MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION GUIDELINE OF MAIN PARTS OF PACKAGED AIR CONDITIONER
This table indicates the details of regular inspection items and their intervals
(inspection interval), and the timing of parts replacement under a normal
use condition. If the equipment falls into a certain category specified
by the laws and regulations of each country, conduct the maintenance
and inspection according to the specified rules too. As to the preventive
maintenance, the regular inspection interval is indicated as the “inspection
interval,” and the predicted interval of the “implementation of cleaning and
adjustment” or “implementation of parts replacement and repair” according
to the result of the regular inspection is indicated as the “maintenance
interval.” As to the cleaning and adjustment, the timing is set to prevent the
deterioration of parts and the degradation of performance. As to the parts
replacement and repair after the inspection, the timing is set by estimating
the operation time or use time, when the wear-out failure period is reached.
Note 1) Random fault is an unexpected failure which occurs before
the wear is progressed, within the service life of the parts and
equipment. It is difficult to establish a technological measure
against the random fault. At the moment, statistical handling is the
only measure against the random fault.
Note 2) The elapsed year marked with * assumes the operating time
as 10 hours/day and 2500 hours/year in a normal operating
condition without frequent start/stop. This may vary according to
the operating condition. Please check the calculation basis of the
elapsed year when making a maintenance contract.
Note 3)
illustrates the estimated timing when the wear-out
failure starts and how the failure rate increases as the time passes.
Note 4) The inspection timing of filter is basically every week. However, the
contamination state varies depending on the type of filter and the
use condition. Therefore, conduct the inspection in arbitrary cycles
according to the use condition.
[Mainly indoor parts and built-in components]
*The distinction between the indoor and outdoor assumes the air conditioner for a store and a multiple-air conditioner for a building. This may vary depending on the configuration of the unit, such as equipment air conditioner.
