damage and make any necessary claims with the freight delivery company immediately.
Before installing the unit, remember to
allow minimum recommended clearances for routine maintenance and service. Refer to unit dimensions and clearances on submittals or in the Dimensions and Weights section.
Verify the unit is configured properly
prior to beginning unit installation.
Make proper acoustic considerations
before installing unit. Do not install unit near sound-senstive locations.
Allow adequate space for service and
operating clearances. Reference “Service Access” section on this page.
Make provisions for correct supply
power and note electrical connection knockouts locations on the unit submittals or in the Dimensions and Weights section.
Ensure the unit installation location is
level.
Receiving and Handling
Shipping Package
Integral air-cooled units ship assembled on skids. Units ship in the unitary configuration, assembled, piped, and charged with refrigerant.
Receiving Checklist
Complete the following checklist immediately after receiving unit shipment to detect possible shipping damage.
Verify that the unit nameplate data
corresponds to the sales order and bill of lading (including electrical data).
Visually inspect the unit exterior for
physical signs of shipping damage or material shortages.
If a unit appears damaged, inspect it
immediately before accepting the shipment. Remove access panels and check for interior component damage. Make specific notations concerning the damage on the freight bill. Do not refuse delivery.
Report concealed damage to the
freight line within the allotted time after delivery. Verify with the carrier their allotted time to submit a claim.
Note: Failure to follow these procedures may result in no reimbursement for damages from the freight company.
Do not move damaged material from
the receiving location. It is the receiver’s responsibility to provide reasonable evidence that concealed damage did not occur after delivery.
Do not continue unpacking the
shipment if it appears damaged. Retain all packaging. Take photos of damaged material if possible.
Notify the carrier’s terminal of the
damage immediately by phone and mail. Request an immediate joint inspection of the damage by the carrier and consignee.
Notify your Trane representative of
the damage and arrange for repair. Have the carrier inspect the damage before making any repairs to the unit.
Unit Storage
Take precautions to prevent condensate from forming inside the unit’s electrical compartments and motors if the unit is stored before it is installed.
Service Access
Maintain adequate clearances around and above the unit to ensure proper unit operation and allow sufficient service access. Trane recommends 36-inches service access on all sides of the unit.
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.
Acoustic Considerations
Before determining the final unit installation site, remember that proper unit placement is critical in reducing transmitting sound levels to the building. The ideal time to make provisions to reduce sound transmissions is during the design phase. The most economical means of avoiding a potential acoustical problem is to place units in areas that are not acoustically sensitive.
Unit Location
Install the unit in a dry, indoor area between 50 and 115°F. Choose a location where sound levels, airflow and vibration, commonly associated with heavy-duty commercial equipment, will not be objectionable to occupants. In multiple unit installations, separate the individual units and stagger their location from floor to floor so as not to starve units for air and not to discharge warm condenser air from one condenser into the intake of another condenser. Place thermostats, air supplies and returns so that the individual unit will operate within its zone.
Installation Preparation
Before installing the unit, perform the following procedures to ensure proper unit operation.
1. Verify the installation location is level.
To ensure proper unit operation, install the unit level (zero tolerance) in both horizontal axes. Failure to level the unit properly can result in condensate management problems, such as standing water inside the unit. Standing water and wet surfaces inside units can result in microbial growth (mold) in the drain pan that may cause unpleasant odors and serious health-related indoor air quality problem.
2. Allow adequate service and code
clearances as recommended in the Service Access section.
3. Position the unit in its final location.
Unit Placement
Install the unit on a firm, level surface.
Installing Optional Accessories
Before installing ductwork, install accessories on unit.

Ductwork Considerations
Install all air ducts according to the National Fire Protection Association standards for the “Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilation Systems other than Residence Type (NFPA 90A) and Residence Type Warm Air Heating and Air Conditioning Systems (NFPA 90B).
Make duct connections with a flexible material such as heavy canvas. If a fire hazard exists, Trane recommends using Flexweave 1000, type FW30 or equiva­lent canvas. Use three inches for the return duct and three inches for the discharge duct. Keep the material loose to absorb unit vibration.
Run the ductwork as far as possible without changing size or direction. Do not make abrupt turns or transitions near the unit due to increased noise and excessive static losses. Use elbows with splitters or turning vanes to minimize static losses.
Poorly constructed turning vanes may cause airflow generated noise. Check total external static pressures against fan characteristics to be sure the required airflow is available throughout the ductwork.
requirements
Direct louvers up and down for condens­ers air discharge and intake so as to not short circuit condenser air. Pitch outdoor ducts away from unit to protect unit from rain and snow entering with condenser air. Auxiliary louvers and hoods may be required for this purpose. Attach ducts to unit with canvas section duct connectors or other suitable noise and vibration absorbing devices.
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.

If the rating value determined does not equal a standard current rating of over current protective device, use the next lower standard rating for the marked maximum rating.
WARNING
Live electrical components!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components. Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these tasks. Failure to follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.
Voltage Imbalance
Voltage imbalance on three-phase systems can cause motor overheating and premature failure. Maximum allowable imbalance is 2.0%, and the readings used to determine it must be measured at the compressor terminals.
Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the sum of the division of the three voltages from the average voltage. If, for example, the three measured voltages are 221, 230, 227, the average would be:
(221+230+227) = 226 volts 3
The percentage of voltage imbalance is then:
100*(226-221) = 2.2% 226
In this example, 2.2 percent imbalance of more than 2.0 percent exists, be sure to check the voltage at the unit disconnect and terminal block switch. If an imbalance at the unit disconnect switch does not exceed 2.0 percent, the imbalance is caused by faulty wiring within the unit. Be sure to conduct a thorough inspection of the unit electrical wiring connections to locate the fault, and make any repairs necessary.

Sequence of
Operation

Sequence of Operation

The thermostat controls the unit operation. It has both manual and automatic switches so the thermostat maintains desired comfort levels.
The fan switch allows manual selection of the fan speed using the On or Auto setting. With the switch set in the On position, the evaporator fan runs continu­ously, independent from the thermostat temperature setting. The Auto position cycles the evaporator fan on and off with the demand for heating or cooling.
The system switch may have two or more positions. For example, using a cooling only thermostat, the system switch can be set in the Off or the Cool position. The Off position disconnects power from the thermostat contacts that control the condensing unit. This prevents

Operation
the condensing unit from running, regardless of the thermostat tempera­ture setting. The evaporator fan may circulate air if the fan switch is in the On position. With the switch in the Cool position the condensing unit and evapo­rator will operate on a signal from the thermostat calling for cooling.
With the fan switch set to Auto and the system switch set to Cool, the following sequence takes place. On a rise in room temperature, the thermostat contacts close to provide power to the evaporator fan contactor, the condensing unit fan contactor, and the condensing unit compressor contactors. As the room temperature reaches setpoint, the thermostat contacts open to de-energize all contactors, and the system cycles off. This system will remain off until additional cooling is required and the cycle repeats.

maintenance
Refrigerant System
Follow the Trane recommended procedures on operation, maintenance, and service to ensure refrigerant conservation and emission reduction. Also, pay specific attention to the following:
• Whenever removing refrigerant from air conditioning or refrigerating equipment, recover for reuse, recycle, reprocess (reclaim), or properly destroy it.
• Always determine possible refrigerant recycling or reclaiming requirements before beginning recovery. Questions about recovered refrigerants and acceptable refrigerant quality standards are addressed in ARI Standard 700.
• Use approved containment vessels and safety standards. Comply with all applicable transportation standards when shipping refrigerant containers.
• To minimize emissions while recovering refrigerant, use recycling equipment. Always attempt to use methods which will pull the lowest possible system vacuum while recovering and condensing refrigerant into containment.
• When leak checking, be aware of any new leak test methods which eliminate refrigerant as a trace gas.
• When cleaning system components or parts, do not use CFC11 (R11) or CFC113 (R113). Refrigeration system clean up methods using filters and dryers are recommended. Do not use solvents which have ozone depletion factors. Properly dispose of used materials.
• Take extra care to properly maintain all service equipment directly supporting refrigerant service work such as gauges, hoses, vacuum pumps, and recycling equipment.
• Stay aware of unit enhancements, conversion refrigerants, compatible parts, and manufacturer’s recommendations that will reduce refrigerant emissions and increase equipment operating efficiencies. Follow specific manufacturer’s guidelines for conversion of existing systems.
Maintenance
• To assist in reducing power generation emissions, always attempt to improve equipment performance with improved maintenance and operations that will help conserve energy resources.
Refrigerant Leak Testing
WARNING
Confined space hazard!
Do not work in confined spaces where sufficient quantities of a refrigerant or other hazardous, toxic or flammable gas may be leaking. Refrigerant or other gases could displace available oxygen to breathe, causing possible asphyxiation or other serious health risks. Some gases may be flammable and or explosive. Evacuate the area immediately and contact the proper rescue or response authority. Failure to take appropriate precautions or to react preperly to a potential hazard could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Explosion hazard!
Use only dry nitrogen with a pressure regulator for pressurizing unit. Do not use acetylene, oxygen or compressed air or mixtures containing them for pressure testing. Do not use mixtures of a hydrogen containing refrigerant and air above atmospheric pressure for pressure testing as they may become flammable and could result in an explosion. Refrigerant, when used as a trace gas should only be mixed with dry nitrogen for pressurizing units. Failure to follow these recommendations could result in death or serious injury or equipment or property-only damage.
procedures
In the event of required system repair, leak test the liquid line, evaporator coil, and suction line at pressures dictated by local codes, and using the following guidelines.
1. Charge enough refrigerant and dry nitrogen into the system to raise the pressure to 100 psig.
2. Use a halogen leak detector, halide torch, or soap bubbles to check for leaks. Check interconnecting piping joints, the evaporator coil connections, and all accessory connections.
3. If a leak is detected, release the test pressure, break the connections and reassemble it as a new joint, using proper brazing techniques.
4. If no leak is detected, use nitrogen to increase the test pressure to 150 psig and repeat the leak test. Also, use soap bubbles to check for leaks when nitrogen is added.
5. Retest the system to make sure new connections are solid.
6. If a leak is suspected after the system has been fully charged with refrigerant, use a halogen leak detector, halide torch, or soap bubbles to check for leaks.
Refrigerant Evacuation
For field evacuation, use a rotary style vacuum pump capable of pulling a vacuum of 100 microns or less.
When connecting the vacuum pump to a refrigeration system, it is important to manifold the pump to both the high and low side of the system. Follow the pump manufacturer’s directions.
