9 Routine Maintenance
9-1 Lubrication
Quarterly
Grease all blower bearings, fan and blower motors, and pump
motors that do not have permanently sealed bearings. Remove the
grease relief plug (motors only) before adding grease, add grease
until a small amount pours out, and replace the plug when finished.
Important!
Failure in removing the grease relief plug will result in dislodging the
bearing grease seal, eventually causing bearing failure!
Refrigeration compressors are hermetically sealed and no
lubrication is required.
9-2 Filter Cleaning
FSS Series Air-Cooled Models
Air filter cleaning is important to keep your FSS Series air-cooled
portable circulator operating at peak efficiency and capacity. Clean
the filters whenever they appear dirty, or at regularly scheduled
intervals.
To clean, turn the circulator off, slide the filter up off of the
retaining pins holding it in place along its bottom, tip the bottom of
the filter away from the chiller, and slide it down and out.
Wash down the filter with clean water (preferably with a garden
hose), directing the flow of water opposite the direction of airflow.
If dirt is heavy, use a mild detergent and rinse well. Allow the
filter to dry completely before replacing it on the chiller.
Note: AEC recommends keeping a spare air filter set on hand.
Install and use it while cleaning the filter(s).
Filter bags and sheets should be changed and/or checked
regularly. Operators can determine the time frame based on
the type of solution or inks being processed
