EXTRAORDINARY MAINTENANCE
UNDERSTANDING SIMPLE MALFUNCTIONS
At times malfunctions are due to simple and trivial causes and nearly always there is no need to call in
a specialised technician, therefore before informing the company check for the following:
The Chiller is not powered:
a. Check that it is plugged in;
b. Check that there is power.
The Chiller does not reach the correct internal temperature:
a. Check the temperature settings;
b. Check the probe.
The Chiller is excessively noisy:
a. Check that the Chiller is level. If unbalanced this could cause vibrations creating excessive
noise.
b. Check that the Chiller is not positioned up against other machines or objects causing vibra-
tions.
After having proceeded with the foregoing checks and if the problem persists, contact the company giving:
- A description of the type of malfunction;
- Chiller code and serial number which are indicated on the metal plate.
WASTE DISPOSAL AND SCRAPPING
Storing waste:
It is possible to temporarily store special waste products that are to be scrapped. However, the user must
observe and adhere to the local governing laws regarding waste management.
Macro – dismantling the Chiller:
Each country has its own waste management laws, therefore the user must observe and adhere to the
local governing laws where the Chiller is to be scrapped.
As a general guideline the Chiller should be handed over to a special waste treatment plant. Dismantle
it and divide the various components into groups according to their chemical properties. Remember that
there is oil and refrigerating solutions in the condenser that can be recuperated and reused and the various components are considered special waste products and as such are treated as urban waste.
CAUTION: All dismantling operations must be carried out by specialised personnel!
CAUTION: Extraordinary maintenance and servicing work must be carried out be qualified personnel!
