Cold Room Technical Service
Cold rooms and cold storages must operate uninterruptedly to maintain the freshness and safety of the products inside. Therefore, being informed about what to do in case of malfunction or maintenance is critical to preventing product losses.
■ Things to Consider in Case of Malfunction
The technical service called must be both complete in terms of equipment and competent in terms of expertise and experience.
It is important that all parts required for the repair of the system are available in the service vehicle so that the malfunction can be fixed in a short time.
Every minute disruption that may occur in the cooling system can pose a serious risk to the quality of the products inside.

Star and socket wrench sets
Allen set
Screwdriver sets

■ Fault Detection and Intervention
Service personnel must first correctly identify the source of the fault.
For example; Problems such as frequent digital panel burnout or gas leakage may be due to structural rather than superficial reasons.
Temporary interventions performed without finding the source of the fault do not provide a permanent solution.
■ Things to Consider During the Service Process
A technical report must be requested after the service.
This report should include details of the fault, interventions performed and recommended maintenance steps.
The quality of the spare parts used directly affects the life of the intervention performed.
An experienced service personnel, at least as much as technical knowledge, plays a major role in correct and rapid troubleshooting of faults.
