7 --- Maintenance
The Maintenance Programme below must be carried out by a
qualified technician, preferably working under a maintenance
contract.
Before any intervention on the unit or accessing the inner com-
ponents (removing the outer panels), always ensure the ma-
chine is switched off. If the front upper panels are removed (coil
compartment) wait for the fan(s) to come to a complete stop be-
fore accessing the compartment; if the front lower panels are re-
moved, pay special attention when working near the com-
pressor upper part and the discharge line: they are very hot;
possibly wait for them to cool. Be very careful when operating
close to the finned coils, as the fins are very sharp. Do not remove
the fan protection grille before electrically isolating the whole
machine. Do not insert foreign matter through the fan protection
grille. After the maintenance interventions, always close the unit
with the suitable panels, fastened by the tightening system.

8 --- Options and Accessories
8.1 --- Pump set
The centrifugal pump units are direct driven, with close ---
coupled motors and a single shaft; the induction motor has 2
poles with IP 55 protection and class F insulation.
Pump casings and impellers are in cast iron EN ---GJL 200, shafts
are in stainless steel, the shaft seal is a unbalanced, mechanical
shaft seal with dimensions according to DIN 24 960 and assem-
bly length according to EN 12 756, brass neck ring permits ideal
conditions for the use of water mixtures containing ethylene gly-
col. The pump housing, the motor stool and the motor stator
housing are electrocoated.
The pump units have been chosen and sized to operate within
specific limits, namely:
Water / ethylene glycol mixtures up to 65% / 35% by weight;
S
Temperatures of the standard pumped fluid not lower than
S
4°C.
The motor stool forms connection between the pump housing
and the motor, and is equipped with a manual air vent screw for
venting of the pump housing and the shaft seal chamber. It is
very important to carry out this operation as the circulation of liq-
Check that the fan motor rotates freely without any abnormal noise, and ensure that the
S
bearings are not running hot.
Also check the current absorption.
S
Check the conditions of the filters (if they are supplied); if necessary clean them (including
S
the electrical panel ventilation filter).
Check the condenser coils and clean if necessary with compressed air or soft brushes.
S
Check that the control equipment, LEDs and display are operating correctly.
S
Check the electrical supply on all phases.
S
Ensure that all electrical connections are tight.
S
Check the condensing and the evaporating pressures (to be done by a refrigeration techni-
S
cian).
Check the compressor's current absorption, the delivery temperature and possible unusual
S
noises.
Check the refrigerant charge by means of the sight glass.
S
Check that the safety devices operate correctly.
S
Check the correct operation of the thermostatic valve (superheating between 5ûC
S
Check that the oil level indicated by the compressor sight glass is higher than the min. value.
S
Ensure that there are no water leaks.
S
Bleed any air out of the hydraulic circuit using the bleed valves.
S
Verify that the water flow rate is correct.
S
Check the inlet --- outlet liquid temperature and pressure.
S
Check the correct operation of the three--- way valve (Versions with free--- cooling only).
S
Check if the system is charged with the specified glycol percentage and that no ice has
S
formed in the hydraulic circuit.
Check the evaporator cleanliness.

7.1 --- Spare parts
The use of original spare parts is recommended.
When placing an order refer to the "Component List" enclosed
with the machine and quote the unit model no. and serial no.
7.2 --- Dismantling the unit
The machine has been designed and built to ensure continuous
operation.
The working life of some of the main components, such as the
fans and the compressors, depends on the maintenance that
they receive.
If the unit has to be dismantled, the job must be done by skilled
refrigeration technicians.
The refrigerant and the lubricating oil in the circuit must be dis-
posed of in conformity with the laws in force in your country.
uid through the duct of the air vent screw ensures lubrication and
cooling of the shaft seal.
Between the outlets of the two chambers and the discharge
flange, twin ---head pumps have a non ---return flap valve in
EPDM rubber. The flap is opened by the flow of the pumped liq-
uid and cuts off the port of the idle pump chamber.
In the electrical panel there are automatic circuit breakers for
each pump; the microprocessor control manages the operating
rotation between the two pumps and start---up of the stand ---by
pump if the primary pump fails.
For the technical features of the pumps and the hydraulic sche-
matic see Tab. 8, Fig. 10 and Fig. 11.
8.2 --- Water chiller with partial heat
recovery (20%)
This option enables the recovery of up to 20% of the heat normal-
ly rejected by the condensers (see Tab. 2). The system does not
require any adjustment and is made up of plate heat exchangers
installed on each circuit before the condenser. The exchangers
are protected by a suitable anti ---frost heater that operates when
