Handle regularly the device valves in view to avoid theirs blocking on.
If a personal in charge of maintenance closed a blocked valve, this personal will must avoid the possible increase of pressure in the
part of device which is isolated.
The periodic technical checks must be made following frequencies determined by standards, sound engineering practice, end user
and installer.
Report periodic checks and analyze the data. In case of abnormalities or inconsistencies, determine the cause and correct it.
In case of hanged units (evaporator as an example), it is necessary to define an exclusion zone on the ground, to avoid the
presence of persona under the equipment.
It is important to ensure that the hinge mechanisms of moving parts are operational before all manipulations (drain pan, door, fans
