Condenser Piping
Components
Piping components include all
devices and controls used to
provide proper water-system
operation and unit operating
safety. These components and
their general locations are given
below.
Entering condenser-water piping
• Air vents (to bleed air from
system)
• Water pressure gauges
manifolded with shutoff valves
• Pipe unions
• Vibration eliminators (rubber
boots)
• Shutoff (isolation) valves, one
per pass
• Thermometers
• Cleanout tees
• Pipe strainer
Leaving condenser-water piping
• Air vents (to bleed air from
system)
• Water pressure gauges with
manifolded shutoff valves
• Pipe unions
• Vibration eliminators (rubber
boots)
• Shutoff (isolation) valves, one
per pass
• Thermometers
• Cleanout tees
• Balancing valve
• Pressure relief valve
• Flow switch
CAUTION
Condenser damage!
To prevent condenser damage,
do not exceed 150 psig (1035
kPa) water pressure for
standard water boxes. The
maximum pressure for high-
pressure water boxes is 300 psig
(2100 kPa).
To prevent tube damage, install
a strainer in the condenser
water inlet piping.
To prevent tube corrosion,
ensure that the initial water fill
has a balanced pH.
Water Treatment
CAUTION
Water Treatment!
Do not use untreated or
improperly treated water. Use of
untreated or improperly treated
water may result in equipment
damage.
Using untreated or improperly
treated water in these units may
result in inefficient operation
and possible tube damage.
Consult a qualified water-
treatment specialist to
determine whether treatment is
needed. The following
disclamatory label is provided
on each CVGF unit:
The use of improperly treated or
untreated water in this
equipment may result in scaling,
erosion, corrosion, algae, or
slime. The services of a qualified
water-treatment specialist
should be engaged to determine
what treatment, if any, is
advisable. The Trane Company
warranty specifically excludes
liability for corrosion, erosion, or
deterioration of Trane
equipment. Trane assumes no
responsibility for the results of
the use of untreated, improperly
treated, saline, or brackish
water.
