Installation Mechanical
Storage
If the chiller is to be stored more than one month prior to installation, observe
the following precautions:
• Do not remove the protective coverings from the electrical panel.
• Store the chiller in a dry, vibration-free, secure area.
• At least every three months, attach a gauge and manually check the pres-
sure in the refrigerant circuit. If the refrigerant pressure is below 71 psig
at 70
o
F (or 46 psig at 50
o
F), call a qualified service organization and the
appropriate Trane sales office.
NOTE: Pressure will be approximately 20 psig if shipped with the optional
nitrogen charge.
Location Requirements
Noise Considerations
• Refer to Trane Engineering Bulletin -Series R
Chiller Sound Ratings and
Installation Guide.
for sound consideration applications.
• Locate the unit away from sound-sensitive areas.
• Install the isolation pads under the unit. Refer to “Unit Isolation.”
• Install rubber vibration isolators in all water piping.
• Use flexible electrical conduit for final connection to the CH530.
• Seal all wall penetrations.
NOTE: Consult an acoustical engineer for critical applications.
Foundation
Provide rigid, non-warping mounting pads or a concrete foundation of suffi-
cient strength and mass to support the chiller operating weight (including
completed piping and full operating charges of refrigerant, oil and water).
Refer to Table 7 for unit operating weights.
Once in place, level the chiller within 1/4” (6.35 mm) over its length and
width.
The Trane Company is not responsible for equipment problems resulting from
an improperly designed or constructed foundation.
Vibration Eliminators
• Provide rubber boot type isolators for all water piping at the unit.
• Provide flexible conduit for electrical connections to the unit.
• Isolate all pipe hangers and be sure they are not supported by main struc-
ture beams that could introduce vibration into occupied spaces.
• Make sure that the piping does not put additional stress on the unit.
NOTE: Do not use metal braided type eliminators on the water piping.
Metal braided eliminators are not effective at the frequencies at which the
unit will operate.
