telephone or in person, but any such request should be
confirmed in writing. It is recommended that the customer
request that the carrier inspect the damage within 72 hours
of notification.
The customer must store the heat pump system in a dry,
non-corrosive, dust- and vibration-free environment due to
the exposure sensitivities of the microprocessor controllers
and to prevent electrical terminations from deteriorating
from non-use. Conditions in storage locations should not
fall below -20 °F (-29 °C) or exceed 150 °F (66 °C).
Components sealed in plastic shrink-wrap are not exempt
from these storage requirement. Moisture can potentially
collect inside the plastic film, resulting in corrosion of the
cabinet and electronic components. Any heat pump system
packaging that is removed must be replaced with similar
protective covering as soon as possible.
Failure to adhere to these long-term storage requirements
may void the Trane warranty. Any component that is
damaged or inoperable due to improper storage may have
its warranty voided.
Handling of the Modules
The packaging from the factory permits lifting with a
suitable crane. Ensure straps are in good working condition
and that they are rated for the weight of the machines.
Spreader bars may be required for effective rigging and to
avoid damage to the heat pump modules.
The heat pump modules arrive fully charged with
refrigerant. As required under Federal regulations,
installation, start-up and service should be performed by
fully-qualified, factory-certified, personnel.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
Failure to follow code could result in death or serious
injury.
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified
personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field
wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To
avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements
for field wiring installation and grounding as
described in NEC and your local/state/national
electrical codes.

WARNING
Electrical Shock, Explosion, or Arc
Flash Hazard!
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
death or serious injury.
•
Install the product in an appropriate electrical/
fire enclosure per local regulations. Do not
install the product in hazardous or classified
locations.
•
Do not use the product for life or safety
applications.
•
Do not exceed the product ratings or maximum
limits. Products rated only for basic insulation
must be installed on insulated conductors.
•
Current transformer secondaries (current mode)
must be shorted or connected to a burden at all
times.
•
Remove all wire scraps, tools, replace all doors,
covers and protective devices before powering
the equipment.
Site Preparation and Clearances
Heat pump modules must be installed on a level surface
that has been checked by a qualified structural engineer to
support the weight of the fluid-filled modules and the
connective piping to and from the heat pump. Installations
must account for minimum service access clearances as
may be practical or required by local building codes.
Heat Pump Clearances
One of the most critical factors affecting the performance of
air-to-water heat pump is air flow above and around the
heat pump modules. Walls, roofs, overhangs, and nearby
mechanical heat sources can all degrade heat pump
performance. The further heat pump is from such
obstacles, the more efficiently it will operate.
Minimum Clearances
The unit must maintain clearance on all sides to provide for
adequate ambient air circulation. See
The air coils are designed for outdoor installation and must
be mounted level on a roof or concrete slab that is strong
enough to support the total equipment operating weight.
Consult a professional structural engineer to determine
safe mounting loads.
Unrestricted airflow must be provided to air coils. Avoid air
recirculation from other nearby equipment. Locate the air
coils away from building air vents and heat sources such as
exhaust fans.
The unit should be located far enough away from any wall
or other obstruction to provide adequate clearance for
ambient air intake and discharge:
