5.2 Maintenance and Inspection List
5.2.1 Daily Management
For the purpose of daily maintenance, check the items listed in Table 5-1 "Daily Inspection Items" and
record the results.
These operation data should be recorded in an operating log book on a daily basis. This practice is
significantly effective and helpful in finding out any abnormal condition of the compressor and prevents
possible compressor failures.
In particular, it is important to confirm the absence of any abnormality between the temperature and
pressure correlations related to the refrigerant evaporation and condensation. It is possible to find any
abnormal condition in the compressor or the system quickly by monitoring the evaporation and
condensation temperature and pressure.
If any compressor/system failure or operating accident occurs, the operating log book will help the
cause to be clear and take appropriate measures promptly.
