17 Maintenance
The panels of the smoke and heat exhaust ventilation system have to be checked, serviced and, if necessary, repaired at least
once per year by the manufacturer or an authorized partner
Remove all soiling from the units of the smoke and heat exhaust system. Check fastening and clamping screws for firm seating.
Carry out a test run of the entire system (see chapter 15 ‘Commissioning and test run).
Only have defective units repaired in our factory. Only install original spare parts.
Check the operational condition at regular intervals. We recommend a WindowMaster service contract is taken out to ensure the
right function of the smoke and heat exhaust system.
All back up batteries coming with the smoke control panel as standard; have to be subjected to regular checks.
The smoke ventilation panel will signal fault on the batteries if the battery voltage is below 17V.
Within the framework of the service, they have to be replaced after the specified maximum 4 year operating period.
Dispose of used batteries according to the National regulation.
CAUTION: RISK OF EXPLOSION IF BATTERIES ARE REPLACED BY AN INCORRECT TYPE.
We recommend that the software of the panel is updated during the annual maintenance check!
The expected minimum lifetime for the CompactSmoke™ is 10 years excluding the batteries.
