Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 42 6.0 C OMPONENT O PERATION AND M AINTENANCE 6.1 System T esting 6.1.1 Environment al Control Functions The performance of all control circuit s can be tested by actuating each of the main functions. This is done by temporarily ch anging the setpoints.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 43 Firest at The optional fire stat is a bimetal operated sen sing device with a normally cl osed switch. This device will shut down the entire unit wh en the inlet air temperature exceed s a preset point. It is connected between terminals 1 and 2 at plug P39.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 44 The zone leak detection kit provides leak detection for a define d zone. This kit is ideal for perimeter sensing or serpentine coverage of small areas. A simple, two-wire co nnection signals the alarms at a Liebert environmental unit or at a monitoring pane l.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 45 6.3 Blower Package Periodic checks of the blower package include: belt, motor mounts, fan bearings, and impellers. 6.3.1 Fan Impellers and Bearings Fan impellers should be periodically inspected an d any debri s removed.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 46 6.4 Refrigeration System Each month, the comp onents of the refrig eration system should be inspected for proper function and signs of wear.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 47 6.4.4 Thermost atic Exp ansion V alve Operation The thermostatic expansion valve perfor ms one function. It keeps the evapo rator supplied with enough refri gerant to satisfy load con ditions . It does not effect compressor operation.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 48 6.4.6 Air Cooled Condenser Restricted airflow through the conden ser coil will reduce the operatin g efficiency of the unit and can result in high compressor head pressure and loss of cooling. Clean the condens er coil of all debris that will inhi bit air flow.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 49 6.4.7 W ater/Glycol Cooled Condensers Coaxial Condenser Each water or glycol cooled module has a co axial condense r w hich consists of a steel outside tube and a copper inside tube. Coaxial condensers do not normally require maintenance or replacemen t if the wa ter su pply is clean.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 50 High Pressure V alve - 350 PSIG System (2413 kPa) for 3 T on Unit s (Metrex V alve) Adjustment —The valve may be adju sted using a 1/8" di ameter rod. Turn ad justing collar nut cou n- terclockwise to raise head pressure.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 51 6.4.8 Compressor Functional Check The following diagnostic procedure should be use d to evaluate whether the compressor is working properly .
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 52 Electrical Failure An electrical failure will be indicated by a distinct pungent odor. If a severe burnout has occurred, the oil will be black and aci dic.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 53 6.5 Humidifier 6.5.1 Infrared Humidifier During normal humid ifier operation, deposits of mineral sol ids will collect in the humidifier pan. This should be cleaned out periodica lly to ensure efficient operation.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 54 Autoflush Infrared Humidifier Cleaning System The autoflush system will periodically flush the hum idifier pan with water to prevent the buildup of water minerals due to saturation . Because water conditions vary, the amount of water flushing through the system may be pr ogrammed to match local needs.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 55 Operation 1. During start-up, when the humi dity control calls for humidifica tion, the fill valve opens and allows water to enter the canist er. When the water leve l reaches the electrodes, current flows and the water begins to warm.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 56 Replacing the Canister Over a period of operation, the humidifier electrodes become coated with mineral solids. This coating insulates the electrodes and decre ases the current flow. To mainta in humidifier capa city, the water level slowly rises to expose fresh electrode.
Componen t Operatio n and Maintenance 57 Figure 14 Canister replacement Circuit Board Adjustment s Humidifier operation is governed by the humidi fier control board. Th is board is located on the right side of the hu midifier compartment. There are three potentiome ters mounted on the board.
