Maintenance
a) The machine is designed and built to guarantee continuous opera-
tion; however, the life of its components depends on the mainte-
nance performed.
b) Z When requesting assistance or spare parts, identify the machine
(model and serial number) by reading the data plate located on the
unit.
c) Circuits containing 5t < xx < 50t of CO2 are checked to identify
leaks at least once a year.
Circuits containing 50t < xx < 500t di CO2 are checked to identify
leaks at least once every six months. ((EU) No. 517/2014 art. 4.3.a,
4.3.b).
d) For machines containing 5t CO2 ore more, the operator must keep a
record stating the quantity and type of refrigerant used, an quantities
added and that recovered during maintenance operations, repairs
and fi nal disposal ((EU) No. 517/2014 art. 6). .An example of this
record sheet can be downloaded from the site: www.polewr.com.
6.1 General instructions
!
Before any maintenance, make sure:
• the pneumatic circuit is no longer pressurized;
• the dryer is disconnected from the main power supply
Y
Always use the Manufacturer's original spare parts: otherwise the
Manufacturer is relieved of all liability regarding machine malfunctioning.
For models PST460 to PST1200 , in case of maintenance to the fl anged
air connections, replace the seals using only the spare parts indicated
in par. 8.4.
Y
In case of refrigerant leakage, contact qualifi ed and authorized per-
sonnel.
Y
The Schrader valve must only be used in case of machine malfunc-
tion: otherwise any damage caused by incorrect refrigerant charging will
not be covered by the warranty.
6.2 Refrigerant.
Charging: any damage caused by incorrect refrigerant replacement car-
ried out by unauthorized personnel will not be covered by the warranty.
Z
Y
The equipment contains fl uorinated greenhouse gases.
At normal temperature and pressure, the R407c refrigerant is a colour-
less gas classifi ed in SAFETY GROUP A1 - EN378 (group 2 fl uid accord-
ing to Directive PED 2014/68/EU)
GWP (Global Warming Potential) = 1774.
!
In case of refrigerant leakage, ventilate the room.
