Trane CVGF500 Installation, Operation & Maintenance Manual page 19

Refer to the Mechanical and Electrical sections of this manual for detailed instruc-
tions.
• Locate and maintain the loose parts such as, isolators, bulb wells, temperature sen-
• Install the unit on a foundation with lat support surfaces, level within 1/4" (6 mm)
• Install the unit per the instructions outlined in the Mechanical Installation section.
• Complete all water piping and electrical connections.
Note: Field piping must be arranged and supported to avoid stress on the equipment.
It is strongly recommended that the piping contractor provide at least 3 feet (914 mm)
of clearance between the preinstallation piping and the planned location of the unit.
This will allow for the proper fit upon arrival of the unit at the installation site. All nec-
essary piping adjustments can be made at that time.
• Where speciied, supply and install valves in the water piping, upstream and down-
• Supply and install low switches or equivalent devices in both the chilled-water pip-

• Supply and install taps for thermometers and a pressure gauge manifold in the wa-
• Supply and install drain valves on each water box.
• Supply and install vent cocks on each water box.
• Where speciied, supply and install strainers ahead of all pumps and automatic mod-
ulating valves.
• Supply and install refrigerant pressure-relief piping from the pressure-relief valve to
the atmosphere.
• If necessary, supply enough HFC-134a refrigerant (1 pound = .45 kg) and dry nitrogen
• Evacuate the unit to less than 500 microns (0.5 mm Hg) or according to local code.
• Charge with refrigerant 134a.
• Go over the pre-commissioning check sheet and ensure that all items have been
completed.
• Start the unit under the supervision of a qualiied service technician.
