for torque requirements.
Belt-drive fans - align fan and motor sheaves. Tighten sheave set screws to the proper torque. See
“Align Fan and Motor Sheaves,” p. 64
for
more information.
Inspect and clean drain pans. See
for more information.
Tighten electrical connections.
Inspect coils for dirt build-up. See
for more information.
Every year
Inspect the unit casing for corrosion. If damage is found, clean and repaint.
Clean the fan wheels and shaft. See
for more information.
Inspect and clean drain pans.
Check damper linkages, set screws, and blade adjustment. Clean, but do not lubricate, the nylon damper rod bushings.
Clean damper operators.
Inspect electrical components and insulation.
Inspect wiring for damage.
Rotate the fan wheel and check for obstructions. The wheel should not rub. Adjust the center if necessary.
Lubricate motor bearings in accordance with motor manufacturer’s recommendations (see
“Motor Bearing Lubrication,” p. 73
for more
information).
Check condition of gasketing and insulation around unit, door and dampers.
Examine flex connections for cracks or leaks. Repair or replace damaged material.
