IMPORTANT: Ensure all adequate safety measures are taken 
for  all  these  operations:  use  appropriate  PPE  (personal 
protective equipment), comply with all applicable industry 
and local regulations, and use common sense.
13.3 - Level 3 maintenance
Maintenance at this  level  requires  specic  skills,  qualications, 
tools and expertise. Only the manufacturer, his representative or 
authorised agent are permitted to carry out this work.
This maintenance work relates to the following:
 - Replacement of major components (compressor, water type 
heat exchanger),
 - Operations on the refrigerant circuit (handling refrigerant),
 - Modication of factory-set parameters (change of application),
 - Movement or disassembly of the refrigeration unit,
 - Any operation due to proven lack of maintenance,
 - Any operation covered by the warranty,
 - One or two leak detection operations per year performed by 
qualied personnel using a certied leak detector.
 - To reduce waste, the refrigerant and the oil must be 
transferred in accordance with applicable regulations, using 
methods that limit refrigerant leaks and pressure drops and 
with materials that are suitable for the products.
 - Any leaks detected must be repaired immediately
 - The compressor oil that is recovered during maintenance 
contains refrigerant and must be treated accordingly.
 - Pressurised refrigerant must not be vented to the open air.
 - If the refrigerant circuit must be opened, cap all openings for 
a period of up to one day. If open for longer, blanket the circuit 
with a dry, inert gas (e.g. nitrogen).

13.6 - Air-cooled exchanger
We recommend that coils are inspected regularly to check the 
degree of fouling. This depends on the environment where the 
unit is installed, in particular urban and industrial sites, and for 
units installed near trees that shed their leaves.
Recommendations for maintenance and cleaning of air-cooled 
exchangers:
 - Regularly cleaning the coil surface is essential for correct 
unit operation.
 - Eliminating contamination and removal of harmful residue 
will increase the operating life of the coils and the unit.
 - The maintenance and cleaning procedures below are part of 
the regular maintenance to increase the operating life of coils.
 - Specic  recommendation  in  case  of  snow:  for  long  term 
storage, regularly check that no snow has accumulated on 
the coil.
Specic data for RB and RBP tted with MCHE:
 - Clean the surface of the coil by spraying the coil regularly 
and uniformly from bottom to top, orienting the water jet at 
right angles to the surface. Do not exceed a water pressure 
of 6200 kPa (62 bar) or an angle of 45° in relation to the coil. 
The nozzle must be at least 300 mm away from the coil 
surface.
 - Clean and scrub the entire connection with a exible Nylon, 
PolyPro
®
 or Tynex
®
 brush and low-pressure tap water.
Level 1 cleaning: 
 - Remove all foreign objects or debris attached to the surface of the 
coil or wedged between the casing and the supports
 - For RQ and RQP tted with RTPF coils, scrub vertically and gently 
using a brush.
 - Use a low pressure dry air jet to remove all traces of dust 
from the coil.
Level 2 cleaning:
 - Carry out the level 1 cleaning operations.
 - Clean the coil, using appropriate products.
Use appropriate PPE including safety glasses and/or mask, 
waterproof clothes and safety gloves. It is recommended to 
wear clothing that covers the whole body.
Specic products approved by the manufacturer for cleaning 
coils  are  available  from  the  manufacturer's  spare  parts 
network. The use of any other product is strictly prohibited. 
After the cleaning product is  applied, rinsing with water is 
mandatory (see manufacturer's standard RW01-25).
