MAINTENANCE
Maintenance should only be performed by qualified
personnel
"Personnel qualification" p. 22
itable tools and working methods.
Use of non-specific spare parts
Genuine spare parts guarantee the reliability and sa-
fety of the operation of the fan: in the event of mainte-
nance/replacement, you must consult the spare parts
list and the part lists used and the relevant technical
documentation included in this manual.
In the event of replacement of safety devices,
it is necessary to maintain the operating and
safety characteristics of the original device,
giving priority to replacement with an identi-
cal component.
Lack of maintenance
A correct ordinary maintenance maintains the original
integrity or restore the efficiency of the fan itself, while
at the same time containing the normal degradation
deriving from the use.
Extraordinary maintenance can also extend the servi-
ce life of the machine and/or, alternatively, improve
efficiency, reliability, productivity, maintainability and
inspection.
Preliminary safety operations
Before cleaning and/or maintenance, the procedure
for securing the fan must be applied (lock-out – tag-
out).
1.
the motor power supply line by means of a bre-
aking switch and padlock it in position, to avoid
operating with the fan running and live electric
parts (lock-out).
2.
in case the distance between the breaking
switch and the fan does not allow the visibi-
lity of maintenance interventions, apply the
appropriate safety signs on the breaking switch:
"Machine under Maintenance"( tag-out).

3.
The capacitor in single-phase motors can main-
using su-
tain a charge that appears across the motor
terminals even when the motor is now sta-
tionary. Wait for approximately 10 minutes
after disconnecting the power line for a full
discharge.
4. lock the fan, to avoid any movement due to the
windmill effect.
5. in the event that maintenance work is required
in areas with reduced brightness, portable lamps
must be used to ensure adequate visibility for the
personnel involved in the operation.
During maintenance/cleaning in relation to specific ri-
sks, the following personal protective equipment must
be used:
Cut off
check that the electric power has been cut
off/isolated by means of a suitable voltage
meter.
