[Mainly outdoor parts and built-in components]
*The distinction between the indoor and outdoor assumes the air conditioner for a store and a multiple-air conditioner for a building. This may vary depending on the configuration of the unit, such as equipment air conditioner.
Explanation of symbols
: Conduct the cleaning and adjustment according to the inspection result
: In case of abnormality after inspection, replace or repair the corresponding part.
: Conduct the periodic replacement (consumable components)
: Random failure
: Wear-out failure
Note 1) Random fault is an unexpected failure which occurs before
the wear is progressed, within the service life of the parts and
equipment. It is difficult to establish a technological measure
against the random fault. At the moment, statistical handling is the
only measure against the random fault.
Note 2) The elapsed year marked with * assumes the operating time
as 10 hours/day and 2500 hours/year in a normal operating
condition without frequent start/stop. This may vary according to
the operating condition. Please check the calculation basis of the
elapsed year when making a maintenance contract.
Note 3)
illustrates the estimated timing when the wear-out
failure starts and how the failure rate increases as the time passes.
