Installation
Refrigerant Handling Procedures
Environmental Accountability Policy
Trane urges that all HVAC servicers to make every effort to eliminate, if possible, or vigorously reduce the emission of CFC, HCFC, and HFC refrigerants to the atmosphere. Always act in a responsible manner to conserve refrigerants for continued usage even when acceptable alternatives are available.
Recover and Recycle Refrigerants
Never release refrigerant to the atmosphere! Always recover and/or recycle refrigerant for reuse, reprocessing (reclaimed), or properly dispose if removing from equipment. Always determine the recycle or reclaim requirements of the refrigerant before beginning the recovery procedure. Obtain a chemical analysis of the refrigerant if necessary. Questions about recovered refrigerant and acceptable refrigerant quality standards are addressed in ARI Standard 700.
Refrigerant Handling and Safety
Consult the manufacturer’s material safety data sheet (MSDS) for information on refrigerant handling to fully understand health, safety, storage, handling, and disposal requirements. Use the approved containment vessels and refer to appropriate safety standards. Comply with all applicable transportation standards when shipping refrigerant containers.
Service Equipment and Procedures
To minimize refrigerant emissions while recovering refrigerant, use the manufacturer’s recommended recycling equipment per the MSDS. Use equipment and methods which will pull the lowest possible system vacuum while recovering and condensing refrigerant. Equipment capable of pulling a vacuum of less than 1,000 microns of mercury is recommended.
Do not open the unit to the atmosphere for service work until refrigerant is fully removed/recovered. When leak-testing with trace refrigerant and nitrogen, use HCFC-22 (R-22) rather than CFC-12 (R-
12) or any other fully-halogenated refrigerant . Be aware of any new leak test methods which may eliminate
information
refrigerants as a trace gas. Perform evacuation prior to charging with a vacuum pump capable of pulling a vacuum of 1,000 microns of mercury or less. Let the unit stand for 12 hours and with the vacuum not rising above 2,500 microns of mercury.
A rise above 2,500 microns of mercury indicates a leak test is required to locate and repair any leaks. A leak test is required on any repaired area.
Charge refrigerant into the equipment only after equipment does not leak or contain moisture. Reference proper refrigerant charge requirements in the maintenance section of this manual to ensure efficient machine operation. When charging is complete, purge or drain charging lines into an approved refrigerant container. Seal all used refrigerant containers with approved closure devices to prevent unused refrigerant from escaping to the atmo­sphere. Take extra care to properly maintain all service equipment directly supporting refrigerant service work such as gauges, hoses, vacuum pumps, and recycling equipment .
When cleaning system components or parts, avoid using CFC-11 (R-11) or CFC­113 (R-113). Use only cleaning-solvents that do not have ozone depletion factors. Properly dispose of used materials. Refrigeration system cleanup methods using filters and driers are preferred. Check for leaks when excessive purge operation is observed.
Keep abreast of unit enhancements, conversion refrigerants, compatible parts, and manufacturer’s recommenda­tions that will reduce refrigerant emis­sions and increase equipment operating efficiencies.

unit nameplate.
Make certain the floor or foundation is
level, solid, and sufficient to support the unit and accessory weights. Level or repair the floor before positioning the unit if neccesary.
Allow minimum recommended
clearances for routine maintenance and service. Refer to unit submittals for dimensions.
Allow three fan diameters above the
unit for the discharge ductwork. Return air enters the rear of the unit and conditioned supply air discharges through the top.
Electrical connection knockouts are on
the top, left side of the unit.
Allow adequate space for piping
access and panel removal. Condenser water piping, refrigerant piping, and condensate drain connections are on the lower left end panel.
Electrical supply power must meet
specific balance and voltage requirements as described in the “Electrical Requirements” section.
Water-cooled units only: The installer
is responsible for providing a condenser main, standby water pump, cooling tower, pressure gauges, strainers, and all components for waterside piping. See the “Water Piping” section for general waterside recommendations.
Air-cooled units only: The installer is
responsible for providing and installing the remote air-cooled condenser and refrigerant piping, including filter driers.

Duct Connections
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 to the unit 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 fan vibration.
Run the ductwork straight from the opening for a minimum of three fan diameters. 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.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure power cannot be inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could result in death or serious injury.
Installation
Water Piping
Condenser Connections
Note: To prevent water damage, install piping drain and vent plugs.
Condenser water piping knockouts are in the lower left end panel. If necessary, remove insulation to gain access. All field installed piping must conform to applicable local, state, and federal codes. To complete condenser water connections follow the procedure below.
1. Remove back panel to access the water connection fittings.
2. Attach the water supply line to the inlet connection, and the return line to the outlet connection. The water connection fittings are copper, so exercise extreme care when connecting steel piping to copper fittings.
3. Ensure that water piping is aligned to the unit connection fittings. Failure to align piping could cause stripped threads, leakage, and possible unit failure.
4. Connection to the unit water piping requires a backing wrench to prevent distortion of connecting tubing. Apply backing wrench to water connection points on unit.
Condensate Drain Connections
Install a water regulating valve in the water supply line to maintainhead pressure when operating with city water of varying temperature.
These units require a minimum water pressure of 15 psig and will operate at a maximum of 400 psig.
Provide safeguards against cold weather drain line freeze.
requirements
Cooling Tower Piping
Cooling tower control affects the unit cycle rates. Condenser water temperature swings from 10-15°F may cause excessive compressor, water valve, and unit cycling. Be sure to set the tower controls to minimize compressor/ unit cycling.
The cooling tower system requires a separate drain in the water supply line for service and repair.
Water Temperature Requirements
Install a water regulating valve in the water supply line to maintain head pressure when operating with water of varying temperature. The valve modulates condenser water flow to control condensing pressure. The valve opens or closes in response to compressor discharge pressure as sensed by its capillary line connection iin the liquid line shrader valve. When the valve is properly installed, water flow automatically decreases as discharge pressure falls and increases as discharge pressure rises. Field installation of the water regulating valve assembly requires one valve for each refrigeration circuit.
PKG-SVX14A-EN 17
mechanical requirementsInstallation
Refrigerant Piping (Air-Cooled Units Only)
Reference industry recommendations for air-cooled unit refrigerant piping. If suspending piping from the building, use isolation hangers to prevent vibration transmission.
Air-cooled units ship with a holding charge of nitrogen. Before installing unit piping, momentarily depress either the suction or discharge line access valve to verify that the holding charge has not been lost. If nitrogen does not escape when depressing the access valve, leak­test the entire refrigerant system to determine the source of loss.
The charge is contained by a continuous loop of both hot gas and liquid lines. You must cut the loop for connection to discharge and liquid lines. See Figure I­MR-1.
WARNING:
Hazard of Explosion and Deadly
Gases! Never solder, braze or weld on refrigerant lines or any unit com­ponents that are above atmo­spheric pressure or where refrigerant may be present. Always remove refrigerant by fol­lowing the guidelines estab­lished by the EPA Federal Clean Air Act or other state or local codes as appropriate. After refrig­erant removal, use dry nitrogen to bring system back to atmospheric pressure before opening system
for repairs. Mixtures of refriger­ants and air under pressure may become combustible in the pres­ence of an ignition source leading to an explosion. Excessive heat from soldering, brazing or weld­ing with refrigerant vapors present can form highly toxic gases and extremely corrosive acids. Failure to follow all proper safe refrigerant handling prac­tices could result in death or seri­ous injury.
Brazing Procedures
Proper brazing techniques are essential when installing refrigerant piping. Keep the following factors in mind when making sweat connections.
1. When heating copper in the presence of air, copper oxide forms. To prevent copper oxide from forming inside the tubing during brazing, sweep an inert gas, such as dry nitrogen, through the tubing. Nitrogen displaces air in the tubing and prevents oxidation of interior surfaces. A nitrogen flow of one to three cubic feet per minute is sufficient to displace the air. Use a pressure regulating valve or flow meter to control the flow.
2. Ensure tubing surfaces that require brazing are clean and the ends of the tubes are carefully reamed to remove any burrs.
3. Make sure the inner and outer tubes of the joint are symmetrical and have a close clearance, providing an easy slip fit. If the joint is too loose, the tensile strength of the connection will be significantly reduced. Make the overlap distance equal to the inner tube diameter.
4. Wrap the body of each refrigerant line component with a wet cloth to keep it cool during brazing. Excessive heat can damage the components.
5. If using flux, apply it sparingly to the joint. Excess flux will contaminate the refrigerant system.
6. Apply heat evenly over the length and circumference of the joint, making sure the entire joint becomes hot enough to melt the brazing material.
Figure I-MR-1. Air-cooled unit refrigerant piping
7. Begin brazing when the joint is hot enough to melt the brazing rod. The hot copper tubing, not the flame, should melt the rod.
8. Continue to apply heat around the joint circumference until the brazing material is drawn into the joint by capillary action, making a mechanically sound and gas-tight connection.
9. Visually inspect the connection after brazing to locate any pin holes or crevices in the joint. Use a mirror to inspect connections that are difficult to see.

Supply Power Wiring
It is the installer’s responsibility to provide power supply wiring to the unit terminal block or the non-fused disconnect switch option. Wiring should conform to NEC and all applicable code requirements.
1. Verify the power supply available is compatible with the unit nameplate ratings. The supply power must be within 10%of the rated voltage listed on the unit nameplate.
2. Reference the electrical data in Table I­ER-1. Protect the electrical service from over current and short circuit conditions in accordance with NEC requirements. Size protection devices according to the electrical data on the unit nameplate.
3. If using a field-supplied disconnect, install it at or near the unit in accordance with NEC. Do not mount a field-supplied disconnect on the unit. Reference the electrical service entrance location on unit submittals.
4. Complete the unit power wiring connections onto either the main terminal block or the field-provided non­fushed disconnect switch.
WARNING
Ground Wire!
All field-installed wiring must be completed by qualified personnel. All field-installed wiring must comply with NEC and applicable local codes. Failure to follow this instruction could result in death or serious injuries.
WARNING
Grounding Required!
Follow proper local and state elec­trical code on requirements for grounding. Failure to follow code could result in death or serious in­jury.
5. Provide proper unit grounding in accordance with local and national codes.
Electrical Data Calculations
RLA = rated load amps Compressor LRA = locked rotor amps Fan motor LRA = locked rotor amps, N.E.C. Table 430 - 151 FLA = Full load amps, N.E.C.
Table 430 - 150
Voltage utilization range is ±10%
Minimum circuit ampacity (MCA) = 1.25 x largest motor amps (FLA or RLA) + the sum of the remaining motor amps.
Maximum fuse size (MFS) and maximum circuit breaker size (MCB) = 2.25 x largest motor amps (FLA or RLA) + the sum of the remaining motor amps.
Note: 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.
Voltage Range
Voltages must be within +- 10% the nameplate voltage. Ensure the unit voltage is balanced by measuring at the compressor terminals. Voltage imbalance on three phase systems can cause motor overheating and premature failure. Maximum allowable imbalance is 2.0%.
Voltage Imbalance
Read the voltage at the compressor terminals to determine if it is balanced. Voltage imbalance on three phase systems can cause motor overheating and premature failure. The maximum allowable imbalance is 2.0%. Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the sum of the deviation of the three voltages from the average (without regard to sign) divided by the average voltage. For example, if the three measured voltages are 221, 230, and 227, the average voltage would be:
(221 + 230 + 227) = 226 volts
The percentage of voltage imbalance is then:
3
(226-221) = 2.2%
100 *
226
In this example, 2.2% imbalance is not acceptable. Whenever a voltage imbalance of more than 2.0% exists, check the voltage at the unit disconnect switch. If the imbalance at the unit disconnect switch does not exceed 2.0%, faulty unit wiring is causing the imbalance. Conduct a thorough inspection of the unit electrical wiring connections to locate the fault, and make any repairs necessary.
WARNING

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 continously, 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,t he thermostat contacts close to provide power to the evaporator fan contactor,t he condensing unit fan contactor,a nd the condensingunit compressor contactors. As the room temperature reaches setpoing, the thermostat contacts open to de-energize all contactors,a nd the system cycles off. This system will remain off until additional cooling is required and the cycle repeats.

maintenance
Refrigerant System
Special Note on Refrigerant Emissions
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 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 that pull the lowest possible system vacuum while recovering and condensing refrigerant into containment.
• When leak checking with trace refrigerant and nitrogen, use HCFC22 (R22) rather than CFC12 (R12) or any other fully halogenated refrigerants. Be aware of any new leak test methods that 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 that 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 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.
WARNING
Confined Space Hazards!
Do not work in confined spaces where sufficient quantities of 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 properly to a potential hazard could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Hazard of Explosion!
Use only dry nitrogen with a pressure regulator to pressurize the unit. Do not use acetylene, oxygen, compressed air, or mixtures containing them. 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, serious injury, equipment, or property-only damage.
WARNING
Leak Testing!
Do not exceed 200 psig when leak testing system. Failure to follow these instructions could result in an explosion causing death or serious injury.
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.
WARNING
Use of Pressure Regulator – Valves – Gauges!
Always use pressure regulators, valves, and gauges to control drum and line pressures when pressure testing equipment. Failure to follow these instructions could result in an explosion causing death, serious injury, or equipment damage.
PKG-SVX14A-EN 27
maintenance

To completely charge the system, charge gaseous refrigerant into the suction line shrader valve with the unit running. However, make sure that some refrigerant is present in each circuit before starting the compressors.
CAUTION Compressor Damage!
Do not allow liquid refrigerant to enter the suction line. Excessive liquid accumulation in the liquid lines may result in compressor damage.
CAUTION Compressor Damage!
Never manually or automatically pump down below 7 psig. This may cause the compressor to operate in a vacuum and result in compresor damage.
