Important
Environmental Concerns!
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made
chemicals can affect the earth’s naturally occurring
stratospheric ozone layer when released to the
atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified
chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants
that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and
those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and
Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these
compounds have the same potential impact to the
environment.Trane advocates the responsible handling of
all refrigerants-including industry replacements for CFCs
such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Responsible Refrigerant Practices!
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are
important to the environment, our customers, and the air
conditioning industry. All technicians who handle
refrigerants must be certified.The Federal Clean Air Act
(Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling,
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain
refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these
service procedures. In addition, some states or
municipalities may have additional requirements that
must also be adhered to for responsible management of
refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.
WARNING
Refrigerant under High Pressure!
System contains oil and refrigerant under high
pressure. Recover refrigerant to relieve pressure before
opening the system. See unit nameplate for refrigerant
type. Do not use non-approved refrigerants, refrigerant
substitutes, or refrigerant additives. Failure to recover
refrigerant to relieve pressure or the use of nonapproved refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or
refrigerant additives could result in an explosion which
could result in death or serious injury or equipment
damage.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Required!
Installing/servicing this unit could result in exposure to
electrical, mechanical and chemical hazards.
•Before installing/servicing this unit, technicians
MUST put on all PPE required for the work being
undertaken (Examples; cut resistant gloves/sleeves,
butyl gloves, safety glasses, hard hat/bump cap, fall
protection, electrical PPE and arc flash clothing).
ALWAYS refer to appropriate Material Safety Data
Sheets (MSDS)/Safety Data Sheets (SDS) and OSHA
guidelines for proper PPE.
•When working with or around hazardous chemicals,
ALWAYS refer to the appropriate MSDS/SDS and
OSHA/GHS (Global Harmonized System of
Classification and Labelling of Chemicals) guidelines
for information on allowable personal exposure
levels, proper respiratory protection and handling
instructions.
•If there is a risk of energized electrical contact, arc, or
flash, technicians MUST put on all PPE in accordance
with OSHA, NFPA 70E, or other country-specific
requirements for arc flash protection, PRIOR to
servicing the unit. NEVER PERFORM ANY
SWITCHING, DISCONNECTING, OR VOLTAGE
TESTING WITHOUT PROPER ELECTRICAL PPE AND
ARC FLASH CLOTHING. ENSURE ELECTRICAL
METERS AND EQUIPMENT ARE PROPERLY RATED
FOR INTENDED VOLTAGE.
Failure to follow instructions could result in death or
serious injury.

Pre-Installation
Unit Inspection
When unit is delivered, verify it is the correct unit and is
properly equipped. Compare information on the unit
nameplate with ordering and submittal information.
Inspect all exterior components for visible damage.Report
any apparent damage or material shortage to carrier and
make a “unit damage” notation on carrier’s delivery
receipt. Specify extent and type of damage found and
notifyTrane Sales Office. Do not proceed with installation
of a damaged unit without sales office approval.
Inspection
To protect against loss due to damage in transit, complete
the following steps upon receipt of 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.
NotifyTrane sales representative and arrange for repair.
Do not repair unituntil damage is inspectedby the carrier’s
representative.
Storage
Extended storage of outdoor unit prior to installation
requires these precautionary measures:
•Store the outdoor unit in a secure area.
•For units that have been charged with refrigerant,
verify the following valves are closed on each circuit:
• Suction service valve (butterfly valve)
• Liquid line angle valve or EXV (EXV is driven closed
whenever circuit is powered)
• Oil line shutoff valves to brazed plate heat
exchangers
Note: Units with factory refrigerant charge (model
number digit 15 = 1) are shipped with suction,
liquid and oil line shutoff valves closed, isolating
most of refrigerant charge in the evaporator. If unit
goes directly into long term storage, it is
recommended that these valve positions be
confirmed.
•For units with nitrogen charge option (model number
digit 15 = 2), units are shipped with valves open. If unit
goes directly into storage prior to refrigerant charge,
confirm all service valves are open.
•At least every three months (quarterly), check the
pressure in the refrigerant circuits to verify that the
refrigerant charge is intact. If it is not, contact a
qualified service organization and the appropriate
Trane sales office.

applications.
WARNING
Heavy Objects!
Ensure that all the lifting equipment used is properly
rated for the weight of the unit being lifted. Each of the
cables (chains or slings), hooks, and shackles used to
lift the unit must be capable of supporting the entire
weight of the unit. Lifting cables (chains or slings) may
not be of the same length. Adjust as necessary for even
unit lift. Other lifting arrangements could cause
equipment or property damage. Failure to follow
instructions above or properly lift unit could result in
unit dropping and possibly crushing operator/
technician which could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Proper Lifting Configuration Required!
Use only lift locations designated with label shown in
Figure 6. Do NOT use locations marked with label
shown in Figure 7. Use unit lifting configurations as
shown in Table 6 and Figure 8, p. 16 thru Figure 10,
p. 17. Other lifting arrangements could result in death,
serious injury or equipment damage.
Figure 6.Label - lift location
Clearances
Provide enough space around the unit to allow the
installation and maintenance personnel unrestricted
access to all service points. See submittal drawingsfor the
unit dimensions, to provide sufficient clearance for the
opening of control panel doors and unit service. See
Figure 5, p. 14 for minimum clearances. In all cases, local
codes which require additional clearances will take
precedence over these recommendations.
For close spacing information, see RLC-PRB037-EN.

Isolation and Sound Emission
The most effective form of isolation is to locate the unit
away from any sound sensitive area. Structurally
transmitted sound can be reduced by elastomeric
vibration eliminators. Spring isolators are not
recommended. Consult an acoustical engineer in critical
sound applications.
For maximum isolation effect, isolate water lines and
electrical conduit.Wall sleeves and rubber isolated piping
hangers can be used to reduce the sound transmitted
through water piping.To reduce the sound transmitted
through electrical conduit, use flexible electrical conduit.
State and local codes on sound emissions should always
be considered. Since the environment in which a sound
source is located affects sound pressure, unit placement
must be carefully evaluated. Sound power levels for
Stealth chillers are available on request.
Unit Isolation and Leveling
For additional reduction of sound and vibration, install the
optional elastomeric isolators.
Construct an isolated concrete pad for the unit or provide
concrete footings at the 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-in (6 mm) over the entire length
and width. Use shims as necessary to level the unit.
Elastomeric Isolators
(Optional for units without seismic rating)
Note: See unit submittal, or Table 11, p. 21 thru Table 13,
p. 23 for point weights, isolator location and
isolator selections.
1. 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.
2. Align the mounting holes in the base of the unit with
the threaded positioning pins on the top of the
isolators.
3. Lower the unit onto the isolators and secure the
isolator to the unit with a nut.
4. Level the unit carefully. Fully tighten the isolator
mounting bolts.

Proper Water Treatment!
The use of untreated or improperly treated water could
result in scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae or slime. It is
recommended that the services of a qualified water
treatment specialist be engaged to determine what
water treatment, if any, is required. Trane assumes no
responsibility for equipment failures which result from
untreated or improperly treated water, or saline or
brackish water.

Components and layout will vary slightly, depending on
the location of connections and the water source.
A vent is provided on the top of the evaporator at the
chilled water inlet. 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.
Provide shutoff valves in lines to the gauges to isolate
NOTICE:
Evaporator Damage!
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 microscopic and macroscopic
fractures on the cast iron waterboxes that can lead to
premature failure of the waterbox. To prevent damage
to chilled water components, do not allow evaporator
pressure (maximum working pressure) to exceed 150
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

Pressure Gauges
Install field-supplied pressure components as shown in
Figure 17, p. 25. 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.

Pressure Relief Valves
NOTICE:
Evaporator Damage!
To prevent shell damage, install pressure relief valves in
the evaporator water system.
Install a water pressure relief valve in the evaporator inlet
piping between the evaporator and the inlet shutoff valve,
as shown in Figure 17, p. 25. 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.
Evaporator Flow Switch
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
Flow switch is on a 24V circuit. Do NOT apply 120V to
the flow switch. Incorrect voltage application could
cause damage to the flow switch.
The flow switch is factory-installed and programmed
based on the operating conditions submitted with the
order.The leaving evaporator temperature, fluid type and
fluid concentration affect the selected flow switch. If the
operating conditions on the job site change, the flow
switch may need to be replaced. Contact your localTrane
Sales office for more information.
The sensor head includes 3 LEDs, two yellow and one
green.Wait 15 seconds after poweris applied to the sensor
before evaluating LEDs for flow status. When wired
correctly and flow is established, only the green LED
should be lit. Following are the LED indicators:
•Green ON, both yellow OFF — Flow
•Green and outside yellow ON — No Flow
•Center yellow ON continuously — Miswire
Factory installed jumper wire W11 must be removed if
using auxiliary contacts and/or additional proof of flow.
See schematics in RTAE-SVE01*-EN for more details.
Indexing Flow Switch
To properly index the flow switch, the following
requirements must be met:
•The dot must be at a position no greater than 90° off
Index.
•The torque must be between 22 ft-lb minimum and 74
ft-lb maximum.
•A minimum distance of 5x pipe diameter must be
maintained between flow switch and any bends,
valves, changes in cross sections, etc.

temperature Notes
• Heaters alone will provide low ambient protection down to -20°F (-29°C), but will NOT
protect the evaporator from freezing as a result of charge migration. Therefore, it is
required that water pump control be used in conjunction with heaters.
• Heaters are factory-installed on the evaporator and water piping and will protect them from freezing
• 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.
• Tracer™ UC800 controller can start the pump when freezing conditions are detected. For this option
the pump must to be controlled by the Stealth unit and this function must be validated.
• Water circuit valves need to stay open at all times.
• Water pump control and heater combination will protect the evaporator down to any

ambient temperature provided power is available to the pump and the controller. This
option will NOT protect the evaporator in the event of a power failure to the chiller unless
backup power is supplied to the necessary components.
• When no chiller operation is possible and the pump is already off, UC800 pump control for freeze
protection will command the pump to turn:
ON if average of the evaporator entering water temperature, the evaporator leaving water
temperature, and the evaporator refrigerant pool temperature is less than Low Evaporator Refrigerant
Temperature Cutout (LERTC) + 4°F for a period of time.
OFF again if the evaporator refrigerant pool temperature rises above the LERTC + 6°F for a period
of time.
Note: Time period referenced for ON and Off conditions above is dependent on past running conditions
and present temperatures measured.
ON if entering OR leaving water temperature< LWTC for 30°F-sec (17°C-sec)
OFF again if water temperature > LWTC for 30 min
• Freeze protection can be accomplished by adding sufficient glycol to protect against freezing below
the lowest ambient expected.
• Use of glycol type antifreeze reduces the cooling capacity of the unit and must be
considered in the design of the system specifications.
• Shut off the power supply to the unit and to all heaters.
• Purge the water circuit.
• Blow out the evaporator to ensure no liquid is left in the evaporator.
Installation Mechanical
NOTICE:
Evaporator Damage!
If insufficient concentration or no glycol is used, the
evaporator water flow must be controlled by the UC800
AND heaters must be used to avoid catastrophic
damage to the evaporator due to freezing. It is the
responsibility of the installing contractor and/or the
customer to ensure that a pump will start when called
upon by the chiller controls. Refer to RLC-PRB012-EN.
Even with water pump control, a power loss of as little
as 15 minutes under freezing conditions can damage
the evaporator. Only the proper addition of freeze
inhibitor or complete drainage of the water circuit can
ensure no evaporator damage in the event of a power
failure.
