Unit Description

Before shipment, each unit is leak-tested and run-tested for
proper control operation.
Components
A three-panel front access of the unit ventilator allows for
speedy set-up during field commissioning. This design allows
for the end pocket of the unit ventilator to be open while the fan
(airside) section stays closed. Access for piping and controls
is made through the unit ventilator's end pockets.
The drain pan is dual-sloped for effective condensate removal.
It is made from a non-corrosive material to help eliminate
issues associated to leaking or standing water. It may be easily
removed for cleaning. The drain pan connection size for all
Trane VUVE models is 7/8 in. OD.
Motors for the VUVE model do not include an external fan
bearing on the end of the fan shaft. This helps avoid issues
related to fan bearing maintenance (oiling is not needed), and/
or bearing replacement.
Filter sizing for the unit ventilator are an off-the-shelf design to
reduce or help eliminate local stocking of the filters. Options
include throwaway filters, MERV 8, and MERV 13 filters.

Convenient access to the fan motor and wheels for
maintenance and serviceability may be made through Trane's
easy-slide fan deck design.
Note: Ground wire must be reconnected if removed for
service of fan deck.
The outside air/return air damper is a one piece, linkage free
design resulting in a superior air-tight seal.
Control Options
Trane unit ventilators are available with a variety of control
options, including factory-mounted controls and customer-
supplied terminal interface (CSTI).
