14 - STANDARD MAINTENANCE
Air conditioning equipment must be maintained by profes-sional
technicians, whilst routine checks can be carried out locally by
specialised technicians. See the standard EN 378-4.
Simple preventive maintenance will allow you to get the best
performance from your HVAC unit:
• improved cooling performance
• reduced power consumption
• prevention of accidental component failure
• prevention  of  major  time-consuming  and  costly  inter-
ventions
• protection of the environment
There are five maintenance levels for HVAC units, as defined by 
the AFNOR X60-010 standard.

14.1 - Level 1 maintenance

See note below.
Simple procedure can be carried out by the user:
• Visual inspection for oil traces (sign of a refrigerant leak)
• Check for removed protection devices, and badly closed
doors/covers
• Check the unit alarm report when the unit does not work
(see report in the SmartVu
• Check the clogging state of filters of aeration openings of 
the control box.
General visual inspection for any signs of deterioration.

14.2 - Level 2 maintenance

See note below.
This level requires specific know-how in the electrical, hydraulic 
and mechanical fields. It is possible that these skills are avail-able 
locally: existence of a maintenance service, industrial site,
specialised subcontractor.
In these cases, the following maintenance operations are
recommended.
Carry out all level 1 operations, then:
• At least once a year tighten the power circuit electrical
connections (see tightening torques table).
• Check and re-tighten all control/command connections, if
required (see tightening torques table).
• Check the differential switches for correct operation every
6 months.
• Remove the dust and clean the interior of the control boxes,
if required. Check filter cleanliness (if present).
• Check the presence and the condition of the electrical
protection devices.
• Replace the fuses every 3 years or every 15000 hours
(age-hardening).
• Replace  the  control  box  cooling  fans  (if  used)  every  five 
years.
• Check the water connections.
• Purge the water circuit (see chapter 7 "Water connections").
• Clean the water filter (see chapter 7 "Water connections").
• Check the unit operating parameters and compare them
with previous values.
• Keep and maintain a maintenance sheet, attached to each
HVAC unit.
All these operations require strict observation of adequate safety
measures: individual protection garments, compliance with all
industry regulations, compliance with applicable local regulations
and using common sense.

14.3 - Level 3 (or higher) maintenance

See note below.
The  maintenance  at  this  level  requires  specific  skills/approval/
tools and know-how and only the manufacturer, his representative
or authorised agent are permitted to carry out these operations.
These maintenance operations concern for example:
• A major component replacement (compressor, evapo-rator)
• Any intervention on the refrigerant circuit (handling
refrigerant)
• Changing of parameters set at the factory (application
change)
• Removal or dismantling of the HVAC unit
• Any intervention due to a missed established mainte-nance
operation
• Any intervention covered by the warranty
NOTE: Any deviation or non-observation of these mainte-
nance criteria will render the guarantee conditions for the
HVAC unit nul and void, and the manufacturer, Carrier France,
will no longer be held responsible.
