General Information
Literature Change History
RTAA-IOM-3 (October 1991) Original manual. Covers installation,
operation, and maintenance of “CO” design sequence RTAA-130 thru RTAA-400 units.
Unit Identification
When the unit arrives, compare all nameplate data with ordering and shipping information.
Unit Inspection
When the unit is delivered, verify that it is the correct unit and that it is property equipped. Compare the information which appears on the unit nameplate with the ordering and submittal information. Refer to “Nameplates”.
Note: If the Remote Evaporator Option is ordered, the remote evaporator will be shipped in a separate crate. The serial number on the evaporator nameplate must match the serial number on the outdoor unit nameplate.
Caution: If the serial numbers on the remote evaporator and the outdoor unit do not match, do not proceed with the installation. Notify the appropriate Trane Sales Office.
Inspect all exterior components for visible damage. Report any apparent damage or material shortage to the carrier and make a “unit damage” notation on the carrier’s delivery receipt. Specify the extent and type of damage found and notify the appropriate Trane Sales Office.
Do not proceed with installation of a damaged unit without sales off ice approval.
Inspection Checklist
To protect against loss due to damage incurred in transit, complete the following checklist upon receipt of the unit.
[ ] Inspect the individual pieces of the
shipment before accepting the unit. Check for obvious damage to the unit or packing material.
[ ] Inspect the unit for concealed
damage as soon as possible after delivery and before it is stored. Concealed damage must be reported within 15 days.
[ ] If concealed damage is discovered,
stop unpacking the shipment. Do not remove damaged material from the receiving location. Take photos of the damage, if possible. The owner must provide reasonable evidence that the damage did not occur after delivery.
[ ] Notify the carrier’s terminal of the
damage immediately, by phone and by mail. Request an immediate, joint inspection of the damage with the carrier and the consignee.
[ ] Notify the Trane sales representative
and arrange for repair . Do not repair the unit, however , until damage is inspected by the carrier’s representative.
Loose Parts Inventory
Check all the accessories and loose parts which are shipped with the unit against shipping list. Included in these items will be water vessel drain plugs, rigging and electrical diagrams, and service literature, which are placed inside the control panel and/or starter panel for shipment.

Unit Description
The 130 thru 400-ton Model RTAA units are helical-rotary type, air-cooled liquid chillers designed for installation outdoors Depending upon rated capacity, the unit will have two, three or four compressors. The compressor circuits are completely assembled, hermetic packages that are factory­piped, wired, leak-tested, dehydrated, and tested for proper control operation before shipment.
Note: Packaged units are factory charged with refrigerant and oil. Remote evaporator units are shipped with a holding charge of nitrogen and a partial charge of oil.
Figures 1 thru 4 show typical RTAA packaged units and their components. Figures 5 and 6 show a typical RTAA Remote Evaporator outdoor unit and evaporator . Tables 1 and 2 contain general RTAA mechanical specifications. Chilled water inlet and outlet openings are covered for shipment. Each compressor has a separate compressor motor starter.
The RTAA series features Trane’s exclusive Adaptive Control which monitors the control variables that govern the operation of the chiller unit. Adaptive Control logic can correct these variables, when necessary, to optimize operational efficiencies, avoid chiller shutdown, and keep producing chilled water. An optional remote display is available to monitor unit operation from a remote location.
These units feature two independent refrigerant circuits. Compressor unloaders are solenoid actuated and oil pressure operated. Each refrigerant circuit is provided with filter drier, sight glass, electronic expansion valve, and charging valves.
The shell-and-tube type evaporator is manufactured in accordance with ASME standards. Each evaporator is fully insulated and is equipped with water drain and vent connections. Packaged units have heat tape protection to -200 F. Remote evaporators do not have heat tape.

Installation - Mechanical Packaged Unit and Units with Remote Evaporator Option
General
The following instructions are, for the most part, applicable to both packaged units and units with the remote evaporator option. Specific exceptions are noted.
The most significant difference in the installation of the two systems is the requirement for interconnecting piping with the remote evaporator option. For this reason, these installation procedures are covered separately in the following section, Installation ­Mechanical, Remote Evaporator Interconnecting Piping.
Pre-installation
Report any damage incurred during handling or installation to the T rane sales office immediately. An Installation Check Sheet is provided.
Location Requirements
Noise Considerations
Locate the outdoor unit away from sound sensitive areas. If required, install rubber vibration isolators in all water piping and use flexible electrical conduit. Refer to “Unit Isolation”. Consult an acoustical engineer for critical applications. Also refer to Trane Engineering Bulletins for application information on RTAA chillers.
Foundation
Provide rigid, non-warping mounting pads or a concrete foundation of sufficient strength and mass to support the outdoor unit operating weight (i.e., including completed piping, and full operating charges of refrigerant, oil and water). Refer to Figures 18 thru 21 for unit operating weights. Once in place, the outdoor unit must be level within 1/ 4" (6.4 mm) over its length and width. The Trane Company is not responsible for equipment problems resulting from an improperly designed or constructed foundation.
Clearances
Provide enough space around the outdoor unit to allow the installation and maintenance personnel unrestricted access to all service points. Refer to submittal drawings for the unit dimensions. A minimum of four feet is recommended for compressor service. Provide sufficient clearance for the opening of control panel doors. Refer to Figures 9 thru 12 for minimum clearances. which require additional clearances will take precedence over these recommendations.
Note: If the outdoor unit configuration requires a variance to the clearance dimensions, contact your Trane Sales Office Representative. Also refer to Trane Engineering Bulletins for application information on RTAA chillers.
In all cases, local codes

Additional Location Requirements for Remote Evaporator Only
The remote evaporator must be installed indoors, unless:
– ambient temperatures are always
above 32 F.
– the system circulating liquid is a non-
freezing glycol-type solution, selected for the prevailing ambient temperatures.
– the evaporator is protected from
freezing by properly installed and applied insulation and heat tape.
Caution: To prevent internal damage due to freezing, do not install the outdoor unit without adequate freeze protection.
The remote evaporator should be mounted on a base of suitable strength to support the operating weight. Remote evaporator weights and mounting locations are shown in Figure 13.
The remote evaporator must be level when installed. Be sure to allow
adequate clearance for water and refrigerant piping connections, performance of service procedures, reading of gauges and thermometers, and operation of valves. Space must be allowed at one end of the evaporator to pull tubes, if required.
Drainage
Provide a large capacity drain for water vessel drain-down during shutdown or repair . The evaporator is provided with a drain connection. Refer to “Evaporator Drain”. All local and national codes apply. The vent on the top of the evaporator is provided to prevent a vacuum by allowing air into the evaporator for complete drainage.
31
RT AA-IOM-3

Rigging
The Model RTAA chiller should be moved by lifting. Refer to Figures 14 thru 17 for typical unit lifting and operating weights. Refer to the rigging diagram that ships with each unit for specific “per unit” weight data.
WARNING: To prevent injury or death and unit damage, capacity of lifting equipment must exceed unit lifting weight by an adequate safety factor.
Lifting Procedure
Caution: To prevent damage do not use a forklift to lift the unit.
[ ] Install clevis connectors through the
four , six or eight lifting plates provided on the unit (Figures 14 thru 17).
WARNING: To prevent injury or death and unit damage, use the lifting method shown in Figures 14 and 17.
[ ] Attach lifting chains or cables to
clevis connectors. Each cable alone must be strong enough to lift the chiller.
[ ] Attach cables to lifting beam. Total
lifting weight, lifting weight distribution and required lifting beam dimensions are shown in Figures 14 thru 17 and on the rigging diagram shipped with each unit. Lifting beam crossbars must be positioned so lifting cables do not contact the sides of the unit.
Caution: To prevent unit damage, position lifting beam so that cables do not contact the unit.

Unit Isolation and Leveling
For additional reduction of sound and vibration, use one of the two mounting methods outlined below:
1. Construct an isolated concrete pad for the unit or provide concrete footings at each of the eight unit mounting points. Mount the unit directly to the concrete pads or footings. Level the unit using the base rail as a reference. The unit must be level within 1/4" over the entire length. Use shims as necessary to level the unit.
2. Install the optional spring isolators at each of the eight/ten unit mounting points. Refer to Figures 18 thru 21 for isolator placement locations and loading information.
a. Secure the isolators to the
mounting surface, using the mounting slots in the isolator base plate. Do not fully tighten the isolator mounting bolts at this time.
b. Positioning pins are located on the
top of each isolator , as shown in Figures 18 thru 21. Lower the unit on to the isolators so that the pins register with the unit mounting holes.
c. The weight of the unit will force
the upper housing of each isolator down. This may cause the upper housing to contact the lower housing. As shown in Figures 18 thru 21, the clearances between upper and lower housings must be 1/4 to 1/2 inch. If the clearance on any isolator is greater than 1/2 inch, it will be necessary to use shims or grout to achieve the required clearance.
d. Minor adjustments can be made
to the clearance by turning the leveling bolt; clockwise to increase the clearance and counterclockwise to decrease the clearance. All eight isolators must be supporting the entire weight of the unit while these adjustments are being made.
Note: If proper clearances cannot be achieved using the leveling bolts, use shims or grouting under the isolators, as required. Isolators must not straddle small gaps in the shims or grout.
e. Before tightening the mounting
bolts, level the unit using the unit base rail as a reference. The unit must be level within 1/4" over the entire length. Use the leveling bolts and/or additional shims or grout to level the unit.
Evaporator Water Piping
Thoroughly flush all water piping to the unit before making the final piping connections to the unit.
Caution: If using an acidic commercial flushing solution, construct a temporary bypass around the unit to prevent damage to internal components of the evaporator .
Caution: To avoid possible equipment damage, do not use untreated or improperly treated system water.
When completing the NPT-type water connections, apply a suitable pipe sealant, or Teflon tape, to prevent water leakage. To minimize heat gain and to prevent condensation, insulate all piping.
Caution: Avoid overtightening and possible damage of water connections. The lubricating properties of T eflon tape make the possibility of overtightening more likely.

Evaporator Piping
Figure 22 illustrates typical evaporator piping components. Components and layout will vary slightly, depending on the location of connections and the water source.
Caution: The chilled water connections to the evaporator are to be “victaulic” type connections. Do not attempt to weld these connections, as the heat generated from welding can cause internal damage to the evaporator.
The chilled water connections are on the left side of the unit. If it is necessary for the chilled water piping to enter the unit from the right side, elbows can be used to route the piping 1800 over the top of the evaporator, as shown in Figure 22, for RT AA 130-200 units only.
A vent is provided on the top of the evaporator at the return end. Be sure to provide additional vents at high points in the piping to bleed air from the chilled water system. Install necessary pressure gauges to monitor the entering and leaving chilled water pressures.
Caution: To prevent damage to chilled water components, do not allow evaporator pressure (maximum working pressure) to exceed 215 psig.
Provide shutoff valves in lines to the gauges to isolate them from the system when they are not in use. Use rubber vibration eliminators to prevent vibration transmission through the water lines.
If desired, install thermometers in the lines to monitor entering and leaving water temperatures. Install a balancing valve in the leaving water line to control water flow balance. Install shutoff valves on both the entering and leaving water lines so that the evaporator can be isolated for service.
A pipe strainer should be installed in the entering water line to prevent waterborne debris from entering the evaporator.

Evaporator Piping Components
“Piping components” include all devices and controls used to provide proper water system operation and unit operating safety. These components and their general locations are given below.
Entering Chilled Water Piping
[ ] Air vents (to bleed air from system). [ ] Water pressure gauges with shutoff
valves. [ ] Vibration eliminators. [ ] Shutoff (isolation) valves.
Thermometers (if desired). [ ] Clean-out tees. [ ] Pipe strainer.
Caution: To prevent tube damage install strainer in evaporator water inlet piping.
Leaving Chilled Water Piping
[ ] Air vents (to bleed air from system). [ ] Water pressure gauges with shutoff
valves. Vibration eliminators. [ ] Shutoff (isolation) valves. [ ] Thermometers. [ ] Clean-out tees. [ ] Balancing valve. [ ] Flow Switch (If desired)
Caution: To prevent evaporator damage, do not exceed 215 psig (14.6 bar) evaporator water pressure.
Evaporator Drain
A 3/4" drain connection is located under the outlet end of the evaporator. This may be connected to a suitable drain to permit evaporator drainage during unit servicing. A shutoff valve must be installed on the drain line.
Evaporator Flow Switch
Chilled water flow protection is provided by the UCM without the need for a chilled water flow switch. A flow switch for chilled water is strictly discretionary but if not installed, a signal still must be sent to the chiller to indicate that water flow has been established, e.g. chilled water pump motor starter auxiliary contacts.
If additional chilled water flow protection is desired, use a field­installed flow switch or differential pressure switch with the pump interlock to sense system water flow. Install and wire the flow switch in series with the chilled water pump motor starter auxiliaries (refer to “Electrical Wiring”).
Specific connection and schematic wiring diagrams are shipped with the unit. Some piping and control schemes, particularly those using a single water pump for both chilled and hot water, must be analyzed to determine how and or if a flow sensing device will provide desired operation.
Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations for selection and installation procedures. General guidelines for flow switch installation are outlined below
1. Mount the switch upright, with a minimum of 5 pipe diameters of straight horizontal run on each side. Do not install close to elbows, orifices or valves.
Note: The arrow on the switch must point in the direction of flow.
2. To prevent switch fluttering, remove all air from the water system.
Note: The UCM provides a 6-second time delay after a “loss-of-flow” diagnostic before shutting the unit down. Contact a qualified service representative if nuisance machine shutdowns persist.
RT AA-IOM-3
42
Page 43
3. Adjust the switch to open when water flow falls below nominal. Evaporator data is shown in Figure
23. Refer to Table 1 for minimum flow recommendations. Flow switch contacts are closed on proof of water flow.

Water Treatment
Using untreated or improperly treated water in these units may result in inefficient operation and possible tube damage. Consult a qualified water treatment specialist to determine whether treatment is needed. The following disclamatory label is provided on each RTAA unit:
Customer Note
The use of improperly treated or untreated water in this equipment may result in scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae or slime. The services of a qualified water treatment specialist should be engaged to determine what treatment, if any, is advisable. The Trane Company warranty specifically excludes liability for corrosion, erosion or deterioration of Trane equipment. Trane assumes no responsibilities for the results of the use of untreated or improperly treated water, or saline or brackish water.
Caution: Do not use untreated or improperly treated water. Equipment damage may occur.
Water Pressure Gauges
Install field-supplied pressure gauges (with manifolds, whenever practical) as shown in Figure 22. Locate pressure gauges or taps in a straight run of pipe; avoid placement near elbows, etc. Be sure to install the gauges at the same elevation on each shell if the shells have opposite-end water connections.
To read manifolded pressure gauges, open one valve and close the other (depending upon the reading desired). This eliminates errors resulting from differently calibrated gauges installed at unmatched elevations.
Caution: To prevent shell damage, install pressure relief valves in the evaporator water system.
Freeze Protection
If the unit will remain operational at subfreezing ambient temperatures, the chilled water system must be protected from freezing, following the steps listed below
1. Heat tape is factory-installed on the packaged unit evaporator and will protect it from freezing in ambient temperatures down to -20 F.
2. Install heat tape on all water piping, pumps, and other components that may be damaged if exposed to freezing temperatures. Heat tape must be designed for low ambient temperature applications. Heat tape selection should be based on the lowest expected ambient temperature.
3. Add a non-freezing, low temperature, corrosion inhibiting, heat transfer fluid to the chilled water system. The solution must be strong enough to provide protection against ice formation at the lowest anticipated ambient temperature. Refer to Table 1 for evaporator water storage capacities.
Note: Use of glycol type antifreeze reduces the cooling capacity of the unit and must be considered in the design of the system specifications.
RT AA-IOM-3
Water Pressure Relief Valves
Install a water pressure relief valve in the evaporator inlet piping between the evaporator and the inlet shutoff valve, as shown in Figure 22. Water vessels with close-coupled shutoff valves have a high potential for hydrostatic pressure buildup on a water temperature increase. Refer to applicable codes for relief valve installation guidelines.
44
Page 45
Domestic Water Heater Piping
Figure 24 illustrates typical domestic water heater piping components. Components and layout will vary slightly, depending on the location of connections and the water source. See unit submittals to insure identification of water inlet and outlet connections.
Be sure to provide additional vents at high points in the piping to bleed air from the water system.
Caution: To prevent damage to components, do not allow domestic water heater pressure (maximum working pressure) to exceed 150 psig.
Use rubber vibration eliminators to prevent vibration transmission through the water lines.
Install a balancing valve in the leaving water line to control water flow balance. Install shutoff valves on both the entering and leaving water lines so that the domestic water heater can be isolated for service.
The vent and drain can be used to temporarily install gauges and determine pressure drop at the heater. Water flow rates, as a function of pressure drop, are charted in Figure 25, or pressure drop can be calculated using the following formula:
Pressure Drop (Ft. H20) = 2.31 (Drain psig -Vent psig)
A pipe strainer should be installed in the entering water line to prevent waterborne debris from entering the domestic water heater.
Domestic Water Heater Piping Components
“Piping components” include all devices and controls used to provide proper water system operation and unit operating safety. These components and their general locations are given below.
Entering Water Piping
[ ] Drain [ ] Vibration eliminators. [ ] Shutoff (isolation) valves. [ ] Pipe strainer.
Caution: To prevent tube damage install strainer in the water inlet piping.
Leaving Chilled Water Piping
[ ] Air vents (to bleed air from system) [ ] Vibration eliminators. [ ] Shutoff (isolation) valves. [ ] Balancing valve.
Caution: To prevent damage, do not exceed 215 psig (14.6 bar) domestic water heater water pressure.
Water Pressure Relief Valves
Install a water pressure relief valve in the outlet piping between the domestic water heater and the outlet shutoff valve, as shown in Figure 24. Water vessels with close-coupled shutoff valves have a high potential for hydrostatic pressure buildup on a water temperature increase. Refer to applicable codes for relief valve installation guidelines.
Caution: To prevent shell damage, install pressure relief valves in the evaporator water system.
Freeze Protection
If water in the domestic water heater will be subjected to subfreezing ambient temperatures, the water system must be protected from freezing, following the steps listed below:
1. Heat tape is factory-installed on the domestic water heater and will protect it from freezing in ambient temperatures down to -20 F Insure that electrical power is provided for the heat tape.
2. Install heat tape on all water piping, pumps, and other components that may be damaged if exposed to freezing temperatures. Heat tape must be designed for low ambient temperature applications. Heat tape selection should be based on the lowest expected ambient temperature.

Installation - Mechanical Remote Evaporator Interconnecting Refrigerant Piping.
Figure 26 Remote Evaporator Installation – No Elevation Difference
General
The RT AA outdoor unit with the Remote Evaporator option is shipped as two pieces: the outdoor unit (condensing) and the evaporator. The outdoor unit includes a suction accumulator line on each circuit and has the field connections for the refrigerant at the end opposite the control panel.
The evaporator is shipped complete with factory-mounted refrigeration specialties (electronic expansion valves, sight-glasses and removable core filter-dryers). All evaporator refrigerant line connections are at one end of the evaporator. The installing contractor need only provide and install the refrigerant piping between the evaporator and the outdoor unit.
System Configuration
The system may be configured in either of the two primary arrangements as shown in Figures 26 and 27. The configuration and its associated elevation, along with the total distance between the remote evaporator and the compressor/condenser section, play a critical role in determining suction and liquid line sizes. This will also affect field refrigerant and oil charges. Consequently, there are physical limits which must not be violated if the system is to operate as designed. Please note the following restrictions:

Figure 27 Remote Evaporator Installation – Condenser and Compressor above Evaporator
A. The line sizes established in this installation manual are to be used only for 40-50 F leaving water temperature and full-load ice-making applications.
B. The evaporator can be mounted only on the SAME PLANE OR LOWER PLANE than the outdoor unit. Figure 28 illustrates what not to do. The elevation difference is to not exceed 100 feet.
C. Piping between evaporator and outdoor unit is to not exceed 200 (linear) feet or an equivalent length (includes equivalent length pressure drop of fittings) of 300 feet.
D. The suction line must never cross or be above a plane that is 1’8" above the bottom of the outdoor unit. Figure 29 illustrates what not to do.
RT AA-IOM-3
48
Page 49
E. Horizontal portions of the suction lines must be downward sloping to the compressors. Suction lines must be insulated.
F. Install an inverted trap in the liquid line when the evaporator is on a lower plane than the outdoor unit. The apex of the trap should be at a height above the top of the condenser coils. See Figure 27.
G. Install a suction line trap at the evaporator when the evaporator is on a lower plane than the outdoor unit. See Figure 27.
Figure 28 Restricted Installation – Evaporator is on a Higher Plane than the Outdoor Unit
H. The evaporator MUST be matched with its respective outdoor unit. The nameplate on the evaporator will have a serial number that is matched to the outdoor unit’s serial number. See Figure 7.
Also the circuits on the outdoor unit must match the circuits on the evaporator (I.E. circuit #1 on the outdoor units must be connected with circuit #1 on the evaporator).
Caution: If the circuits are crossed, serious equipment damage may occur.
See Figure 30 for circuit number identification.

Line Sizing
Equivalent Line Length
To determine the appropriate size for field installed liquid and suction lines, it is first necessary to establish the equivalent length of pipe for each line. An initial approximation can be made by assuming that the equivalent length of pipe is 1.5 times the actual length of pipe. These assumed lengths can then be used with the appropriate tables in the Liquid Line Sizing section and the Suction Line Sizing sections which follow.
It is also necessary to know the capacity (tons) of each circuit. Circuit capacities for each RTAA unit are listed in Table 3.
Table 3 RTAA Circuit Capacities
Model Circuit 1 Circuit 2
130 70 70 140 70 70 155 85 70 170 100 70 185 100 85 200 100 100
From Table 4, for horizontal and/or downflow liquid lines, and assuming an 85 ton circuit, 175 feet of equivalent line requires a liquid line with an OD of 1 5/8 in.
There are 6 long-radius elbows in this example. Using Table 5 and the pipe OD of 1 5/8 in., these fittings represent
15.6 feet (6 elbows @ 2.6 feet each).
The following are examples of how to determine line sizes.
Therefore our new equivalent line length is 132.6 feet (117 +15.6).
Referring back to Table 4, an 85 ton
Liquid Line Sizing
This example uses the unit installation shown in Figure 31 and assumes an 85 ton circuit. The actual length of field installed piping is 117 feet (80 + 8 + 8 +
21). Using the factor of 1.5, the equivalent line length is 175 feet.
circuit with 132.6 feet of equivalent pipe length (use the dimension closest to the calculated dimension) can use a pipe O.D. of 1% in. rather than 1 5/8 in. From Table 5 we see that the 6 elbows of 1 3/8 in. have an equivalent pipe length of 13.2 feet (6 elbows @ 2.2 feet each). This further reduces the equivalent pipe length to 130.2 feet (117 + 13.2), and, as shown in Table 4, still allows the use of 1 3/8 in. O.D. pipe.

Suction Line Sizing
This example uses the unit installation shown in Figure 31 and assumes a 100 ton circuit. As in the liquid line sizing example, the equivalent pipe length must first be determined. It must also be determined what portion of the pipe is “horizontal and/or downflowing” and what portion is “horizontal and/or upflowing.”
In Figure 31, the actual length of field installed piping is 100 feet (20 + 5 + 75). Using the factor of 1.5, the equivalent line length is 150 feet. The suction line has an elevation of 20 feet and consists of horizontal and vertical (upflowing) sections, which must be sized separately.
The two vertical sections are separated by a small horizontal section. The total distance is 25 feet (20 +5). The first approximation of equivalent pipe length is 37.5 feet (1.5 times 25). Referring to Table 6 for a horizontal and/or upflow suction line on a 100 ton circuit with 37.5 feet of line, the pipe O.D. should be 3 1/8 in.
There are four long-radius elbows in this section of piping. Using Table 5 and the pipe OD of 3 1/8 in., these fittings represent 20.4 feet (4 elbows @
5.1 feet each). Therefore our new equivalent line length is 45.4 feet (25 +
20.4). Table 6 indicates that 45.4 equivalent feet still permits the use of 3 1/8 in. O.D. pipe.
In sizing the horizontal and/or downflow portion of the suction line, it is necessary to account for the total equivalent length of the line.
Note: In this example, the horizontal line is pitched downward in the direction of flow
Using T able 7 and 150 feet of equivalent pipe length for a 100 ton circuit, a pipe O.D. of 4 1/8 in. is specified. There are no fittings in the 75 foot horizontal run, so no equivalent fitting lengths need to be determined.
Add the 75 feet of horizontal and/or downflow line to the 45.4 feet of horizontal and/or upflow line, resulting in 120.5 of equivalent pipe length. Table 7 at 125 feet (use the dimension closest to the calculated dimension) indicates the use of 4 1/8 in. O.D. pipe. Therefore, the 4 1/8 in line will have to be reduced for the vertical sections of the line and expanded again for the horizontal sections.

Piping Installation Procedures
The outdoor unit and the evaporator are shipped with a 25 psig holding pressure of dry nitrogen. Do not relieve this pressure until field installation of the refrigerant piping is to be accomplished. This will require the removal of the temporary pipe caps.
Note: Use Type L refrigerant-grade copper tubing only.
The refrigerant lines must be isolated to prevent line vibration from being transferred to the building. Do not secure the lines rigidly to the building at any point.
All horizontal suction lines should be pitched downward, in the direction of flow, at a slope of 1/2 in. per 10 feet of run, This allows for larger line size, which will improve unit efficiency.
Do not use a saw to remove end caps, as this may allow copper chips to contaminate the system. Use a tubing cutter or heat to remove the end caps.
When sweating copper joints, flow dry nitrogen through the system. This prevents scale formation and the possible formation of an explosive mixture of R-22 and air . This will also prevent the formation of toxic phosgene gas, which occurs when refrigerant is exposed to open flame.
WARNING: To prevent Injury or death, due to explosion and/or inhalation of phosgene gas, purge the system thoroughly while sweating connections. Use a pressure regulator in the line between the unit and the high pressure nitrogen cylinder to avoid over-pressurization and possible explosion.
Refrigerant Sensors
The suction line refrigerant sensors must be installed by the contractor installing the refrigerant piping. The sensors are pre-wired and each is “wire-tied” to its respective liquid line. Fittings and adapters for mounting of the sensors are located in the remote evaporator terminal box. See Figure 32 for mounting instructions.

Leak Test and Evacuation
After installation of the refrigerant piping, thoroughly test the system for leaks. Pressure test the system at pressures required by local codes.
Immediately before evacuation, install the liquid line filter cores. These will be shipped with the evaporator.
Note: Do not install these before the circuit is ready for evacuation, as the cores will absorb moisture from the atmosphere.
For field evacuation, use a rotary-type vacuum pump capable of pulling a vacuum of 100 microns or less. Follow the pump manufacturer’s instructions for proper use of the pump. The line used to connect the pump to the system should be copper and be the largest diameter that can be practically used. A larger line size with minimum flow resistance can significantly reduce evacuation time.
Use the ports on the compressor suction service valves and the liquid line shutoff valves for access to the system for evacuation. Insure that the compressor suction service valve, the liquid line shutoff valve, the oil line shutoff valve and any field installed valves are open in the proper position before evacuating.
Insulate the entire suction line and the suction accumulator line. Where the line is exposed to the weather, wrap it with weatherproof tape and seal with weatherproof compound.
Refrigerant and Additional Oil Charge
Refrigerant Charge Determination
The approximate amount of refrigerant charge required by the system must be determined by referring to Table 8 and must be verified by running the system and checking the liquid line sightglasses.
Table 8 System Refrigerant Charge
Circuit Size Lbs. of R-22
70 130 85 165
100 170
To determine the appropriate charge, first refer to Table 8 to establish the required charge required without the field-installed piping. Next, determine the charge required for the field­installed piping by referring to Table 9.
Table 9 Field-installed Piping Charge
Pipe O.D. Suction Liquid
(inches) Line Line
1 3/8 1.2 63.0 1 5/8 1.7 89.2 2 1/8 2.9 155.2 2 5/8 4.5 239.4 3 1/8 6.4 — 4 1/8 11.3
Note: The amounts of refrigerant listed in Table 9 are based on 100 feet of pipe. Actual requirements will be in direct proportion to the actual length of piping.
Note: Table 9 assumes:
Liquid Temperature = 100 F Suction Temperature = 35 F Suction Superheat Temperature = 8 F
The approximate amount of refrigerant is therefore the sum of the values determined from Tables 8 and 9.
Example:
Determine the approximate amount of charge required for an RT AA 200 ton unit with a remote evaporator that is located 75 feet away (i.e. the actual length of field installed pipe is 75 feet for each suction line and liquid line). Assume that the suction lines have been previously determined to be 4 1/8 in., O.D. and the liquid lines are 1 3/8 in. O.D.
A 200 ton unit has two 100 ton circuits. From Table 8 above, a 100 ton circuit requires 170 lbs. of R-22. In addition, the 4 1/8 in. 0. D. suction line for the 100 ton circuit will require 11.3 lbs. per 100 feet of the 75 feet of line will therefore require 8.5 lbs. (11.3 times 75/100).
Similarly from Table 9, the 1 3/8 in. O.D. liquid line will require 47.3 lbs. of R-22 (63 times 75/100). The total R-22 charge for the 100 ton circuit will be 225.8 lbs. (170 + 8.5 + 47.3). And because the RTAA 200 has two 100 ton circuits, the total system charge will be twice as much, or 461.6 lbs.
Oil Charge Determination
The unit is factory charged with the amount of oil required by the system, without the field-installed piping. The amount of additional oil required is dependent upon the amount of refrigerant that is added to the system for the field-installed piping.
Use the following formula to calculate the amount of oil to be added:
Pints of Oil (T rane Oil-15) = lbs. of refrigerant added for field-installed piping/18.375
From the example above, in which the weight of the additional refrigerant added for the field-installed piping was
55.8 lbs. (47.3 + 8.5), the amount of oil to be added equals 3 pints (55.8/18.375) per circuit.

If the unit is equipped with the optional control power transformer, it is not necessary to provide control power voltage to the unit.
Caution: 200/230 volt units are factory connected as 200 volt units. For 230 volt units, the leads must be moved to the appropriate terminals on the transformer (1T1). See Unit Wiring Diagrams.
If the transformer is not provided, connect control power (115V , 750VA, 15 amp maximum fuse size) to terminals 1TB3-1 and 1TB3-2, on 130-200 units. Use 1TB3-1 and 1TB4-1 on 240-400 units.
Heat T ape Power Supply (Packaged Units Only)
Note: Units with the Remote
Evaporator option do not have heat tape.
The evaporator shell and optional Domestic Water Heater are insulated from ambient air and protected from freezing temperatures by a thermostatically-controlled heat tape. Whenever the water temperature drops to approximately 37 F, the thermostat energizes the heat tape. The heat tape will provide protection from ambient temperatures down to -20 F.
Provide an independent power source (115V, 15 amp), with a fused­disconnect. The heat tape is factory wired back to the unit control panel. Customer connections are made on terminal strip 1TB3-11 and 1TB3-12 on 130-200 units or 1TB3-10 and 1TB4-1 0 on 240-400 units.
Water Pump Power Supply
Provide power supply wiring with fused disconnect for the chilled water pump(s).
Auxiliary Heat Tape Power Supply
Provide power wiring and properly sized fused-disconnect for any electrical heat tape installed on the system water piping.

Interconnecting Wiring
Chilled Water Pump Interlock and External Auto/Stop for Model RTAA Air-Cooled Series R CenTraVac
Caution: The following must be adhered to or equipment damage may occur.
The Model RTAA Series R chiller requires a minimum of two field­supplied control inputs:
Chilled water pump interlock (TB3-1, -
2 on the 1U1 board).
External Auto/Stop (T133-3, -4 on the
1U1 board)
When there is a command to shut down the chilled water system, the chilled water pump is required to operate for a minimum of one minute after the External AUTO/STOP gives the shutdown command.
Normally, when the compressors are terminating a cycle (via chiller Stop/ Reset switch, loss of load, Low Ambient Run Inhibit or External Auto/ Stop), the controller will initiate the “Run:Unload” mode. This operating mode energizes the unload solenoid for 20 seconds, to unload the compressor so that it will be unloaded for the next start-up. Then the master oil solenoid is de-energized and closure of the master oil solenoid is verified. The entire process may take up to 40 seconds.
If the chilled water pump interlock is used without the external Auto/Stop input, the chiller will shut down immediately upon the command for shut down, without initiating the “Run:Unload” mode. This is considered a “non-friendly” shut down and a “Machine Auto Reset” diagnostic will be displayed on the LICK
Caution: The method in the previous paragraph is not to be used as a normal means of cycling the chiller off, e.g. time clock, building automation system, etc.
The proper method for cycling the chiller off is to open a set of contact between TB3-3, -4 on the 1U1 board (External Auto/Stop). Then, following a one minute delay, the chilled water pump is cycled off. Chilled water flow indication should be provided between TB3-1, -2 on the 1U1 board, e.g. water pump motor starter auxiliaries and/or flow switch.
69
The wiring for this recommendation is shown in the furnished electrical schematics and connection diagrams. Relay 5DL1 is a normally-open, instantaneous close, timed open (1 min.) time delay relay. An alternative solution is to provide proper programming in a building automation system.
Chilled Water Pump Interlock
The installer must provide leads 520 and 521 from the chilled water pump (5B1) starter auxiliary (5K1) to the proper terminals of terminal strip 1U1 TB3 on the UCM, as shown in Figures 34 thru 36. Circuit requirement is 115 VAC, with minimum contact rating @ 115 V AC of 6.9 VA inrush, 1.3 VA sealed. Refer to the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
The auxiliary contact of the chilled water pump may be wired in series with an optional flow switch, as shown. The standard UCM provides internal protection for the unit against loss of chilled water flow. Also refer to “Evaporator Flow Switch.”
External Auto/Stop Wiring
If the unit requires the Auto/Stop function, the installer must provide leads 522 and 523 from the remote contacts (5K5, 5K21) to the proper terminals of the terminal strip 1U1 TB3 on the UCM, as shown in Figures 34 thru 36.
The chiller will run normally when the contacts are closed. When either contact opens, the compressor(s), if operating, will go to the RUN:UNLOAD operating mode and cycle off. Unit operation will be inhibited. Re-closure of the contacts will permit the unit to automatically return to normal operation.
Circuit requirements are 2-wire, 115 VAC, with minimum contact rating @ 115 V AC of 6.9 VA inrush, 1.3 VA sealed. Refer to the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.

Alarm/Running/Maximum Capacity Outputs
Terminals 1 to 8 on terminal strip TB4 of the 1U1 board provide a variety of contact outputs. These are dependent upon the setting of Menu Item 4E and its relationship to diagnostics, compressors operating and the system operating at full capacity.
Table 11 Alarm/Running/Maximum Capacity Relay Output Configurations
Relay Output Configuration 1: RLY 1 = Alarm
RLY 2 = Compressor Running RLY 3 = Maximum Capacity
2: RLY 1 = Circuit I Alarm

RL Y 2 = Circuit 1 Running RL Y 3 = Circuit 2 Running
As shown in Figure 37, there are three relays. Relays 1 and 2 have SPDT contacts. Relay 3 has SPST normally open contacts. The relays can provide three different output configurations, as shown in Table 11, and each configuration offers four choices as to how the alarm relay is to respond to a set of diagnostics.

Alarm/Running/Maximum Capacity Indicator Wiring
If the optional remote Alarm/Running/ Maximum Capacity contacts are used, provide electrical power, 115 VAC (contact load not to exceed 1150 V A inrush, 115 VA sealed), with fused­disconnect to a customer-furnished remote device. Also provide proper remote device ground connection.
To install the available remote running and alarm indication, the installer must provide leads 525 thru 532 from the panel to the proper terminals of terminal strip 1U1TB4 on the UCM, as shown in Figures 31 thru 32. Refer to the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
Low Voltage Wiring
The remote devices described below require low voltage wiring. All wiring to and from these remote input devices to the UCM must be made with shielded, twisted pair conductors. Be sure to ground the shielding only at the UCM. See Figures 34 thru 36 for the recommended conductor sizes.
Caution: To prevent control malfunctions, do not run low voltage wiring (<30 V) in conduit with conductors carrying more than 30 volts.
Emergency Stop (Normal Trip)
The UCM provides auxiliary control for a customer specified/installed latching tripout. When this customer-furnished remote contact (5K18) is provided, the chiller will run normally when the contact is closed. When the contact opens, the unit will trip off on a manually resettable diagnostic. This condition requires manual reset at the chiller switch on the front of the UCM.
To connect, first remove the jumper located between terminals 3 and 4 of 1U1,TB1 on the UCM. Connect low voltage leads 513 and 514 to those terminals. Terminal strip locations are shown in Figures 34 thru 36. Refer to the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
Silver or gold-plated contacts are recommended. These customer­furnished contacts must be compatible with 12 VDC, 45 mA resistive load.
External Circuit Lockout – Circuit #1
The UCM provides auxiliary control of a customer specified or installed contact closure, for individual operation of Circuit #1. If the contact is open, the refrigerant circuit will not operate. Upon closure, the refrigerant circuit will run normally. This feature is used to restrict total chiller operation, e.g. during emergency generator operations.
External circuit lockout will only function if menu item 3b is enabled.
These customer-supplied contact closures must be compatible with 12 VDC, 45 mA resistive load. Silver or gold plated contacts are recommended.
RTAA 130-200
To install, cut, strip and wire-nut existing wire loop #W59 on the P43 connector of the 1U4 module to low voltage leads 45A and 45B. Connections are shown in the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
RTAA 240-400
To install, cut, strip and wire-nut existing wire loop #W53 on the P43 connector of the 1U4 module to low voltage leads 568 and 569. Connections are shown in the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
External Circuit Lockout – Circuit #2
The UCM provides auxiliary control of a customer specified or installed contact closure, for individual operation of Circuit #2. If the contact is open, the refrigerant circuit will not operate. Upon closure, the refrigerant circuit will run normally. This feature is used to restrict total chiller operation, e.g. during emergency generator operations.
These customer-supplied contact closures must be compatible with 12 VDC, 45 mA resistive load. Silver or gold plated contacts are recommended.
External circuit lockout will only function if menu item 3b is enabled.
RTAA 130-200
To install, cut, strip and wire-nut existing wire loop #W60 on the P53 connector of the 1U5 module to low voltage leads 46A and 46B. Connections are shown in the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
RTAA 240-400
To install, cut, strip and wire-nut existing wire loop #W55 on the P63 connector of the 1U6 module to low voltage leads 566 and 567. Connections are shown in the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
Ice Making Option
Menu Item 32 must be Enabled. The UCM provides auxiliary control for a customer specified/installed contact closure for ice making. When contact (5K20) is provided, the chiller will run normally when the contact is open. Upon contact closure, the UCM will initiate an ice-building mode, in which the unit runs fully loaded at all times. Ice-building shall be terminated either by opening the contact or based on the entering evaporator water temperature (Menu Item 33 = Setpoint). The UCM will not permit the ice-building mode to be reentered until the unit has been switched out of ice-building mode (open 5K20 contacts) and then switched back into ice-building mode (close 5K20 contacts.)
In ice-building, both the 1.5 F/min. pulldown rate limit and freeze avoidance will be ignored and the current unit setpoint will be set at 120%. For example, if the Front Panel or External Current Limit setpoint is set to 80%, in ice-building the Active Current Limit is 120%.
If, while in ice-building mode, the unit gets down to the freezestat setting (water or refrigerant), the unit will shut down on a manually resettable diagnostic, just as in normal operation.
Connect leads 501 and 502 from 5K20 to the proper terminals of 1U2,TB1 on the UCM, as shown in Figures 34 thru
36. Refer to the field diagrams which are shipped with the unit.
Silver or gold-plated contacts are recommended. These customer furnished contacts must be compatible with 12 VDC, 45 mA resistive load.

This option allows the external setting of the Chilled Water Setpoint, independent of the Front Panel Chilled Water Setpoint, by one of three means:
1. A remote resistor/potentiometer input (fixed or adjustable)

1. Remote Resistor/Potentiometer Input (fixed or adjustable)
Connect the remote resistor and/or potentiometer to terminals TB1 -3 and TB1 -5 of Options Module 1U2, as shown in Figure 38.
For units with 40 F to 60 F LCWS range, a field-furnished 25 Kohm linear taper potentiometer (±10%) and a fixed 5.6 Kohm (±10%) 1/4 watt resistor should be used.
For units with 20 F to 39 F LCWS range, a field-furnished 25 Kohm linear taper potentiometer (±1 0%) and a fixed 15 Kohm (±1 0%) 1/4 watt resistor should be used.
If the potentiometer is to be remotely mounted, it and the resistor must be connected to the UCM prior to mounting. Then, with the UCM display in Menu 0 and the display advanced to “Active Chilled Water Setpoint”, the UCM can be used to calibrate the positions of the potentiometer to correspond with the desired settings for the leaving water temperature.

Optional Bidirectional Communications Link (BCL)
This option allows the UCM in the control panel to exchange information (e.g. operating setpoints and Auto/ Standby commands) with a higher level control device, such as a Tracer, a multiple-machine controller or a remote display panel. A shielded, twisted-pair connection establishes the bidirectional communications link between the unit control panel and the Tracer, multiple-machine controller or remote display panel.
Note: The shielded, twisted-pair conductors must run in a separate conduit.
Caution: To prevent control malfunctions, do not run low voltage wiring (<30 V) in conduit with conductors carrying more than 30 volts.
General
Field wiring for the communication link must meet the following requirements:
1. All wiring must be in accordance with the NEC and local codes.
2. Communication link wiring must be 18 AWG shielded, twisted-pair wiring (Belden 8760, or equivalent).
3. The maximum total wire length for each communication link is 5,000 feet.
4. The communication link cannot pass between buildings.
5. All UCM’s on the communication link can be connected in a “daisy chain” configuration.
Communication Link Connection Procedure
1. Refer to the T racer installation literature to determine proper communication link termination connections at the Tracer unit.
2. Refer to RTAA-IOM-2 for installation/ operation of Remote Display Panel.
3. Connect the shield of the communication link wiring to the designated shield terminal at the Tracer unit.
4. Connect leads 561 and 562 from the proper terminals of 1U2,TB2 on the UCM to the T racer, as shown in Figures 31 thru 33. There is no polarity requirement for this connection.
5. At the UCM the shield should be cut and taped to prevent any contact between the shield and ground. See Figures 31 thru 33.
Note: On multiple-unit installations, splice the shielding of the two twisted-pairs that come into each UCM in the “daisy chain” system. Tape the spliced connections to prevent any contact between the shield and ground. At the last UCM in the chain, the shield should be cut and taped off.
6. For unit ICS address selection see menu item “4C”.

Operating Principles – Mechanical
General
This section describes the mechanical operating principles of Series R air­cooled chillers equipped with microcomputer-based control systems.
The 130 thru 400-ton Model RTAA units are dual-circuited, helical-rotary type air-cooled liquid chillers. The basic components of an RTAA unit are:
- Unit Control Module (UCM)
- Unit-mounted panel
- Helical-rotary compressor
- Direct Expansion evaporator
- Air-cooled condenser
- Oil supply system (hydraulic and lubrication)
- Interconnecting piping Components of a typical RTAA unit are
identified in Figures 1 thru 6.
Refrigeration (Cooling) Cycle
Cycle Description
Figures 40 and 41 represent the refrigeration system and control components. Vaporized refrigerant leaves the evaporator and is drawn into the compressor . Here it is compressed and leaves the compressor as a mixture of hot gas and oil (which was injected during the compression cycle).
The mixture enters the oil separator at the two in/out caps. The separated oil flows to the bottom of the separator , while the refrigerant gas flows out the top and passes on to the tubes in the condensing coils. Here circulating air removes heat from the refrigerant and condenses it.
The condensed refrigerant passes through the electronic expansion valve and into the tubes of the evaporator . As the refrigerant vaporizes, it cools the system water that surrounds the tubes in the evaporator.
Compressor Description
The compressors used by the Model RTAA Series “R” Air-cooled chiller consists of two distinct components: the motor and the rotors. Refer to Figure 42.
Compressor Motor
A two-pole, hermetic, squirrel-cage induction motor directly drives the compressor rotors. The motor is cooled by suction refrigerant gas from the evaporator, entering the end of the motor housing through the suction line, as shown in Figures 40 and 41.
Compressor Rotors
The compressor is a semi-hermetic, direct drive helical rotary type compressor. Each compressor has only three moving parts: T wo rotors ­“male” and ‘female” - provide compression, and a slide valve controls capacity. See Figure 42. The male rotor is attached to, and driven by, the motor, and the female rotor is, in turn, driven by the male rotor. Separately housed bearing sets are provided at each end
both rotors. The slide valve is located
of above, and moves along, the top of the rotors.
The helical rotary compressor is a positive displacement device. The refrigerant from the evaporator is drawn into the suction opening at the end of the motor barrel, through a suction strainer screen, across the motor, and into the intake of the compressor rotor section. The gas is then compressed and discharged directly into the discharge line.
There is no physical contact between the rotors and compressor housing. The rotors contact each other at the point where the driving action between the male and female rotors occurs. Oil is injected along the top of the compressor rotor section, coating both rotors and the compressor housing interior. Although this oil does provide rotor lubrication, its primary purpose is to seal the clearance spaces between the rotors and compressor housing.
A positive seal between these internal parts enhances compressor efficiency by limiting leakage between the high pressure and low pressure cavities.
Capacity control is accomplished by means of a slide valve assembly located in the rotor section of the compressor. Positioned along the top of the rotors, the slide valve is driven by a piston/cylinder along an axis that parallels those of the rotors.
Compressor load condition is dictated by the position of the slide valve over the rotors. When the slide valve is fully extended over the rotors and away from the discharge end, the compressor is fully loaded. Unloading occurs as the slide valve is drawn towards the discharge end. Slide valve unloading lowers refrigeration capacity by reducing the compression surface of the rotors.
Compressor Loading Sequence
When there is a call for chilled water , the UCM will start the compressor which has the least number of starts. If the first compressor cannot satisfy the demand, the UCM will start another compressor and then balance the load on all compressors by pulsing the load/ unload solenoids.
The load on the compressors will be kept in balance, as load fluctuates, until the demand for chilled water is reduced to a level that can be handled by one compressor . At this time, the UCM will drop off the compressor that has the greatest number of operating hours and will adjust the load on the other compressor, as required.

Oil System Operation
Overview
Oil that collects in the bottom of the oil separator is at condensing pressure during compressor operation; therefore, oil is constantly moving to lower pressure areas. Refer to Figure 43.
As the oil leaves the separator, it passes through the air-cooled oil cooler at the top of the condensing coils. It then goes through the service valve and filter . At this point, some of the oil is used to control the slide valve movement in the compressor , via the load/unload solenoids. The remaining oil passes through the oil master solenoid valve and performs the functions of compressor bearing lubrication and compressor oil injection. If the compressor stops for any reason, the master solenoid valve closes, isolating the oil charge in the separator and oil cooler during “off” periods.
To ensure proper lubrication and minimize refrigerant condensation in the compressor, a heater is mounted on the bottom of the compressor housing. A signal from the UCM energizes this heater during the compressor “Off” cycle to keep refrigerant from condensing in the compressor. The heater element is continuously energized.
Domestic Water Heater
The Domestic Water Heater option utilizes available waste heat from the compressor oil circuit, to heat domestic or process water. Normally, the excess heat is dissipated to the atmosphere by fans moving air over the oil cooler.
The high temperature oil that leaves the oil separator enters the domestic water heater. Heat is transferred from the oil to the cool water that enters the heater. The oil then passes either through the unit’s air-cooled oil cooler, where additional heat is removed, if required, or through the air-cooled oil cooler bypass solenoid, that is operated by a thermostat on the oil supply line.
Water that is heated in the domestic water heater exits the heater and flows to the system.

Oil Separator
The oil separator consists of a U­shaped tube, joined at the top by the refrigerant discharge line from the compressor. As shown in Figure 44, the discharge line is essentially tangential to the U-tubes. This causes the refrigerant to swirl in the tubes and throws the oil to the outside, where it collects on the walls and flows to the bottom. The compressed refrigerant vapor, stripped of oil droplets, exits out the top of the oil separator and is discharged into the condensing coils.
Compressor Bearing Oil Supply
Oil is injected into the bearing housings located at each end of both the male and female rotors. Each bearing housing is vented to compressor suction, so that oil leaving the bearings returns through the compressor rotors to the oil separator.
Figure 44 Oil Separator
Compressor Rotor Oil Supply
Oil flows through this circuit directly from the master solenoid valve through the oil filter to the top of the compressor rotor housing. There it is injected along the top of the rotors to seal clearance spaces between the rotors and the compressor housing and to lubricate the rotors.

Slide Valve Movement
Movement of the slide valve piston determines slide valve position which, in turn, regulates compressor capacity. Oil flow into and out of the cylinder governs piston movement, and is controlled by the normally-closed, load and unload solenoid valves.
The solenoid valves receive momentary pulsating “load” and “Unload” voltage signals from the UCM based on system cooling requirements. the UCM opens the load solenoid valve while keeping the unload solenoid valve closed. The pressurized oil flow then enters the cylinder and forces the slide valve to move over the rotors.
The compressor is unloaded when the load solenoid valve is kept closed and the unload solenoid valve is opened. Oil “trapped” within the cylinder is drawn out into the lower-pressure suction area of the compressor. As the pressurized oil leaves the cylinder, the slide valve gradually moves away from the rotors.
both solenoid valves are closed,
When the present level of compressor loading is maintained.
Just prior to a normal compressor shutdown, the unload solenoid valve is energized and the slide valve moves to the fully-unloaded position, so the unit always starts fully unloaded.
To load the compressor,
Oil Filter
Each refrigerant circuit is equipped with replaceable-element oil filters. The filter(s) remove any impurities that could foul the solenoid valve orifices and compressor internal oil supply galleries. This also prevents excessive wear of compressor rotor and bearing surfaces. Refer to the maintenance portion of this manual for recommended filter element replacement intervals.
Condenser Fans
The RTAA Series offers either the 15 F or 0 F ambient fan configuration. On the 0 F ambient option, the lead fan(s) on each circuit is a half-airflow (half­pitch blade) fan(s). Half pitch fans have a blade pitch of 150 and full pitch fans have a blade pitch of 27°.
Figures 45 and 46 show the number of fans installed on each model, the designation of fan contactors and the staging of fans as the UCM calls for more condenser cooling. Fan staging is a function of the difference between the saturated condenser refrigerant temperature and the saturated evaporator refrigerant temperature, which in turn is a function of the load and ambient temperature. Any number of fans can be operating at a given time, depending on these variables.

The exclusive Trane Adaptive Control logic is comprised of a system of individual modules called the Unit Control Module (UCM), located in the Control Panel. The system consists of four types of microprocessor-based components and the operator interface, as shown in Figures 47 thru 51. The processors are:
Chiller Module (Base or Deluxe) - 1U1 Communication and Setpoint Reset
Option Module - 1U2 Expansion Valve Module - 1U3 Compressor Module (one per
compressor) - 1U4, 1U5, 1U6, 1U7 Slave Expansion Valve Module
(240 -400 ton units) - 1U8 The Adaptive Control Chiller Module is
available in two versions, a base model and a deluxe model. The deluxe model offers the additional features of:
1. Under/Over Voltage Protection
(Includes U/O voltage sense
transformer).
2. Display of Compressor Starts and
Hours
3. Display of % Line Volts
4. Alarm/Running/Max Capacity
Contacts Local operator interface with the
system is accomplished using the four display buttons on the LICK Data readouts are shown on the seven-digit, digital display. The three-position switch is used to set chiller operation.

Menus
There are six menus, four of which are shown on the operator interface panel and two factory displays, which are described later in this section. The menus are numbered as follows:
Operating Display - Menu 0 Service #1 Display - Menu 1 Service #2 Display - Menu 2 Auxiliary Options Display - Menu 3 Factory Display - Menu 4 Factory Display - Menu 5
Each menu can be considered to be a page of data, formatted as shown in Figure 52. The operator can view one line of the menu at a time (menu item) on the digital display and can scroll through the menu by using the Display Up and Display Down keys. For example, when the digital display shows “P 0”, the UCM is in the “Operating Display” menu. By depressing the Display Down key one time, the next line of the menu, “Operating Code”, will be shown as an “A”, along with the current unit operating status. All operating and diagnostic codes are described on the “Condition Codes” label, as shown in Figure 53.
There are a few exceptions to the scrolling function. When a menu selection represents multiple pieces of information:
“C” Menu Item - Other Diagnostic Codes”: When this menu item is selected, depressing the Display Down key will display diagnostic history in code number sequence. Use the Display Up key to return to the top of the list. While in the “C” menu item, flashing indicates that the information is currently “true”, whereas steady, or non-flashing indicates historic data only. The digital display will not advance to the next item (d) until all diagnostics have been displayed. If there are no diagnostics to display, the data field will be blank for one key stroke.
Compressor/Circuit Parameters: Because the unit has two, three or four compressors and two refrigerant circuits, items that refer to compressors or circuits will remain selected until information for all have been displayed. For example, assume a “29”, “Compressor Starts”, menu selection on a two compressor unit. The menu numbered “29” will be displayed and the indicator over the “A” compressor will be flashing. By depressing the Display Down key one time, the “29” will remain but the indicator light over the “B” compressor will be flashing. Another Display Down
key stroke will display menu “2A”, Compressor Hours, with compressor “A” indicator flashing. If either the Display Up or Display down keys are held down, the scrolling will continue until the key is released, or until reaching the top or bottom of the menu. In this case, the display will return to the “P” menu position and stop.
To change menus, scroll to the “P” menu position and use the Set Point Up or Set Point Down keys. For example, assume that the display shows “P 0” and it is desired to view the Auxiliary Options on Menu 3. Depress the Set Point Up key three times and the “P 3” menu will be displayed. To return to Menu 0, depress the Set Point Down key three times or Set Point Up key once (to wrap around) and “P 0” will be displayed. This procedure will work for menus 0 through 3.
A combination of key strokes is required to access menus 4 and 5. With the display in the “P” menu position (P), use the Set Point Up and Down keys to display “0, 1, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 3, 4”. Once in the “P 4” menu, use the Set Point Up key to access menu 5.
All menus are always accessible, whether the unit is in a “running” or ‘stopped” mode.

Chiller Switch
The chiller switch has three positions:
Top Position AUTO REMOTE Middle Position AUTO LOCAL Bottom Position STOP/RESET
With the switch in the AUTO REMOTE position, the chiller will operate normally using remote setpoints. Read and write remote communications may be performed. Any call for cooling based on Leaving Water Temperature (LWT) and the remote (e.g. Tracer) setpoints, will start the unit. The active chilled water setpoint (CWS) can be the remote CWS, a reset remote setpoint based on return, zone, or outdoor temperature reset, or a 4-20 mA/0-10 VDC external CWS. The active Current Limit Setpoint (CLS) can be the Remote CLS or a 4-20 mA/0-10 VDC External CLS. If remote communication is lost, the UCM will revert to the Front Panel (or local) chiller settings.
When the chiller switch is in the AUTO LOCAL position, the chiller will operate normally using Front Panel (or local) setpoints. Read and write remote communications may be performed, but remote setpoints cannot be used for control. The unit will run when there is a call for cooling based on the LWT and the Front Panel or local setpoints. The active CWS can be the local setpoint, a reset setpoint based on return, zone, or outdoor temperature reset, or a 4-20 mA/0-10 VDC external CWS. The active Current Limit Setpoint can be the local setpoint or a 4-20 mA/ 0-10 VDC External CLS. Remote (e.g. Tracer) setpoints communicated over the serial communications link will be ignored, but remote devices can still read all unit control data.
In the STOP/RESET position, the UCM is powered but operation of the unit is prevented. All outputs are de-energized and the chiller is stopped. The alarm relay output may be energized if an alarm condition exists.
If any of the chillers are running when the chiller is put into the STOP/RESET position, the chiller will go into the Run: Unload mode for at least 20 seconds before shutting down the compressors.
Although not a “position” on the chiller switch, it can be used to perform the function of manually resetting all latching diagnostics and clearing all historic diagnostics. Latching diagnostics can be reset by manually toggling the chiller switch from the STOP/RESET position to either AUTO position.
Historic diagnostics (“C” menu item) can be cleared by depressing the “Display Down” key while manually toggling the chiller switch from the STOP/RESET position to either AUTO position (no compressor operating).
Moving the chiller switch from the STOP/RESET position to either AUTO position will reset the controls, with one exception. If the chiller operating status is Run:Unload, this sequence will go to completion before the reset is executed. During the completion of the Run:Unload, the reset is “queued up” and operated on only after completion of the Run:Unload. After reset is completed, the digital display will return to “A” Operating Code.

Menu Function Descriptions and Selection
Selecting Variables and Options
All variables and options will be set by depressing the SET POINT UP and SET POINT DOWN keys. The setpoints will be increased or decreased by one least significant digit (1 F, 0. 1 C, or 1 integer value) with each key depression. If the key is held down, the setpoint will continue to be increased or decreased until the key is released. The minimum and maximum values of all setpoints are limited by system design and the setting operation will stop when either the minimum or maximum setpoint is displayed. See Figure 52 for setpoint ranges.
Options are also selected using the SET POINT UP and SET POINT DOWN keys. Use the SET POINT UP key to select the “Enable” option and the letter “E” will appear on the display. Use the SET POINT DOWN key to select the “Disable” option and the letter “d” will be displayed. Certain items in Menus 4 and 5 will be integers with various endpoints and units. See Figure 52.
Menu 0 – Operating Display
A - Operating Code: This is the current unit operating status, e.g. A 74, which, as shown in Figure 53, is Run:Normal.
b - Last Diagnostic Code: The last diagnostic detected by the UCM is stored and can be seen by displaying this I item.
C - Other Diagnostics: All diagnostics detected by the UCM will be stored in preprescribed code number sequence, as shown in Figure 53, rather than the order in which they occurred. All flashing codes found under this item are currently active or “Latched” diagnostics. For additional information, see “Menus”.
Diagnostics will be stored only once, even though the diagnostic may have occurred several times. There is no chronological sequence to the diagnostics that may be in the “C” menu item.
d - Active Chilled W ater Setpoint: The setpoint (display only) to which the chiller is controlling. This may be the same as the Front Panel Chilled water Setpoint (code 10 in Menu 1), but it may also be a setpoint that is being reset or loaded from a remote controller , such as a Tracer, multiple­machine controller, or a remote display panel.
E - Evap. Entering W ater Temp.: The temperature of the water as measured by the evaporator entering water temperature sensor . F - Evap. Leaving Water Temp.: The temperature of the water as measured by the evaporator leaving water temperature sensor.
L - Active Current Limit Setpoint: The current limit setpoint (display only) to which the chiller is controlled. This may be the same as the Front Panel Current Limit setpoint (code 13 in Menu 1), but it may also be a setpoint that was loaded from a remote controller, such as a Tracer, multiple-machine controller.
Menu 1 – Service #1 Display
10 - Front Panel Chilled Water Setpoint: The temperature selected at the UCM for the desired chilled water.
11 - Design Delta Temp. Setpoint: The difference between the entering and leaving chilled water temperatures at full load. This will be a function of GPM through the evaporator.
12 - Differential To Start Setpoint: This temperature, when added to the leaving chilled water setpoint, is the temperature at which the chiller will be started.
Note: 1.5 F below chill water setpoint, the UCM will initiate an integrator to shut off the l decrease in cooling load.
13 - Front Panel Current Limit Setpoint, The percent of current limit selected at the UCM for the system. See discussion in “Current Limit Setpoint”.
14 - Outdoor Air Temperature (Optional): The ambient temperature as measured by an outdoor temperature sensor.
ast compressor on a
15 - Low Ambient Lockout (Optional): If the unit is installed with optional Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor, the entry in this code will enable or disable the setpoint in code 16. See discussion in “Low Ambient Lockout”.
16 - Low Amb. Lockout Setpoint (Optional): The temperature of the outside air below which the unit will not be permitted to operate. See discussion in “Low Ambient Lockout”.
17 - Cond. Entering Wtr. Temp.: Not applicable, with this air-cooled condenser unit.
18 - Cond. Leaving Wtr. Temp.: Not applicable, with this air- cooled condenser unit.
19 - Service Pumpdown: Must be manually “Enabled” by service personnel from the UCM display. The unit must be in STOP/RESET and service pumpdown can be performed only once for every power-up of the UCM. Restart inhibit will be ignored, the EXV will be prepositioned (20 seconds) and the compressor selected will start and run for one minute. Manual closing of the liquid line angle valve will be required.
Caution: Do not pumpdown compressor more than once.
1A -Circuit Lockout: Allows service personnel to set a lockout, preventing a circuit from operating. With the display indicating the number of the circuit to be locked out, change the display to “E” for circuit lockout. Once circuit lockout is enabled, the circuit will remain locked out even through a reset or power down. Entering a “d” will return the circuit to operational status.
1b - Circuit Diagnostic Reset: Allows service personnel to reset a Circuit Manual Reset (CMR) diagnostic without having to terminate operation of the entire chiller via the STOP/RESET switch. With the display indicating the number of the circuit to be reset, change the display to “E” to reset. After reset, the display will automatically return to “d”.
