Calibration requirement: - All equipment’s testing and commissioning shall be performed

with valid calibration certificates. All calibration certificates shall be submitted for CxA review
at least one week prior to each T&C activity being undertaken.

5. SAFETY

The following safety points must be taken care of while performing site acceptance test for AHU.

 GC/Vendor should ensure to provide the Safety helmets and shoes for
individual protection while standing in the perimeter of AHU in
operation.

 Areas of high risk must be properly secured.

 The Site should have First Aid workers. In case of emergency, quick
medical assistance must be provided.

 Before the Testing commences, the host must explain to all

individuals about the evacuation procedure in case of a fire or any
other incident.

 Proper illumination and a dust-free environment should be provided

to carry out the test.

 Lock-Out Tagout shall be provided for the charged equipment’s.

7. LEVEL 3 START UP TEST: -

7.1 General

Page 5 of 14 Independent Commissioning Services

 COMMISSIONING METHOD STATEMENT LEVEL -3
NOIDA – SECTOR 143

Undertake all necessary checks and complete the Testing & Commissioning Record as per this
method statement.
 Start Fan as per OEM's Recommendation.

7.2 AHU Start-Up Checks

 Test the AHU by using the AHU by-pass starter, Star Delta or DOL starter. On
activating the motor starter at initial start.

 The direction and speed of rotation of the motor shaft are correct.
 The VCD full open condition.

 The motor, blower, and drive are free from vibration and undue noise.

 The sequence timing adjustment of star-delta starters (≥10s), auto-transformer

starters (≥15s), etc. is set in line of motor starting current.

 The motor running current on all phases are balanced and do not exceed motor
nameplate rating. The discharge valve can be opened slowly and monitoring
the AHU running current is not over of the motor full load current.

 Record the AHU running current, voltage, suction/ discharge.

 There is no overheating of the motor.

 There is no seepage of the lubricant from the housing.

 The motor running current are matching with the speed as specified by manufacturer.

 After tested the AHU by-pass starter, test the AHU with VFD control.

 The VFD setting and all functional should be checked and tested with T&C
consultant during the SAT of MCC panel. The VFD shall be set at maximum
of 50 Hz while testing.

 Run the AHU with at maximum 50Hz, record the AHU running current,
voltage, input power factor, input harmonic at different running frequency.

 Check the motor, AHU and drive are free from vibration and undue noise.
