Visible damage must be noted on the signed and dated bill
of lading. The customer may request a carrier inspection by
telephone or in person, but any such request should be
confirmed in writing. It is recommended that the customer
request that the carrier inspect the damage within 72 hours
of notification.
The customer must store the heat pump system in a dry,
non-corrosive, dust- and vibration-free environment due to
the exposure sensitivities of the microprocessor controllers
and to prevent electrical terminations from deteriorating
from non-use. Conditions in storage locations should not
fall below -20°F (-29°C) or exceed 150°F (66°C).
Components sealed in plastic shrink-wrap are not exempt
from these storage requirements. Moisture can potentially
collect inside the plastic film, resulting in corrosion of the
cabinet and electronic components. Any heat pump system
packaging that is removed must be replaced with similar
protective covering as soon as possible.
Failure to adhere to these long-term storage requirements
may void the Trane warranty. Any component that is
damaged or inoperable due to improper storage may have
its warranty voided.

Handling of the Modules

The packaging from the factory permits lifting with a
suitable crane. Confirm straps are in good working
condition and that they are rated for the weight of the
machines. Spreader bars may be required for effective
rigging and to avoid damage to the heat pump modules.
The heat pump modules arrive fully charged with
refrigerant. As required under Federal regulations,
installation, start-up, and service should be performed by
fully-qualified, factory-certified personnel.
Note: Damage from improper handling will not be covered
by warranty.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
Failure to follow code could result in death or serious
injury.
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified
personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field
wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To
avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements
for field wiring installation and grounding as
described in NEC and your local/state/national
electrical codes.

WARNING
Electrical Shock, Explosion, or Arc
Flash Hazard!
Failure to follow these instructions could result in
death or serious injury.
Install the product in an appropriate electrical/
fire enclosure per local regulations. Do not
install the product in hazardous or classified
locations.
Do not use the product for life or safety
applications.
Do not exceed the product ratings or maximum
limits. Products rated only for basic insulation
must be installed on insulated conductors.
Current transformer secondaries (current mode)
must be shorted or connected to a burden at all
times.
Remove all wire scraps, tools, replace all doors,
covers and protective devices before powering
the equipment.
Rigging, Lifting, and Moving the
Heat Pump
The air-to-water modular heat pump can be delivered to the
customer's site as individual modules. Limitations on the
methods and materials that can be used to rig, lift, or move
a heat pump system or an individual module include:
Maintain the module in an upright position at all times.
Certain configurations of modules can be top-heavy.
Move modules slowly with consideration for each
module's center-of-gravity.
Rig, lift, and move by strapping and lifting using a
properly configured floor jack or fork lift or by overhead
means.
Position lifting beams or spreader beams to prevent
lifting straps from rubbing or contacting module side
panels or electrical boxes. Attach rigging bar on each
end of module where 1 3/8-inch holes are provided.
Do not use cables, chains, or any other type of
metalized strapping to lift a module.
Do not push a heat pump module while directly in
contact with the floor using manual or mechanical
means.
