To help relieve negative pressure inside
commercial and industrial facilities, such
as factories, garages, pac king plants,
kitchens, bowling alleys, and welding
and foundry areas. Trane’s make-up air
units offer a wide range of cfm, from
1,600 to 64,000, and gas-fired burners
with capacities from 131,000 Btuh to
7,748,000 Btuh. These ranges of fer
excellent variety when selecting a unit
that will fill both the owner’s needs and
those of the specifying engineer. These
units are flexible in that they can be
located indoors or outdoors, and either
curb or grade mounted.
All standard units include the necessary
controls for operation, such as a flame
safeguard, an air proving differential
switch, a high temperature limit switc h,
and an ignition transformer. Component
parts are of the highest quality . Eac h unit
has overlapping, fail-safe protection
devices to handle failures should they
occur. Eac h unit is factory tested before it
ships, and is designed to provide years
of reliable, low maintenance operation.
Units are built with UL approved
components, where applicable. Special
gas controls can be furnished to comply
with FM or IRI requirements.

Application
Considerations
Outdoor Units
Outdoor make-up air units are the most
common approach to relieving negative
pressure inside commercial and
industrial facilities. All units of fer the
advantage of a full support system that
is watertight, pro vides a plenum for
return air, and has easily accessible
piping and electrical connections.
The Need for Make-Up Air Units
When more air is exhausted from a
building than is supplied by the
mechanical systems, the building is
under a “negative” condition. Air will
leak into the building through cracks,
windows, and doors. When a negative
condition exists:
1
Flues and stacks may experience a
backdraf t and cause dangerous
contaminants to remain in the occupied
space. In the case of flues, the products
of combustion may condense and
corrode the equipment.
2
Under negative conditions, the exhaust
system sees a greater static pressure.
The capacity of each fan is reduced and
this results in an inadequate removal of
contaminants.
3
Drafts and cross-currents will increase in
a negative condition, causing an
uncomfortable or unhealthy work
environment.
What Fuel to Use?
The most common fuel for heating
make-up air is natural gas. This is
because 100 percent of the energy goes
into the air stream (92 percent sensible, 8
percent latent). Direct firing eliminates
the need for heat exchangers or
combustion chambers that can corrode
or leak. Natural gas is often the least
expensive fuel and is usually readily
available.
Note: Select ed hor iz ontal and ver tical
units are av ailable with special coil
options (DX, chilled w at er, st eam or
electric).
