• We recommend the use of trained and authorized service personnel, extended service contracts and factory-specified replacement parts. Contact your Vertiv sales representative. 8.1 Service Access for Unit Maintenance The DSE500 includes a service door, see Figure 8.1 on the next page, for access to perform maintenance on components inside the thermal management unit.
NOTICE Risk of improper filter installation. Can cause filter collapse and airflow reduction. To maximize the performance and reliability of the equipment, use only Vertiv filters. Contact your Vertiv representative to order replacement filters. Verify that filters are installed and positioned so the air-flow direction marked on the filter is the same direction as unit air flow.

8.3.4 Removing Fan Assembly Do not attempt to remove the fan assemblies without first contacting Vertiv Technical Support at 1-800- 543-2778. 8.4 Electronic Expansion Valve (EEV) Maintenance The EEV controls superheat through the Liebert® iCOM™ controls by actively measuring suction pressure via a transducer attached to the suction-line rotalock and suction temperature via a thermister strapped to the suction line.
System side of valve 8.5.3 Replacement Compressors Replacement compressors are available through your Vertiv sales office. If the unit is under warranty, the replacement compressor must be obtained from and the original compressor returned to your local Vertiv sales office. Compressors are shipped in reusable packaging, and the original compressor should be returned in the same packaging.
WARNING! Risk of over-pressurization of the refrigeration system. Can cause explosive discharge of high-pressure refrigerant, loss of refrigerant, environmental pollution, equipment damage, injury, or death. This unit contains fluids and gases under high pressure. Use extreme caution when charging the refrigerant system. Do not pressurize the system higher than the design pressure marked on the unit's nameplate.
Make sure that no water gets into the inside of the motor. • Do not hold the jet spray directly on the motor openings and seals. • During cleaning work using a jet spray, no guarantee is assumed regarding corrosion formation/paint adhesion for unpainted/painted fans.
