DAILY
1.
Take temperature readings from the thermometers
and note down the temperature and the time of
reading.
Keep the temperature records systematically. It is
suggested that minimum 2 readings should be taken
(in the morning and afternoon) preferably at the same
hours of each day.
If the temperature is observed to be below or above
the required range, adjust the thermostat by steps,
allow the ILR to run for about one hour under
observation. If required, adjust the thermostat further
until the required temperature range is obtained.
To make the inside colder, the thermostat knob is to
be turned clockwise to a higher setting.
To make the inside warmer, the thermostat knob is to
be turned anti-clockwise to a lower setting.
2.
Check if the inner blower is running (by feeling the air
flow with your hand).
WEEKLY
1.
Check if ice formation has started around the
evaporator and the ice bank. Prepare for defrosting.
2.
Check if the gasket if not broken and if it seals tight
against the frame.
3.
Check if the ballast container in the lid is not frozen.
MONTHLY
1.
Clean the compressor compartment:
a) Put off the switch, if any, and take out the plug
from the wall socket.
b) Take out the side-cover of the compressor
compartment (see page 5, actions 1 ). Clean the
interior of the compressor compartment with a
soft brush.
c) Check the mounting brackets of compressor and
the bolts of the fan, if they are tight. If not, rectify.
d) Fit back the side cover (see page 8, actions 4)
2.
Clean the lid seal.
3.
If possible, put a standard mercury thermometer
inside the cabinet and compare the readings with
those of the dial thermometers and see if they are
correct.
Dial thermometers with incorrect readings may have
to be re-adjusted or replaced, as incorrect readings
may lead to wrong storage temperature and loss of
the potency of the vaccines preserved.
