Features and Benefits
The Force-Flo cabinet heater meets the standards of today’s market, as well as the anticipated
needs of tomorrow’s market. The tradition that company founder Reuben Trane began in 1913
continues with the latest generation of cabinet heaters from Trane.
The Force-Flo cabinet heater is the leader in these key areas:
• Energy Efficiency
• Indoor Air Quality (IAQ)
• Controls
•Flexibility
•Quality
• Serviceability
Today’s HVAC market is concerned with issues suc
demand a change in HVAC products. In addition, renovation has overtaken new construction in the
cabinet heater market - demanding a design that caters to renovation issues. Trane is concerned
with these issues, too. That’s why we designed the Force-Flo cabinet heater as an integral part of
the company’s system solutions with standard IAQ-related features that comply with ASHRAE 62.
Energy Efficiency
Trane’s commitment to providing premium quality products has led to the exclusive use of
Electronically Commutated Motors (ECM) in all fan coil models. These brushless DC motors
incorporate the latest technology for optimized energy efficiency, acoustical abatement,
maintenance free and extended motor life. Each motor has a built-in microprocessor that allows
for programmability, soft ramp-up, better airflow control, and serial communication.

Electric Heat
All Force-Flo cabinet heaters, except inverted models M and N, are available with electric heating
coils as a standard option.
Coil Construction
Electric heat coils are open wire type with a nickel chromium element design.
Power Supply
Units have single-point power since the electric heating elements operate on line voltage. Electric
heat is available as 208/60/1, 230/60/1, 277/60/1, 208/60/3, or 480/60/3. Electric heat coils operate on
the same voltage as the unit, except for units with 480/60/3 electric heat. In this case, the unit
operates at 277/60/1, thus requiring a 4-wire supply. All fans and motors are single phase. In
addition, all control options are 24-volt, utilizing a factory-installed transformer.
Power Supply Location
All electric heat cabinet heaters have a terminal block for main power on the unit’s right-hand side.
Control Type
Single-stage electric heat units are controlled by either Tracer UC400, ZN010, ZN510, or ZN520
control options. Two-stage electric heat is controlled by the Tracer UC400, ZN520 only. Both
control options use PWM (pulse-width modulation) outputs to calculate the electric heat output
16 CAB-PRC001-EN
based on the capacity request and the electric heat cycles per hour. For example, if the electric heat
cycles per hour is configured for six cycles (as Trane recommends) the controller bases the output
on or off time on six 10-minute periods. If the capacity request is 40 percent, the controller controls
the electric heat output on for approximately four minutes each period.

Factory-Installed Piping Packages
Force-Flo cabinet heaters have standard piping packages available as a factory built and installed
option. Factory built assures all piping packages are fully tested under water for leaks and are built
within strict tolerances. Factory-installed means that supply and return pipes are the only field
connections required. The installer doesn’t have to sweat connect piping packages onto coil
connections in a tight end pocket. Field connections are brought to a point near the exterior of the
unit for easy access.

Piping Package Components
Force-Flo piping packages consist of a variety of components for each application. The following
section provides a detailed description of the piping components. Following this section are
additional illustrations and specifications.
Piping System/Placement
Factory piping packages are available with right or left hand connections. A simple coil connection
(a unit without a piping package) is also available in either a right or left hand configuration for
those applications requiring field piping.
Interconnecting Piping
Interconnecting piping refers to the copper piping that attaches the coil connections and all other
components such as control valves, end valves, etc. Piping is 1/2” nominal OD copper and extends
near the unit exterior to one inlet and one outlet connection.
Deluxe or Basic Piping Package
The basic piping package includes only the main components of the piping package:
interconnecting piping, control valves, and end valves.
The deluxe piping package also includes a strainer on the entering water pipe and unions at the
coil connections along with the basic components listed above. The strainer body is cast brass
construction, with a stainless steel mesh strainer that is easily removed for cleaning. The unions
are forged brass construction and close with a minimum amount of effort.
CAB-PRC001-EN 17
General Data
End Valves
Each piping package includes a ball valve for the entering water pipe and one of the following end
valves on the leaving water pipe: ball valve, manual circuit setter, or an auto circuit setter. These
valves serve as the field connection points on all Force-Flo piping packages.
Ball Valves
Ball valves, also known as stop or end valves, allow the unit to be cut off for service purposes. These
valves have a two-inch handle that rotates 90° to a fully open position. The valve body is cast brass,
and the ball is polished brass with a Teflon

seat. Ball valves are available as end valves on both
Manual Circuit Setter
In lieu of a ball valve on the leaving water pipe, a manual circuit setter, also known as a manual flow
control valve, acts as both a flow setting device and a stop valve. This valve allows water flow
through the cabinet heater to be set quickly and accurately.
The manual circuit setter includes Schrader ports in the valve body. These ports are used to
measure the pressure drop across the valve. This pressure drop can be compared to factory
supplied curves that relate the pressure drop to a specific flow rate. This valve also has a memory
stop that helps find the correct setting quickly.
Auto Circuit Setter
An auto circuit setter is an automatic flow control device available on the leaving water pipe. The
auto circuit setter includes a cartridge within the valve body that is sized to allow a specific flow
rate through the coil. This valve sets flow through the coil without any action required by a system
piping balancer. The auto circuit setter is available on the leaving water pipe with a ball valve.
The auto circuit setter also includes two P/T’s plugs in the valve body to allow measurement of the
pressure drop temperature through the valve.
Control Valves
Piping packages are available with or without control valves. All control valve options are factory
mounted and wired to the Force-Flo unit controls.
Tw o - Wa y / Tw o - P o s i t i o n Va l v e s
These valves will either fully open or close in response to a 24 Vac signal from the Tracer controller.
Control valves are direct-acting valves. The control valve is factory mounted in the leaving water
pipe downstream of the coil. Always use some means of relieving pump head pressure with twoway valve applications. Normally open or normally closed valves are available.
Three-Way/Two-Position Valves
These valves will either allow full water flow through the coil or divert the flow through a bypass
line. The valves respond to a 24 Vac signal from the Tracer controller. Control valves are direct
acting valves. All three-way valve packages include a balance fitting in the bypass line to allow flow
balancing in the bypass position. Three-way valves are factory mounted in the leaving water pipe
downstream of the coil. Normally open or normally closed valves are available.
Two-Way Modulating Valves
These valves modulate the water flow through the coil in response to a signal from the Tracer
controller. Modulating valves are three-wire floating point equal percentage valves, and are factory
mounted in the leaving water pipe downstream of the coil.
Three-Way Modulating Valves
These valves modulate the water flow through the coil in response to a signal from the Tracer
controller. Three-way valves allow water that is directed through the coil to mix with water directed
through the bypass line. This mixture exits through the leaving water pipe. Modulating valves are

Selecting the Correct Modulating Valve Size
Modulating valves are available in any of four port sizes: 0.7, 1.5, 2.5 or 4.0 Cv (coefficient of flow
values). The coefficient of flow is defined as the volume of water flow through a control valve in
the fully open position with a 1 psig differential across the valve. Calculate the coefficient of flow
using the formula:
Cv = Q/square root ΔP where:
Cv = flow coefficient
Q = flow rate (gpm)
ΔP = pressure drop across the valve or coil (psig).
For good control, the valve Cv should be approximately equal to the Cv of the water coil.
Modulating Valve Selection Example
Assume a size 06 vertical cabinet heater is selected to operate at the following conditions:
EWT = 180°F
LWT = 1 5 0°F
EAT = 70°F
The coil selection is a four-row coil. Select the best modulating valve size for this unit.
1. Find the ΔP across the water coil. Refer to the ARI performance table to determine the ΔP across
the water coil or use the Trane Official Product Selection System, TOPSS™, selection program.
The water pressure drop is found to be 5.7’ of water at a flow rate of 3.59 gpm. This converts
to a pressure drop of 2.47 psig (1.0 feet of water = 0.4328 psig.)
2. Calculate the Cv of the water coil.
Cv = gpm/Square root ΔP.
3.59/Square root 2.47
Cv =
Cv = 2.29
Therefore, select the 2.5 Cv valve because it is closest to the water coil.
Ta b l e 3 and Table 4, p. 21 illustrate possible valve selections at ARI conditions for horizontal
concealed units with a high static motor and vertical cabinet units with a free discharge motor. For
other applications, use TOPSS to determine flowrate and make calculations using the formulas
above.
