Maintenance Intervals

Adverse ambient conditions reduce maintenance intervals
Location and ambient conditions influence the maintenance intervals. In particular, cleaning and corrosion protection work may be required more frequently depending on the conditions at the installation site. Examples of adverse ambient conditions include storms, flooding, coastal location, or a site with high dust pollution levels.
- If the product is subject to adverse ambient conditions, a reduction of the maintenance intervals is recommended. Above all, the intervals between cleaning work and corrosion protection should be reduced.
- SMA recommends a monthly optical inspection to determine the maintenance requirement.

Testing the fire protection components in the installation room
With the indoor version, fire protection measures must be taken on-site in the installation room. The fire protection measures in the room must be tested regularly in accordance with statutory regulations.
