12.0 MAINTENANCE
The Liebert DS product is a single component in the facility heat removal system. The system
includes air distribution (raised floors, duct systems), outdoor heat rejection (condensers, pumps, dry-
coolers, cooling towers, piping, heat rejection fluid, ambient temperature, etc.) and indoor cooling and
humidity loads (equipment load, location, outside air infiltration). Proper application and mainte-
nance of the entire system is critical to the life and reliability of the Liebert DS.
• Good maintenance practices are essential to minimizing operation costs and maximizing product
life.
• Read and follow monthly and semi-annual maintenance schedules included in this manual. These
MINIMUM maintenance intervals may need to be more frequent based on site-specific conditions.
• See the iCom user manual, SL-18835, for instructions on how to utilize the unit controller to pre-
dict some service maintenance intervals.
• Emerson recommends the use of trained and authorized service personnel, extended service con-
tracts and factory-specified replacement parts. Contact your local Emerson representative.
12.1 Filters
To maximize the performance and reliability of Liebert DS equipment, use only Liebert filters. Con-
tact your local Emerson representative to order replacement filters.
