Trane T -Series Climate Changers ship as complete assemblies or sect ion al su bas semblies. Some assembly is required when the units ship as subassemblies.
Unit Description
Trane T -Series Climate Changers® are Central Station Air Handlers designed for a variety of air handling applications. The basic unit consists of a fan, heating and/or cooling coils, filters, and dampers. See the sales catalog (CLCH-DS-9) for a list of available options and components.
The fan is internally isolated. Fans available are double-width, double-inlet Centrifugal types with forward curved, backward inclined, or airfoil blade type design; single-width, single-inlet Plug Fans or Vane-Axial Q Fans medium, and high pressure classes with or without inlet guide vanes.
To insure fan stability, the unit ships with four (4) lock­down devices that prevent the fan from shifting during shipment and installation. These spacers must be removed prior to fan operation to assure proper vibration isolation.
The units are available with factory-mounted controls for stand-alone operation or operation with a complete building automation system. This includes factory-mounted starters, DDC controllers, and end devices.

Operating Environment
The T-Series Climate Changer (TSC) is an outdoor air handler. When considering the placement of the TSC it is important to consider the operating environment. The acceptable ambient temperature range for unit operation is -40° to +140°F (-40°C to 60°C).
For heating applications a special motor may be required to withstand the higher temperatures.
Motors with Class “B” insulation are acceptable for ambient temperatures up to 104
°F while motors with class “F” insulation can withstand ambient temperatures to +140
NOTE: IT IS RECOMMENDED THAT THE CUSTOMER PROVIDE ADEQUATE FREEZE PROTECTION FOR THE COILS. UNITS WITH UL APPROVAL HAVE A MAXIMUM AMBIENT TEMPERATURE REQUIREMENT OF 104°F.
° F (60°C).
Unit Nameplates
Each unit section is provided with a section nameplate (label). See includes type of section, section serial number, customer tagging information, section position and service model number.

Most control components are mounted inside the units. Depending on system configuration, these controls may include damper actuat ors, dir ty filter switches, averaging temp er ature sensors, low limit switches, point temperature switches, and inlet guide vane actuators. Variable frequency drives, starters, PCMs, control transformers, static pressure transducers, DC power supplies, customer interface relays, etc. will be in enclosures mounted on the inside of the unit.
Small items that cannot be factory-mounted will ship inside the control enclosures. These controls may include space temperature sensors, outside air temperature sensors, and humidity sensors.
All control valves will ship directly to the “ship to address” from the vendor, unless another address was given on the order.
All constant volume or variable air volume control systems are provided with 120 to 24 VAC control transformers. Unless ordered with a factory­mounted/wired starter or variable frequency drive, the customer must provide 120 VAC control power, 50/60 hz, typically 3 amps for unit sizes 3 - 50, and 5 amps for unit sizes 66 -100. A dedicated 15 amp circuit is recommended.
A T-Series Climate Changer unit and/or field-installed accessories that must be stored for a period of time prior to being installed MUST be protected from the elements. The PCM and all other electrical/electronic components should be stored in conditions of -20 ­120°F and 5 - 95% relative humidity non-condensing. Electrical components ARE NOT moisture-tolerant
The warranty will not cover damage to the unit or controls due to negligence during storage. A controlled indoor environment is recommended for proper storage. For further storage considerations, refer to “Storage Considerations” in the next section.
The T-Series Climate Changer is available with a wide array of factory mounted controls. They include the Programmable Control Module (PCM), motor starters, and Variable Frequency Drives (VFD).

Storage Considerations
General
The Trane T-Series Climate Changer air handler is an outdoor unit and requir es no spec ial prot ecti on for storage before installation. Keep the equipment in the original shipping container for protection and ease of handling. The warranty will not cover
damages to the unit due to negligence during storage.
For longer periods of storage, allow enough clearance around the unit to perform periodic inspection and maintenance of the equipment. In addition, loosen belt tension on drive belts.
Long Term Storage
Every two weeks, rotate the fan and motor shaft thirty revolutions by hand. Check for free rotation.
Every six months, check fan shaft bearings and grease lines. Add grease using a manual grease gun following the lubrication recommendations in the Periodic Maintenance section.
Check the motor lubrication; remove and clean grease plugs and check for the presence of moisture in the grease. If moisture is present, remove the motor and send it to an authorized repair shop for bearing inspection/replacement. If no moisture is
present, refer to the motor manufacturer’s lubrication recommendation for proper lubrication.
Resolving Shipping Damage
The T-Series Climate Changer ships FOB. If damage has occurred to the unit sections during shipment, the following instructions should be completed:
1 Make specific notation describing the damage on
the freight bill.
2 Report all claims of shipping damage to the
delivering carrier immediately.

Component Installation Requirements
WARNING
The T-Series Climate Changer is extremely versatile and the assembled unit is a complete air handling system. Each section may have installation requirements that will affect the performance of the unit.
High Efficiency Bag and Cartridge Filter Section
The Bag and Cartridge Filter sections can be used as either a pre-filter section, a Final Filter section or both. This is determined by placement in relation to the fan.
Filter Installation
NOTE: CARTRIDGE AND BAG FILTERS PROVIDED BY
TRANE ARE FITTED WITH A 7/8” HEADER THAT FITS IN THE FILTER TRACK. IF USING FILTERS SUPPLIED BY ANOTHER MANUFACTURER, FILTERS SHOULD BE PURCHASED WITH A 7/8” HEADER. IN SOME CASES IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO GASKET THE LOCALLY PURCHASED FILTERS TO INSURE A GOOD AIR SEAL.
6 Close the access door and confirm that there is a
good seal of the filter track block-off against the access door.
Fan Section
The Fan section can be configured as either draw­thru or blow-thru. Review the submittals and unit tagging prior to assembly.
The fan and motor assembly are internally isolated. The fan and motor bases are bolted to four spring isolators (see to the fan section support base. Four (4) shipping tie­downs are bolted adjacent to the isolators between the fan isolation base and the support frame.
The shipping tie-downs secure the isolation base to the support assembly to prevent any damage to the fan section during shipment of the air handler. The shipping spacers must be removed prior to unit operation unless the unit is to be externally isolated.
Figure 19
). The isolators are secured
FILTERS SHOULD BE INSTALLED WHEN THE UNIT IS SET. THIS WILL PROTECT INTERNAL COMPONENTS SUCH AS THE UNIT’S HEATING AND COOLING COILS.
Trane recommends the use of disposable pre-filters with high efficiency filters. Disposable pre-filters slide into the mounting tracks just ahead of the bag/ cartridge filters.
Pressurized Cabinet! Disconnect all electric power before opening door. Failure to disconnect power before servicing can cause severe personal injury.
1 Disconnect the power to the unit. 2 Open the filter section access door. 3 Remove the adjustable block-off from the filter
track.
4 Slide the filters into the tracks. Note that bag filters
must be installed with the pleats in the vertical plane.
5 Slide the adjustable block-offs into the filter track.
The block-off is intended to make a seal when the access door is closed. It is adjustable and may require a few changes to insure a proper seal.

the isolation base. Access for removal of shipping spacer is available through the fan module access doors.
2 Remove the bolt. This will release the isolator and
make it possible to remove the pipe or spacer.
Isolator Adjustment
Once the shipping tie-downs are removed and the internal isolation is released, it may be necessary to adjust the isolators to achieve the proper operation height of the fan and motor isolation base.
The isolators are bolted between the fan and motor isolation base. There are five designs based on unit size and fan type. Specific isolator clearances are listed in
Table 23
. The measurement is taken between the top of the floor panel (or support channel on sizes 66-100) and the bottom of the isolation base channel for all sizes.

T raq Dampers
Traq dampers are fitted in mi xing sections in several possible configurations. These low leak dampers modulate and measure air flow.
Figure 22 Traq Damper Terminal Connections.
VCM
Each Traq damper section is supplied with a factory­mounted ventilation control module (VCM) on the interior of the mixing box. The VCM has an input terminal for power and an output terminal for air velocity. (See
Figure 23 Typical Quick Connects with Wiring Identification
Figure 22
.)

The actuators, factory-mounted or field-supplied, are separately wired and controlled by a PCM or other building logic.
Figure 23
illustrates the typical quick
connect scheme.
VCM (Transducer) Calibration
The VCM has an auto-zero function that recalibrates the transducer once every minute.
Input Power Signal
The only input signal the VCM needs is the 24 VAC power connected to terminals TB5 and TB6.
Output Velocity Signal
The 2 - 10 VDC linear output signal from the VCM represents air velocity . This voltage can be converted to represent cfm or L/s using the formula and
26
following. For example, if the VCM on a Size 21
Table
T-Series Climate Changer has a 10-volt signal, it would represent 16650 cfm (7859 L/s) through the Traq damper. If this voltage is 6 volts, air flow through the Traq damper would be 8325 cfm (3930 L/s).
Using the formulas
cfm = k (cfm @ 10V) [volts-2/8] L/s = k (L/s @ 10V) [volts-2/8], and tables following

Inlet Guide Vanes
Inlet guide vanes can be provided with factory mounted actuator motors when ordered with factory mounted controls or end devices. If actuators are not ordered factory mounted, it is the responsibility of the contractor to provided the actuator and all mounting hardware.
The Inlet guide vanes are designed for the actuators to be internally mounted in the fan section. Size the actuators based on operating torque requirements.
should be installed in accordance with the standards of the National Fire Protection Association(NFPA) for installing of air conditioning and ventilating systems other than residence type (NFPA 90A), and residence type warm air heating and air conditioning systems (NFPA 90B).
See unit submittal documentation for additional duct mounting information.
To ensure the highest fan efficiency, duct turns and transitions must be made carefully minimizing air friction losses and turbulence. Proper duct work

installation, as outlined by such organizations as SMACNA (Sheet Metal and Air Conditioning Contractors National Association, Inc.) should be adhered to.
Fan Discharge Connections
When using lined duct, the insulation should not obstruct the discharge opening. (See
Figure 24
.)
Connections made directly to the discharge opening of the fan should have a minimum of 3 fan diameters of straight duct before any turns or transitions. The first turn of the connection should be in the same direction as the fan rotation. The air that the fan discharges into the duct is extremely turbulent and requires some length of duct to stabilize. Abrupt changes in duct work directly off the fan discharge will affect fan performance.
Damper Sections
Standard damper sections include mixing sections, filter mixing sections, face damper sections, internal face and bypass sections, and economizer sections.

NOTES: THE DRAIN CONNECTION SIZE IS 1” NPT EXTERNAL FOR UNIT SIZES 3 THROUGH 30; 1-1/2 NPT EXTERNAL FOR UNIT SIZES 35, 40, 50; 1-1/4” INTERNAL THREADS ON SIZES 66, 80, 100.
DRAIN PANS MUST BE PRIMED AT START-UP TO OPERATE PROPERLY.
Condensate Drain Pan Connections
Failure to provide adequate con­densate piping may result in water damage to the equipment and or building.
Threaded condensate drain connections are provided on only one side of the coil section. Pitch the connection lines horizontal or downward toward an open drain. Trane recommends installing a plug to facilitate cleaning of the trap.
IMPORTANT: PROPER TRAPPING OF THE COOLING COIL CONDENSATE DRAIN LINES IS NECESSARY FOR PROPER CONDENSATE MANAGEMENT. IMPROPER TRAPPING CAN RESULT IN STANDING WATER INSIDE THE UNIT OR WET INTERIOR SURFACES THAT CAN CAUSE UNPLEASANT ODORS AND SERIOUS HEALTH-RELATED INDOOR AIR QUALITY PROBLEMS.
It is essential that the drain pan condensate trap be deep enough and of the correct design to ensure a water seal in the trap while allowing the condensate pan to drain. Insufficient depth or incorrect design can cause the drain pan to overflow.

Units With More Than One Drain Pan
With the T-Series Climate Changer, each section can be ordered with or without a drain pan. When more than one section has a drain pan, you must trap each section individually. Connecting all drains to a common line with only one trap will result in condensate retention, and possible water damage to the air handler or adjoining space.
If a section has a drain pan for cleaning purposes only, it does not need a trap; however a cap or shut off valve should be installed on the drain connection. Only sections handling co nden sa te, suc h as a cooling coil section or eliminator section, require a trap.

the unit. The contractor should supply the pipe nipples, couplings, etc.for installation.
NOTE: WHEN USING ELECTRONIC VALVE ACTUATORS ON CHILLED WATER VALVES, THE VALVE SHOULD BE MOUNTED ABOVE THE HORIZONTAL POSITION TO PREVENT COLLECTION OF CONDENSATE IN THE ACTUATOR ELECTRONIC CIRCUITS AND SUBSEQUENT ACTUATOR FAILURE.
WHEN USING ELECTRONIC VALVE ACTUATORS ON HOT WATER OR STEAM COILS, THE ACTUATOR SHOULD BE INSTALLED APPROXIMATELY 45 DEGREES FROM VERTICAL. VERTICAL INSTALLATION OF A VALVE ACTUATOR ON A HOT WATER OR STEAM COIL WILL EXPOSE THE ACTUATOR TO HIGH TEMPERATURES, RESULTING IN ACTUATOR FAILURE.
Coil Piping And Connections
See
Table 27
For supply, vent and drain connections, refer to
Figure 28
NOTE: DRAIN AND VENT CONNECTIONS ARE PROVIDED AS STANDARD ON UW, UU, DD, AND D COILS ONLY. ALL OTHERS, IF REQUIRED, MUST BE FIELD INSTALLED.
NOTE: DRAIN AND VENT CONNECTIONS ON THE UU AND UW COILS ARE RECESSED. IF EXTENDED DRAINS AND VENTS ARE REQUIRED, THEY MUST BE FIELD PROVIDED.
General Coil Piping Recommendations
Proper installation, piping and trapping is necessary to ensure satisfactory coil operation and to prevent operational damage.
q Support all piping independently of the coils. q Provide swing joints or flexible fittings on all
connections that are adjacent to heating coils in order to absorb thermal expansion and contraction strains.
q If ordered with factory mounted controls, install
the control valves. The valves ship separately in
through
through
T able 29
Figure 37
for connection sizes.
.
THE EXTERNAL CABINET IS ONLY SUFFICIENTLY SIZED FOR HOUSING COIL PIPING. ALL VALVES AND VALVE ACTUATORS MUST BE LOCATED ELSEWHERE.
For best results, The Trane Company recommends that a short pipe nipple be used on the coil headers prior to making any welded flange or welded elbow type connections.
IMPORTANT: TEFLON TAPE OR PIPING COMPOUND SHOULD NOT BE USED FOR ANY FIELD CONNECTIONS BECAUSE ITS HIGH LUBRICITY MAY ALLOW CONNECTIONS TO BE OVER-TIGHTENED, RESULTING IN DAMAGE TO THE COIL HEADER.
NOTE: USE A BACK-UP WRENCH WHEN ATTACHING PIPING TO COILS WITH TUBE HEADER CONSTRUCTION TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO THE COIL HEADER. DO NOT USE BRASS CONNECTORS. BRASS DISTORTS EASILY AND COULD CAUSE CONNECTION LEAKS.
When attaching the piping to the coil header, make the connection only tight enough to prevent leaks. Maximum recommended torque is 200 pound-feet.
Use pipe sealer on all thread connections. After completing the piping connections, use mastic
to seal between the pipe and casing before insulating the pipe.

NOTE: THE PIPING PENETRATION INTO THE UNIT CASING MUST BE SEALED BEFORE INSULATING. FAILURE TO SEAL THE PENETRATION WILL PERMIT INFILTRATION OF UNCONDITIONED AIR INTO THE SECTION.
When subjected to freezing temperatures, provisions must be made to protect coils that are not in use. See
section titled “Coil Winterization.”
NOTE: IF GLYCOL IS USED IN THE CHILLED WATER OR HOT WATER SYSTEMS, BE SURE TO USE A GLYCOL APPROVED FOR USE WITH COMMERCIAL COOLING SYSTEMS AND COPPER TUBE COILS.
FOLLOW THE MANUFACTURER’S RECOMMENDATIONS FOR WATER TREATMENT AND MIX. FAILURE TO DO SO COULD AFFECT COIL PERFORMANCE OR DAMAGE THE TUBES OR BRAZE JOINTS.
Coils should be installed with field fitted drains and vents to permit winterization of coils not in use, and to assist in evacuating air from the chilled water system during start-up.
CAUTION
Failure to properly protect coils not in use during freezing temper­atures may result in coil freeze-up damage. Refer to the section titled
“Coil Winterization” for specific instructions.

have labeled holes for piping penetrations. Check that the coil is installed correctly and that the unit installation agrees with the submittals.
Refer to
Figure 38
for typical steam coil piping.
Condensate must flow freely from the coil to prevent coil damage from water hammer, unequal ther­mal stresses, freeze-up damage and corrosion. Complete the fol­lowing recommendations to pre­vent damage:
1 Install a 1/2” 15 swing-check vacuum breaker in
the unused condensate return connection at the top of the coil. This vacuum breaker should be installed as close to the coil as possible.
2 Vent the vacuum breaker to the atmosphere or
pipe it to the return main at the discharge side of the steam trap.
NOTE: VACUUM BREAKER RELIEF IS MANDATORY WHEN THE COIL IS CONTROLLED BY A MODULATING STEAM SUPPLY OR TWO-POSITION (ON-OFF) AUTOMATIC STEAM SUPPLY VALVE. VACUUM BREAKER RELIEF IS ALSO RECOMMENDED WHEN FACE AND BYPASS CONTROL IS USED.
Proper steam trap selection and installation is necessary for satisfactory coil performance and service life. For installation, use the following steps:
1 Install the steam trap discharge 12 inches below
the condensate return connection. 12 inches provides sufficient hydrostatic head pressure to overcome trap losses and ensures complete condensate removal.
*
Use float and thermostatic traps with atmospheric pressure gravity condensate return, with automatic controls or where the possibility o f low pr essure suppl y steam exi sts. Float and thermostatic traps are recommended because of gravity drain and continuous discharge operation.
*
Use bucket traps ONLY when the supply steam is not modulated and 25 psig or higher.
2 Trap each coil separately to prevent holding up
condensate in one or more of the coils.
3 Install strainers as close as possible to the inlet
side of the trap.
4 If installi ng co il s i n ser ie s a ir fl ow, control each coil
bank independently with a automatic steam control valve. Size the traps for each coil using the capacity of the first coil in direction of airflow.
5 Use a V-Port modulating valve to obtain gradual
modulation of the coil steam supply.
The 1/2” 15 swing-check vacuum breaker is recommended because of the low cracking pressure of 3­to 5-inches of water. Some other vacuum breakers, such as spring loaded ball-check vacuum break­ers, have cracking pressures as high as 17-inches of water. Substi­tution of the 1/2” 15 swing-check vacuum breaker could result in damage to the coil by preventing proper evacuation of condensate from the coil.
The coil condensate return line must be piped full size of the condensate trap connection, except for a short nipple screwed directly into the coil headers condensate return tapping. Do not bush or reduce the coil return tapping size.
6 Do not modulate systems with overhead or
pressurized returns unless the condensate is drained by gravity into a receiver, vented to atmosphere and returned to the condensate pump.
7 Slowly turn the steam on full for at least 10
minutes before opening the fresh air intake on units with fresh air dampers.
8 Pitch all supply and return steam piping down 1-
inch per 10 feet in the direction of the steam or condensate flow.
9 Do not drain the steam mains or take-offs through
the coils. Drain the mains ahead of the coils through a steam trap to the return line.
10 Assure continuous condensate removal.
Overhead re turns r equire 1 p sig of pr essure at the steam trap discharge for each 2-foot elevation.

Type W, D, K, UW and UU water coils are self­venting only if the water velocity exceeds 1.2 fps. Type DD coils are self venting only if the water velocity exceeds 2.5 fps. If water velocity is below these minimums vent by following one of the followings methods:
q Install an air vent in the top pipe plug tapping of
the return header
q Vent from the top return header horizontally to the
return piping when the return line rises and is above the top of the coil.
Refrigerant Coil Piping
Units that are UL listed shall not have refrigerant temperatures and pressures exceeding that listed on the coil nameplate.
For unit-installed refrigerant coils, packed elbows are provided. Pipe connections can be made as shown in
Figure 43
.
Type W, WC, UA, UW, and UU hot water coils are self-venting only if the water velocity exceeds 1.5 feet per second (fps). If it is below 1.5 fps, vent by one of the following methods:
1 Install an air vent in the top pipe plug tapping of

IMPORTANT: REFER TO THE NOTE ON THE INSIDE FRONT COVER OF THIS MANUAL REGARDING HANDLING OF REFRIGERANTS
Liquid Line Components
Trane recommends the use of a properly sized liquid line filter-drier installed upstream from the expansion valve and as close to the evaporator coil as possible. Base filter-drier selection on a maximum pressure drop of 2 psi at the design condition.
1 Install moisture indicator/sight glass between the
expansion valve and filter-drier. The moisture indicator/sight glass must be sized to match the size of the liquid line at the thermal expansion valve.
2 Size liquid line shutoff valve with an access port
using the selected liquid line OD, and install it close to the condenser.
3 Minimize use of other valves, tube bends and
reducers since these items tend to increase pressure drop and to reduce subcooling at the expansion valve. Liquid line receivers, other than those factory-installed, are not recommended.
4 The Thermal Expansion Valve (TEV) must be
selected for proper size and capacity. The size of the TEV should cover the full range of loadings. Check that the valve will successfully operate at the lightest load condition. Also consider the use of a hot gas bypass valve when sizing the TEV. Select expansion valves with external equalizer connections, and those designed to operate against a back pressure of 20 pounds per square inch higher than actual evaporator pressure.
5 Install the TEV directly on the coil liquid
connection (distributor) provided. The liquid distributor must be in a true vertical position.
CAUTION
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 may result in damage to the inter­nal components.
Installation and Maintenance 47
Page 51
Suction Line Components
Install suction line pressure tap on the leaving side of the evaporator coil near the TEV sensing bulb location. Accurate superheat measurement and thermal expansion valve adjustment demands that suction pressure be measured near the evaporator coil.
Usually, suction line filter-driers are only necessary on systems that have experienced a severe compressor motor burnout or other failure which results in extremely high refrigerant temperature. Do not leave this filter-drier in the suction line permanently.
Liquid Line Sizing
All compressors have a Refrigerant Charge Limit (RCL) that must not be exceeded. Since the RCL and pressure drop are in direct conflict with each other, T rane recommends that the liquid line be sized as small as possible, while maintaining a low enough pressure drop to ensure 5°F of subcooling at the expansion valve.
Suction Line Sizing
Suction line tubes must be sized to maintain refrigerant vapor velocities that are high enough to ensure oil entertainment under all operating conditions.
It is not nece ssary to pitch horizontal suction lines toward the compressor when the refrigerant coil is used with Trane condensing units that are designed with a gas trap in the suction line just prior to the compressor.

Start-Up Procedures
CAUTION
Inadequate lubrication of fan motor or bearings may result in premature bearing or motor fail­ure.
1 Inspect el ectrical connections. They should be
clean and secure. Compare actual wiring with specific diagrams provided on the unit.
2 Check piping and valves for leaks. Open or close
the valves to check for proper operation. Drain lines should be open.
CAUTION
The use of untreated or improperly treated water in unit coils may cause scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae, slime or other equipment damage. Consult a qualified water treatment specialist to determine if water treatment is required. The Trane Company assumes no responsibility for equipment dam­age caused by untreated or improperly treated water.
3 If equipped with a refrigerant coil, charge and
leak-test the unit to and ready it for operation according to instructions provided with the condenser equipment. Adjust superheat setting.
4 Check that all air filters are in place and
positioned properly. Under Periodic Maintenance,
see section titled “Air Filters.”
NOTE: UL-LISTED UNITS REQUIRE A “TOOL-ONLY” REMOVABLE LATCH ON ACCESS DOORS. THE HANDLE TIE-DOWN SCREW SHIPPED WITH THE UNIT MEETS THIS REQUIREMENT, AND SHOULD REMAIN IN PLACE WHEN THE ACCESS DOOR IS CLOSED.
5 Close and secure all unit access doors. Check
that the latch set screws are tight.
6 Remove all foreign material from the drain pan
and check drain pan opening and condensate line for obstructions.
After completing all prestart-up checks and procedures, the unit may be started. The following checks and adjustments should be made during initial start-up:
WARNING
Disconnect electrical power prior to access into a fan or ductwork. Even when locked out electrically, fans may cause injury or damage if
the impeller is subject to “wind­milling.” The impeller should be secured to physically restrict rota­tional movement. Failure to secure impeller can cause severe per­sonal injury or death.
Disconnect electrical power source when connecting or dis­connecting electrical wires for test procedures. Do not open service access doors while the unit is operating. Failure to exercise cau­tion when completing test proce­dures or while inspecting unit operation may result in injury or death from electrical shock, air movement or rotating parts.
If the unit was stored for an extended period of time, the following items should be checked before starting the unit.
1 Inspect motor bearings for moisture and rust.
Replace bearings if necessary and repack with new grease.
2 Check motor winding. An acceptable winding
resistance reading is from 6 meg-ohms to infinity. If reading is less than 5 meg-ohms, winding should be dried out in an oven or by a blower.
3 Inspect the entire motor for rust and corrosion. 4 Lubricate the motor as instructed in the section
titled “Periodic Maintenance,” or as indicated by the maintenance tag on the motor.
Installation and Maintenance 53

5 Bump-start unit and observe the fan wheel for
t
proper rotation, as indicated by rotation arrow located on fan housing.
6 Measure the motor voltage and amperage on all
phases to ensure proper operation. The readings should fall within the range given on the motor nameplate.
Maximum allowable voltage imbalance is two percent. Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the sum of the deviation of the three voltages from the average, divided by twice the average voltage. For example, if the three measured voltages are 221, 230 and 227, the average voltage would be 226 volts.
The percent of voltage imbalance is then calculated:

Fan Belt Alignment
Tighten the belts slightly and rotate the drive several times.
Sheave Alignment
Align the fan and motor sheaves by using a straightedge. The straightedge must be long enough to span the distance between the outside edges of the sheaves. When the sheaves are aligned, the straightedge will touch both sheaves at points A through D to confirm that the shaft is parallel. For uneven width sheaves, place a string in the center groove of both sheaves and pull tight. Adjust
54 CLCH-IM-16A
On multiple belt drives, determine that the force of deflection is approximately the same on each belt by pushing each belt in an equal distance at a point halfway from each sheave. If this force is not the same for each belt, the motor and fan shaft are not parallel. Realign as required.
After realignment, tighten the belts again to the standard belt tensioning specifications. See the following section.
Page 58
Over-tensioning of belts can cause damage to bearings, shafts, and drive components. Belts should not squeal at start-up. Belt tension should be rechecked after 8 hours, 24 hours, and 100 hours of operation and monthly thereafter. When the belt is in operation, the tight side of the belt should form a straight line from sheave with only a slight bow on the slack side.
Fan Belt Tension
NOTE: FAN BELT TENSION SHOULD BE CHECKED AT LEAST THREE TIMES DURING THE FIRST DAYS OF OPERATION, SINCE THERE IS A RAPID DECREASE IN TENSION UNTIL BELTS SETTLE IN. REFER TO THE DRIVE STICKER FOR PROPER TENSION.

Proper belt tension is required to ensure maximum bearing and drive component life and is based on fan brake horsepower requirement. Use
Table 47
to find the proper belt tension and refer to the inset for an example. To use the table, you must know:
q Fan design brake horsepower (bhp) per belt (not
motor hp)
q Fan rpm q Fan sheave pitch diameter, found by measuring
where the middle of the belt rides in the sheave (See
Figure 47
)
q Type of belt cross-section (stamped on the belt)

As shown in the example of tension (pounds force) is 9.6 pounds, at 1/2-inch deflection. Deflection is determined by dividing the belt span distance by 64, as shown in
To measure belt tension, use a belt tensiometer as shown in depressing one belt with the belt tensiometer and measuring the deflection relative to the other belts or to belt line. Adjust the belt tension to the correct pounds force and tighten all set screws to the proper torque. (See
For belt cross-section types not given in use the following equations to calculate correct belt tension.

where
F = force measured in pounds at specific deflection. K = constant determined by belt cross-section type. T =24,750 (fan hp per belt)/ belt speed
Belt speed = ((fan pitch diameter)/12) X 3.1416 X fan rpm
NOTE: THERE IS A LABEL LOCATED ON THE BEARING SUPPORT ON THE DRIVE SIDE OF THE UNIT THAT LISTS ALL DRIVE PARTS AND THE PROPER BELT TENSION FOR THE SPECIFIC DRIVE.
CAUTION
Do not over-tension the belts. Excessive tension will reduce fan and motor bearing life, accelerate belt wear and possibly cause shaft failure.
For example, given the following:
Motor sheave pitch diameter: 5.7 inches, eight groove Fan sheave pitch diameter: 10.0 inches, eight groove Fan horsepower: 2.4 bhp Fan rpm: 1000 rpm Belt type: C Sheave span: 32 inches
Belt speed = (10/12) X 3.14 X 1000 = 2618 T = (24,750 X (24 bhp/2 belts)/2618 = 113.4 lb F = (13.4 + 40)/16 = 9.6 lb. Also, D =(Belt span (inches))/64 = 32/64 =.50 in.
Therefore, the belt tensiometer should read 11.5 pounds force at 15/16-inch deflection. This will yield
159.4 pounds force belt tension. Belt tensions determined by using
minimum values. The correct operating tension for a V-belt drive is the lowest tension at which the belts will not slip under the peak load conditions. It may be necessary, however, to increase the tension of some drives to reduce excessive belt flopping or to reduce excessive start-up squea li ng.

secured to physical ly restrict rota­tional movement. Failure to secure impeller can cause severe per­sonal injury or death.
1 Disconnect main power switch. 2 Check grease lines for tight connections at the
grease fitting.
3 Using a manual low pressure grease gun, add
grease until a light bead of grease appears at the bearing grease seal. Turn the fan wheel manually while adding grease.
Fan Motors
Inspect fan motors periodically for excessive vibration or temperature. Operating conditions will vary the frequency of inspection and lubrication.

Coil Cleaning
The frequency of required cleaning is dependent on the operating hours of the system, filter maintenance and efficiency and dirt load.
IMPORTANT: COILS BECOME EXTERNALLY FOULED AS A RESULT OF NORMAL OPERATION. DIRT ON THE
SURFACE OF THE COIL REDUCES IT’S ABILITY TO TRANSFER HEAT THAT CAN RESULT IN COMFORT PROBLEMS, INCREASED RESISTANCE TO AIR FLOW AND THUS INCREASED OPERATING ENERGY COSTS. IF THE DIRT ON THE SURFACE OF THE COIL BECOMES WET, SUCH AS COMMONLY OCCURS WITH COOLING COILS, MICROBIAL GROWTH (MOLD) CAN RESULT THAT MAY CAUSE UNPLEASANT ODORS AND SERIOUS HEALTH-RELATED INDOOR AIR QUALITY PROBLEMS.

Steam, hot water and chilled water coils
Steam, hot water and chilled water coils should be kept clean to maintain maximum performance. If fins become dirty, clean with steam and detergent, hot water spray and detergent, or one of the commercially available chemical coil cleaners. Rinse coils thoroughly after cleaning.
WARNING
Follow all directions provided with chemical cleaners to avoid per­sonal injury and/or coil damage. Commercially available chemical cleaners may contain caustic or

1 Disconnect all electrical power to the unit. 2 Don the appropriate personal protective
equipment (PPE).
3 Gain access to the coil section of the unit (both
sides).
CAUTION
Follow directions provided with the cleaner to avoid coil damage.
4 Use a soft brush to remove loose debris from both
sides of the coil.
5 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 fro m blowing through the coil and into a dry section of the unit.
6 Repeat step 5 as necessary. 7 Confirm that the drain line is open following the
cleaning.
8 Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before putting the
system back in service.
9 Straighten any coil fins that may have been
damaged during the cleaning process with a fin rake.
10 Replace all panels and parts and restore electrical
power to the unit.
11 Use caution to assure that any contaminated
material does not contact other areas of the unit or building. Properly dispose of all
contaminated materials and cleaning solution.
WARNING
Never use steam or hot water to clean a refrigerant coil. Dangerous pressures may be built up by the improper application of heat resulting in equipment damage or personal injury.
1 Follow steps 1-4 from Steam and Water Coil
Cleaning procedure preceding.
2 Mix a high quality coil cleaning detergent with
water according to the manufacturers instructions. If the detergent is strongly alkaline after mixing (PH 8.5 or higher), it must contain an inhibitor. Carefully follow the detergent manufac tu re rs instructions on the use of the product.
3 Place the mixed solution in a garden pump-up
sprayer or high pressure sprayer. If a high pressure sprayer is used, note the following:
q Maintain a minimum nozzle spray angle of 15
degrees.
q Spray perpendicular to the coil face.
Type K cooling coils
Type K cooling coils have removable headers for cleaning. A small nylon or fiber brush may be used to clean the tubes. After cleaning, flush with water. When removing any header, replace the rubber sealing gasket and be sure that it seats properly when header is installed. If necessary, pull out turbulators, clean the tubes and replace turbulators. When header covers are replaced, apply washers under the bolt heads. Bolts should be evenly tightened to 50 pound-feet of torque.
Refrigerant coils
Refrigerant coils should be kept clean to maintain maximum performance. If fins become dirty, clean with cold water and detergent, or one of the commercially available chemical coil cleaners. Rinse coils thoroughly after cl eaning.
q Protect other areas of the air handler and internal
controls from contact with moisture or the cleaning solution.
q Keep the nozzle at least 6 inches from the coil. q Do not

Coil Winterization
Provisions must be made to drain coils that are not in use when subjected to freezing temperatures. Coil type NS may be adequately drained in its pitched position within the unit and the installer must provide appropriate piping for adequate drainage.
Coil types UU, D, DD, (provided with drain and vent) K, W, WC, and P can be adequately drained as installed in their level position.
CAUTION
Failure to properly drain and vent coils when not in use during freez­ing temperatures may result in coil freeze-up damage.
tightened beginning in the center and working toward the outside.
CAUTION
Use caution in removing header plugs from P2, P4 and P8 coils. Over torquing may result in twisted tubes.
Type UW Coil - (Leveled/pitched— not fully drainable)
Remove the vent and drain plugs and blow the coils out as completely as possible with compressed air. The coils should then be filled and drained several times with full strength inhibited ethylene glycol, so that it will mix thoroughly with the water retained in the coil. Drain the coil out as completely as possible.
Type K Coils
To winterize Type K coils, remove the header covers. If tubes are fouled, clean with nylon or fiber brush. T o ensure that no water will remain in the coil, do not replace the header covers until the coils are put back into service. When the coils are put back into service, new gaskets must be used. When header covers are replaced, apply washers under the bolt heads and tighten bolts evenly to 50 pound-feet. Bolts should be
