9.1 Check connections
Check all connections:
■
Check the electrical connections for firm seating.
■
Check that the sea water piping is firmly mounted and not lea-
king.
■
Check that the air ducts are firmly mounted and not leaking.
■
The air inlet and outlet air grilles must not be blocked.
9.2 Checking operation of condensed-wa-
ter drain

See Chapter “7 Operation” on page 17
Check the sea water flow rate.Determine the flow rate of the
exiting sea water with catch containers and a stop watch.
Note
The actual flow rate must be above the required min-
imum flow rate (see Chapter “13 Technical Data” on
page 30) to ensure fault-free operation at high sea
water temperatures.
If the minimum value is not reached, the pressure
losses in the sea water system should be reduced us-
ing the following measures:
■
Use larger cross-sections
■
fewer bends
■
shorter lines
■
use a more powerful pump
