7.3 Tests after long storage time (more than 12 months)

Note:
We recommend an inspection by the after-sales service of Systemair before commissioning.

Test the motor windings:

♦ Measure the insulation resistance of each motor winding against grounding at 500 V DC. The insulation resistance
must be > 10 mΩ.

Measures for an insulation resistance < 10 mΩ:

1. If the motor has drain plugs, remove them to allow any moisture to drain and replace them when the motor windings
are suitably dry.

| 007
16 | Installation

2. Dry the motor in a warm dry airflow (typically 40 degrees Celsius).

3. Measure the insulation resistance of each motor winding against grouding at 500 V DC.

Note:
For all other damage/defects, please contact Systemair. Defective safety-relevant fans (for Ex and smoke
extraction applications) must be replaced completely.

11.3 Maintenance
Warranty claims can only be made if maintenance work is carried out correctly and written evidence thereof is
provided.

We recommend regular maintenance intervals to ensure continuous fan operation. These maintenance intervals are
specified in the “Activities” table below. In addition, the operator must carry out follow-up activities such as cleaning,
replacing defective components or other corrective measures. For traceability reasons, a maintenance plan must be
created which documents the work carried out. This must be created by the operator. If the operating conditions are
"extreme", the maintenance intervals must be reduced so that maintenance is carried out more frequently. Examples
of extreme operating conditions:
• Fan unit in rare use (less than once a month)
• Fan used for emergency operation
• Ambient temperature > 40 ºC or < -10 ºC, or temperature fluctuations > 20 K
The following check list provides points of reference for the tasks to be carried out.

11.4 Variable-speed fans

Important
The fan may be destroyed due to unpermitted frequencies.
♦ Pay particular attention to damage from vibrations.
♦ After commissioning, start with shorter maintenance intervals.
♦ If no damage occurs, adjust the maintenance intervals up to the those stated in the operating
instructions.
♦ Responsibility for gradual adaptation is with the system operator.

28 | Cleaning

11.5 Overhaul/further maintenance

Pay attention to the safety references and preconditions as in normal maintenance. For the following activities and
functions, contact Systemair:

• complete overhaul of motors • monitoring of condition

• replacement of bearings • vibration analysis
• re-winding of motors

After 20,000 hours of operation or 5 years of normal operation

♦ Check the condition of the shaft sealing rings and shaft bearings and take action if necessary.

After 30,000 to 40,000 hours of operation

♦ The bearings must be replaced at the end of the grease service life (about 30,000 to 40,000 h in standard
applications).

Work before switching on again

♦ Attach all the safety and protective devices tightly and securely.
♦ Remove all the devices with which you have blocked the rotor.
♦ Remove all assembly residues and foreign bodies from the area around the fan unit.

11.6 Spare parts

♦ Use original spare parts from Systemair only.
♦ When ordering spare parts, please specify the serial number of the fan. This can be found on the name plate.

12 Cleaning

12.1 Safety information

♦ Cleaning may only be carried out by adequately qualified persons, details see Table 1 Qualifications, page 2.
♦ Observe the 5 rules of electrical safety, see 2.3 5 rules of electrical safety, page 2!

12.2 Preconditions
♦ The power supply has been switched off (all-pole circuit breaker).
♦ The impeller must be at a standstill.

13 Deinstallation/dismantling
Deinstall and dismantle the fan in reverse order of installation (7 Installation, page 15) and electrical connection (8 Elec-
trical connection, page 22).

14 Disposal
♦ Ensure material is recycled. Observe national regulations.
♦ The device and the transport packaging are predominantly made from recyclable raw materials.
♦ Disassemble the fan into its components.
♦ Separate the parts according to:
• reusable material
• material groups to be disposed of (metal, plastics, electrical parts, etc.)
