- Verify compressor and oil heater operation

- Check filter-drier pressure drop. Replace the filter if pressure drop exceeds 20 psi.;

Warning: This inspection requires trained personnel with PPE!

If the sight glass is not clear, it may indicate inadequate refrigerant charge.

Is there bubbling refrigerant in the sight glass during stable run conditions?

Bubbling refrigerant may indicate an EXV problem or excessive pressure drop.

Is the sight glass indicating a dry condition after about 12 hours of operation?

If not, an oil acid test is recommended.

The following additional cleaning procedures are recommended as part of the routine maintenance activities for epoxy coated coils. Documented routine cleaning of epoxy coated coils is required to maintain warranty coverage.

Quarterly cleaning is essential to extend the life of an epoxy coated coil and is required to maintain warranty coverage. Coil cleaning shall be part of the unit’s regularly scheduled maintenance procedures. Failure to clean an epoxy coated coil will void the warranty and may result in reduced efficiency and durability in the environment.

For routine quarterly cleaning, first remove surface debris and then clean the coil with an approved coil cleaner (see approved products list in Table 55). After cleaning the coils with the approved cleaning agent, use the approved chloride remover to remove soluble salts and revitalize the unit.

The following cleaning agents, assuming they are used in accordance with the manufacturer’s directions on the container for proper mixing and cleaning, have been approved for use on epoxy coated coils to remove mold, mildew, dust, soot, greasy residue, lint and other particulate:

CHLOR*RID DTSTM should be used to remove soluble salts from the epoxy coated coil, but the directions must be followed closely. This product is not intended for use as a degreaser. Any grease or oil film should first be removed with the approved cleaning agent.

1. Remove Barrier - Soluble salts adhere themselves to the substrate. For the effective use of this product, the product must be able to come in contact with the salts. These salts may be beneath any soils, grease or dirt; therefore, these barriers must be removed prior to application of this product.

As in all surface preparation, the best work yields the best results.

2. Apply CHLOR*RID DTS - Apply CHLOR*RID DTS directly onto the substrate. Sufficient product must be applied uniformly across the substrate to thoroughly wet out surface with no areas missed. This may be accomplished by use of a pump-up sprayer or conventional spray gun.
