The TT/TG Centrifugal series of compressors is a group of compressors that covers the
nominal capacity range from 90 to 200 Tons (TT) and 70 to 150 Tons (TG) tons.
The TT/TG series of compressors are an oil free centrifugal design based on magnetic
bearing technology.

Nomenclature
The TT series compressors are totally oil-free and optimized for use with refrigerant R134a.
The TG series compressor is for use with R1234ze(E) refrigerant only.
ASHRAE standard 34 has classied this refrigerant as “R1234ze(E) with safety classication of
A2L”. ASHRAE Standard 34, 2010 Addendum 1 contains the change to the standard.
ASHRAE Standard 15 (Safety Standard) has sent out an initial public review document
outlining proposed changes to this standard to address 2L refrigerants.

2.2.1 TG Series
NOTE
Do not use recycled refrigerant as it may contain oil, which can aect system reliability. The refrigerant should be pure
and stored in virgin containers.

NOTE
To ensure a reliable chiller system, all system components, most notably expansion valves, solenoid valves, and sensors, be
appropriate for application in oil free systems as determined by the component manufacturer. In addition, all chiller system
components exposed to refrigerant should be approved by their manufacturer for use with that refrigerant.
