CAUTION
Proper Water Treatment!
The use of untreated or improperly
treated water in a unit may 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
improperly treated water, or saline or
brackish water.
If using an acidic
flushing solution, construct
temporary bypass around
unit to prevent damage to internal
components of the evaporator.
Dirt, scale, products of corrosion and
other foreign material will adversely
affect heat transfer between the water
and system components.
matter in the chilled water system
can also increase pressure drop and,
consequently, reduce water flow. Proper
water treatment must be determined

NOTE: Once the unit is installed at a site, one vertical or one diagonal unit support can be permanently removed if it creates an obstruction for water piping.
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.

Water Pressure Gauges
Install field-supplied
components as shown in Figure 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
endwater connections.
