Trane or Rockwell office. Cabinet Voltage Levels Typical Configurations The Trane-supplied Medium Voltage VFDB drives include WARNING two parts: input starter and drive panel. The drive panel is available in two air-cooled versions, called Frames: Hazardous Voltage! 1) 6000T A-Frame, and 2) 6000T B-Frame.
Follow proper lockout/ tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives or other energy storing components provided by Trane or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of capacitors.
Note: For questions regarding these procedures, contact MUST follow precautions in this manual and on the your local Trane or Rockwell office. tags, stickers, and labels, as well as the following • Wear the PPE that is necessary to protect from the instructions: Unless specified otherwise, disconnect all shock and arc flash hazards.
Parts Ordering Information Refer to the model number printed on the Trane Adaptive Frequency Drive nameplate when ordering replacement parts or service for the drive. When ordering parts, contact the local Trane Parts Office in your area. For service, contact a qualified service organization.
