  • Page 6 Features and Benefi ts Tracer AdaptiView Control Operator Interface Tracer AdaptiView control is the unit-mounted operator interface with a touch sensitive 12/1" display. The display presents information through an intuitive navigation system. Alternate languages are also available for the control panel display. Tracer AdaptiView control receives information from and communicates information to the other devices on the chiller’s communications link.
  • Page 7 The portable PC-based service-tool software, Tracer TU™, supports service and maintenance tasks. Tracer TU serves as a common interface to all Trane chillers, and will customize itself based on the properties of the chiller with which it is communicating. Thus, the service technician learns only one service interface.

  • Page 9 Tracer Summit building automation system. But the benefi ts do not stop at the chiller plant. At Trane, we realize that all energy used in your cooling system is important. That is why we worked closely with other equipment manufacturers to predict the energy required by the entire system.
  • Page 10 This results in a better balance of forces at low loads and produces a machine with a wider unloading capability. In Trane centrifugal chillers, gas prerotation vanes ahead of the compression stage improve impeller aerodynamic effi ciency, resulting in smoother unloading and reducing power consumption.
  • Page 11: Application Considerations

    Condenser Water Limitations Temperature Trane centrifugal chillers start and operate over a range of load conditions with controlled water temperatures. Reducing the condenser water temperature is an effective method of lowering the chiller power input. However, the effect of lowering the condenser water temperature may cause an increase in system power consumption.
  • Page 12 The use of untreated or improperly treated water in a chiller may result in scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae, or slime. It is recommended that the services of a qualifi ed water treatment specialist are used to determine what treatment, if any, is advisable. Trane assumes no responsibility for the results of untreated or improperly treated water.

  • Page 15: Jobsite Connections

    Jobsite Connections Supply and Motor Lead Wiring and Connections Only copper conductors should be connected to the compressor motor due to the possibility of galvanic corrosion as a result of moisture if aluminum conductors are used. Copper conductors are recommended for supply leads in the starter panel. Suggested starter panel line- and load-side lug sizes (when lugs are provided) are noted in the starter submittals.

Some of the standard protection features of the chiller controller are described in this section. There are additional protection features not listed here. Contact your local Trane offi ce for additional protection information. High Condenser-Pressure Protection The chiller controller’s condenser limit keeps the condenser pressure under a specifi...
  • Page 19 Controls Standard Protections Oil-Temperature Protection Low oil temperature when the oil pump and/or compressor are running may be an indication of refrigerant diluting the oil. If the oil temperature is at or below the low oil-temperature setpoint, the compressor is shut down on a latching diagnostic and cannot be started. The diagnostic is reported at the user interface.
  • Page 20 Controls Standard Protections levels at which this may occur. It is diffi cult to defi ne an exact voltage sag or voltage level at which a particular motor will no longer consume power, but we are able to make some general statements concerning MPL protection: The chiller will remain running under the following conditions: •...
  • Page 21 Controls Standard Protections Short-Cycling Protection This function mimics heat dissipation from a motor start using two setpoints: Restart Inhibit Free Starts and Restart Inhibit Start-to-Start Timer. This allows the CVGF to inhibit too many starts in a defi ned amount of time while still allowing for fast restarts. The default for CVGF is 3 Free Starts and a 20 minute Start-to-Start Timer.
