Check Parts Regularly
Inspect your big HVLS fans twice a year. Look for damage, like broken blades or loose parts. Check the motor and belts too. Keeping parts in good shape boosts performance and saves energy.
Clean and Adjust fan balance.
Cleaning and Adjusting the fan balance is key. Dust can slow down your fan. Use a brush or duster cloth for the blades and body. Use the leveling instrument to check if the fans are in balance, the fans should be parallel to the floor.
Lubricate
For the Gearmotor Fan, we need to follow the manual for oiling to lubricate the fans. This cuts friction and keeps the fan running smoothly. For the PMSM fans, there is no need to add oil.
