There are several considerations for the maintenance of the oil cooler as follows.

1.The cooling water is purified fresh water.

2.To prevent scaling and improve the heat transfer coefficient, the cooling water temperature should be as low as possible and the water flow rate should be as large as possible.

3.In the cold season, in order to prevent the cooler heat transfer tube from freezing and cracking, the remaining oil and water in the cooler must be drained when it is out of use.

4.When the cooler is out of use for a long period of time, the oil side should be filled with (0.02 to 0.02) water. 02 a 0 . 04MPa) nitrogen gas.

5.Due to heat transfer tube wall dirt, oil cooler of long-term work led to heat transfer performance decline, must be regularly out of service cleaning, cleaning cycle depending on water quality, generally 6 ~ 12 months cleaning once, cleaning methods: the water side using clean high-speed water rinse, front and rear cover and heat transfer tube wall, can also use mechanical methods to clean the heat transfer tube wall, and then blow dry with compressed air; oil side using less than 0 . 5MPa trichloroethylene solution rinsing, solution flow direction and oil flow direction opposite, then rinse with water, and finally must use compressed air blowing dry. After the cleaning is completed, the air tightness test must be checked, and the water pressure test must be carried out before the small air separation unit can be put into operation.

1. Before hoisting, check and confirm whether the crane body, crane legs, lifting rigging and wire rope meet the safety requirements and hoisting conditions. 2. The hanging points of hoisting facilities shall be confirmed to prevent deviation and inclination; steel wire rope or sling shall be used for protection of edges and corners; sling and U-ring shall be used for lifting objects. 3. The commander shall use inter-phone for command, and special personnel shall be assigned for command, and the personnel shall stand at the position where the lifting object can be fully observed; warning isolation shall be set up in the hoisting area, and no one shall stand under the lifting object. 4. For large-scale hoisting, the hoisting safety scheme shall be formulated in combination with the company's special operation system.
