    Electrical connections Electrical power supply The mains power supply characteristics have to match the unit’s absorption. The mains power supply tension must correspond to the nominal value ± 10%, with a maximum difference between the phases of 3%. Power connections Protect the unit electric box power supply circuit with protection devices (not included in the supplied equipment) Connect the line terminals with a three-core cable of a section, which is appropriate to the machine absorption.
  • Page 10 One flow switch The above-mentioned installation indications represent necessary conditions for the guarantee to be valid. Trane is at your disposal to examine any different requirements, which have to be approved before starting up the chiller. It is necessary that the water flow rate to the unit is compatible with the evaporator one. It is also necessary that the water flow rate is kept uniform while the unit is running: it is suggested to use always a pump system dedicated to the unit and independent from the remaining part of the plant.

    Refrigerant seals control Trane units shipped with the complete charge of refrigerant and are at a sufficient pressure to check the seal after installing. If the system were not under pressure, blow refrigerants (vapour) into it until pressure is reached and look for leakage.
  • Page 19 Refrigerant charge Charge with unit stopped and in vacuum (refrigerant charge in the liquid phase) Open the shut off valve as far as possible so that it closes the service coupling. Connect the refrigerant cylinder to the service coupling without tightening the coupling. Half close the liquid shut off valve. If the circuit has been dehydrated and is in vacuum, charge the liquid by turning the cylinder upside down.

    Follow the above mentioned procedure every time the plant is stopped long enough for the water temperature contained in it to rise. Control of the oil charge All units Trane have compressors loaded with oil at the factory. The scroll compressors are equipped with an oil sight glass and from which can check the level.

    Every Trane unit comes with a logbook, in which the user or the person delegated to machine maintenance can keep all the required notes, in order to keep a historical log of the Trane unit. A lack of notes in the logbook could be considered proof of careless maintenance.
