When ordering replacement parts or requesting service, be sure to refer to the specific model number, serial number, and DL number (if applicable) stamped on the unit name- All Trane products are identified by a multiple-character plate. model number that precisely identifies a particular type of unit.
General Information (Continued) Direct-drive, vertical discharge condenser fans are provided with built-in current and overload protection. For “Shipwith” items, refer to the Unit Component “Layout” and “Shipwith” Locations illustration. If low ambient operation is required, low ambient dampers are available as a field or factory installed option. These units may be order with one of the following options: No System Controls (Field provided controls required) Supply Air Temperature Control (VAV applications)
Isolators should be installed to minimize the transmission of vibrations into the building. Refer to the [ ] Notify the appropriate Trane office before installing or re- “Unit Isolation” section for spring or rubber isolator installa- pairing a damaged unit.
