    Photographic evidence must be provided for macroscopic damage. The card must be sent to Trane within 8 days of receiving the goods: if it is not sent back or delayed, the complaint will not be accepted.

  • Page 5 Precautions against risks due to the refrigerant Safety data R410a Toxicity Not important Splashes or sprinkles can cause chill burns. The risk of absorptions through the skin is not relevant. Those refrigerants could take some lightly irritating effects and in liquid stage they have a strong skinning effect.
  • Page 6 • if the unit is to be moved after a year of being in the site or if it has to be dismantled contact Trane. Manual alarm reset If there is an alarm, the unit must not be manually reset before having located and eliminated the cause of the fault.
  • Page 7: Warranty

    C. The warranty is valid if all the installation and start-up instructions have been adhered to (both those which may have come from Trane and those coming from current practice), if the “1st start up form” has been filled in and sent to the Trane after sales department.

    Installation Handling and lifting Units have been designed to be lifted from above by means of eyebolts and holes in the base members. Use retractor bars to keep the lifting wires or chains away from the unit. Lifting procedures provided with the unit have to be respected. CAUTION! Do not use forklift trucks to lift the unit from below.
  • Page 9 Use the following formula to check: % voltage unbalance = Max voltage deviation from average *100 Average voltage Important! If the mains voltage has an unbalance of above 3%, contact the company, which distributes the electrical energy. If the unit functions with a unit voltage unbalance between the phases of above 3% the guarantee is invalid.

    percentage not more than 20% of the total load of the network. In any case, the harmonic distortion introduced by the unit must be determined by reference to the specific application. After a detailed analysis of the entire network of power and loads supplied.

  • Page 12 Table 2.a: Cooling capacity of the correction factors in function of the condensing temperature. Using table 1 and the suggested correction factors it is possible to choose the proper diameter in accordance to the requested cooling capacity and the evaluated pressure drops. Once the choice is taken a check shall be made by calculating the real pressure drop using the following formula.
  • Page 13 The above value represents the cooling capacity for a line with Δext=28mm, at Tas=5°C e Tc=50°C and with a corresponding pressure drop equal to 0,016 K/m.Since this capacity is lower than the cooling capacity supplied by the unit (30 kW), the pipe diameter will be undersized. The Δext=35 mm will then be chosen. In order to verify if the choice is correct, the total pressure drop must be calculated again by using the formula [2].
  • Page 14 Table 4: Minimum capacity (kW) ensuring the oil flowing in vertical sections of the discharge line (R410a). In this case also, the cooling capacity shown in table 4 refers to a saturated evaporating temperature equal to -5°C: for different temperature values the capacity the capacities must be adjusted according to the following factors: Table 4.a: Correction factors for different suction temperature It might be guessed that in order to guarantee the proper speed ensuring the correct oil flow, if the compressor is working at partial loads, the diameter shall be reduced, therefore a too much high speed is obtained when the compressor...
  • Page 15 On the discharge line, there is the same problem due to the oil flow on the suction line. The solution to the problem is the same. In this case, the most important issue could be the oil drop towards the compressor. This issue can be solved using check valves and making oil taps if the condenser is mounted at a higher level than the compressor.

    Since this type of components may cause significant pressure drops, their use must be carefully eveluated. • Supports shall be installed to support the pipes weight and shall be spaced according to the following prescriptions: • Curves and joints cause pressure drops. Large-radius curves are strongly recommended; in case of barriers to overcome 45°...

  • Page 20 Different sizes of liquid receivers are available as options according to specific needs of the plant. The installation of the liquid receiver is a designer’s responsibility. In case of maintenance the liquid receiver may be used to stock the entire refrigerant volume of the plant. As mentioned in the previous paragraph, the liquid receiver location for ZHM versions shall be evaluated in accordance to the refrigerant charge delta of the two cycles.

    Unit operation Oil compressor load Checking the oil charge All Trane units compressors are charged with oil at the factory. The scroll compressors are equipped with an oil sight glass from which you can control the level. The precise level should be between two marks that indicate the minimum and maximum allowable levels.
  • Page 23: Start-Up Preliminary Procedures

    Refrigerant seals control Trane units are sent 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 (vapors) into it until pressure is reached and look for leakage.
  • Page 24: Refrigerant Charge

    Refrigerant charge Charge with unit stopped and in vacuum (refrigerant charge in the liquid phase) Completely open the valve for it to close the service connection. Connect the refrigerant cylinder to the service connection without tight- ening the connection. Half close the liquid shut off valve. If the circuit has been dehydrated and vacuum, load liquid with the cylinder upside down.
  • Page 26: Start Up

    Start up Preliminary checks Before starting the appliance is very important verify that you have correctly performed all the operations described in the section "PREPARATION OF STARTING." Also check that all mechanical and electrical equipment are tightened properly. WARNING! particular should be paid to the fundamental components (compressor, heat exchangers, fans, electric motors, pumps…) are detected in the case fixing screws loose, proceed to their tightness before start.
