Instructions!
Section 608, Paragraph C of the 1990 Clean Air Act states:
Effective July 1, 1992, it shall be unlawful for any person, in course of
maintaining, servicing, repairing, or disposing of an air conditioning system, to
knowingly vent or release any CFC or HCFC refrigerant. Minimal releases (air
purges or refrigerant hoses) associated with good faith attempts to recapture or
recycle are exempt from the ban on venting.
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
Fiberglass Wool!
Product contains fiberglass wool. Disturbing the insulation in this
product during installation, maintenance or repair will expose you to
airborne particles of glass wool fibers and ceramic fibers known to the
state of California to cause cancer through inhalation. Glass wool fibers
may also cause respiratory, skin or eye irritation.
Jobsite Inspection
Always perform the following checks before accepting a unit:
1. Verify that the nameplate data matches the data on the sales order and bill of
lading (including electrical data).
2. Verify that the power supply complies with the unit nameplate specifications.
3. Visually inspect the exterior of the unit, for signs of shipping damage. Do not
sign the bill of lading accepting the unit(s) until inspection has been completed. Check for damage promptly after the unit(s) are unloaded. Once the
bill of lading is signed at the jobsite, the unit(s) are now the property of the
SOLD TO party and future freight claims MAY NOT be accepted by the
freight company.
4. Verify that the refrigerant charge has been retained during shipment by use
of gauges. Schrader taps are located external to the cabinet on the 2-ton
through 6-ton equipment.
5. After assuring that charge has been retained, reinstall the schrader caps to
assure that refrigerant leakage does not occur.
WARNING
Microbial Growth!
Wet interior unit insulation can become an amplification site for
microbial growth (mold), which may cause odors and damage to the
equipment and building materials. If there is evidence of microbial
growth (mold) on the interior insulation, the insulation should be
removed and replaced prior to operating the system.
Jobsite Storage
This unit is intended for indoor use only. To protect the unit from damage due to
the elements, and to prevent possible IAQ contaminant sources from growing,
the unit should be stored indoors. If indoor storage is not possible, the following
provisions for outdoor storage must be met:
1. Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raise above the ground to assure adequate air circulation beneath the unit.
2. Cover the unit(s) with a water proof tarp to protect them from the elements.
3. Make provisions for continuous venting of the covered units to prevent
moisture from standing on the unit(s) surfaces. Wet interior unit insulation
can become an amplification site for microbial growth (mold) which has
been determined to be a cause of odors and serious health related indoor air
quality problems.
4. Store units in the normal UP orientation to maintain oil in the compressor.
5. Do not stack more than three units in total height for the WPWD/GSWD 2-ton

Unit Description
Before shipment, each unit is leak tested, dehydrated, charged with refrigerant and run tested for proper control
operation.
Water-to-Refrigerant Coils
The brazed-plate water-to-refrigerant
heat exchangers for the 2-ton through
6-ton equipment are constructed of
stainless steel.
The water-to-refrigerant heat exchangers for the 20-ton equipment are
an inner copper tube or cupro-nickel
(option available on the source-side
only) and steel tube (tube-within-atube) design.
Both heat exchanger types are leak
tested to assure there is no cross leakage between the water and refrigerant
gas.
Water Connections
One inch brass swivel connections are
provided for the 2-ton through 6-ton
equipment. Each brass fitting has a
one inch gasket for the connector. The
gaskets are shipped in the electrical
compartment to prevent loss at the job
site.
Water connections for the 20-ton are
located inside the unit at the units
front (source-side) and back (loadside). The fitting consist of a 2-inch female pipe threaded connection.
Controls
The control system offered to control
the unit is a Basic 24 volt control for
the 2-ton through 6-ton unit sizes, and
a deluxe 24 volt micro processing
board for the 20-ton unit.
All power wiring to the equipment is
made at the unit contactor for the 2-
ton through 6-ton equipment, and at
the power block for the 20-ton equipment.
All low voltage wiring is made at the
unit’s low voltage terminal board.
Wiring Connections
Troubleshooting and connection diagrams for the equipment may be located in the back of this manual.
Basic 24V Controls
(for 2-ton through 6-ton units)
Safety devices for equipment containing the basic 24V control option include a low pressure switch and a
freezestat to prevent compressor operation during low temperature activity. The switch is set to activate at
refrigerant pressures of 35 psig or 7
psig to fit most applications.
A high pressure switch prevents compressor operation during high or excessive discharge pressures
exceeding 395 psig.
The lockout relay communicates the
low or high pressure situation to the
compressor to prevent operation. The
relay may be reset at the thermostat,
or by cycling power to the unit.
General alarm may be accomplished
through the lockout relay to drive light
emitting diodes (LEDs) on a field supplied status indicating thermostat. Terminal 6 on the lockout relay is open for
field use in malfunction indications.
This feature will drive dry contacts
only, and cannot be used to drive field
installed control inputs.
Deluxe 24V Controls
(for 20-ton unit)
Units containing the Deluxe 24V control design will incorporate a microprocessor-based control board. The
Trane microprocessor board is factory
wired to a terminal strip to provide all
necessary terminals for field connection. The deluxe board is equipped
with a random start relay, anti-short
cycle timer, brown out protection,
compressor disable, unit safety control, diagnostics and a generic relay
(which may be available for field use).
See page 17 for diagnostic information.
Desuperheater
(Option for 2-ton through 6-ton units)
For units containing the desuperheater option, the unit is shipped from the
factory with a desuperheater water
coil and pump mounted internal to the
unit cabinetry. For domestic hot water
hook-up instructions, see manual
WSHPC-IN-4 or 72-9006-02.

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 Placement
Units may be placed into a field supplied mechanical rack (See Figure 2),
or placed on a finished floor. Loosen
compressor bolts to release tension of
the rubber grommets to help reduce
vibration during operation. Sound
proofing material (field supplied) is
recommended to help attenuate noise
generated by compressor vibration.
It is important to leave appropriate
clearances around the unit to achieve
maintenance and
serviceability to
the equipment.
See page 6 for
service clearance
dimensions.
Water Connection
Connect the source-side and load-side
water-in/water-out from the water-towater heat pump to the source system
and the load system.
Note: The source for a water-to-water
heat pump is typically a boiler/cooling
tower or geothermal loop.
The load for a water-to-water heat
pump is typically fresh-air unit(s), fan
coil(s), hydronic coil(s), radiant heat,
wall fin, or potable water.
The source and load connections for
the 2-ton through 6-ton equipment is
on the right hand side of the unit.
The 20-ton equipment incorporates
the source-side connection at the
unit’s front, and the load-side connection at the unit’s back.
For vibration isolation, it is recommended that flexible steel braided
hoses be installed instead of hard piping the equipment to the main loop
system or mechanical device.
• Stainless steel braided flexible
hose with manual circuit-setter
valve
• Stainless steel braided flexible
hose with automatic balancing
valve
Additional accessories, such as a
strainer are recommended for use to
eliminate contaminants from entering
the brazed-plate or co-axial water-torefrigerant heat exchangers.

Cleaning and Flushing
the Water Loop
After the piping system is complete,
the flexible hose connectors should be
doubled back to complete the water
circuit external to the unit (avoiding
trash settle-out in the condenser). Fig-ure 4. An extra pipe may be necessary
to connect the hose kits. See Page 14
for antifreeze/water mixture by volume.
(1) Water circulation system should be
filled with clean water using the water
make up connections. Note: Air vents
should be opened during filling.
(2) With the air vents closed, start the
circulating pump and then crack the air
vents to bleed off the trapped air, assuring circulation through all components of the system.
Note: Make up water must be available
to the system to replace the volume
formerly occupied by the air that is
Connecting a Loop Pump Kit
Closed Loop System
All piping external to the unit is the responsibility of the installer. The water
pipe installation must be done in accordance with local codes. If no local
code applies, national codes should be
followed. It is the contractor’s responsibility to know and adhere to all applicable codes.
Water inlet and outlet to the unit’s water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger are
clearly marked on the submittal drawings found on pages 7 through 9. The
supply and return piping must be installed correctly to the unit to ensure
the safety devices will work properly.
Units that are not piped accordingly
will not obtain the manufacturers warranty.
A pump module (Figure 5) and hose kit
(Figure 6) are typically used to connect
the unit to closed loop piping in domestic applications.

Supply/Return Pipe Connections
to the Loop Pump Kit
(1) Connect the supply and return hos-
es to the water-inlet (from supply) and
water-outlet (to return) of the unit. The
rubber gaskets for the water-in and
water-out connections are located in
the control box. These gaskets require
field installation prior to connecting
the water piping to the unit.
(2) Hand tighten the 1" FPT brass swivel quick connections to the 1" MPT
adapter with P/T ports. Using a
wrench, tighten the adapter approximately 1/2 additional turn. Care must
be taken to avoid overtightening as to
not dislodge the snap ring.
(3) The water lines should be routed
not to interfere with access to the unit.
The use of a short length of high pressure hose with the swivel fitting may
simplify the connections and prevent
vibration. Pressure/Temperature (P/T)
ports are required for troubleshooting
the hydronic side of the unit. Extreme
care should be taken by the installing
contractor to prevent dirt or other foreign matter from entering the pipes or
piping components during construction. Pipes should be capped until they
are in place and ready to be connected
to the system.
(4) Install the Trane loop pump module. See installation manual WSHPCIN-5 or 72-9006-03 for instructions. If
the unit does not contain a Trane loop
pump module, two ball valves must be
installed between the unit and the
loop’s water pump to isolate the unit
from the system’s water loop during
maintenance and emergency situations. See Figure 7.
If the unit s contain a Trane loop pump
module, shut-off valves are supplied
by the manufacturer within the pump
module assembly.
(5) Connect the unit’s water-in and water-out hose to the loop pump module.
(6) The pumps connect to the load side
230 volt compressor contactor, and require a field installed 6 amp in-line
fuse and holder.
(7) Insulate all indoor piping. Equipment is designed to operate with fluid
temperature of 25ºF to 120ºF
WSHP-SVX02A-EN13
Water Heater Hook-up (option)
Instructions for connection from the
desuperheater (option) water-in/out to
the domestic hot water heater may be
found in WSHPC-IN-4 or 72-9006-02.
This water heater kit (Figure 8) ships in
all units with the desuperheater option. The kit is zip tied to the compressor base; and consists of piping
connections and shut-off valve.
For units containing the desuperheater option, the desuperheater pump
fuse is located within a container inside of the control box. The fuse is not
factory installed.
Note: If the fuse is installed, and the
unit is started without water in the system, pump damage may occur.
Using Antifreeze
In areas of the country where entering
water temperatures drop below 45°F
or where piping is being run through
areas subject to freezing, the loop
must be freeze protected by using an
approved antifreeze solution to prevent the earth loop water from freezing inside the heat exchanger.
Methanol and glycols are the most
commonly used antifreeze solutions.
Consult your geothermal unit supplier
for locally approved solutions in your
area.
Propylene glycol is not recommended
in installations where the water temperature are expected to fall below
30°F. At extreme temperatures, the
viscosity increases to the point where
normal loop circulating pumps may
not maintain proper flow.
If propylene glycol is the only locally
approved solution for anti-freeze,
good engineering practices should be
used to achieve the desired flow.
Calculate the approximate volume of
water in the system by using the requirements detailed in Table 2. Add
three gallons to this total to allow for
the water contained in the hose kit and
geothermal unit.

Filling the Loop Pump Kit System
Once the loop, pump module and unit
are fully connected, the system will
need to be filled with water or water/
antifreeze solution. See Page 14 for antifreeze/water mixture by volume.
Fill both sides of the outside portion of
the loop first via the pump module.
The hose kit and unit should be filled
last after purging of the ground loop is
complete.
To fill the outside loop; (1) attach a
water hose to the 1-inch FPT brass
valve ports located on the front of the
pump module (the caps at the front of
the module should be removed). (2)
Rotate both valve 1 and valve 2 to the
"Position B" to prevent water from going to the unit. (3) Turn on the water
and allow the earth loop to slowly fill
with water. (4) Run the water until a
steady flow of water without air bubbles is observed coming out of the discharge hose.
To fill the hose kit and unit; (1) Re-
position valve 1 to the "Position A" to
fill the unit and hose kit. (2) Turn the
water on and allow the hose kit and
unit to be filled slowly with water. (3)
Run the water until a steady flow of
water without air bubbles is observed
coming out of the discharge hose.
System Pressurization
(1) Rotate both valves 1 and 2 to the
"Position D" to pressurize the system.
(2) Examine all internal unit fittings or
connections for leaks. (3) After checking for leaks, the system is ready to be
flushed.
Note: There may be a certain amount
of entrained air left in the loop system.
Cleaning and Flushing
the Water Loop
All installations must be thoroughly
flushed to remove air and dirt from the
earth loop before running the system.
The pumps used in the pump module
are not adequate to use for the flushing out of the unit. A secondary pump
capable of delivering 50 gpm at 60 feet
of head (a 1 1/2 hp or larger pump) is

Changing Freezestat or Low Pressure Cutout Switches
(WPWD/GSWD models ONLY)
Each unit has two factory installed low
pressure cutout switches and one
freezestat. Only one of the low pressure cutout switches is connected to
the 24 volt control circuit, dependent
on which freezestat is being used (i.e.
35°F or 20°F). Both the freezestat and
the low pressure cutout are in the lockout relay circuit. The freezestat monitors the temperature of the water
leaving the source and load side water-to-refrigerant heat exchangers,
protecting the heat exchanger from
fluid freeze up. The low pressure cutout monitors the suction pressure of
the compressor to protect the compressor from liquid floodback or operating under loss of charge conditions.
Units can be ordered from the factory
with either the 35°F or 20°F freezestat
option. The 20°F freezestat is ONLY
used on closed loop systems with antifreeze solution. The 35°F freezestat is
used on all other systems. The type of
freezestat on a unit can be determined
from the appropriate digit in the model
number. Digit 11 and/or 12 with a selection of 1 is a 35°F freezestat, whereas selection 2 is a 20°F freezestat.
What Freezestat Should Be
Applied?
As previously mentioned, every unit is
shipped from the factory with two low
pressure cutouts installed in the refrigerant circuit. One of the low pressure
cutouts disables the compressor at 35
psig, while the other disables the compressor at 7 psig. The 35 psig cutout is
used with the 35°F freezestat, while
the 7 psig cutout is used with the 20°F
freezestat.
Occasionally it will be necessary to
change the freezestat in the field. Examples of when this change-out is
necessary include:
(1) A unit with a 35°F freezestat is going to be put on a closed loop system
with antifreeze. By definition, the unit
requires a 20°F freezestat.
(2) A unit with a 20°F freezestat is going to be put on an open well system
or a closed loop system with NO antifreeze solution. By definition, the unit
must have a 35°F freezestat installed
prior to operation.
The best time to install the freezestat/
low pressure cutout is prior to installing the unit. The freezestat is easily accessible from the top service door.
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.
Changing a Freezestat and Low
Pressure Cutout
The freezestat is located in the top of
the source-side water-to-refrigerant
heat exchanger leaving water line. The
freezestat is located in the twelve
o’clock position. The capillary tube is
inserted into the well approximately 8inches. Remove the existing freezestat
and replace it with the new freezestat.
Note: The wires must be moved from
one low
pressure
cutout to
the other.
The low pressure cutouts are located in
the insu-
lated refrigerant
lines. The high
pressure cutout is located in the un-insulated
compressor discharge line and is the
only pressure cutout located
in this line. Change the wires from
the old low pressure cutout to the new
low pressure cutout.
Identifying the Low Pressure Cutouts
The 7 psig low pressure cutout is used
with a 20°F freezestat. It is installed in
the insulated line and is in the piping
tee going to the external schrader port.
The 35 psig low pressure cutout is
used with a 35°F freezestat. It is installed in the insulated line and is not
connected to any fittings.
The 395 psig high press cutout is installed in the un-insulated compressor
discharge line. It is the only cutout located in this line. Further, it is connected to an external schrader port.
If the low pressure cutout is not
changed when the freezestat is
changed, problems will occur. If the 35
psig low pressure cutout is connected
to a 20°F freezestat, the unit will go out
repeatedly on the low pressure cutout.
If the 7 psig low pressure cutout is
used with the 35°F freezestat, no problems will occur as long as the freezestat is operating normally. However,
if the freezestat does fail, the loop water could freeze before the suction
pressure dropped low enough for the
7 psig cutout to take the unit off the
line. Also, in a loss of charge situation,
the heat exchanger would freeze before the freezestat could take the unit
off-line.
Before energizing the unit, the following system devices must be checked:
____ Is the high voltage power supply correct and in accordance with the nameplate ratings?
____ Is the field wiring and circuit protection the correct size?
____ Is the low voltage control circuit wiring correct per the unit wiring diagram?
____ Is the piping system clean/complete and correct? (A recommendation of all system flushing of debris from the water-
to-refrigerant heat exchanger, along with air purging from the water-to-refrigerant heat exchanger be done in accordance with the Closed-Loop/Ground Source Heat Pump Systems Installation Guide).
____ Is vibration isolation provided? (i.e. unit isolation pad, hosekits)
____ Is unit serviceable? (See clearance specifications on page 6).
____ Are the low/high-side pressure temperature caps secure and in place?
____ Are all the unit access panels secure and in place?
____ Is the thermostat in the OFF position?
____ Is the water flow established and circulating through all the units?
____ Is the zone sensor correctly wired and in a good location?
____ Has all work been done in accordance with applicable local and national codes?
____ Has heat transfer fluid been added in the proper mix to prevent freezing in closed system application?

Sequence
of Operation
Initial Unit Start-up
Start-up with the system controls is included below: Note: Air Handlers should not be operated in the construction phase of dry
walling. The air-to-refrigerant coil will foul, and the warranty will be void.
1.Set the system control to the desired mode of operation.
2.Set the control switch to fans and circulation pumps. The compressor should NOT run.
3.Reduce the temperature control setting until the compressor, reversing valve, solenoid valve, and loop pump are
energized. Adjust water flow utilizing pressure/temperature plugs and comparing to tables contained in specification
sheet data. Water leaving the heat exchanger should be warmer than the entering water temperature (approximately
9°F-12°F); compressor amps should be within data plate ratings; the suction line should be cool with no frost
observed in the refrigerant circuit.
4.Check the cooling refrigerant pressures against values in Table OP1. (Page 22).
5.Turn the system control switch to the OFF position. Unit should stop running and the reversing valve should de-ener-
gize.
6.Leave unit off for approximately FIVE minutes to allow for pressure equalization.
7.Turn the thermostat to the lowest setting.
8.Set the thermostat system switch to the opposite mode of operation.
9.Adjust the temperature setting upward until the unit is energized. A water temperature decrease of approximately 5°F-
9°F leaving the heat exchanger should be noted. The compressor operation should be smooth with no frost observed
in the refrigeration circuit.
10.Check the heating refrigerant pressures against values in Table OP1. (Page 22)
11.Set the system control to maintain the desired space temperature.
Tables 6 and 7 should be used to define feet of head/pressure drop. Note: To calculate feet of head, when using gauges that read in PSIG,
multiply PSI by 2.31.

Water Volume
Table 8 is provided for use in calculating glycol requirements for the unit.
For the operating temperature drop (heating) and rise (cooling), refer to Table OP1 and OP2 for the proper water temperature change. Depending on the unit size, entering water temperature and water flow rate, the cooling temperature rise is
from 8°F-16°F. Based on the same criteria for heating, the temperature drop is from 2°F-13°F.
Pressure
Using the P/T ports and one 0-60 psi pressure gauge with the P/T port adapter, measure the pressure difference between
the water-in and water-out connections. Compare the pressure differential to Table 6 to determine flow.

Maintenance
Preventive Maintenance
Maintenance on the unit is simplified
with the following preventive suggestions:
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.
Check the contactors and relays within
the control panel at least once a year.
It is good practice to check the tightness of the various wiring connections
within the control panel.
A strainer (60 mesh or greater) must
be used on an open loop system to
keep debris from entering the unit heat
exchanger and to ensure a clean system.
For units on well water, it is important
to check the cleanliness of the waterto-refrigerant heat exchanger. Should
it become contaminated with dirt and
scaling as a result of bad water, the
heat exchanger will have to be back
flushed and cleaned with a chemical
that will remove the scale. This service
should be performed by an experienced service person.
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 manufacturers Materials Safety Data Sheet
and follow all recommended safe
handling practices. Failure to follow all safety instructions could
result in death or serious injury.
It should be noted that the water quality should be checked periodically. See
Table 9.

Troubleshooting
WARNING
Hazardous Service
Procedures!
The maintenance and trouble
shooting procedures recommended in this section of the manual
could result in exposure to electrical, mechanical or other potential
safety hazards. Always refer to
the safety warnings provided
throughout this manual concerning these procedures. When possible, disconnect all electrical
power including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow
proper lockout/tagout procedures
to ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized. When necessary to work with live electrical
components, have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been trained in
handling live electrical components per these tasks. Failure to
follow all of the recommended
safety warnings provided, could
result in death or serious injury.
Preliminary Trouble Inspection
If operational difficulties are encountered, be sure to perform the preliminary checks before referring to the
troubleshooting chart on page 28.
• Verify that the unit is receiving electric supply power.
• Ensure that the fuses in the fused
disconnect are intact.
After completing the preliminary
checks, inspect the unit for other obvious problems such as leaking connection, broken or disconnected wires,
etc. If everything appears to be in order, but the unit still fails to operate
properly, refer to the troubleshooting
chart on page 28.
General Operation
The standard model is designed for indoor installation. When the unit is installed in an unconditioned space, the
unit may not start in cool weather (approximately 45°F). It may then be necessary to start the unit in the cooling
mode for three to five minutes. The
unit may then be shut-off (there will be
a two minute time-out of the unit), and
restarted in the heating mode. The
freeze protection thermostat should
also be checked as it may be adversely
affected by ambient temperature.
Like any other type of mechanical
equipment, the unit performs best
when it is well maintained.
Operation with a Conventional
Thermostat
The unit is equipped with safety controls, including high pressure control,
low pressure control and a freeze protection thermostat, set to shut off the
compressor under abnormal temperature or pressure conditions. If the safeties shut off the compressor, a lockout
relay prevents short cycling from the
abnormal condition. When conditions
are corrected, the lockout control can
be reset by setting the thermostat system switch to OFF wait a few minutes
for the system pressure to equalize,
and then return to HEAT or COOL. If
the condition continues, an authorized
service person should check out the
unit.
