Routine Maintenance

WARNING
Hazardous Service Procedures!
The maintenance and troubleshooting procedures
recommended in this manual could result in exposure
to electrical, mechanical or other potential safety
hazards. Always refer to the safety warnings provided
throughout this manual concerning these procedures.
Unless specified otherwise, disconnect all electrical
power including remote disconnect and discharge all
energy storing devices such as capacitors before
servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to
ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized.
When necessary to work with live electrical
components, have a qualified licensed electrician or
other individual who has been trained in handling live
electrical components perform these tasks. Failure to
follow all of the recommended safety warnings
provided, could result in death or serious injury.

Maintenance Checklist

Frequency Maintenance
Every week
• Observe unit weekly for any change in running condition and unusual noise.
• Clean or replace air filters if clogged or dirty.
Every month
• Inspect and clean the main and auxiliary drain pans.
• Manually rotate the fan wheel to check for obstructions in the housing or interference with fan blades. Remove any obstructions and
debris.
Every three to
• Check motor bracket torque.
six months
• Inspect coils for dirt build-up. Clean fins if airflow is clogged.
• Check and tighten all set screws, bolts, locking collars and sheaves.
• Inspect the unit casing for chips corrosion. If damage is found, clean and repaint.
• Clean the fan wheels. Remove any rust from the shaft with an emery cloth and recoat with L.P.S. 3 or equivalent.

WARNING
Rotating Components!
The following procedure involves working with rotating
components. Disconnect all electric power, including
remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power can
not be inadvertently energized. Secure rotor to ensure
rotor cannot freewheel. Failure to secure rotor or
disconnect power before servicing could result in
rotating components cutting and slashing technician
which could result in death or serious injury.
NOTICE:
Replace All Panels and Filters Properly!
Failure to have panels and filters in place could result in
equipment damage. All unit panels and filters must be
in place prior to unit startup.

WARNING
Live Electrical Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and
troubleshooting of this product, it may be necessary to
work with live electrical components. Have a qualified
licensed electrician or other individual who has been
properly trained in handling live electrical components
perform these tasks. Failure to follow all electrical
safety precautions when exposed to live electrical
components could result in death or serious injury.
Change or clean air filters at least twice a year. Filters
require more frequent care under high load or dirty air
conditions since a clogged filter reduces airflow.
and Table 2, p. 14 lists filter size and quantity by unit size.
Throwaway and pleated media filters are available for all
units.
Remove the front panel of the vertical recessed unit and
open the bottom panel door of the horizontal cabinet and
horizontal recessed unit to access the filter. The front panel
of the vertical cabinet unit does not require removal to
change the filter.
Always install filters with directional arrows pointing
toward the fan. Replace panels.
Note: Vertical recessed, horizontal cabinet, and
horizontal recessed units with a bottom return have
filter guides to secure the filter in position. Also, if
these unit types have a fresh air opening, they
require an additional filter for the fresh air opening.
