Important
Environmental Concerns!
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can affect the earth's naturally
occurring stratospheric ozone layer when released to the atmosphere. In particular, several of the
identified chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorine
and Carbon (CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (HCFCs). Not all
refrigerants containing these compounds have the same potential impact to the environment.
Trane advocates the responsible handling of all refrigerants-including industry replacements for
CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Responsible Refrigerant Practices!
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are important to the environment, our
customers, and the air conditioning industry. All technicians who handle refrigerants must be
certified. The Federal Clean Air Act (Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling,
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these
service procedures. In addition, some states or municipalities may have additional requirements
that must also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know the applicable
laws and follow them.
WARNING
Refrigerant warning information!
System contains oil and refrigerant under high pressure. Recover refrigerant to relieve pressure
before opening the system. See unit nameplate for refrigerant type. Do not use non-approved
refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or refrigerant additives.
Failure to follow proper procedures or the use of non-approved refrigerants, refrigerant
substitutes, or refrigerant additives could result in death or serious injury or equipment damage.
Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit components that are above
atmospheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by
following the guidelines established by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local
codes as appropriate. After refrigerant removal, use dry nitrogen to bring system back to
atmospheric pressure before opening system for repairs. Mixtures of refrigerants and air under
pressure may become combustible in the presence of an ignition source leading to an explosion.
Excessive heat from soldering, brazing or welding with refrigerant vapors present can form
highly toxic gases and extremely corrosive acids. Failure to follow all proper safe refrigerant
handling practices could result in death or serious injury.

General Information
Blower Coil General Information
Blower coil units are draw-thru air handlers for cooling load conditions of 400–3000 cfm. Units are
available in either horizontal (model BCHC) or vertical (model BCVC) configurations. Horizontal
units are typically ceiling suspended via threaded rods. Knockouts are provided in all four corners
to pass the rods through the unit. Horizontal units can also be floor mounted. Vertical units are
typically floor mounted. They have a side inlet for easy duct connection, and do not require a field
fabricated inlet plenum. Vertical units ship in two pieces and can be set up in either a pre-swirl or
counter-swirl configuration.
Basic unit components consist of a water coil, condensate drain pan, filter, duct collars, one fan
wheel, and motor with drive. See Figure 1. Drive components consist of sheaves, belt, and motor.
The coil, drain pan, and motor/drive assembly can easily be field-converted from right hand to left
hand configurations or vice versa.

all components for possible shipping damage. See the “Receiving Checklist” section (below) for
detailed instructions. Trane recommends leaving units and accessories in their shipping packages/
skids for protection and handling ease until installation.
Shipping Package
Blower coil air handlers ship assembled on skids with protective coverings over the coil and
discharge openings.
Ship-Separate Accessories
Field-installed sensors ship separately inside the unit’s main control panel. Piping packages,
mixing boxes, ship separately packaged on the same skid as the unit.
Receiving Checklist
Complete the following checklist immediately after receiving unit shipment to detect possible
shipping damage.
Inspect individual cartons before accepting. Check for rattles, bent carton corners, or other visible
indications of shipping damage.
If a unit appears damaged, inspect it immediately before accepting the shipment. Manually
rotate the fan wheel to ensure it turns freely. Make specific notations concerning the damage on
the freight bill. Do not refuse delivery.
Inspect the unit for concealed damage before it is stored and as soon as possible after delivery.
Report concealed damage to the freight line within the allotted time after delivery. Check with the
carrier for their allotted time to submit a claim.
Do not move damaged material from the receiving location. It is the receiver’s responsibility to
provide reasonable evidence that concealed damage did not occur after delivery.
Do not continue unpacking the shipment if it appears damaged. Retain all internal packing,
cartons, and crate. Take photos of damaged material if possible.
Notify the carrier’s terminal of the damage immediately by phone and mail. Request an
immediate joint inspection of the damage by the carrier and consignee.
Notify your Trane representative of the damage and arrange for repair. Have the carrier inspect
the damage before making any repairs to the unit.
Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with the ordering and shipping information
to verify the correct unit is received.
Jobsite Storage Recommendations
This unit is intended for indoor use only. To protect the unit from damage due to the elements and
prevent it from possibly becoming a contaminant source for IAQ problems, store the unit indoors.
If indoor storage is not possible, the Trane Company makes the following provisions for outdoor
storage:
1.Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raised off the ground to assure adequate air circulation
beneath unit and to assure that no portion of the unit contacts standing water at any time.
2.Cover the entire unit with a canvas tarp only. Do not use clear, black, or plastic tarps as they
may cause excessive moisture condensation and equipment damage.
Note: Wet interior unit insulation can become an amplification site for microbial growth (mold),
which may cause odors and health-related indoor air quality problems. If there is visible
evidence of microbial growth (mold) on the interior insulation, remove and replace the
insulation prior to operating the system.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN11
Pre-Installation
Installation Preparation
Before installing the unit, perform the following procedures to ensure proper unit operation.
1. Verify the floor or foundation is level. Shim or repair as necessary. To ensure proper unit
operation, install the unit level (zero tolerance) in both horizontal axes. Failure to level the unit
properly can result in condensate management problems, such as standing water inside the
unit. Standing water and wet surfaces inside units can result in microbial growth (mold) in the
drain pan that may cause unpleasant odors and serious health-related indoor air quality
problem.
2. Allow adequate service and code clearances as recommended in the “Service Access” section
(below). Position the unit and skid assembly in its final location. Test lift the unit to determine
exact unit balance and stability before hoisting it to the installation location.
Service Access
See Ta b le 1 , below, and Figure 2, p. 13 for recommended service and code clearances.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to
disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.

Rigging and Handling
Before preparing the unit for lifting, estimate the approximate center of gravity for lifting safety.
Because of placement of internal components, the unit weight may be unevenly distributed, with
more weight in the coil area. Approximate unit weights are given in “Dimensions and Weights,”
p. 15. Also, you may reference the unit weight on the unit nameplate.
Before hoisting the unit into position, use a proper rigging method such as straps, slings, or
spreader bars for protection and safety. Always test-lift the unit to determine the exact unit balance
and stability before hoisting it to the installation location.
WARNING
Improper Unit Lift!
Test lift unit approximately 24 inches to verify proper center of gravity lift point. To avoid
dropping of unit, reposition lifting point if unit is not level. Failure to properly lift unit could
result in death or serious injury or possible equipment or property-only damage.
Unit Handling Procedure
1. Position rigging sling under wood skid using spreader bars to avoid unit damage.
2. Use a forklift with caution to prevent unit damage. The fork length must be at least 68 inches
long to safely fork the unit from front or back.
3. The unit center of gravity will fall within the center of gravity block at various locations
depending on unit options.
4. See unit nameplate for unit weight.
Unit Location Recommendations
When selecting and preparing the unit installation location, consider the following
recommendations.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN13
Pre-Installation
1. Consider the unit weight. Reference the unit weight on the unit nameplate or in “Dimensions
and Weights,” p. 15.
2. Allow sufficient space for the recommended clearances, access panel removal, and
maintenance access. Refer to Figure 2, p. 13.
3. The installer must provide threaded suspension rods for ceiling mounted units. All units must
be installed level.
4. Coil piping and condensate drain requirements must be considered.
Allow room for proper ductwork and electrical connections. Support all piping and ductwork
independently of unit to prevent excess noise and vibration.
Skid Removal
The unit ships on skids that provide forklift locations from the front or rear. The skid allows easy
maneuverability of the unit during storage and transportation. Remove the skids before placing the
unit in its permanent location.
Remove the skids using a forklift or jack. Lift one end of the unit off of the skids. Vibration isolators
for external isolation are field supplied.
Pre-Installation Checklist

Installation Controls
Installing Wall Mounted Controls
Wall mounted zone sensors ship taped to the control box. Refer to Figure 3 for zone sensor
dimensions.
Position the controller on an inside wall three to five feet above the floor and at least 18 inches from
the nearest outside wall. Installing the controller at a lower height may give the advantage of
monitoring the temperature closer to the zone, but it also exposes the controller to airflow
obstructions. Ensure that air flows freely over the controller.
Before beginning installation, follow the wiring instructions below. Also, refer to the unit wiring
schematic for specific wiring details and point connections.
Wiring Instructions
Avoid mounting the controller in an area subject to the following conditions:
•Dead spots, such as behind doors or in corners that do not allow free air circulation.
•Air drafts from stairwells, outside doors, or unsectioned hollow walls.
•Radiant heat from the sun, fireplaces, appliances, etc.
•Airflow from adjacent zones or other units.
•Unheated or uncooled spaces behind the controller, such as outside walls or unoccupied
spaces.
•Concealed pipes, air ducts, or chimneys in partition spaces behind the controller.
Zone Sensor Installation
Follow the procedure below to install the zone sensor module (see Figure 3).

Communication Wiring
Units with Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only
Note: Communication link wiring is a shielded, twisted pair of wire and must comply with
Follow these general guidelines when installing communication wiring on units with either a
Tracer™ ZN510 or ZN520 controller:
•Maintain a maximum 5000 ft. aggregate run
•Install all communication wiring in accordance with the NEC and all local codes.
•Solder the conductors and insulate (tape) the joint sufficiently when splicing communication
wire. Do not use wire nuts to make the splice.
•Do not pass communication wiring between buildings because the unit will assume different
ground potentials.
•Do not run power in the same conduit or wire bundle with communication link wiring.
applicable electrical codes.
Service Communication Wiring
Establish service communication using Rover™ service software connected to the Tracer™ ZN
controller using a twisted wire pair to one of the following connection points:
•Remote zone sensor module
•Connections on the board
This allows the technician to view and edit the Tracer™ controller configuration and troubleshoot
the unit.
Note: Unit control options and field wiring practices may limit the controller’s communication
ability.
Route interconnecting wiring from the Tracer™ controller to provide service communication at the
wall-mounted zone sensor module. Install wiring by referencing the unit wiring diagram and
Ta b l e 12 , p . 2 9 for appropriate wire sizes. After wiring is complete, connect the communication
cable (provided with the Rover™ service tool) to the telephone style RJ11 connection on the zone
sensor module. Attach the other end of the cable to a computer running Trane Rover software to
communicate.
Zone Sensors Without Interconnecting Wiring
Establish service communication to the Tracer™ ZN controller by wiring directly to the board inside
the control box. Refer to the unit-wiring diagram for appropriate communication terminals on the
board.
Once wiring is complete, Use Trane Rover™ software to communicate to the Tracer™ ZN controller.
Tracer Communications
Tracer™ ZN controllers have Comm5 communication ports. Typically, a communication link is
applied between unit controllers and a building automation system. Communication also is
possible via Rover™, Trane’s service tool.
26 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Peer-to-peer communication across controllers is possible even when a building automation
system is not present.You do not need to observe polarity for Comm5 communication links.
The controller provides six 0.25-inch quick-connect terminals for the Comm5 communication link
connections, as follows:
•Two terminals for communication to the board
•Two terminals for communication from the board to the next unit (daisy chain)
•Two terminals for a connection from the zone sensor back to the controller
Each controller has its own unique address or I.D. number on a Neuron chip. Setting dip switches
are not required on the Tracer™ controller.
Tracer Summit Communication Wiring
For Tracer™ ZN-controlled units that will interface with the Trane Tracer Summit® building
management system, terminate the communication wiring in the control box at the designated
terminals on the board. Reference the unit wiring diagram or submittals.
Ground shields at each Tracer™ ZN controller, taping the opposite end of each shield to prevent
any connection between the shield and anther ground. Refer to Trane publication CNT-SVX04A-EN,
Tracer ZN.520 Unit Controller - Installation, Operation and Programming Guide, for the
communication wiring diagram.

All sensor and input circuits are normally at or near ground (common) potential. When wiring
sensors and other input devices to the Tracer™ ZN controller, avoid creating ground loops with
grounded conductors external to the unit control circuit. Ground loops can affect the measurement
accuracy of the controller.
Note: Unit transformer IT1 provides power to the blower coil unit only and is not intended for field
connections. Field connections to the transformer IT1 may cause immediate or premature
unit component failure.
All input/output circuits (except isolated relay contacts and optically-isolated inputs) assume a
grounded source, either a ground wire at the supply transformer to control panel chassis, or an
installer supplied ground.
Note: Do not connect any sensor or input circuit to an external ground connection.
The installer must provide interconnection wiring to connect wall mounted devices such as a zone
sensor module. Refer to the unit wiring schematic for specific wiring details and point-to-point
wiring connections. Dashed lines indicate field wiring on the unit wiring schematics. All
interconnection wiring must conform to NEC Class 2 wiring requirements and any state and local
requirements. Refer to Ta bl e 1 2 for the wire size range and maximum wiring distance for each
device.
Table 12. Zone sensor maximum wiring distances, ft (m)
Installation Electrical
Wire size rangeMax. wiring distance
16–22 AWG200 (60.96)
Note: Do not bundle or run interconnection wiring in parallel with or in the same conduit with any
high voltage wires (110V or greater). Exposure of interconnection wiring to high voltage
wiring, inductive loads, or RF transmitters may cause radio frequency interference (RFI). In
addition, improper separation may cause electrical noise problems. Therefore, use shielded
wire (Beldon 83559/83562 or equivalent) in applications that require a high degree of noise
immunity. Connect the shield to the chassis ground and tape at the other end.
Minimum Circuit Ampacity (MCA) and Maximum Fuse Size (MFS) Calculations
for Units with Electric Heat
Use these formulas to calculate the MCA and MFS.
Heater amps = (heater kW x 1000)/heater voltage
Note: Use 120V heater voltage for 115V units. Use 240V heater voltage for 230V units. Use 480V
heater voltage for 460V units. Use 600V heater voltage for 575V units.
MCA = 1.25 x (heater amps + all motor FLAs)
MFS or HACR type circuit breaker = (2.25 x largest motor FLA) + second motor FLA + heater amps
(if applicable)
HACR (Heating, Air-Conditioning and Refrigeration) type circuit breakers are required in the branch
circuit wiring for all units with electric heat.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN29
Installation Electrical
See Ta b le 1 3 for electric heat kW and Table 14, p. 31 for motor FLAs.
Select a standard fuse size or HACR type circuit breaker equal to the MCA.
Use the next larger standard size if the MCA does not equal a standard size.
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to
disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
Installing the Unit
Follow the procedures below to install the blower coil unit.

The mixing box option ships separately for field installation. It has two low-leak, opposed blade
dampers and all necessary interconnecting linkage components for left or right hand attachment
onto 1/2-inch O.D. grooved, extendible drive rods. Also, mounting legs are provided for floor
mounting on a vertical unit. Knockouts are provided to suspend the mixing box from the ceiling
horizontally.
Mixing Box Installation Procedure
1. Support the mixing box independent of the unit in the horizontal position.
2. Install the mixing box as a sleeve around the duct collar of the filter frame. To attach the mixing
box to the filter frame, insert screws through the matching the holes on all sides of the mixing
box and filter frame.
3. Install the linkage, following the procedure below.
Linkage Installation Procedure
1. Attach the linkage on either the right or left side of the mixing box following the procedure
below.
2. Open the damper blades fully. Locate drive rods on the LH or RH side for linkage attachment.
Loosen drive rod set screw, without removing.
3. Remove knockouts on side access panel adjacent to the drive rods.
4. Pierce a hole through the insulation at the knockouts to allow the drive rod to extend freely
through side of mixing box. Cut away insulation sufficiently to allow drive rod to turn smoothly.
5. Extend drive rod end at desired position beyond side of unit. Tighten drive rod set screws.
6. Attach linkage and tighten all set screws. Note that neither hand levers are provided. However,
mixing box actuators are a factory-provided option that ship inside the mixing box when
ordered.
7. Position linkage so both sets of dampers operate freely and so that when one damper is fully
open, the other is fully closed.
Condensate Drain Connections
Note: It is the installer’s responsibility to provide adequate condensate piping to prevent potential
water damage to the equipment and/or building.
Size the main drain lines and trap them the same size as the drain connection, which is 3/4”
schedule 40 PVC, 1.050” O.D. on blower coils.
If drain pan removal is required, make the main and auxiliary drain connections with compression
fittings. Follow the procedure below to remove the drain pan.
1. Remove the opposite side coil access panel.
2. Remove the drain pan clips.
3. Disconnect drain lines.
4. Remove the sheet metal screw.
5. Pull out drain pan through the opposite side.
Note: Prime drain traps to prevent the drain pan overflow.
36 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Installation Mechanical
Plug or trap the auxiliary connection to prevent air from being drawn in and causing carryover (see
Figure 8).
Figure 8. Recommended drain trap installation for draw-through units
‘
H = 1” of length for each 1” of negative pressure + 1”additional
J = 1/2 of H
L = H + J + pipe diameter + insulation
All drain lines downstream of the trap must flow continuously downhill. If segments of the line are
routed uphill, this can cause the drain line to become pressurized. A pressurized drain line may
cause the trap to back up into the drain pan, causing overflow.
Duct Connections
Install all air ducts according to the National Fire Protection Association standards for the
“Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilation Systems other than Residence Type (NFPA 90A)
and Residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems (NFPA 90B).
Make duct connections to the unit with a flexible material such as heavy canvas to help minimize
noise and vibration. If a fire hazard exists, Trane recommends using Flexweave 1000, type FW30
or equivalent canvas. Use three inches for the return duct and three inches for the discharge duct.
Keep the material loose to absorb fan vibration.
Run the ductwork straight from the opening for a minimum of 1-1/2 fan diameters. Extend
remaining ductwork as far as possible without changing size or direction. Do not make abrupt turns
or transitions near the unit due to increased noise and excessive static losses. Avoid sharp turns
and use elbows with splitters or turning vanes to minimize static losses.
Poorly constructed turning vanes may cause airflow generated noise. Align the fan outlet properly
with the ductwork to decrease duct noise levels and increase fan performance. Check total external
static pressures against fan characteristics to be sure the required airflow is available throughout
the ductwork.
To achieve maximum acoustical performance, minimize the duct static pressure setpoint.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN37
Installation Piping
Water Coil Connections
Water coils have sweat connections. Reference coil connection dimensions in “Dimensions and
Wei ght s,” p. 1 5. Proper installation and piping is necessary to ensure satisfactory coil operation and
prevent operational damage. Water inlet and outlet connections extend through the coil section
side panel (see Figure 9). Follow standard piping practices when piping to the coil.
Figure 9. Horizontal unit coil connect location
NOTICE
Potential coil-freeze condition!
Make provisions to drain the coil when not in use to prevent coil freeze-up. Failure to follow this
procedure could result in equipment/property damage.
Piping Packages
Piping packages ship separate for field installation and have sweat type connections.
Interconnecting piping is field provided.
When brazing piping, follow these guidelines to prevent piping component damage.
1. Avoid exposing piping components to high heat when making sweat connections.
2. Protect the closest valve to the connection with a wet rag.
3. Ensure the circuit balancing valve option is in the unseated position.
Refrigerant Coil Piping
The DX cooling coil in a BCHC/BCVC unit is equipped with a single distributor (single-circuited).
Exception: size 72 and 90 six-row DX cooling coils are horizontally split and have two distributors
(double-circuited) which may be manifolded to a single refrigeration circuit in a condensing unit.
Some condensing units have two, independent refrigeration circuits. Do not manifold two,
independent refrigeration circuits into a single-circuited DX (evaporator) coil.
Note: Refer to “Warnings, Cautions and Notices” for information on handling refrigerants.
Units that are UL listed shall not have refrigerant temperatures and pressures exceeding that listed
on the unit nameplate.
Follow accepted refrigeration piping practices and safety precautions for typical refrigerant coil
piping and components. Specific recommendations are provided with the compressor unit,
including instructions for pressure-testing, evacuation, and system charging. Leak test the entire
refrigerant system after all piping is complete. Charge the unit according to approximate weight
requirements, operating pressures, and superheat/subcooling measurements. Adjust the thermal
expansion valve setting, if necessary, for proper superheat.
Liquid Line
Line Sizing. Properly sizing the liquid line is critical to a successful application. If provided, use
the liquid line size recommended by the manufacturer of the compressor unit. The selected tube
38 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Installation Piping
diameter must be as small as possible, while still providing at least 5°F [2.7°C] of subcooling at the
expansion valve throughout the operating envelope.
Routing. Install the liquid line with a slight slope in the direction of flow so that it can be routed
with the suction line. Minimize tube bends and reducers because these items tend to increase
pressure drop and reduce subcooling at the expansion valve.
Insulation. The liquid line is generally warmer than the surrounding air, so it does not require
insulation.
Components. Liquid-line refrigerant components necessary for a successful job include an
expansion valve, moisture indicating sight glass, filter drier, manual ball shutoff valves, access
port, and possibly a solenoid valve. Position these components as close to the evaporator as
possible.
•Thermal expansion valve (TEV)
Select the TEV based on the actual evaporator capacity, considering the full range of loadings.
Verify that the valve will successfully operate at the lightest load condition, considering if hot
gas bypass is to be used. For improved modulation, choose a TEV with balanced port
construction and an external equalizer connection. The valve must be designed to operate
against a back pressure of 20 psi higher than actual evaporator pressure. Install the TEV directly
on the coil liquid connection (distributor provided).
The remote expansion-valve bulb should be firmly attached to a straight, well-drained,
horizontal section of the suction line. The external equalizer line should be inserted
downstream of the remote bulb.
•Moisture-indicating sight glass
Install a moisture-indicating sight glass in the liquid line between the expansion valve and filter
drier. The sight glass should be sized to match the size of the liquid line.
•Filter drier
Install a properly sized liquid line filter-drier upstream from the expansion valve and as close
to the evaporator coil as possible. Select the filter-drier for a maximum pressure drop of 2 psi
at the design condition.
Manual, ball-type shutoff valves on either side of the filter drier allows replacement of the core
without evacuating the entire refrigerant charge.
•Access port
The access port allows the unit to be charged with liquid refrigerant and is used to determine
subcooling. This port is usually a Schraeder valve with a core.
•Solenoid valve
If required by the compressor unit, install the solenoid valve between the filter drier and sight
glass.
NOTICE
Valve Dam age !
Disassemble the thermal expansion valve before completing the brazing connections. If
necessary, wrap the valve in a cool wet cloth while brazing. Failure to protect the valve from
high temperatures could damage internal components.
Suction Line
Line sizing. Properly sizing the suction line is critical for ensuring that the oil returns to the
compressor throughout the system operating envelope. If provided, use the suction line size(s)
recommended by the manufacturer of the compressor unit. The selected tube diameter(s) must
maintain adequate refrigerant velocities at all operating conditions.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN39
Installation Piping
Routing. To prevent residual or condensed refrigerant from “free-flowing” toward the
compressor, install the suction line so it slopes slightly—1 inch per 10 feet of run [1 cm per 3 m]—
toward the evaporator. Avoid putting refrigerant lines underground. Refrigerant condensation,
installation debris inside the line, service access, and abrasion/corrosion can quickly impair system
reliability.
Insulation. After operating the system and testing all fittings and joints to verify the system is
leak-free, insulate the suction lines to prevent heat gain and unwanted condensation.
Components. Installing the suction line requires field installation of these components: an
access port and possibly a suction filter. Position them as close to the compressor as possible.
•Access port
The access port is used to determine suction pressure and adjust the TEV. It should be located
near the external equalizer line connection. This port is usually a Schraeder valve with a core.
•Suction filter
If required by the compressor unit, a replaceable-core suction filter is installed as close to the
compressor unit as possible. Adding manual, ball-type shutoff valves upstream and
downstream of the filter simplifies replacement of the filter core.
Field-Installing Evaporator Piping
See Figure 10 and refer to the instructions below to field-install evaporator piping.
1. Pitch the liquid line slightly—1 in./10 ft [1 cm/3 m]—so that the refrigerant drains toward the
evaporator.
2. Provide one expansion valve per distributor.
3. Slightly pitch the outlet line from the suction header toward the suction riser — that is, 1 in./10
ft [1 cm/3 m] in the direction of flow. Use the tube diameter that matches the suction-header
connection.
4. For the vertical riser, use the tube diameter recommended by the condensing unit
manufacturer. Assure the top of the riser is higher than the evaporator coil.
5. Arrange the suction line so the refrigerant vapor leaving the coil flows downward, below the
suction-header outlet, before turning upward.
6. Pitch the suction line slightly—1 in./10 ft [1 cm/3 m]—so the refrigerant drains toward the
evaporator.
7. Insulate the suction line.

Steam Piping
Installation Piping
Proper installation, piping and trapping is necessary to insure satisfactory heating coil operation
and prevent operational damage under service conditions. These installation recommendations
and piping diagram (see Figure 11, p. 42) must be followed to assure satisfactory, trouble-free
operation.
General
1. Support all piping independently of coils.
2. Provide swing joints or flexible fittings in all piping connections adjacent to heating coils to
absorb expansion and contraction strains.
3. Install coils so air passes through fins in proper direction (stenciled on top of coil channel).
Steam Coils
NOTICE
Coil Condensate!
Condensate must flow freely from the coil at all times to prevent coil damage from water
hammer, unequal thermal stresses, freeze-up and/or corrosion. In all steam coil installations, the
condensate return connections must be at the low point of the coil. Failure to follow these
instructions could result in equipment damage.
1. Install 1/2-inch 15-degree swing check vacuum breaker in unused condensate return tapping as
close as possible to coil. Vent vacuum breaker line to atmosphere or connect into return main
at discharge side of steam trap. Vacuum relief is particularly important when coil is controlled
by modulating steam supply or two-position (on-off) automatic steam supply valve.
2. Proper steam trap selection and installation is necessary for satisfactory coil performance and
service life.
a. Select trap based on maximum possible condensate rate and recommended load factors.
b. Locate steam trap discharge at least 12 inches below condensate return tapping. This
provides sufficient hydrostatic head pressure to overcome trap losses and assure complete
condensate removal.
c. Float and thermostatic traps are preferred because of gravity drain and continuous
discharge operation.
d. Use float and thermostatic traps with atmospheric pressure gravity condensate return with
automatic controls or where possibility of low pressure supply steam exists.
e. Bucket traps should only be used when supply steam is unmodulated and 25 psig or higher.
f. When installed with series airflow, size traps for each coil using capacity of first coil in airflow
direction.
g. Always trap each coil separately to prevent condensate holdup in one or more coils.
h. Always install strainers as close as possible to inlet side of trap.
3. Use V-port modulating valves to obtain gradual modulating action or slow opening 2-position
valves to prevent steam hammer.
Note: Contact the factory for recommendations regarding steam coil valve selections
compatible with Tracer™ ZN controllers.
4. Use normally-open non-modulating control valves if coils are exposed to freezing air.
Note: Contact the factory for recommendations regarding steam coil valve selections
compatible with Tracer™ ZN controllers.
5. Control each coil bank separately when installing coils for series airflow with automatic steam
control valves.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN41
Installation Piping
6. Do not modulate steam or use on-off supply control on systems with overhead or pressurized
returns unless condensate is drained by gravity to receiver (vented to atmosphere) and
returned to main by condensate pump.
7. At startup with dampers, slowly turn steam on full for at least 10 minutes before opening fresh
air intake.
8. Pitch all supply and return steam piping down a minimum of one inch per 10 feet in direction
of flow.
9. Do not drain steam mains or take-offs through coils. Drain mains ahead of coils through steam
trap to return line.
10. Do not bush or reduce coil return tapping size. Run return pipe full size of steam trap connection
except for short nipple screwed directly into coil condensate connection.
11. Overhead returns require 1 psig pressure at steam trap discharge for each 2-foot elevation to
assure continuous condensate removal.

Controls Interface
Control Options
Blower coil air handlers are available without controls or with one of four different control options:
•Control interface
•Tracer™ ZN010
•Tracer ZN510
•Tracer ZN520
Units without controls have a junction box mounted on the drive side for motor power wire
terminations. The controller is easily accessible in the control box for service. Control option
descriptions follow below.
Control Interface
The control interface is for use with a field–supplied low voltage thermostat. It includes a control
box with a transformer, motor contactor, and disconnect switch. All hot leads to the motor are
disconnected at the contactor and disconnect switch to eliminate the risk of shock during service.
The end devices are mounted with the wires pulled and terminated inside the two-sided terminal
strip. All customer connections other than power are on the outside of the two-sided terminal strip.
Tracer Controllers
The Tracer™ family of controllers—ZN010, ZN510, and ZN520—offer the combined advantages of
simple and dependable operation with the latest Trane-designed controller. Standard control
features include options normally available on more elaborate control systems. All control options
are available factory-configured or can be field-configured using Rover™ service software. For
more detailed information, refer to Trane publication CNT-IOP-1, Installation, Operation, and
Programming Guide (for ZN010 or ZN510), or CNT-SVX04A-EN, Installation, Operation, and
Programming Guide (for ZN520).
Tr a c e r Z N 010
Tracer™ ZN010 is a stand-alone microprocessor controller.
Tracer ZN510 and ZN520
The Tracer™ ZN510 controller can be used as either a standalone or as part of a Trane Integrated
Comfort™ System (ICS).
Figure 12. ZN510 control board Figure 13. ZN520 control board
In the stand-alone configuration, ZN510 or 520 receives operation commands from the zone sensor
and/or the auto changeover sensor (on auto changeover units). ZN520 also receives commands
from the discharge air sensor. The entering water temperature is read from the auto changeover
sensor and determines if the unit is capable of cooling or heating. The zone sensor module is
capable of transmitting the following information to the controller:
•Timed override on/cancel request
BCXC-SVX01B-EN43
Controls Interface
•Zone setpoint
•Current zone temperature
•Fan mode selection (off-auto-high-low)
For optimal system performance, blower coil units can operate as part of an Integrated Comfort™
System (ICS) building automation system controlled by Tracer Summit®. The controller is linked
directly to the Summit control panel via a twisted pair communication wire, requiring no additional
interface device (i.e., a command unit). The Trane ICS system can monitor or override ZN520
control points. This includes such points as temperature and output positions.
Rover Service Software
This windows-based software package option allows field service personnel to easily monitor,
save, download, and configure Tracer™ controllers through a communication link from a portable
computer. When connected to the communication link, Rover™ can view any Tracer controller that
is on the same communication link.

3. Rotate the setpoint dial on the zone sensor module to 55°F for cooling or 85°F for heating.
The appropriate control valve will actuate assuming the following conditions:
1. Room temperature should be greater than 55°F and less than 85°F.
2. For a two-pipe unit with an automatic changeover sensor, the water temperature input is
appropriate for the demand placed on the unit. For example, cooling operation is requested and
cold water (5° lower than room temperature) flows into the unit.
3. Select the correct temperature setpoint.
Note: Select and enable zone sensor temperature settings to prevent freeze damage to unit.
Power-Up Sequence
When 24 VAC power is initially applied to the Tracer™ ZN controller, the following sequence occurs:
•all outputs are controlled off
•Tracer reads all input values to determine initial values,
•the random start time (0–25 seconds) expires, and
•normal operation begins.
Tracer ZN Modes of Operation
Tracer™ ZN controllers operate the fan in one of the modes listed below as noted:
•occupied
•unoccupied
•occupied standby (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only)
•occupied bypass
•Tracer Summit® with supply fan control (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only)
Note: The Tracer™ ZN520 controller operates the supply fan continuously when the controller is
in the occupied and occupied standby modes, for either heating or cooling. The controller
only cycles the fan off with heating and cooling capacity in the unoccupied mode.
When the communicated occupancy request is unoccupied, the occupancy binary input (if present)
does not affect the controller’s occupancy. When the communicated occupancy request is
occupied, the controller uses the local occupancy binary input to switch between the occupied and
occupied standby modes.
Occupancy Sources
There are four ways to control the Tracer™ ZN controller’s occupancy, as noted below:
1. By pressing the zone sensor’s timed override “on” button
2. Occupancy binary input, either normally open or normally closed, see Ta b le 1 8 for occupancy
sensor states
48 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Start-Up
3. Default operation of the controller (occupied mode)
4. Communicated request, usually provided by the building automation system (BAS) or peer
device (available on Tracer™ ZN510 and ZN520 only)
A communicated request will control the controller’s occupancy. Typically, this request comes from
the BAS time-of-day scheduling to the controller. However, if a communication request from a BAS
or peer controller is lost, the controller reverts to the default operating mode (occupied) after 15
minutes (configurable, specified by the “receive heartbeat time”), if no local hardwired occupancy
signal exists.
If the unit is communicating with Tracer Summit® and the supply fan control programming point
is configured for Tracer™ (the factory configures as local), then Tracer Summit will control the fan
regardless of the fan mode switch position.
For complete information about Tracer Summit® application setup using the Tracer™ ZN
controller, see the Tracer Summit product literature. For more information on the setup of another
BAS, refer to the product-specific literature from that manufacturer.
Occupied Mode
When the controller is in the occupied mode, the unit attempts to maintain the space temperature
at the active occupied heating or cooling setpoint, based on the:
•measured space temperature,
•the discharge air temperature (Tracer™ ZN520 only),
•the active setpoint, and
•the proportional/integral control algorithm.
The modulating control algorithm used when occupied or in occupied standby is described in the
following sections. Additional information related to the handling of the controller setpoints can
be found in the previous setpoint operation section.
Note: Heating and cooling setpoint high and low limits are always applied to the occupied and
occupied standby setpoints.
Unoccupied Mode
When the controller is in the unoccupied mode, the controller attempts to maintain space
temperature at the stored unoccupied heating or cooling setpoint based on the:
•measured space temperature,
•active setpoint, and
•control algorithm, regardless of the presence of a hardwired or communicated setpoint.
Similar to other controller configuration properties, the locally stored unoccupied setpoints can be
modified using Rover™ service tool.
During cooling mode, when the space temperature is above the cool setpoint, the primary cooling
capacity operates at 100%. If more capacity is needed, the supplementary cooling capacity turns
on (or opens to 100%).
During heating mode, when the space temperature is below the heat setpoint, the primary heating
capacity turns on. All capacity turns off when the space temperature is between the unoccupied
cooling and heating setpoints. Note that primary heating or cooling capacity is defined by the unit
type and whether heating or cooling is enabled or disabled. For example, if the economizer is
BCXC-SVX01B-EN49
Start-Up
enabled (Tracer™ ZN520 only) and possible, it is the primary cooling capacity. If hydronic heating
is possible, it will be the primary heating capacity.
Occupied Standby Mode (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only)
The controller can be placed into the occupied standby mode when a communicated occupancy
request is combined with the local (hardwired) occupancy binary input signal.
During occupied standby mode, the Tracer™ ZN520 controller’s economizer damper position goes
to the economizer standby minimum position.
Note: The economizer standby minimum position can be changed using Rover™ service tool.
In the occupied standby mode, the controller uses the occupied standby cooling and heating
setpoints. Because the occupied standby setpoints typically cover a wider range than the occupied
setpoints, the controller reduces heating/cooling demand for the space. Also, units with Tracer™
ZN520 and the fresh air economizer damper use the economizer standby minimum position to
reduce heating and cooling demand.
When no occupancy request is communicated, the occupancy binary input switches the
controller’s operating mode between occupied and unoccupied. When no communicated
occupancy request exists, the unit cannot switch to occupied standby mode.
Occupied Bypass Mode, Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 Only
The controller can be placed in occupied bypass mode by either communicating an occupancy
bypass request to the controller or by using the timed override “on” button on the zone sensor.
When the controller is in unoccupied mode, pressing the “on” button will place the controller into
occupied bypass mode for the duration of the bypass time (typically 120 minutes).
Tracer Summit With Supply Fan Control, Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 Only
All Tracer™ ZN lockouts (latching diagnostics) are manually reset whenever the fan mode switch
is set to the off position or when power is restored to the unit. The last diagnostic to occur is retained
until the unit power is disconnected. Refer to Trane publication CNT-SVX04A-EN, Installation, Operation, and Programming Guide, for specific Tracer ZN520 operating procedures.
Cooling Operation
During cooling mode, the Tracer™ ZN controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the
active cooling setpoint. Based on the controller’s occupancy mode, the active cooling setpoint is
either the:
•occupied cooling setpoint,
•occupied standby cooling setpoint (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only), or
•unoccupied cooling setpoint.
The controller uses the measured space temperature, the active cooling setpoint, and discharge air
temperature (Tracer™ ZN520 only) along with the control algorithm to determine the requested
cooling capacity of the unit (0–100%). The outputs are controlled based on the unit configuration
and the required cooling capacity. To maintain space temperature control, the cooling outputs
(modulating or 2-position hydronic valve, or economizer damper) are controlled based on the
cooling capacity output.
Note: Economizer dampers and modulating valves are only available on units with the Tracer™
Cooling output is controlled based on the cooling capacity. At 0% capacity, all cooling capacities
are off and the damper is at minimum position. Between 0 and 100% capacity, the cooling outputs
are controlled according to modulating valve logic (Tracer™ ZN520 only) or cycled with 2-position
valves. As the load increases, modulating outputs open further and binary outputs are energized
longer. At 100% capacity, the cooling valve or damper is fully open (modulating valves) or on
continuously (2-position valves).
ZN520 controller. Two-position dampers are only available on units with Tracer ZN010 and
ZN510.

Start-Up
Note: Unit diagnostics can affect fan operation, causing occupied and occupied standby fan
operation to be defined as abnormal. Refer to “Troubleshooting,” p. 72 for more information
about abnormal fan operation.
Economizer Cooling (Tracer ZN520 Only)
The economizer provides cooling whenever the outdoor temperature is below the economizer
enable setpoint and there is a need for cooling. The economizer operates to meet the space
demand, with other forms of cooling enabling when the economizer cannot meet the demand
alone. See economizer air damper operation for additional information.
DX Cooling (Tracer ZN520 only)
The controller does not use both the DX compressor and the economizer at the same time. This
prevents problems where the entering air temperature is too low for the evaporator coil to operate
as designed, which leads to compressor short cycling due to low discharge air temperatures.
Discharge Air Tempering (Tracer ZN520 Only)
Cascade cooling control initiates a discharge air tempering function if:
•the discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air temperature control low limit,
•all cooling capacity is at minimum, and
•the discharge control loop determines a need to raise the discharge air temperature.
The controller then provides heating capacity to raise the discharge air temperature to its low limit.
The discharge air tempering function enables when cold, fresh air is brought in through the fresh
air damper and causes the discharge air to fall below the discharge air temperature control low
limit. The controller exits the discharge air tempering function when heat capacity has been at 0%
for five minutes.
Heating Operation
During heating mode, the Tracer™ ZN controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the
active heating setpoint. Based on the controller’s occupancy mode, the active heating setpoint can
be:
•occupied heating,
•occupied standby heating (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 only), or
•unoccupied heating.
Note: Unit diagnostics can affect the controller operation, causing unit operation to be defined as
abnormal. Refer to “Troubleshooting,” p. 72 for more information about abnormal unit
operation.
Heating output is controlled based on the heating capacity. At 0% capacity, the heating output is
off continuously. Between 0 and 100% capacity, the heating output is controlled according to
modulating valve logic (ZN520 only) or cycled with 2-position valves. As the load increases,
modulating outputs open further and binary outputs are energized longer. At 100% capacity, the
modulating valve is fully open (Tracer™ ZN520 only) or on continuously with 2-position valves.
Economizer Damper (Tracer ZN520 Only)
The economizer damper option is never used for as a source for heating, but only for ventilation.
Therefore, the damper is at the occupied minimum position in the occupied mode. The damper
control is primarily associated with occupied fan operation.
Dehumidification (Tracer ZN520 only)
During dehumidification, the Tracer™ ZN520 controller adjusts the heating setpoint up to the
cooling setpoint. This reduces the relative humidity in the space with a minimum of energy usage.
The controller uses the measured space temperature, the active heating setpoint, and discharge
air temperature (Tracer™ ZN520 only) along with the control algorithm, to determine the requested
BCXC-SVX01B-EN51
Start-Up
heating capacity of the unit (0–100%). The outputs are controlled based on the unit configuration
and the required heating capacity.
Fan Mode Operation
WARNING
Rotating Components!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to
disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
For multiple fan speed applications, the Tracer™ ZN controller offers additional fan configuration
flexibility. See Ta b le 1 9 for fan operation sequences. Separate default fan speeds for heating and
cooling modes can be configured using Rover™ service software.

During unoccupied mode, the fan cycles between high speed and off with heating and cooling fan
modes. If the requested speed is off, the fan always remains off.

Start-Up
Additional flexibility built into the controller allows you to enable or disable the local fan switch
input. The fan mode request can be hardwired to any of the Tracer™ ZN controllers or
communicated to the Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 controller. When both inputs are present, the
communicated request has priority over the hardwired input. See Tab l e 19 , p . 5 2 .
Fan Speed Switch

Auto (Fan Cycling). Fan and fresh air damper cycle with control valve option to maintain
setpoint temperature. If the unit has a 2-speed fan, in cooling mode the fan cycles from off to high
and in heating mode it cycles from off to low (factory default that can be field-adjusted using
Rover™ service software). When no heating or cooling is required, the fan is off and the fresh air
damper option closes. Units with 2-speed fans can also be field-configured using Rover to run at
a defined speed when the fan speed switch is in the auto position.
Low or High (Continuous Fan). Fan operates continuously while control valve option cycles to
maintain setpoint temperature. Fresh air damper option is open.
Tracer ZN520
Off. Fan is off; control valve options and fresh air damper options close. The low air temperature
detection option is still active.
Auto. Fan speed control in the auto setting allows the modulating (three-wire floating point)
control valve option and single or two-speed fan to work cooperatively to meet precise capacity
requirements, while minimizing fan speed (motor/energy/acoustics) and valve position (pump
energy/chilled water reset). As the capacity requirement increases at low fan speed, the water valve
opens. When the low fan speed capacity switch point is reached, the fan switches to high speed and
the water valve repositions to maintain an equivalent capacity. The reverse sequence takes place
with a decrease in required capacity.
Units with 2-speed fans on low or high. The fan will run continuously at the selected speed
and the valve option will cycle to meet setpoint.
Continuous Fan Operation
During occupied and occupied standby modes, the fan normally is on. For multiple speed fan
applications, the fan normally operates at the selected or default speed (off, high, or low). When
fan mode is auto, the fan operates at the default fan speed.
During unoccupied mode, the fan is off. While unoccupied, the controller will heat or cool to
maintain the unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints. In unoccupied mode, the fan runs on high
speed only, with heating or cooling. See Table 24, p. 55.
The unit fan is always off during occupied, occupied standby, and unoccupied modes when the unit
is off due to a diagnostic or when the unit is in the off mode due to the local zone sensor module,
a communicated request, or the default fan speed (off).
If both a zone sensor module and communicated request exist, the communicated request has
priority. See Tab l e 2 3, p . 5 5.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN53
Start-Up
Fan Cycling Operation
Tracer™ ZN520 does not support fan cycling in occupied mode. The fan cycles between high speed
and off in the unoccupied mode only. The controller’s cascade control algorithm requires
continuous fan operation in the occupied mode.
Fan Off Delay
When a heating output is controlled off, the Tracer™ ZN controller automatically holds the fan on
for an additional 30 seconds. This 30-second delay allows the fan to blow off any residual heat from
the heating source, such as a steam coil. When the unit is heating, the fan off delay is normally
applied to control the fan; otherwise, the fan off delay does not apply.
Fan Start on High Speed
On a transition from off to any other fan speed, the Tracer™ ZN controller automatically starts the
fan on high speed and runs the fan at high speed for 0.5 seconds. This provides ample torque
required to start all fan motors from the off position.
Fan Operation During Occupied Heating Modes
The ZN520 fan output(s) normally run continuously during the occupied and occupied standby
modes, but cycle between high and off speeds with heating/cooling during the unoccupied mode.
When in the occupied mode or occupied standby mode and the fan speed is set at the high or low
position, the fan runs continuously at the selected speed. Refer to “Troubleshooting,” p. 72 for more
information on abnormal fan operation.

Notes:
1. During the transition from off to any fan speed but high, Tracer™ ZN010 and ZN510 automatically start the fan on high
speed and run for one-half of a second before transitioning to the selected speed (if it is other than high). This provides
enough torque to start all fan motors from the off position.
2. When the heating output is controlled off, ZN010 and ZN510 automatically control the fan on for an additional 30
seconds. This delay allows the fan to dissipate any residual heat from the heating source, such as electric heat.
(a) Whenever two states are listed for the fan, the first state (off) applies when there is not a call for heating or cooling. The

Two- and Four-Pipe Changeover Operation
Tracer™ ZN controllers offer accurate and reliable unit changeover using 2-way valves and the
controller’s entering water temperature sampling function. Only units using the main hydronic coil
for both heating and cooling (2-pipe and 4-pipe changeover units) use the entering water
temperature sampling function.
Two-pipe and 4-pipe changeover applications require an entering water temperature sensor to
allow the main coil to be used for heating and cooling. This sensor is factory-provided and should
be field-installed on the entering water pipe.
The entering water temperature sampling function periodically opens the two-way valve to allow
temporary water flow, producing reliable entering water temperature measurement. To ensure
accurate unit changeover without sacrificing the benefits of 2-way, 2-position valves, Tracer™ ZN
controllers periodically test the entering water temperature on all hydronic main coil changeover
units. Hydronic heating/cooling changeover operation requires central plant operation, and the
unit controller must use an entering water temperature sensor to verify delivery of the correct water
temperature from the central plant.
Start-Up
Entering Water Temperature Sampling Function
The entering water temperature (EWT) must be five degrees above the space temperature for
hydronic heating and five degrees below the space temperature for hydronic cooling. When water
BCXC-SVX01B-EN55
Start-Up
flows normally and frequently through the coil, the controller does not invoke the sampling
function because the EWT is satisfactory.
Table 25. Unit mode as related to water temperature
Unit typeEWT sensor required?Coil water temperature
2-pipe changeoverYes• Can cool if: space temp - EWT ≥ 5°F
• Can heat if: EWT - space temp ≥ 5°F
4-pipe changeoverYes• Can cool if: space temp - EWT ≥ 5°F
• Can heat if: EWT - space temp ≥ 5°F
2-pipe heating onlyNoHot water assumed
2-pipe cooling onlyNoCold water assumed
4-pipe heat/coolNo• Cold water assumed in main coil
• Hot water assumed in auxiliary coil
However, when the controller detects an incorrect water temperature based on heating or cooling
mode, it invokes the entering water temperature sampling function. For example, when the
measured EWT is too cool to heat or too warm to cool. For cooling the EWT needs to be five degrees
below the measured space temperature. For heating, the EWT should be five degrees above the
measured space temperature.
After the controller invokes the function, the unit opens the main hydronic valve for no more than
three minutes before considering the measured EWT. The controller allows an initial stabilization
period, equal to 30 seconds plus 1/2 the valve stroke time, to flush the coil. Once the temperature
stabilization period expires, the controller compares the EWT against the effective space
temperature (either hardwired or communicated) to determine whether the EWT is correct for the
desired heating or cooling mode. If the EWT is not usable for the desired mode, the controller
continues to compare the EWT against the effective space temperature for a maximum of three
minutes.
The controller automatically disables the entering water temperature sampling and closes the
main hydronic valve when the measured EWT exceeds the high EWT limit (110°F). When the EWT
is warmer than 110°F, the controller assumes the EWT is hot because it is unlikely the coil would
drift to a high temperature unless the actual loop temperature was very high.
If the EWT is unusable—too cool to heat or too warm to cool—the controller closes the hydronic
valve and waits 60 minutes before initializing another sampling. If the controller determines the
EWT is valid for heating or cooling, it resumes normal heating/cooling control and effectively
disables entering water temperature sampling until it is required.
Electric Heat Operation
Tracer™ ZN controllers support 1-stage electric heat. Also, Tracer ZN520 supports 2-stage electric
heat. Tracer ZN520 cycles the electric heat to control the discharge air temperature. The rate of
cycling is dependent upon the load in the space and the temperature of the incoming fresh air from
the economizer (if any). Two-pipe changeover units with electric heat use the electric heat only
when hot water is not available.
Economizer Damper (Tracer ZN520 Only)
With a valid outdoor air temperature (either hardwired or communicated), Tracer™ ZN520 uses the
modulating economizer damper as the highest priority cooling source. Economizer operation is
only possible using a modulating damper during the occupied, occupied standby, unoccupied, and
occupied bypass modes.
The controller initiates the economizer function if the fresh air temperature is cold enough for use
as free cooling capacity. If the fresh air temperature is less than the economizer enable setpoint
(absolute dry bulb), the controller modulates the fresh air damper (between the active minimum
damper position and 100%) to control the amount of fresh air cooling capacity. When the fresh air
56 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Start-Up
temperature rises 5°F above the economizer enable point, the controller disables economizing and
moves the fresh air damper back to its predetermined minimum position based on the current
occupancy mode or communicated minimum damper position.

Tracer Dehumidification (Tracer ZN520 Only)
Dehumidification is possible when mechanical cooling is available, the heating capacity is located
in the reheat position, and the space relative humidity setpoint is valid.The controller starts
dehumidifying the space when the space humidity exceeds the humidity setpoint. The controller
continues to dehumidify until the sensed humidity falls below the setpoint minus the relative
humidity offset. The controller uses the cooling and reheat capacities simultaneously to
dehumidify the space. While dehumidifying, the discharge air temperature is controlled to
maintain the space temperature at the current setpoint.
A typical scenario involves high humidity and high temperature load of the space. The controller
sets the cooling capacity to 100% and uses the reheat capacity to warm the discharge air to maintain
space temperature control. Dehumidification may be disabled via Tracer™ or configuration.
Note: If the unit is in the unoccupied mode, the dehumidification routine will not operate.
Data Sharing (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 Only)
Because this controller utilizes LonWorks® technology, the controller can send or receive data
(setpoint, heat/cool mode, fan request, space temperature, etc.) to and from other controllers on
the communication link, with or without the existence of a building automation system. This
applies to applications where multiple unit controllers share a single space temperature sensor (for
rooms with multiple units but only one zone sensor) for both standalone (with communication
wiring between units) and building automation system applications. For this application you will
need to use the Rover™ service tool. For more information on setup, refer to the Trane publication
EMTX-IOP-2.

Space Temperature Measurement
Zone sensors use a 10kW thermistor to measure the space temperature. Wall-mounted zone
sensors include a space temperature thermistor. Unit-mounted zone sensors have a return air
sensor mounted in the unit’s return airstream. If both a hardwired and communicated space
60 BCXC-SVX01B-EN
Start-Up
temperature value exists, the controller ignores the hardwired space temperature input and uses
the communicated value.
Local Setpoint
The zone sensor may be equipped with a thumbwheel for setpoint adjustment.
Fan Mode Switch
The zone sensor may be equipped with a fan mode switch. The fan mode switch offers selections
of off, low, high, or auto.
External Setpoint Adjustment
Zone sensors with an external setpoint adjustment (1kW) provide the Tracer™ ZN controller with
a local setpoint (50 to 85°F or 10 to 29.4°C). The external setpoint is exposed on the zone sensor’s
front cover.
When the hardwired setpoint adjustment is used to determine the setpoints, all unit setpoints are
calculated based on the hardwired setpoint value, the configured setpoints, and the active mode
of the controller. The hardwired setpoint is used with the controller’s occupancy mode (occupied,
occupied standby, or unoccupied), the heating or cooling mode, the temperature deadband values,
and the heating and cooling setpoints (high and low limits) to determine the controller’s active
setpoint.
When a building automation system or other controller communicates a setpoint to the controller,
the controller ignores the hardwired setpoint input and uses the communicated value. The
exception is the unoccupied mode, when the controller always uses the stored default unoccupied
setpoints. After the controller completes all setpoint calculations, based on the requested setpoint,
the occupancy mode, the heating and cooling mode, and other factors, the calculated setpoint is
validated against the following setpoint limits:
•Heating setpoint high limit
•Heating setpoint low limit
•Cooling setpoint high limit
•Cooling setpoint low limit
Note: Only units with ZN510 or ZN520 can receive a communicated setpoint from Tracer™ or
other building automation system. However, Rover™ service software can communicate
with all Tracer ZN controllers.
These setpoint limits only apply to the occupied and occupied standby heating and cooling
setpoints. These setpoint limits do not apply to the unoccupied heating and cooling setpoints
stored in the controller’s configuration.
When the controller is in unoccupied mode, it always uses the stored unoccupied heating and
cooling setpoints.The unit can also be configured to enable or disable the local (hardwired)
setpoint. This parameter provides additional flexibility to allow you to apply communicated,
hardwired, or default setpoints without making physical changes to the unit.
Similar to hardwired setpoints, the effective setpoint value for a communicated setpoint is
determined based on the stored default setpoints (which determines the occupied and occupied
standby temperature deadbands) and the controller’s occupancy mode.
Fan Switch
The zone sensor fan switch provides the controller with an occupied (and occupied standby) fan
request signal (Off, Low, High, Auto). If the fan control request is communicated to the controller,
the controller ignores the hardwired fan switch input and uses the communicated value. The zone
sensor fan switch input can be enabled or disabled through configuration using the Rover™ service
tool. If the zone sensor switch is disabled, the controller resorts to its stored configuration default
fan speeds for heating and cooling, unless the controller receives a communicated fan input.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN61
Start-Up
When the fan switch is in the off position, the controller does not control any unit capacity. The unit
remains powered and all outputs drive to the closed position. Upon a loss of signal on the fan speed
input, the controller reports a diagnostic and reverts to using the default fan speed.
On/Cancel Buttons
Momentarily pressing the on button during unoccupied mode places the controller in occupied
bypass mode for 120 minutes. You can adjust the number of minutes in the unit controller
configuration using Rover™ service tool. The controller remains in occupied bypass mode until the
override time expires or until you press the Cancel button.
Communication Jack
Use the RJ-11 communication as the connection point from Rover™ service tool to the
communication link—when the communication jack is wired to the communication link at the
controller. By accessing the communication jack via Rover, you gain access to any controller on the
link.

Maintenance
Maintenance Procedures
Perform the following maintenance procedures to ensure proper unit operation.
Air Filters
Always install filters with directional arrows pointing toward the fan.
Fan Bearings
Fan bearings are permanently sealed and lubricated and do not require additional lubrication.
Fan Motors
Inspect fan motors periodically for excessive vibration or temperature. Operating conditions will
vary the frequency of inspection and lubrication. Motor lubrication instructions are on the motor
tag or nameplate. If for some reason these instructions are not available, contact the motor
manufacturer. Some motor manufacturers may not provide oil tubes on motors with permanently
sealed bearings.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper
lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. Failure to
disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
Before lubricating the motor:
1. Turn the motor off and disconnect power to the unit to ensure the motor doesn’t accidentally
start.
2. Use a No. 10 SAE, non-detergent automotive type oil. Do not over-oil.
Sheave Alignment
To prevent interference of the fan frame with the belt, make sure that the belt edge closes to the
motor has the proper clearance from the fan frame as shown in Figure 15, p. 64.
Align the fan and motor sheaves by using a straight–edge or taut string, as shown in Figure 16,
p. 64. The straight-edge must be long enough to span the distance between the sheave outside
edges.
When the sheaves are aligned, the straight–edge will touch both sheaves at points A through D,
as shown in Figure 16. For uneven width sheaves, place a string in the center groove of both

Fan Assembly Set Screws
Check and adjust fan wheel, bearing, and sheave set screws whenever a component is removed
or an adjustment is made. Refer to Tab l e 3 1 for recommendations.
Fan Belt Tension
Proper belt tension is necessary to endure maximum bearing and drive component life and is
based on fan brake horsepower requirements. Replace belt when frayed or worn.
Fan belt tension should only be tight enough so the belt does not slip and maintains adequate
airflow.
Note: Check fan belt tension at least twice during the first days of new belt operation since there
is a rapid decrease in tension until belts are run-in.
Be careful not to over-tension fan belt. Excessive tension will reduce fan and motor bearing life,
accelerate belt wear and possibly cause shaft failure. Clean the sheaves and belt with a dry cloth.
Keep oil and grease away from the belt because they may cause belt deterioration and slippage.
Trane does not recommend belt dressing.

NOTICE
Belt tension!
Do not over-tension belts. Excessive belt tension will reduce fan and motor bearing life,
accelerate belt wear, and could result in shaft failure.

Keep coils clean to maintain maximum performance. For operation at its highest efficiency, clean
the coil often during periods of high demand or when dirty conditions prevail. Clean the coil a
minimum of once per year to prevent dirt buildup in the coil fins, where it may not be visible.
Remove large debris from the coils and straighten fins before cleaning. Remove filters before
cleaning. Rinse coils thoroughly after cleaning. Clean the coil fins using one of these methods:
•steam with detergent
•hot water spray and detergent
•commercially available chemical coil cleaner
NOTICE
Potential unit damage from coil cleaners!
Do not use acidic chemical coil cleaners. Also, do not use alkaline chemical coil cleaners with a
pH value greater then 8.5 (after mixing) without using an aluminum corrosion inhibitor in the
cleaning solution. Using these types of cleaners could result in equipment damage.
Inspecting and Cleaning Coils
Coils become externally fouled as a result of normal operation. Dirt on the coil surface reduces its
ability to transfer heat and can cause comfort problems, increased airflow resistance and thus
increased operating energy costs. If the coil surface dirt becomes wet, which commonly occurs
with cooling coils, microbial growth (mold) may result, causing unpleasant odors and serious
health-related indoor air quality problems.
Inspect coils at least every six months or more frequently as dictated by operating experience.
Cleaning frequently is dependent upon system operating hours, filter maintenance, and efficiency
and dirt load. Follow is the suggested method below:
Steam, Hot Water, and Cooling Coil Cleaning Procedure
1. Don the appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).
2. Gain access to both sides of the coil section.
3. Use a soft brush to remove loose debris from both sides of the coil.
4. Use a steam cleaning machine, starting from the top of the coil and working downward. Clean
the leaving air side of the coil first, then the entering air side.
Use a block-off to prevent steam from blowing through the coil and into a dry section of the unit.
5. Repeat Step 4 as necessary. Confirm that the drain line is open following completion of the
cleaning process.
6. Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before putting the system back into service.
7. Straighten any coil fins that may be damaged with a fin rake.
8. Replace all panels and parts and restore electrical power to the unit.
9. Ensure that contaminated material does not contact other areas of the unit or building. Properly
dispose of all contaminated materials and cleaning solutions.
WARNING
Hazardous chemicals!
Coil cleaning agents can be either acidic or highly alkaline. Handle chemical carefully. Proper
handling should include goggles or face shield, chemical resistant gloves, boots, apron or suit as
required. For personal safety refer to the cleaning agent manufacturer’s Materials Safety Data
Sheet and follow all recommended safe handling practices. Failure to follow all safety
instructions could result in death or serious injury.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN69
Maintenance
Winterizing the Coil
Make provisions to drain coils that are not in use, especially when subjected to freezing
temperatures.
To drain the coil, first blow out the coil with compressed air. Next, fill and drain the tubes with fullstrength ethylene glycol several times. Then drain the coil as completely as possible.
NOTICE
Potential coil-freeze condition!
Make provisions to drain the coil when not in use to prevent coil freeze-up. Failure to follow this
procedure could result in equipment damage.
Periodic Maintenance Checklists
Monthly Checklist
The following check list provides the recommended maintenance schedule to keep the unit running
efficiently.

diagnostic reset sequence exists as part of the controller’s normal operation, the automatic
diagnostic reset feature is not active during the test sequence.
If left in an individual test step, the controller remains in test mode for 60 minutes and then exits
to normal operation.
Many service calls are due to unit diagnostics. The test sequence resets unit diagnostics and
attempts to restore normal unit operation prior to testing the outputs. If the diagnostics remain after

Automatic Reset by the Controller
The controller includes an automatic diagnostic reset function which attempts to automatically
restore the unit when a low temperature diagnostic occurs.
Note: The controller implements the automatic diagnostic reset function only once every 24
hours. For the controller to increment the 24 hour timer, you must maintain power to the
controller. Cycling power resets all timers and counters.
After the controller detects the first low temperature diagnostic, the unit waits 30 minutes before
invoking the automatic diagnostic reset function. The automatic diagnostic reset function clears
the special diagnostic and attempts to restore the controller to normal operation. The controller
resumes normal operation until another diagnostic occurs.
Note: The automatic diagnostic reset function does not operate during the manual output test
sequence.
If a special diagnostic occurs within 24 hours after an automatic diagnostic reset, the controller
must be manually reset. Other possible methods of resetting diagnostics are described in the
sections that follow.

Non-latching diagnostics automatically reset when the input is present and valid.
BCXC-SVX01B-EN75
Diagnostics
Manual Output Test
You can use the Test button on the controller either during installation to verify proper end device
operation or during troubleshooting. When you press the Test button, the controller exercises all
outputs in a predefined sequence. The first and last outputs of the sequence reset the controller
diagnostics. See p. 73 for more information about the manual output test.
Cycling Power
When someone turns off the controller’s 24 VAC power, then re-applies power, the unit cycles
through a power up sequence. By default, the controller attempts to reset all diagnostics at power
up. Diagnostics present at power-up and those that occur after power-up are handled according to
the defined unit diagnostics sequences (see Table 41, p. 77 and Table 42, p. 77).
Building Automation System (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 Only)
Some building automation systems can reset diagnostics in the Tracer™ ZN510 or ZN520
controller. For more complete information, refer to the product literature for the building
automation system.
Rover Service Tool
Rover™ service tool can reset diagnostics in the Tracer™ ZN520 controller. For more complete
information, refer to the Rover Installation, Operation, and Programming manual.
Diagnostic Reset (Tracer ZN510 or ZN520 Only)
Any device that can communicate the network variable nviRequest (enumeration “clear_alarm”)
can reset diagnostics in the Tracer™ ZN510 or ZN520 controller. The controller also attempts to
reset diagnostics whenever power is cycled.
Cycling the Fan Switch (Tracer ZN520 Only)
If the user cycles the fan speed switch from off to any speed, the controller resets all diagnostics.
Diagnostics may recur immediately if the problem still exists.
The green LED normally indicates whether or not the controller is powered on (24 VAC).
Trane’s Service Tool, Rover
Rover™, Trane’s service tool, can reset diagnostics present in the controller. For complete
information about Rover, refer to Trane publication EMTX-IOP-2 Rover Installation, Operation and Programming Guide.

(a) The generic binary output (TB4-1, TB4-2) state is unaffected by all unit diagnostics.
(b)When the entering water temperature is required but not present, the Tracer™ ZN520 controller generates a diagnostic to indicate the sensor loss
condition. The controller automatically cle ars the diag n ostic o nc e a val id ente rin g wat er t emperat ure valu e is p res en t (no n-latching diagnostic). When
the entering water temperat ure sensor fails, the controller prohi bits all hydronic cooling operation, but allows the delivery o f heat when heating is required.
In the Cool mode, all cooling is locked-out, but normal fan and outdoor air damper operation is permitted.
(c) When the outdoor air temperature sensor has failed or is not present, the Tracer ZN520 controller generates a diagnostic to indicate the sensor loss
condition. The controller automatically clears the diagnostic once a valid outdoor air temperature value is present (non-latching diagnostic). When the
outdoor air temperature sensor fails or is not present, the controller prohibits economizer operation.

Random start observedAfter power-up, the controller always observes a random start that varies between 0 and 30 seconds. The controller
Power-up control waitWhen power-up control wait is enabled (non-zero time), the controller remains off until one of two conditions occurs:
Cycling fan operationWhen the fan mode switch is in the auto position, the unit fan cycles off when there is no call for heating or cooling.
Unoccupied operationThe fan cycles with capacity when the unit is in unoccupied mode. This occurs even if the unit is in continuous fan
Fan mode offWhen using the local fan mode switch to determine the fan operation, the off position controls the unit fan to off.
Requested mode: offIt is possible to communicate the operating mode (such as off, heat, and cool) to the controller. When “off” is
