4.0 Maintenance
4.1 FBE2322 Enclosure Maintenance
Monthly, visually inspect the enclosure for any mechanical damage that may allow insect or rodent
ingress into the enclosure. Ensure fasteners and hinges are tightened and in a state of good repair
(free from rust, damage, etc.). Inspect insect screens for damage and replace if necessary. Clear away
any windblown dust or insect debris from inside the cabinets. Inspect and maintain batteries per the
manufacturer's recommendations.
Annually ensure that all electrical components are operable and in good repair. Repair or replace any
component that shows excessive sign of wear or breakdown per the manufacturer's recommendations.
4.2 FBE2322 Environmental Control Maintenance
4.2.1 FBE2322 Air Filter Replacement
For fan cooled applications, the system has directional filters that should be inspected for
cleaning or replacement every six months depending on time of year or environment. Clean the
filters by back flushing with water in the direction indicated on the filter and reinstall the filter.
Filter placement is directional.
4.2.2 FBE2322 Heat Exchanger
The filterless design of the Heat Exchanger provides long-term low maintenance operation.
Occasional cleaning of the vent openings may be necessary to clear insects or windblown debris.
If further maintenance is required please Contact Alpha Technical Support.
4.2.3 FBE2322 AC Air Conditioner
Ambient Air Filter: It is recommended that the ambient air filter be inspected and cleaned
regularly, at least every 3 to 6 months, or more frequently depending upon ambient conditions.
Refer to the ICEQube Maintenance Manual for detailed information about maintaining the
Ambient Air Filter.
Condensate Management System: The condensate management system should be checked
periodically for scale, sludge and debris that may cause the drip outlet to clog. Maintenance
of the condensate management system will require removal of electrical power from the Ice
Qube system. Unplug the AC power cord from the 120Vac 15A receptacle within the enclosure
and ensure that the ICEQube system is disconnected from power. Follow all instructions in the
ICEQube Manual for cleaning the Condensate Management System before reconnecting the air
conditioner to the power receptacle.
Alpha mounts the Air Conditioner Filter bracket for security. Using pin-in-hex screws and orienting
the filter bracket opening toward the enclosure door prevents unauthorized removal of the filter.
See page 36 for instructions on changing the filter and/or reorient the bracket for convenience.
