1. General
Remark: Auxiliary blowers which are out of service for a longer period should be
started up for a short time twice a month. Where this is not feasible, the impeller
should be turned by hand by several turns. This is necessary to protect the bear-
ings from corrosion damage.
As the auxiliary blowers are manufactured by sub-suppliers, detailed instructions
on the operation and maintenance can be gathered from the instruction leaflets of
the respective manufacturers.
