Installation Requirements
Dimension and Weights
Dimensions details, dimensions of hydraulic
connections, electrical connections, isolator positioning,
specifi c features for heat recovery and free cooling
are included in submittals and diagrams provided in
documentation package.
Center of Gravity
See instructions on lifting drawings available on request.
WARNING! Heavy Objects!
Ensure that all the lifting equipment used is properly
rated for weight of the unit being lifted. Each of the
cables (chains or slings), hooks, and shackles used to lift
the unit must be capable of supporting the entire weight
of unit. Lifting cables (chains or slings) may not be the
same length. Adjust as necessary for even unit lift. Other
lifting arrangements could cause equipment or property
damage. Failure to follow instructions above or properly
lift unit could result in unit dropping and possibly
crushing operator/technician which could result in death
or serious injury.
WARNING! Improper Unit Lift!
Test lift unit approximately 10 cm to verify proper center
of gravity lift point. To avoid dropping of unit, reposition
lifting point if unit is not level. Failure to properly lift
unit could result in unit dropping and possibly crushing
operator/technician which could result in death or
serious injury and possible equipment or property- only
damage.
Clearances
When installing the unit, provide enough space around
the unit to allow the installation and maintenance
personnel unrestricted access to all service points.
Unobstructed fl ow of condenser air is essential to
maintain chiller capacity and operating effi ciency. When
determining unit placement, give careful consideration
to ensuring a suffi cient air fl ow across the condenser
coils heat-transfer surface.
Notes:
1. Area above unit required for operation, maintenance,
panel access and airfl ow: NO OBSTRUCTIONS ABOVE
UNIT
2. For installations with obstructions or multiple units,
refer to Trane offi ce for Close Spacing and Restricted
Airfl ow advices.
3. Minimum clearance of 1990 mm on the side of the
unit is required for coil replacement. If suffi cient
clearance is not available on the side of the unit, coil
replacement should be performed through top of unit.
4. Enough clearance is required in front of the control
panels. Must be measured from front of panel, not end
of unit base.
5. Clearances should be suffi cient for tube pull out of
evaporator (2.5 m in the evaporator water box side of
the unit for 2 compressors units and 4.5 m for 3 and
4 compressors units)
6. Refer to submittal drawings for complementary
information.
Unit Isolation and Leveling
Provide a foundation with suffi cient strength and mass
to support the unit operating weight (that is, including
completed piping, full operating charges of refrigerant
and oil, and water). Refer to unit operating weights.
The unit must be leveled within 5 mm over its length
and width. Use shims as necessary to level the unit. For
additional reduction of sound and vibration, install the
optional elastomeric isolators.
Sound consideration
The most effective form of acoustical isolation is to
locate the unit away from any sound sensitive area.
Structurally transmitted sound can be reduced by
elastomeric vibration eliminators. Spring isolators are
not recommended. Consult an acoustical engineer in
critical sound applications.
For maximum isolation effect, isolate water lines and
electrical conduit. Rubber isolated piping hangers can
be used to reduce the sound transmitted through water
piping. To reduce sound transmitted through electrical
conduit, use fl exible electrical conduit.
EU and Local Regulations codes on sound emissions
should always be considered. Since the environment
in which a sound source is located affects the sound
pressure, unit placement must be carefully evaluated.
