Crane Air Conditioner Selection and Installation Precautions
Matching: The appropriate air conditioner model and cooling capacity (usually calculated in kW or kcal) must be selected based on the size of the crane cab, glass area (sunlight intensity), local climate conditions, and the crane's power supply specifications.
Professional Crane Air Conditioner Installation:
Outdoor Unit Location: Choose a well-ventilated location, away from heat sources, easy to fix, and that will not affect the crane's balance and safe operation.
Pipeline Fixing: Refrigerant pipes and drain pipes must be securely fixed along the crane structure to prevent vibration and wear, and waterproofed and protected from sunlight.
Electrical Connection: Wiring must be standardized, with proper insulation and short-circuit protection. Ideally, an independent overload protection switch should be installed.
Crane Air Conditioner Maintenance:
Regularly clean the filter and condenser.
Check if the refrigerant pressure is normal.
Check if the compressor bracket and pipe joints are loose due to vibration.
It is best to perform a test run during off-seasons (such as winter).
Common Crane Air Conditioner Problems
Poor Cooling Effect: This may be due to refrigerant leakage, filter blockage, poor condenser heat dissipation, or compressor malfunction.
Not working: First check the power supply, fuses, and thermostat settings, then check if any protective switches have tripped.
Leaking: Usually caused by a blocked drain pipe or improper installation.
Summary:
Crane air conditioning is a key piece of equipment for ensuring the operator's work efficiency and health. When choosing, reliability, durability, and professional installation are more important than price. It is recommended to contact a professional special equipment air conditioning supplier or original equipment manufacturer (OEM) service provider such as Weihua Crane Group, which can provide integrated services from selection and installation to after-sales support.
