Packaged Rooftop Air Conditioners Voyager™(TS*150–300 ; TH*150-300): Monthly Maintenance

Cooling Season

• Check the unit’s drain pans and condensate piping to ensure that there are no blockages.

• Inspect the evaporator and condenser coils for dirt, bent fins, etc. If the coils appear dirty, clean them according to the instructions described in “Condenser Coil Cleaning,” p. 51.

• Manually rotate the condenser fan(s) to ensure free movement and check motor bearings for wear. Verify that all of the fan mounting hardware is tight.

• Inspect the F/A-R/A damper hinges and pins to ensure that all moving parts are securely mounted. Keep the blades clean as necessary.

• Verify that all damper linkages move freely; lubricate with white grease, if necessary.

• Check supply fan motor bearings; repair or replace the motor as necessary.

• Check the fan shaft bearings for wear. Replace the bearings as necessary.

• Check the supply fan belt. If the belt is frayed or worn, replace it. Refer to “Fan Belt Adjustment—Belt Drive Units,” p. 50 for belt replacement and adjustments.

• Verify that all wire terminal connections are tight.

• Remove any corrosion present on the exterior surfaces of the unit and repaint these areas.

• Generally inspect the unit for unusual conditions (e.g., loose access panels, leaking piping connections, etc.).

• Make sure that all retaining screws are reinstalled in the unit access panels once these checks are complete.

• With the unit running, check and record the: ambient temperature; compressor suction and discharge pressures (each circuit); superheat (each circuit); Record this data on an “operator’s maintenance log” like the one shown in Table 17, p. 50. If the operating pressures indicate a refrigerant shortage, measure the system superheat. For guidelines, refer to “Compressor Start-Up,” p. 36.

• Note: Do NOT release refrigerant to the atmosphere! If adding or removing refrigerant is required, the service technician must comply with all federal, state and local laws.

Heating Season

• Inspect the unit’s air filters. If necessary, clean or replace them.

• Check supply fan motor bearings; repair or replace the motor as necessary.

• Inspect both the main unit control panel and heat section control box for loose electrical components and terminal connections, as well as damaged wire insulation. Make any necessary repairs.
