Warnings, Cautions and Notices.
Note that warnings,
cautions and notices appear at appropriate intervals
throughout this manual. Warnings are provide to alert
installing contractors to potential hazards that could result
in death or personal injury. Cautions are designed to alert
personnel to hazardous situations that could result in
personal injury, while notices indicate a situation that
could result in equipment or property-damage-only
accidents.
Your personal safety and the proper operation of this
machine depend upon the strict observance of these
precautions.
Read this manual thoroughly before operating or servicing
this unit.
Important
Environmental Concerns!
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made
chemicals can affect the earths naturally occurring
stratospheric ozone layer when released to the
atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified
chemicals that may affect the ozone layer are refrigerants
that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (CFCs) and
those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and
Carbon (HCFCs). Not all refrigerants containing these
compounds have the same potential impact to the
environment. Trane advocates the responsible handling of
all refrigerants-including industry replacements for CFCs
such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Responsible Refrigerant Practices!
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are
important to the environment, our customers, and the air
conditioning industry. All technicians who handle
refrigerants must be certified. The Federal Clean Air Act
(Section 608) sets forth the requirements for handling,
reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain
refrigerants and the equipment that is used in these
service procedures. In addition, some states or
municipalities may have additional requirements that
must also be adhered to for responsible management of
refrigerants. Know the applicable laws and follow them.
ATTENTION:
Warnings, Cautions and Notices appear at
appropriate sections throughout this literature. Read
these carefully:
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION
sIndicates a potentially hazardous
situation which, if not avoided, could
result in minor or moderate injury. It
could also be used to alert against
unsafe practices.
NOTICE:
Indicates a situation that could result in
equipment or property-damage only
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified
personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field
wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To
avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for
field wiring installation and grounding as described in
NEC and your local/state electrical codes. Failure to
follow code could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
Required!
Installing/servicing this unit could result in exposure to
electrical, mechanical and chemical hazards.
Before installing/servicing this unit, technicians
MUST put on all Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
recommended for the work being undertaken.
ALWAYS refer to appropriate MSDS sheets and OSHA
guidelines for proper PPE.
When working with or around hazardous chemicals,
ALWAYS refer to the appropriate MSDS sheets and
OSHA guidelines for information on allowable
personal exposure levels, proper respiratory
protection and handling recommendations.
If there is a risk of arc or flash, technicians MUST put
on all Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in
accordance with NFPA 70E or other country-specific
requirements for arc flash protection, PRIOR to
servicing the unit.
Failure to follow recommendations could result in death
or serious injury.
Warnings, Cautions and Notices
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 3
Ultraviolet (UV) Germicidal Irradiation Lights!
The United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
believes that molds and bacteria inside buildings have the
potential to cause health problems in sensitive
individuals. If specified, Trane provides ultraviolet lights
(UV-C) as a factory-engineered and installed option in
select commercial air handling products for the purpose of
reducing microbiological growth (mold and bacteria)
within the equipment. When factory provided, polymer
materials that are susceptible to deterioration by the UV-C
light will be substituted or shielded from direct exposure
to the light. In addition, UV-C radiation can damage human
tissue, namely eyes and skin. To reduce the potential for
inadvertent exposure to the lights by operating and
maintenance personnel, electrical interlocks that
automatically disconnect power to the lights are provided
at all unit entry points to equipment where lights are
located.
WARNING
Equipment Damage From Ultraviolet (UV)
Lights!
Trane does not recommend field installation of
ultraviolet lights in its air handling equipment for the
intended purpose of improving indoor air quality. High
intensity C-band ultraviolet light is known to severely
damage polymer (plastic) materials and poses a
personal safety risk to anyone exposed to the light
without proper personal protective equipment (could
cause damage to eyes and skin). Polymer materials
commonly found in HVAC equipment that may be
susceptible include insulation on electrical wiring, fan
belts, thermal insulation, various fasteners and
bushings. Degradation of these materials can result in
serious damage to the equipment.
Trane accepts no responsibility for the performance or
operation of our air handling equipment in which
ultraviolet devices were installed outside of the Trane
factory.

General Information
Operating Environment
The Performance Climate Changer™ air handler is a
central station air handler for indoor and outdoor
applications. When considering the placement of the air
handler, it is important to consider the operating
environment. The acceptable ambient temperature range
for unit operation is -40ºF to 140ºF (-40ºC to 60ºC).
For heating applications, a special motor may be required
to withstand the higher temperatures. Motors with Class B
insulation are acceptable for ambient temperatures up to
104º F, while motors with Class F insulation can withstand
ambient temperatures to +140º F (60º C).
Note: Units with UL approval have a maximum ambient
temperature requirement of 104ºF. The customer
should provide adequate freeze protection for the
coils. See “Routine Maintenance” on page 121 for
more information.
Unit Description
The Performance Climate Changer air handler is designed
for a variety of controlled-air applications. The basic unit
consists of a fan, heating and/or cooling coils, filters, and
dampers.
Trane air handlers ship as complete assemblies or in sub-
assemblies if shipping splits are required. Some assembly
is required when the unit ships in subassemblies.
A wide variety of components is available for Trane air
handlers, including numerous fan, coil, and filter options,
access sections, diffusers, discharge plenums, face-and-
bypass sections, UL-approved electric heat sections,
humidifiers, mixing boxes, moisture eliminator sections,
exhaust dampers, controls, blenders and airflow
monitoring stations.

Factory-Mounted Controls
Trane air handlers are available with a wide selection of
factory-mounted controls, including controllers, motor
starters, and variable frequency drives (VFD).
Most control components are mounted inside the unit.
Depending on the system configuration, this may include
damper actuators, dirty filter switches, averaging
temperature sensors, and low limit switches. VFDs,
starters, controllers, control transformers, static pressure
transducers, DC power supplies, and customer interface
relays will be in enclosures mounted on the inside of the
unit.
Small items that cannot be factory-mounted, such as
space temperature sensors, outside air temperature
sensors, and humidity sensors, will ship inside the control
enclosures, or packaged and shipped inside the fan or
mixing box section. Larger items are shipped inside the
fan section.
Note: All control valves ship directly to the “ship-to
address” from the vendor unless another address
is given on the Trane sales order.
All factory-mounted control systems (controls that are
factory-wired to a unit controller or termination strip)
ordered without starters or variable-frequency drives
(VFDs) are provided with 120 to 24 Vac control
transformers mounted and wired in the auxiliary control
panel. The customer must provide 120 Vac control power,
50/60 Hz, typically 3 amps for unit sizes 3 to 57 and 5 amps
for unit sizes 66 to 100. A dedicated 15-amp circuit is
recommended.
Factory-mounted control systems ordered with factory-
mounted starters or VFDs are supplied with line to 24 Vac
control transformers. No additional power wiring is
required.
Pre-Packaged Solutions for Controls
If the air handler has been selected using one of Trane’s
pre-packaged solutions options for controls, there are a
number of resources available to aid in commissioning
and start-up of the unit. These resources include
commissioning sheets, graphics and technical application
notes. The technical application notes include the control
sequencing, Trane Graphic Programming (TGP) and Rover
set-up files for the specific unit selected. These resources
are available through your local Trane sales office.
General Information

BAS-SVX19A-EN
Wiring
Entrances are generally provided for field-installation of
high and low voltage wiring through a pipe/nipple
connection in the unit depending on unit configuration
with or without factory-mounted controls. Before
installation, consider overall unit serviceability and
accessibility before mounting, running wires (power),
making penetrations, or mounting any components to the
cabinet.
Wiring to the air handler must be provided by the installer
and must comply with all national and local codes. The fan
motor nameplate includes a wiring diagram. If there are
any questions concerning the wiring of the motor, write
down the information on the motor nameplate and contact
your local Trane sales office.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding
Required!
All field wiring MUST be performed by qualified
personnel. Improperly installed and grounded field
wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To
avoid these hazards, you MUST follow requirements for
field wiring installation and grounding as described in
NEC and your local/state electrical codes. Failure to
follow code could result in death or serious injury.
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 9
Pre-Installation Requirements
Based on customer requirements, Trane air handlers can
ship as complete units or as individual sections to be field
assembled. Unit sizes 3-120 have an integral base frame
designed with the necessary number of lift points for safe
installation. Indoor air handlers sizes 3-30 are also shipped
with a shipping skid designed for forklift transport.
Unless otherwise specified, Performance indoor air
handlers ship in subassemblies if the total length of the
units exceeds 98 inches or if the total weight exceeds the
limits shown in Table 1. If either the maximum weight or
maximum length is exceeded, the unit will ship in multiple
pieces. See Table 2 for limits for outdoor air handlers.
Note: These limits are based on a four-point lift.
Receiving Checklist
Upon receipt of the air handler(s), a thorough inspection
should be performed to note any shipping damage that
may have occurred and that the shipment is complete. All
factory shipping protection should be removed
immediately to allow complete access for the inspection.
The shipping protection provided by the factory is for
transit protection only and should not be used as a jobsite
storage cover.
Note: Delivery cannot be refused. Trane is not
responsible for shipping damage.
Check all access doors to confirm that the latches and
hinges are not damaged.
Inspect the interior of each section for any internal
damage.
Note: Concealed damage must be reported within
15 days of receipt.
Inspect the coils for damage to the fin surface and/or
coil connections.
If the unit was ordered with factory-mounted controls,
locate all sensors.
Note: Items that cannot be factory-mounted should ship
inside the control enclosures or should be
packaged inside the fan or mixing box section.
Check all control devices attached to the unit exterior
and confirm that they are not damaged.
Manually rotate the fan wheel to ensure free
movement of the shaft, bearings, and drive.
Inspect the fan housing for any foreign objects.
If the unit is shipped in subassemblies, locate the
assembly hardware, which should be packaged and
shipped inside the fan or mixing box section.
Inspect and test all piping for possible shipping
damage. Nipples may be installed on coils at the
factory but should always be tightened and tested
before any connections are made. Rough handling
during shipping, in addition to other factors can cause
pipe connections to become loose.
Note: Trane will not be responsible for any leak at the field
connections. Coils have been factory pressure
tested before shipping.
Assembly Hardware
Trane air handlers ship with all necessary assembly
hardware and gasket material. This hardware is packaged
in either a clear plastic envelope or cardboard box and can
be found inside the fan, mixing box, or access section. If
there is not enough space inside the section, a crate or
pallet will be loaded onto the bed of the truck. Check the
Parts List on the Field Assembly drawing against the
contents of the crate. Do not proceed with unit assembly
until verification that all materials are present. Sometimes
it is necessary to use more than one section to ship
hardware. Please check all sections thoroughly before
contacting your local Trane sales engineer to report
missing hardware.
Resolving Shipping Damage
Trane air handlers ship freight-on-board (FOB), meaning
that the unit belongs to the customer the moment the
delivery truck leaves the factory. If damage has occurred to
the unit during shipment, follow these instructions:
Note: Trane is not responsible for shipping damage.
1. Make specific notation, describing the damage, on the
freight bill. Take photos of the damaged material if
possible.
2. Report all claims of shipping damage to the delivering
carrier immediately and coordinate carrier inspection
if necessary.
Note: Do not attempt to repair the unit without consulting
the delivering carrier.

must be stored for a period of time before installation must
be protected from the elements. A controlled indoor
environment is recommended for proper storage.
Outdoor air handlers require no special protection for
storage before installation. Keep the equipment in the
original container for protection and ease of handling.
Note: The warranty does not cover damage to the unit or
controls due to negligence during storage.
General Storage
The unit controller and all other electrical/electronic
components should be stored in conditions of
-20ºF to 120°F and 5 to 95 percent relative humidity, non-
condensing. Electrical components are not moisture-
tolerant. Factory protective coverings should be removed
prior to storage.
Long-Term Storage
For longer periods of storage, allow proper clearance
around the unit to perform periodic inspection and
maintenance of the equipment.
While the unit is in storage:
Every two weeks, rotate the fan and motor shaft 30
revolutions by hand. Check for free rotation.
Every six months, check fan shaft bearings and grease
lines. Add grease using a manual grease gun following
the lubrications recommendations in “Fan Bearing
Lubrication” on page 124.
Check the motor lubrication; remove and clean grease
plugs and check for the presence of moisture in the
grease. If moisture is present, remove the motor and
send it to an authorized repair shop for bearing
inspection/replacement. If no moisture if present, refer
to the motor manufacturers lubrication
recommendation for proper lubrication.
Outdoor Storage Considerations
Outdoor storage is not recommended for units that will be
installed indoors. However, when outdoor storage is
necessary, several things must be done to prevent
damage:
Note: Keep the equipment on the original wooden blocks/
skid for protection and ease of handling.
Select a well-drained area, preferably a concrete pad or
blacktop surface.
Place the unit on a dry surface or raised off the ground
to assure adequate air circulation beneath the unit and
to assure no portion of the unit will contact standing
water at any time.
Loosen the belt tension on the drive belts.
Cover the unit securely with a canvas tarp.
Do not stack units.
Do not pile other material on the unit.
Preparing the Unit Site
Ensure the installation site can support the total weight
of the unit (see “Unit Dimensions and Weights” on
page 12 for approximate section weights; refer to the
unit submittals for actual weights).
Allow sufficient space for adequate free air and
necessary service access (see “Service Clearances”
on page 12). Refer to submittals for specific
minimums.
Allow room for supply and return piping, ductwork,
electrical connections, and coil removal.
Ensure there is adequate height for condensate drain
requirements. See “Drain Pan Trapping” on page 86.
Note: If unit is installed in a mechanical room on a pad,
inadequate height may necessitate core-drilling
the floor to attain proper trap height. Insufficient
height could inhibit condensate drainage and
result in flooding the unit and/or equipment room.
NOTICE:
Corrosion!
Use only canvas tarps to cover air handlers. Plastic
tarps can cause condensation to form in and on the
equipment, which could result in corrosion damage or
wet storage stains.
Pre-Installation Requirements
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 11
Confirm the roof curb or foundation of the mounting
platform is level and large enough to accommodate
the unit. Refer to the unit submittals for specific
dimensions.
Provide adequate lighting for maintenance personnel
to perform maintenance duties.
Provide permanent power outlets in close proximity to
the unit for installation and maintenance.
Depending upon job requirements, the customer may
need to provide 120 Vac power to the unit controller.
Refer to submittals for more information. A dedicated
15-amp circuit is recommended.
Wiring for the air handler must be provided by the
installer and must comply with all national and local
electrical codes.
If the unit integral base frame ceiling suspension
provisions are not used, the installer/contractor must
provide a ceiling-suspended mounting frame
designed to support the length, width, and weight of
the entire air-handling unit. See “Ceiling Suspension”
on page 26 for more information.
Rooftop curb-mounted units must be sealed tightly to
the curb. Use proper sealants and roof-to-curb sealing
techniques to prevent water and air leakage. Refer to
CLCH-SVN05A-EN Roof Curbs for Performance
Climate Changer™ Air Handlers Installation
Instructions.
Note: Preparation of the roof curb or pier mount and roof
openings should be completed prior to lifting the
unit to the roof.
Roof Curb Installation Checklist
See CLCH-SVN05A-EN Roof Curbs for Performance
Climate Changer™ Air Handlers Installation Instructions
for information on installing roof curbs.
It is recommended that the curb be installed directly on the
support members and fastened to the supports using tack
welds or other equivalent methods. Properly supported
decking should be installed inside the air handler section
of the curb when this method is used. See Figure 2.
1. Verify that the roof structure can adequately support
the combined weight of the unit and curb assembly.
2. Ensure that the selected installation location provides
sufficient service and operational clearances.
3. Remove any twist within the curb due to roof supports
and square the curb.
4. Level the curb.
5. Secure the curb to the roof support members.
6. Install 2-inch thick boards or rigid insulation around the
curb.
7. Install cant strips around the curb.
8. Bring field supplied roofing felt up to the top of the curb
nailing strips. Nail felt into place.
9. Install field supplied flashing under the lip of the curb
flanges and over the felt.
10. Apply sealant to the four corners.
11. Caulk all joints between the curb and the roof.
Attach the gasket material to the curbs top flanges (entire
perimeter) and to the supply and return air duct opening
panel flanges.
NOTICE:
Microbial Growth!
The floor or foundation must be level and the
condensate drain at the proper height for proper coil
drainage and condensate flow. Standing water and wet
surfaces inside the equipment can become an
amplification site for microbial growth (mold), which
could cause odors and damage to the equipment and
building materials.

Replace plug panel if applicable.
Note: For outdoor air handlers, after isolator tie-down is
removed, remove the paper backing from the butyl
tape around plug panel perimeter prior to replacing
plug panel.
General Lifting Considerations
:
Before preparing the unit for lifting, estimate the
approximate center of gravity for lifting safety. Because of
placement of internal components, the unit weight may be
unevenly distributed, with more weight in the coil and fan
areas. Approximate unit weights are provided in “Unit
Dimensions and Weights” on page 12. Refer to the unit
submittals for actual section weights. Test the unit for
proper balance before lifting.
For outdoor air handlers, preparation of the roof curb or
pier mount and roof openings must be completed before
lifting to the roof. See CLCH-SVN04A-EN Roof Curbs for
Performance Climate Changer Air Handlers installation
instructions for details.
Always rig subassemblies or sections as they ship from
the factory. Never bolt sections together before rigging.
Make the loop of the sling parallel to the direction of
airflow, if possible.
When hoisting the unit into position, use the proper
rigging method, such as straps, slings, spreader bars,
or lifting lugs for protection and safety.
•Use all lifting lugs provided. See Figure 10 and Table 8
for lug hole sizes and location.
Figure 9. Plug panel plate
WARNING
Risk of Unit Dropping!
Always place, assemble, and suspend modules/
subassemblies one at a time. Placing, assembling, and/
or suspending more than one module/subassembly at
a time could result in module/subassemblies dropping
and crushing technicians which could result in death,
serious injury, or equipment damage.
WARNING
Improper Unit Lift!
Test lift unit approximately 24 inches 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.
Remove plug panel plate
Remove

NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
Keep skid in place until unit is ready to set. Do not
move the unit or subassembly without the skid in
place as shipped from the factory. Premature skid
removal could result in equipment damage.
WARNING
Heavy Objects!
Ensure that all the lifting equipment used is properly
rated for the 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 the unit. Lifting cables (chains or slings) may
not be of 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.
Installation - Mechanical
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 23
For unit sizes 3 to 120 with integral base frame, use
field-provided spreader bars and slings to rig units and
subassemblies as shown in Figure 11. The air handler
is not designed to be lifted or rigged from the top of the
unit.
For outdoor units, never stack the pipe cabinet or inlet
hood on the unit as it is being lifted.
Do not attach the intake/exhaust hood or pipe cabinet
to the unit prior to lifting the unit. Doing so may
damage the equipment. Attach the hoods to the unit
only after all sections are in place.
For outdoor air handlers, all shipping supports and
crating on the face of the sections must be removed to
permit proper fit-up and sealing of the surfaces.
Dispose of properly.

Forklifting Considerations
Note: Do not use a forklift on outdoor air handlers or
indoor air handlers/subassemblies larger than size
30.
For unit sizes 3-30, a forklift may be used to lift a single
section or small subassembly, provided the forks extend
under both ends of the base frame, or as indicated in
Figure 14. The forks should not contact the bottom of the
air handler. Units should only be lifted from the proper end
identified by the lifting label on the unit. A lifting crane or
other means should be used for larger units where forks
cannot extend under both base rails.
WARNING
Risk of Unit Dropping!
Always place, assemble, and suspend modules/subassemblies one at a time. Placing, assembling, and/or suspending
more than one module/subassembly at a time could result in module/subassemblies dropping and crushing
technicians which could result in death, serious injury, or equipment damage.

Unit Placement and Assembly
If the air handler ships in subassemblies or in individual
sections, some assembly is required, including:
Ceiling-suspended indoor unit assembly; see See
“Ceiling Suspension” on page 26.
Section-to-section assembly; see “Section-to-Section
Assembly” on page 27.
:
Unit Placement
If a unit arrives in sections, then each section must be
individually hoisted, set on the housekeeping pad, roof
curb, or pier mount and then assembled.
Refer to the unit submittals and unit tagging for correct
placement of all sections. If there are any discrepancies
between the submittals and the unit tagging, contact your
local Trane representative before proceeding.
Following the order of the sections on the unit submittals
and tagging, individually place each unassembled section
or subassembly in the appropriate installation location.
Note: Prior to placing fan section in the appropriate
installation location, verify shipping tie-downs
have been removed.
For outdoor units, the pipe cabinet must also be mounted
as an individual section. Refer to “Pipe Cabinet
Installation” on page 32 for specific instructions.
When mounting the unit on a roof curb, make sure the
gasketing between the roof curb and unit base provides an
airtight seal.
When mounting the unit on a pier mount, locate one pier
at each corner as a minimum, directly underneath any
shipping split (ensure full support under each side) and
then every four feet at equally spaced intervals around the
perimeter of the unit. Both the unit and the pipe cabinet
should be supported by their base around the entire
perimeter. See Figure 15 and Figure 16.
WARNING
Toxic Fumes!
Keep open flame away from unit exterior or interior. Do
not weld or use cutting torch on the exterior or interior
of the unit. The unit contains polyurethane insulation.
Flame could produce toxic gas which could result in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE:
Equipment Damage!
The internal sections of this unit containing electrical
components must not exceed 104o F operating
temperature. Internal sections of the unit which do not
contain electrical components must not exceed 200o F
temperature. Failure to comply with temperature
requirements could result in equipment damage.
WARNING
Risk of Unit Dropping!
Always place, assemble, and suspend modules/
subassemblies one at a time. Placing, assembling, and/
or suspending more than one module/subassembly at
a time could result in module/subassemblies dropping
and crushing technicians which could result in death,
serious injury, or equipment damage.
NOTICE:
Microbial Growth!
The floor or foundation must be level and the
condensate drain at the proper height for proper coil
drainage and condensate flow. Standing water and wet
surfaces inside the equipment can become an
amplification site for microbial growth (mold), which
could cause odors and damage to the equipment and
building materials.
Figure 15. Piers located in each corner and spaced evenly
every four feet
Note: Piers beneath shipping splits must be structurally
sound to support the weight of the unit.
Piers
Installation - Mechanical
26 CLCH-SVX07C-EN
For proper operation, the unit must be installed level (zero
tolerance) in both horizontal axes. For vertical discharge
units, allow space under the unit for supply air ductwork
connections.
Unit Assembly
Note: Air handlers often include optional factory-
provided casing penetration entry points for field-
provided wiring. Consider overall unit
serviceability and accessibility before mounting,
running wires (power), making cabinet
penetrations, or mounting any components to the
cabinet.
See “Component Installation Requirements” on page 45
for special assembly/installation considerations.
Removing the Shipping Skid
Remove the wooden shipping blocks, wooden toe cleat if
there is one, and end cleats prior to lowering unit into final
position or installing the unit to the roof curb.
Ceiling Suspension
Note: Ceiling suspension is not recommended for units
larger than size 57 unless using a field-provided
mounting frame.
Using a Field-Provided Mounting Frame
If a field-provided mounting frame is used for ceiling
suspension, the installer/contractor must provide a
ceiling-suspended mounting frame designed to support
the length, width, and weight of the entire air-handling
unit. See “Unit Dimensions and Weights” on page 12 for
approximate weights.
Note: It is the building engineers responsibility to size the
structural channels and to provide the appropriate
hangers.
Structural channels in a field-provided frame can be
mounted parallel to airflow or perpendicular to airflow:
For parallel-to-airflow channels, size channels based
on a four-point load distribution (see Figure 17.
For perpendicular-to-airflow channels, size channels
based on the load distribution of the individual
sections and install the channels so that both ends of
every section are supported (see Figure 18).
Figure 16. Side view with two shipping splits - locate
one pier directly under each shipping split
Note: Piers beneath shipping splits must be structurally
sound to support the weight of the unit.
WARNING
Risk of Unit Dropping!
Do not use mounting legs for ceiling suspension,
external isolation, or unit support during module
placement. Mounting legs are designed only to secure
the unit to the floor, housekeeping pad, or platform.
Improper use of the mounting legs as described above
could result in unit dropping and crushing technicians
which could result in death or serious injury, and
equipment damage.

CLCH-SVX07C-EN 27
Using Integral Base Frame
If using the factory-provided integral base frame for ceiling
suspension, individual sections and/or subassemblies will
have base frame shipping splits and base frame lifting
lugs. When using the base frame for ceiling suspension:
Suspend the unit (on both sides of the unit) at each
shipping split lug as well as the four corners of the unit
(see Figure 19). See Figure 10 and Table 8 on page 23
for lug hole sizes.
Bolt shipping splits together.
The hanger rods must extend through the bottom of the
base lug. It is the building engineer’s responsibility to
provide the appropriate hangers.
Shipping Gussets
Prior to pulling the shipping splits together, the shipping
gussets (see Figure 20) should be removed to simplify
panel removal (except for units required OSHPD
certification). If there is enough access after joining the
shipping splits, the gussets can be removed after they are
joined. The exception to this rule is for size 35-50 stacked
units. For these sizes, the gusset should be left in place for
the lower level unit unless they are installed in a shipping
split that contains a coil.
Do not mistake the coil structural gusset (see Figure 21)
used on unit sizes 66-120 with the shipping gussets.
Section-to-Section Assembly
Air handlers ship with all necessary assembly hardware
and gasket material. The hardware should be packaged in
either a clear plastic envelope or cardboard box inside the
fan section, access section, or mixing box.
The number of sections to be assembled often makes it
necessary to use more than one section to ship the
assembly material; therefore, check all sections
thoroughly before contacting your Trane sales
representative to report missing items.
Sections are joined with gasketing applied to one of the
mating surfaces and hardware to bolt the sections
together. The gasketing for section-to-section joints is a
closed cell foam with adhesive backing.
To assemble the unit:
1. Locate the mounting hardware and gasket material.
2. All shipping supports and crating on the face of the
sections must be removed and discarded to permit
proper fit-up and sealing of the surfaces. Remove any
shipping bolts located on the mounting surfaces of the
sections (see Figure 22).
3. Apply the gasketing to one of the mating surfaces; see
Figure 22, Figure 23, and Figure 24.

4. If the unit is equipped with factory-mounted controls,
move adjacent subassembly within six inches and
fasten quick connects where the sections bolt together
(see Figure 25).
Note: Reference the appropriate controller manual for
more details on the installation of units with
factory-mounted controls.
5. Use a bar clamp to pull adjacent shipping section lifting
lugs together.
6. For indoor units sizes 66-120 and for outdoor units size
10-120, a wedge block is provided to aid in pulling and
aligning the units together. Attach the wedge blocks to
both sides of the units being pulled together, matching
the correct wedge block with the correct hole pattern.
See Figure 29, p. 30.
7. Verify that the subassembly with the overhang profile
on the roof is higher than the mating subassembly. If it
is not, raise one end of the subassembly and bring the
unit together. See Figure 26.
8. Due to unlevel floor and platforms, the roof may be
misaligned as shown in Figure 26. A common solution

is to raise one end of the shipping section to clear the
hemming before pulling the units together. 9. In addition, an adjustment can also be made to the
height of the roof of either subassembly.
At the center
(width-wise) of the unit, measure the height of each
adjacent subassembly and verify that the
subassembly with the overlap sheet metal is higher
than the mating subassembly roof. If it is not, adjust
the height of either subassembly by loosening the
screws in the vertical channels or component
structure and adjust the height of the roof. See
Figure 27
and Figure 28).

14. Install the section-to-section screws inserting the
appropriate screws through the overlapping flanges
using a powered impact gun and taking care not to
strip the screws. Outdoor air handlers will ship with a
seam cap that is to be installed over the section-to-
section seams. Factory-supplied butyl tape must be
applied over the seam prior to seam cap being applied.
See Figure 30.
15. For outdoor air handlers, attach roof overhang angle
with number 10 screws. Join outdoor roof panels
together at the seams in the direction perpendicular to
airflow and secure them in place with 5/16-inch x 3/4-
inch bolts and 5/16 lock nuts. Install the roof joint strip
to cover the seam between two outdoor roof panels in
the perpendicular to airflow direction of. Use 3/8-inch
butyl tape to cover the seam between two outdoor roof
panels overhang at the side the unit. Bend joint strip
over roof panel and use two number 10 sheet metal
screws (one in each roof panel) to secure joint strip.
Trim the roof joint strip to insure that it does not
protrude more than 1/16-inch beyond outdoor roof
overhang (see Figure 31).

Indoor Dual-Path SDU/Winterizer
Assembly
A dual-path, Split Dehumidification Unit (SDU)/winterizer
air handler consists of two units that are stacked together
in a draw-thru arrangement that share one supply fan. The
unit on the first level (primary unit) is designed to handle
the return air and is larger than the unit on the second level
(secondary unit), which is designed to handle outside air.
Factory-designed unit support brackets are provided with
all factory-approved, dual-path SDUs or winterizer air
handlers.
A horizontal SDU/winterizer dual-path air handler
incorporates a horizontal supply fan on the first level
with a top opening in the primary unit that aligns with
a bottom opening in the secondary unit.
A vertical SDU/winterizer dual-path air handler
incorporates a vertical supply fan on the second level
with a back opening that aligns with a front opening in
the secondary unit.
To assemble air handlers utilizing factory-approved and
factory-provided dissimilar unit sizes for horizontal SDU or
winterizer applications, join all similar size shipping
sections per “Section-to-Section Assembly” on page 27.
Horizontal SDU/Winterizer Air Handler
Assembly
To assemble dissimilar unit sizes for an indoor horizontal
SDU/winterizer configuration:
1. Locate the mounting hardware and gasket material.
Note: Black unit support brackets ship pre-installed on
the primary (larger) unit section.
2. Apply gasket in direction of airflow between the black
unit support brackets to the roof of the primary unit.
See Figure 44. The gasket needs to be placed such that
it will be directly under the integral base frame of the
secondary (smaller) unit to be stacked on top. The
secondary unit will be centered along the width on the
primary unit.
3. If there is an opening in the roof of the primary unit,
apply gasket perpendicular to airflow on the roof next
to the opening (air entering side only).
4. Lift the secondary unit, following instructions in
“General Lifting Considerations” on page 22 (see
Figure 11), and place on the black unit support brackets
(see Figure 45). The secondary unit must be centered
on the primary unit between the black unit support
brackets.
WARNING
Heavy Objects!
Do not stack air handlers unless factory-designed and
factory-approved. When stacking units, factory-
designed unit support brackets must be used. Stacking
units without factory-approval and without factory-
provided support brackets could result in the base unit
collapsing under the weight of the top unit which could
result in death or serious injury and property damage.

unit at the bottom of the opening (see Figure 48.
3. Lift the secondary unit, follow instructions in “General
Lifting Considerations” on page 22 (see Figure 11), and
place on the black unit support brackets (see Figure 45,
p. 42. The secondary unit must be centered on the
primary unit between the black unit support brackets.

Component Installation Requirements
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 45
Component Installation Requirements
The components in the air handler may have installation
requirements that could affect the unit’s performance.
Diffuser Section
Diffuser sections are usually placed between a fan and a
downstream coil or filter. Because placement is critical to
unit performance, verify the correct placement of the
diffuser section before assembling the unit (see Figure 51).
Filter Section
Bag and cartridge filter sections can be used as a pre-filter
section, a final filter section, or both. This use is
determined by the filters placement in relation to the fan.
A final filter is placed after the fan.
A pre-filter is placed before the fan.
Note: Cartridge and bag filters provided by Trane are
fitted with a 7/8-inch header that fits in the filter
track. If using filters supplied by another
manufacturer, filters should be purchased with a 7/
8-inch header. In some cases it may be necessary to
gasket other manufacturers’ filters to ensure a
good air seal.
Filters should be installed when the unit is set. This will
protect internal components, such as the heating and
cooling coils.
Final Filter Section
A final filter section should not be bolted directly to the
face of a fan section. One or more intermediate sections
must be placed between the fan discharge and the filter
section.
Pre-Filter Section
A pre-filter section has no special installation
requirements unless placed directly upstream of a plenum
fan. In these configurations, ensure a blank section is
placed between the fan inlet and the filter section.
Trane recommends the use of disposable pre-filters with
high-efficiency filters. Disposable pre-filters slide into the
mounting tracks just ahead of the bag/cartridge filters.
Filter Installation
To install filters:
1. Disconnect the power to the unit.
2. Open the filter section access door.
3. Slide the filters into the tracks.
Note: Bag filters must be installed with the pleats in the
vertical plane.
4. The block-off is permanently installed and will create a
seal when the access door is closed.
5. Close the access door slowly to allow any gasketing to
compress.

WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote
disconnects before servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the power can not be
inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power
before servicing could result in death or serious injury.

Fan Section
The fan section can be configured as either draw-thru or
blow-thru. Review the submittals and unit tagging
information prior to assembly to determine placement.
Fan Isolation
The fan-and-motor assembly is internally isolated. The fan
and motor bases are bolted to a minimum of four spring
isolators. The isolators are secured to the fan section
support base.
Shipping tie-down bolts are bolted adjacent to the
isolators between the fan isolation base and the isolator
support frame. The shipping tie-downs secure the
isolation base to the support assembly to prevent any
damage to the fan section during shipment.
Note: Remove the tie-downs only if the factory-provided
isolation is to be used.
Adjusting the Isolators
Once the shipping tie-downs are removed and the internal
isolation is released, it may be necessary to adjust the
isolators to achieve the proper operation height of the fan
and motor isolation base.
Minimum required clearances are listed in Table 10. To
determine the isolator clearances on all unit sizes,
measure between the top of the cabinet channel and the
bottom of the isolation base channel. See Figure 69,
Figure 70, Figure 71, and Figure 72.
WARNING
Hazardous Service Procedures!
The maintenance and troubleshooting procedures
recommended in this manual could result in exposure
to electrical, mechanical or other potential safety
hazards. Always refer to the safety warnings provided
throughout this manual concerning these procedures.
Unless specified otherwise, disconnect all electrical
power including remote disconnect and discharge all
energy storing devices such as capacitors before
servicing. Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to
ensure the power can not be inadvertently energized.

Damper Section
Dampers are factory-installed and adjusted and can be
found in mixing box/economizer sections. There are two
damper blade configurations available: parallel-blade and
opposed-blade.
Traq™ dampers are another type of damper available in
mixing box sections. Traq dampers have only one blade
configuration - opposed. They have two control
applications available - standard Traq dampers and low-
flow Traq dampers. Low-flow Traq dampers are always not
linked and consist of two damper sets - one set for
minimum outside air measurement and one set for
economizing. Each will have its own VCM.
The air handler is available with factory-mounted controls
or end devices. If the unit is not ordered with controls or
end devices, it is the installers responsibility to provide
and install the damper actuators. Size the actuators
according to Table 12.
Mixing section and economizer dampers are designed for
the damper actuators to be direct coupled and installed in
the air stream. If other provisions are required,
modifications to the section will be the responsibility of
the installing contractor.

External face-and-bypass damper torque requirements
Opposed-Blade and Parallel-Blade Damper
Opposed-blade and parallel-blade airfoil dampers in unit
sizes 3-120, as well as internal and external face-and-
bypass sections, have centered dampers with an internal
jack-shaft (see Figure 86, Figure 87 and Figure 88). A 95-
degree actuator rotation gives a 90-degree blade travel.
Note: Damper blades should be checked for proper
operation from full open to full closed position
before unit start up. Damper blade positioning may
have changed due to shipping and handling
vibrations.

Component Installation Requirements
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 79
Multizone Modules
Under certain operating conditions, condensation may
form on the cold deck portion of the multizone damper
section. To prevent this, insulate around the damper rods.
Be sure the insulation does not affect damper operation.
Zone Damper Operators
Zone damper operators are available factory-mounted
with factory-mounted controls or as a stand-alone end
device. If not factory-provided, the contractor is
responsible for providing these operators. In all cases, the
damper operator should be connected to the drive rod.
Adjusting Zone Dampers
Zone dampers should be installed and adjusted prior to
making duct connections, assuring proper setup of the
damper zones:
1. Check the damper blades to confirm they are not
binding. The blade should rotate 90 degrees.
2. Determine the number of zones required. The zone
damper is fitted with a linkage bar that connects all
damper zones.
3. Select the number of damper segments required for
the first zone.
4. Cut a section out of the damper linkage bar just after
the last lever in that zone.
Note: It may be necessary to remove the damper linkage
bar to cut it. To remove the linkage bar pry the “e
rings from the blade axles and remove the bar.
5. Repeat steps 3 and 4 for the remaining zones.
6. Attach the damper operator drive rod to one blade axle
in each zone with the two-deck damper.
7. Use the self-drilling screws provided to mount the
bearing bracket assembly (see Figure 89).
Note: The drive rod kits ship in a separate box, found in
the fan module or the cold deck of the multizone
module.
Duct Connections
All duct connections to the air handlers should be installed
in accordance with the standards of the National Fire
Protection Association (NFPA):
NFPA 90A for installing air conditioning and ventilating
systems other than residence type.
NFPA 90B for residence-type warm air heating and air-
conditioning systems.
See unit submittal documentation for additional duct
mounting information.
Fan Discharge Connections
To ensure the highest fan efficiency, duct turns and
transitions must be made carefully, minimizing air friction
losses and turbulence. Proper ductwork installation, as
outlined by such organizations as Sheet Metal and Air
Conditioning Contractors National Association, Inc.
(SMACNA), should be followed closely.
Fan sections with rectangular and round openings have a
one-inch flange on the discharge that can be used to attach
the duct. When using lined ducts, the insulation should not
obstruct the discharge opening. For plenum fan sections
with bell mouth fittings, see “Bell Mouth Discharge
Connections” on page 82.

Component Installation Requirements
80 CLCH-SVX07C-EN
Connections made directly to the discharge opening of a
housed fan should have a minimum of three fan diameters
of straight duct before any turns or transitions. The
ductwork should be the same size as the fan discharge
opening. The first turn of the connection should be in the
same direction as the fan rotation as shown in Figure 90.
The air that the fan discharges into the duct is extremely
turbulent and requires some length of duct to stabilize.
Abrupt changes in ductwork directly off the fan discharge
may adversely affect fan performance and acoustics.
Damper Connections
Standard damper sections include mixing sections, filter
mixing sections, face dampers sections, internal face-and-
bypass sections, and economizer sections. There are two
damper blade configurations available - parallel-blade and
opposed-blade. Traq™ dampers are another type of
damper available in mixing box sections.
Ductwork attached to the standard damper sections
should be sized to fit the opening of the damper. Duct
opening dimensions are provided in the submittals. When
using lined duct, ensure that the insulation does not
obstruct the damper opening (see Figure 91 and
Figure 92).
Note: Damper blades should be checked for proper
operation from full-open to full-closed position
before unit start up. Damper blade positioning may
have changed due to shipping and handling
vibrations.

Discharge Plenum Connections
Discharge plenum sections are available with or without
openings. Sections with rectangular and round openings
have a framed opening that can be used to secure the duct
to the frames. If the duct is lined, it is important the
insulation does not obstruct the opening of the section.
For a discharge plenum with field-cut openings, attach the
duct to the side panel.
Bell Mouth Discharge Connections
Round duct connections to be fastened to plenum fan and
discharge plenum sections with bell mouth discharge
openings should be sized to attach to the casing or directly
to the bell mouth fitting. Attachment to the casing requires
the round duct diameter to be sized two inches larger than
the nominal bell mouth outlet. An angle ring with a flat
flange should be affixed to the round duct to secure the
duct to the casing (see Figure 96). Attachment to the bell
mouth fitting requires the duct and fitting to be insulated
by the installing contractor up to the bell mouth radius to
prevent condensation (see Figure 97). The bell mouth
fitting extends through the casing by one inch.

External Face-and-Bypass Connections
The external face-and-bypass damper sections will
require a field-fabricated duct to direct the bypass air into
the appropriate section. Duct sizing recommendations are
listed in Table 29.
When attaching a bypass duct to a downstream fan section
or access section, the section will have a factory-provided
opening. (see Figure 99, Figure 100, and Figure 101.)
When bypassing into an access section, remove a panel. It
is not necessary to cut an opening.

Coil Piping and Connections
General Recommendations
Proper installation, piping, and trapping is necessary to
ensure satisfactory coil operation and to prevent
operational damage:
Support all piping independently of the coils.
Provide swing joints or flexible fittings on all
connections that are adjacent to heating coils to
absorb thermal expansion and contraction strains.
If the coil was ordered with factory-mounted controls,
install the control valves. The valves ship separately.
Note: The contractor is responsible for supplying the
installation hardware.
For best results, use a short pipe nipple on the coil
headers prior to making any welded flange or welded
elbow type connections.
Extended drain and vent connections are provided as
standard on D1 and D2 coils only. If extended drains
and vents are required on other water coils, they must
be field-installed or ordered as specials from the
factory.
Pipe coils counterflow to airflow.
When attaching the piping to the coil header, make the
connection only tight enough to prevent leaks.
Maximum recommended torque is 200 foot-pounds.
Use pipe sealer on all thread connections.
After completing the piping connections, seal around
pipe from inner panel to outer panel.
Drain Pan Trapping
Threaded condensate drain connections are provided on
only one side of the coil section. Pitch the connection lines
horizontal or downward toward an open drain. Trane
recommends installing a plug to facilitate cleaning of the
trap. The drain connection sizes are:
Figure 30 illustrates the proper trapping, piping, and
operation of the trap. Use the formula under the figure to
determine the correct minimum depth for the condensate
trap. If a section has a drain pan for cleaning purposes
only, it does not need a trap; however, a cap or shutoff
valve should be installed on the drain connection. Only
sections handling condensate, such as a cooling coil
section or moisture eliminator section, require a trap.
NOTICE:
Connection Leaks!
Use a backup wrench when attaching piping to coils
with copper headers to prevent damage to the coil
header. Do not use brass connectors because they
distort easily and could cause connection leaks.
NOTICE:
Over Tightening!
Do not use Teflon-based products for any field
connections because their high lubricity could allow
connections to be over-tightened, resulting in damage
to the coil header.
NOTICE:
Leakage!
Properly seal all penetrations in unit casing. Failure to
seal penetrations from inner panel to outer panel could
result in unconditioned air entering the module, and
water infiltrating the insulation, resulting in equipment
damage.
WARNING
No Step Surface!
Do not walk on the sheet metal drain pan. Walking on
the drain pan could cause the supporting metal to
collapse, resulting in the operator/technician to fall.
Failure to follow this recommendation could result in
death or serious injury.
NOTICE:
Water Damage!
When more than one module has a drain pain, trap
each module individually. Connecting all drains to a
common line with only one trap can result in
condensate retention and possible water damage to
the air handler or adjoining space.

Steam Coil Piping
Air handlers fitted with steam coils have labeled holes for
piping penetrations. Figure 104 illustrates a typical steam
coil piping configuration. See Table 31 for the codes of
system components in these figures.
The coil condensate return line must be piped full size of
the condensate trap connection, except for a short nipple
screwed directly into the coil headers condensate return
tapping. Do not bush or reduce the coil return trapping
size.

To prevent coil damage, complete the following
recommendations:
Install a 1/2-inch NPT, 15 degree swing check valve
vacuum breaker with cracking pressure of 0.25 inches
Hg (3.4 inches water) or lower at the top of the coil. This
vacuum breaker should be installed as close to the coil
as possible.
For coil type NS, install the vacuum breaker in the
unused condensate return tapping at the top of the
coil.
Vent the vacuum breaker line to atmosphere or
connect it into the return main at the discharge side of
the steam trap
Note: Vacuum breaker relief is mandatory when the coil
is controlled by a modulating steam supply or
automatic two position (ON-OFF) steam supply
valve. Vacuum breaker relief is also recommended
when face-and-bypass control is used.
Proper steam trap installation is necessary for satisfactory
coil performance and service life. For steam trap
installation:
1. Install the steam trap discharge 12 inches below the
condensate return connection. Twelve inches provides
sufficient hydrostatic head pressure to overcome trap
losses and ensures complete condensate removal.
a. Use float and thermostatic traps with atmospheric
pressure gravity condensate return, with automatic
controls, or where the possibility of low-pressure
supply steam exists. (Float and thermostatic traps
are recommended because of gravity drain and
continuous discharge operation.)
b. Use bucket traps only when the supply steam is not
modulated and is 25 psig or higher.
Note: Trane steam coils require a minimum of 2 psi of
pressure to assure even heat distribution.
2. Trap each coil separately to prevent holding up
condensate in one or more of the coils.
3. Install strainers as close as possible to the inlet side of
the trap.
4. If installing coils in series airflow, control each coil
bank independently with an automatic steam-control
valve. Size the traps for each coil using the capacity of
the first coil in direction of airflow.
5. Use a modulating valve that has linear flow
characteristics to obtain gradual modulation of the coil
steam supply.
Note: Do not modulate systems with overhead or
pressurized returns unless the condensate is
drained by gravity into a receiver, vented to
atmosphere, and returned to the condensate
pump.
6. Pitch all supply and return steam piping down 1 inch
for every 10 feet in the direction of the steam or
condensate flow.
Note: Do not drain the steam mains or take-offs through
the coils. Drain the mains ahead of the coils
through a steam trap to the return line.
7. Ensure overhead returns have 1 psig of pressure at the
steam trap discharge for every 2 feet of elevation for
continuous condensate removal.
NOTICE:
Breaker Cracking Pressure!
The 1/2-inch NPT, 15 degree swing check valve vacuum
breaker is recommended because other vacuum
breakers, such as spring-loaded ball-check breakers,
have cracking pressures as high as 1.25 inches Hg (17
inches of water). Vacuum breakers with fitting sizes
smaller than 1/2 inch NPT are too small to relieve
vacuum quick enough to ensure complete condensate
drainage. Other types of swing check valve vacuum
breakers are acceptable if the fittings size is not smaller
than 1/2-inch NPT and the cracking pressure is not
larger than 0.25 inches HG (3.5 inches of water). Failure
to follow these instructions could result in equipment
damage.
NOTICE:
Coil Condensate!
Condensate must flow freely from the coil at all times
to prevent coil damage from water hammer, unequal
thermal stresses, freeze-up and/or corrosion. In all
steam coil installations, the condensate return
connections must be at the low point of the coil. Failure
to follow these instructions could result in equipment
damage.

Water Coil Piping
Figure 105, and Figure 106 illustrate typical water coil
piping configurations.
Type 5A, 5W, D1, W, UW, TT, P,2, P4, and P8 water coils are
self-venting only if the water velocity exceeds 1.5 feet per
second (fps) in the coil tubes. Type D2, UA, UU, and WD
water coils are self-venting only if the water velocity
exceeds 2.5 fps in the coil tubes. See the unit submittals for
coil water velocity. If the water velocity is below these
minimums, vent the coil by one of the following methods:
1. Install an air vent in the top pipe plug tapping of the
return header.
2. When the return line rises above the top of the coil,
vent from the top of the return header horizontally to
the return piping.
Note: TT coils are designed with larger than normal end
tube sheet holes to allow for maximum expansion.
Air leakage around tubes should be expected and
handled by capping over coil ends or by sealing
around tubes with a pliable sealant such as
silicone.

Liquid Lines
Line Sizing
Properly sizing the liquid line is critical to a successful split-
system application. The selected tube diameter must
provide at least 5°F [2.7°C] of subcooling at the expansion
valve throughout the operating envelope. Increasing the
size of the liquid line will not increase the available
subcooling.
Routing. Install the liquid line with a slight slope in the
direction of flow so that it can be routed with the suction
line. Minimize tube bends and reducers because these
items tend to increase pressure drop and to reduce
subcooling at the expansion valve. Liquid line receivers,
other than those that are factory-installed, are not
recommended.
Insulation
The liquid line is generally warmer than the surrounding
air, so it does not require insulation. In fact, heat loss from
the liquid line improves system capacity because it
provides additional subcooling.
Components
Liquid-line refrigerant components necessary for a
successful job include a filter drier, access port, solenoid
valve, moisture-indicating sight glass, expansion valve(s),
and ball shutoff valves. Figure 108 illustrates the proper
sequence for positioning them in the liquid line. Position
the components as close to the evaporator as possible.
Filter drier. There is no substitute for cleanliness during
system installation. The filter drier prevents residual
contaminants, introduced during installation, from
entering the expansion valve and solenoid valve.
Access port. The access port allows the unit to be
charged with liquid refrigerant and is used to
determine subcooling. This port is usually a
Schraeder® valve with a core.
Solenoid valve. In split systems, solenoid valves
isolate the refrigerant from the evaporator during off
cycles; under certain conditions, they may also trim the
amount of active evaporator as compressors unload.
Generally, the “trim” solenoid valve is unnecessary for
variable-air-volume comfort-cooling applications, and
is only required for constant-volume applications
when dehumidification is a concern.
Moisture-indicating sight glass. Be sure to install one
moisture-indicating sight glass in the main liquid line.
The only value of the sight glass is its moisture
indication ability. Use actual measurements of
temperature and pressure—not the sight glass—to
determine subcooling and whether the system is
properly charged. The moisture indicator/sight glass
must be sized to match the size of the liquid line at the
thermal expansion valve.
Thermal expansion valve. The expansion valve is the
throttling device that meters the refrigerant into the
evaporator coil. Metering too much refrigerant floods
the compressor; metering too little elevates the
compressor temperature. Choosing the correct size
and type of expansion valve is critical to assure it will
correctly meter refrigerant into the evaporator coil
throughout the entire operating envelope of the
system. Correct refrigerant distribution into the coil
requires an expansion valve for each distributor.
The thermal expansion valve must be selected for proper
size and capacity. The size of the expansion valve should
cover the full range of loadings. Check that the valve will
successfully operate at the lightest load condition. For
improved modulation, choose expansion valves with
balanced port construction and external equalization.
Cut the process tube and cap assembly from the liquid
connection as shown in Figure 109 and install the
expansion valve directly to the liquid connections.
NOTICE:
Valve Damage!
Disassemble the thermal expansion valve before
completing the brazing connections. If necessary, wrap
the valve in a cool, wet cloth while brazing. Failure to
protect the valve from high temperatures could result
in damage to internal components.

Suction Lines
Line sizing
Proper suction-line sizing is required to guarantee the oil
returns to the compressor throughout the system’s
operating envelope. At the same time, the line must be
sized so that the pressure drop does not excessively affect
capacity or efficiency. To accomplish both objectives, it
may be necessary to use two different line diameters: one
for the horizontal run and for vertical drops, and another
for the vertical lifts.
Routing
To prevent residual or condensed refrigerant from “free-
flowing” toward the compressor, install the suction line so
it slopes slightly—that is, by ¼ inch to 1 inch per 10 feet of
run—toward the evaporator. When the application
includes a suction riser, oil must be forced to travel the
height of the riser. Riser traps and double risers are
unnecessary in the suction line when the refrigerant coil is
used with Trane condensing units.
Avoid putting refrigerant lines underground. Refrigerant
condensation or installation debris inside the line, service
access, and abrasion/corrosion can quickly impair
reliability.
Insulation
Any heat that transfers from the surrounding air to the
cooler suction lines increases the load on the condenser
(reducing the system’s air-conditioning capacity) and
promotes condensate formation (adversely affecting
indoor air quality). After operating the system and testing
all fittings and joints to verify the system is leak-free,
insulate the suction lines all the way to inner side panel to
prevent heat gain and unwanted condensation.
Components
Installing the suction line requires field installation of
these components: a filter, access port, and a Frostat™
control when the refrigerant coil is used with Trane
condensing units. Position them as close to the
compressor as possible.
Note: Placement of the Frostat control is illustrated in
Figure 108 on page 90.
Filter. The suction filter prevents contaminants,
introduced during installation, from entering the
compressor. For this reason, the suction filter should
be the replaceable-core type, and a clean core should
be installed after the system is cleaned up.
Access port. The access port is used to determine
suction pressure. This port is usually a Schraeder valve
with a core.
Frostat™ coil frost protection. The Frostat control is the
preferred method for protecting evaporator coils from
freezing when the refrigerant coil is used with Trane
condensing units. It senses the suction-line
temperature and temporarily disables mechanical
cooling if it detects frost conditions. The control is
mechanically attached to the outside of the refrigerant
line, near the evaporator, and wired to the unit control
panel.
Ball shutoff valve. Adding manual, ball-type shutoff
valves upstream and downstream of the filter
simplifies replacement of the filter core.

Fan-Related Checks
If the unit is not externally isolated, ensure that the fan
isolator tie-down bolts have been removed. See “Fan
Isolation” section on page 62 for more information.
Rotate all fan wheels manually to confirm they turn
freely in the proper direction.
Check fan shaft bearings, fan wheel, and drive sheave
set screws for proper torque settings (see Table 35 on
page 111.
Fan sheaves should be tight and aligned.
Bearing set screws should be torqued. See Tab le 4 8
on page 124 for torque values.
Check fan drive belt tension. See “Tension the Fan
Belt” section on page 109.
Inspect fan motor and bearings for proper lubrication,
if necessary. See “Fan Bearing Lubrication,” on
page 124.
Coil-Related Checks
:
Ensure coil and condensate drain piping connections
are complete.
Check the piping and valves for leaks.
Open or close the valves to check operation.
The drain lines should be open.
If unit has a refrigerant coil, ensure that it has been
charged and leak-tested according to the instructions
provided with the condenser equipment. Adjust the
superheat setting.
Remove all foreign material from the drain pan and
check the pan opening and condensate line for
obstructions.
For steam coils, slowly turn the steam on full for at least
10 minutes before opening the fresh air intake on units
with fresh air dampers.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote
disconnects and discharge all motor start/run
capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be
inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives
or other energy storing components provided by Trane
or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s
literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of
capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all
capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect
power and discharge capacitors before servicing could
result in death or serious injury.
For additional information regarding the safe discharge
of capacitors, see PROD-SVB06A-EN
NOTICE:
Proper Water Treatment!
The use of untreated or improperly treated water in
coils could result in scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae or
slime. It is recommended that the services of a qualified
water treatment specialist be engaged to determine
what water treatment, if any, is required. Trane
assumes no responsibility for equipment failures which
result from untreated or improperly treated water, or
saline or brackish water.
Start-Up
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 107
Motor-Related Checks
Locate installation manual from the motor
manufacturer for the specific motor installed. This can
be found by contacting the motor manufacturers
representative. The motor manufacturers
recommendations take precedence for all matters
related to the start-up and routine maintenance of the
motor.
Check the motor lubrication for moisture and rust.
Remove and clean grease plugs to inspect.
If moisture is present, consult an authorized repair
shop for bearing inspection/replacement. This may
require removal and transport of motor.
If no moisture is present, refer to the motor
manufacturer’s lubrication recommendations for
proper lubrication.
The motor manufacturer may recommend
lubricating the motor as part of their routine start-
up instructions.
Check motor winding. An acceptable winding
resistance reading is from 6 meg-ohms to infinity. If
reading is less than 5 mega-ohms, the winding should
be dried out in an oven or by a blower.
Inspect the entire motor for rust and corrosion.
Bump-start the unit and confirm the fan wheel rotates
properly, as indicated by the rotation arrow located on
the fan housing.
Note: For motor warranty needs, contact your local Trane
sales office.
Unit Operation
Before complete start-up, bump-start the unit and confirm
the fan wheel rotates properly, as indicated by the rotation
arrow located on the fan housing.
After initial startup:
Calculate the motor voltage imbalance, notifying the
power company to correct unacceptable imbalances.
Periodically check the fan belt tension.
Calculate Motor Voltage Imbalance
After startup, measure the motor voltage and amperage
on all phases to ensure proper operation. The readings
should fall within the range given on the motor nameplate.
The maximum allowable voltage imbalance is 2 percent.
Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the sum of the
deviation of the three voltages from the average, divided
by twice the average voltage. For example, if the three
measured voltages are 221, 230 and 227, the average
voltage would be 226 volts. The percent of voltage
imbalance is then calculated.
In the example, 2.2 percent imbalance is not acceptable
and the power company should be notified to correct it.
VFD Programming Parameters
Units shipped with an optional variable frequency drive
(VFD) are preset and run-tested at the Trane factory. If a
problem with a VFD occurs, ensure that the programmed
parameters listed in Table 33 have been set. If trouble still
persist after verifying factory parameters are correct, call
Trane Drive Technical Support at 1-877-872-6363. Have the
unit serial number from the drive available for the
technical support representative. The technician will
determine if drive can be repaired or needs to be replaced.

Tension the Fan Belt
Proper belt tension is required to ensure maximum
bearing and drive component life and is based on motor
horsepower requirement. A label located on the bearing
support on the drive side of the unit lists all drive parts, the
proper belt tension, and deflection for that tension for the
specific drive (Figure 126).
If the drive is changed from the original, proper belt
tension can be estimated using Table 34.
The correct operation tension for a V-belt drive is the
lowest tension at which the belts will not slip under the
peak load conditions. It may be necessary, however, to
increase the tension of some drives to reduce excessive
belt flopping or to reduce excessive startup squealing.
Check the fan belt tension at least three times during the
first days of operation because there is a rapid decrease in
tension until the belt settles in. To measure belt tension,
use a belt tensiometer (see Figure 127). Determine actual
deflection by depressing one belt with the belt
tensiometer and measuring the deflection relative to the
other belts or to belt line (see Figure 128). Adjust the belt
tension to the correct pounds force and tighten all set
screws to the proper torque.
NOTICE:
Belt Tension! (2 of 2)
Do not over-tension belts. Excessive belt tension will
reduce fan and motor bearing life, accelerate belt wear
and possibly cause shaft failure. Under tensioning belts
is the primary cause of premature belt failure. Belts
should not squeal at startup. Recheck belt tension after
8 hours, 24 hours, and 100 hours of operation and
monthly thereafter.

Determine Fan Speed
Fan speed can be determined using a strobe-type
tachometer, or revolution counter.
Check unit vibration if the fan speed is changed more than
five percent from the original designed speed, or if parts
such as shafts, fan wheels, bearings, or other drive
components are replaced. Do not exceed the maximum
fan speed.
Pay particular attention to any vibration, noise, or
overheating of the motor and fan bearings; however, note
that bearings may run warm during break in.

WARNING
Live Electrical Components!
During installation, testing, servicing and
troubleshooting of this product, it may be necessary to
measure the speed of rotating components. Have a
qualified licensed service individual who has been
properly trained in handling exposed rotating
components perform these tasks. Failure to follow all
safety precautions when exposed to rotating
components could result in death or serious injury.
Start-Up
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 111
Align Fan and Motor Sheaves
Align the fan and motor sheaves using a straightedge. The
straightedge must be long enough to span the distance
between the outside edges of the sheaves. When the
sheaves are aligned, the straightedge will touch both
sheaves at points A through D (see Figure 129) to confirm
the shaft is parallel. For uneven width sheaves, place a
string in the center groove of both sheaves and pull tight.
Adjust the sheaves and tighten the sheave set screws to
the proper torque given in Table 35.
Check Multiple Belts
Tighten the belts slightly and rotate the drive several
times.
On multiple belt drives, ensure the force of deflection is
approximately the same on each belt by pushing each belt
in an equal distance at a point halfway from each sheave
(see Figure 129). If this force is not the same for each belt,
the motor and fan shaft are not parallel. Realign as
required. After realignment, tighten the belts again to the
standard belt tensioning specifications. If the force is still
not the same for all belts, the belts or sheaves are worn
and must be replaced.
Airflow Measuring Systems
Traq™ Dampers
Traq dampers are low-leak dampers that modulate and
measure airflow. Each Traq damper section is supplied
with a factory-mounted ventilation control module (VCM)
on the interior of the mixing box section. The VCM has an
input terminal for power and an output terminal for air
velocity (see Figure 130). A direct-digital controller
controls the factory-mounted and wired actuators.

VCM (Transducer) Calibration.
The VCM has an auto-
zero function that recalibrates the transducer once every
minute. When troubleshooting, allow for the recalibration
time before making any measurements.
Input Power.
The only input the VCM needs is the 24 Vac
power connected to terminals 1TB1–5 and 1TB1–6.
Output Velocity Signal.
The 2 to 10 Vdc linear output
signal from the VCM represents air velocity. This voltage
can be converted to represent airflow (cfm or L/s) using the
formula below and Table 36.
Table 37. In Table 38 through Figure 45, the cfm at 10Vdc
is a calculated value based on area and peak
velocity. In certain situations, it can be
advantageous to raise the velocity of air
through the remaining Traq dampers by
closing off one or more dampers in the unit. The
cfm at 10Vdc can be recalculated based on the
proportion of remaining Traq dampers or by
multiplying the remaining area of dampers by
peak velocity. Calculations are based on VCM
voltage versus airflow at sea level.
Figure 131. Traq damper terminal connections

Airflow = k (cfm @ 10V)
or
Airflow = k (L/s @ 10V)
For example, if the VCM on a size 30 air handler at sea
level (k=1) has a 10-volt signal, it would represent
24,492 cfm (11,559 L/s) through the Traq damper. If
the voltage were 6 volts, airflow through the Traq
damper would be 12,246 cfm (5779 L/s).

Trane utilizes AMCA certification for airflow measuring stations. Trane certifies that the Traq damper
herein is licensed to bear the AMCA seal. The ratings shown are based on tests and procedures performed
in accordance with AMCA Publication 611 and comply with the requirements of the AMCA Certified
Ratings Program.
The certification program provides the engineer and owner assurance that manufacturer-published
performance ratings for airflow measurement stations are accurate and repeatable. Trane Traq dampers
are certified with the integral ventilation control module which converts differential pressure to an
electronic signal for control.
Refer to Performance Climate Changer Air Handler catalog CLCH-PRC015-EN for Traq damper testing and
rating information.

CLCH-SVX07C-EN 117
Fan Inlet Airflow Measuring System
A fan inlet airflow measuring system is available on many
centrifugal and plenum fans. Each system comes with a
differential pressure transmitter. The minimum diameter
is connected to the LO port of the transmitter and the
reference pressure point is connected to (or actually is) the
HI port of the transmitter.
Wiring
The transmitter requires 24VDC power on terminals 1 (+)
and 2 (ground) of the transmitter. When the airflow
measurement system is ordered with a factory-mounted
MP580 controller, the 24 VDC power will be supplied.
In the absence of a factory-provided MP580 controller, the
installing contractor must ensure the transmitter has
24VDC power.
Note: Ensure that the transmitter has a separate power
source.
Transmitter Sizing
The Trane specification requires that the flow meter option
have a total accuracy of 5 percent. The total accuracy is a
combination of:
how accurately the flow meter itself is in sensing
airflow
how accurately the transmitter senses the differential
pressure
how accurately the controller translates the signal
from the transmitter to a differential pressure.
Selecting the proper transmitter is critical in order to get
accurate airflow measurements. How accurately the
transmitter senses the differential pressure is dependent
on:
the pressure range selected
accuracy of the selected transmitter
Trane air handlers use either a 0-20 inch or a 0-40 inch
range transmitter as standard. To sufficiently cover VAV
turndown on the smallest fans with the above range, a
transmitter with an accuracy of 0.25 percent (full scale) is
used as standard. If a field-provided transmitter with a
lower accuracy is selected, the range should be chosen
closer to the actual, maximum pressure differential
expected for the application.
The transmitter outputs a signal that represents the
differential pressure which is used to calculate airflow. To
adequately calculate and display the airflow for the
smaller fans, ensure that the analog input is programmed
with enough decimal places to sufficiently represent the
pressure differential being measured. For instance, Rover
should be used to increase the number of decimal places
being used (to a maximum of 4) on an MP-580/581
controller in lieu of the default zero.
Note that the adjustment of the “Zero” and “Span”
controls on the transmitter itself are not required at time of
installation. The transmitter is factory-calibrated to the
range selected and cannot be significantly adjusted to
“tighten” the range closer to the pressure being read for
the given application. The adjustments are primarily
provided to account for any drift that may occur over time.
Transmitter Calibration
The transmitter is factory-calibrated to a specific pressure
range with either a 0-20 inch or 0-40 inch w.g. range being
used in most cases. To check calibration and to adjust if
necessary, consult the transmitter manufacturer or the
factory for specific procedures.
The transmitter outputs a linear, 2-10 VDC signal
representing a differential pressure measurement. With
this measurement, the airflow through the fan can be
calculated using the following equation:
Significant differences in elevation and/or temperature
will affect the density of air. For air at a constant, non-
standard density, a field-obtained K factor can be used.
Alternatively, the following equation can be used to
continuously correct the equation above:
Note: Alternative units, including SI, can be used in place
of the IP units above although the K-factor must be
converted appropriately.

CFM = K * SQRT(DP)
Where:
CFM = Airflow (ft

K = A constant factor that is unique for each fan. See “Constant
Factor K” section on page 118 for more information.
DP = Differential pressure (inches w.g.) being measured by the
transmitter.

Constant Factor K
The constant factor K is unique for each fan and is
primarily a function of the area and other geometric
properties of the fan inlet. Pre-engineered factors are
available from the factory for fan types where the airflow
measurement system is available. See Table 46 for single-
fan K factors. For a multiple-fan system, the constant
factor K may need to be adjusted depending on how many
transmitters are supplied.

When a single transmitter is supplied in a multiple fan
system, one or more fans will be brought back to the
transmitter as a manifold and the airflow will represent the
total airflow for the system. As a result, the factor should
be adjusted as follows:
*If a fan fails in a multiple fan system where only one
transmitter is being supplied, and if the remaining fans will
continue to be used, the factor should be reduced
accordingly. Additionally, if the inactive fan was included
in the manifold back to the transmitter, the tubes from the
inactive fan should be temporarily removed and replaced
with tubes from an active fan (or simply plugged).
When a transmitter is supplied for each fan, the factor does
not need to be adjusted. The resulting airflow will
represent single-fan airflow. At the controller level, the
individual airflows should be summed to get the total
airflow. If a field-provided K-factor is to be used (see
below), the measured airflow for the system should be
divided by the number of active fans to get a single-fan
K-factor.

Field-obtained factors can provide maximum accuracy. To
obtain the factor in the field, measure the differential
pressure output from the transmitter while measuring the
airflow through the system. Once these two values have
been measured, simply solve for K using the following
equation:
Maintenance
For a typical HVAC environment - especially with upstream
filtration - there should be little to no required
maintenance. In extreme cases or for mishaps (bearing
grease in the taps for example), the flow meter is easily
cleanable. The fan inlet airflow measuring system is
extremely simple: a few pressure taps, a few fittings, and
some tubing. Although unlikely, if any tap were to get
clogged, simply disconnect each side of the transmitter
and blast air in a reverse direction through the system.
External Insulating Requirements
The following areas should be specifically addressed, as
applicable:
Supply and return water piping connections
Supply and return refrigerant piping connections
Condensate drain lines and connections
Outdoor-air-intake duct connections
Discharge duct connections

Coil Winterization
Water coil winterization procedures consist primarily of
draining water from the coil before the heating season.
Trane recommends flushing the coil with glycol if coils will
be exposed to temperatures below 35 degrees.
Install field-fitted drains and vents to permit winterization
of coils not in use and to assist in evacuating air from the
water system during startup. If draining is questionable
because of dirt or scale deposits inside the coil, fill the coil
with glycol before the heating season begins.
Individual coil types determine how to properly winterize
the coil. To determine the coil type find the “Service Model
No of Coil” on the coil section nameplate. The coil type is
designated by the second and third digits on that model
number. For example, if the model number begins with
“DUWB,” the coil type is UW; if the model number begins
with “DW0B,” the coil type is W.
Note: On many unit sizes, there are multiple coils in the
coil section. Be sure to winterize all coils in a given
coil section.
To winterize type D1, D2, WL, LL, UA, UW, UU, W, P2, P4,
P8, WD, 5D, and 5W coils:
1. Remove the vent and drain plugs.
2. Blow the coil out as completely as possible with
compressed air.
3. Fill and drain the coil several times with full strength
glycol so that it mixes thoroughly with the water
retained in the coil.
4. Drain the coil out as completely as possible.
5. To ensure no water remains in the coil, do not replace
the vent and drain plugs until the coils are put back into
service.
Note: Use care in removing header plugs from Type P2,
P4, and P8 coils. Over-torquing may result in
twisted tubes.
Moisture Purge Cycle
By it’s very nature, any HVAC unit with a cooling coil serves
as a dehumidifier, reducing the surrounding airs ability to
hold water vapor as its temperature falls. This normally
doesn’t present a problem when the unit is running.
However, when the fan stops, water vapor condenses on
the cold metal surfaces inside the air handler and remains
there until the air warms sufficiently to re-evaporate it.
This damp, dark environment—though temporary—can
encourage the growth of mold, mildew, and other
microbial contaminants.
NOTICE:
Coil Freeze-up!
Drain and vent coils when not in use. Trane
recommends glycol protection in all possible freezing
applications. Use a glycol approved for use with
commercial cooling and heating systems and copper
tube coils. Failure to do so could result in equipment
damage.
Routine Maintenance
CLCH-SVX07C-EN 127
Providing a moisture purge cycle 15 to 30 minutes after
shutdown disperses the cold, humid air inside the air-
handling system more evenly throughout the building.
This four-step cycle:
Closes the outdoor air dampers.
Turns off the cooling coil.
Opens any variable-air-volume terminals connected to
the air handler.
Operates the supply fan for 10 to 15 minutes.
Air movement discourages water condensation and
hastens re-evaporation of any condensate that does
happen to form. This simple preventative measure
effectively combats microbial growth and curbs moisture-
related deterioration of air-handling components.
Cleaning Non-Porous Surfaces
If microbial growth on a non-porous insulating surface
(closed cell insulation or sheet metal surface) is observed:
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit.
2. Wearing the appropriate personal protective
equipment, use a brush for sheet metal surfaces or a
soft sponge on a foil face or closed cell foam surface to
mechanically remove the microbial growth.
Note: Be careful not to damage the non-porous surface of
the insulation.
3. Install a block-off to prevent spray from going into a dry
section of the unit and/or system ductwork.
4. Thoroughly clean the contaminated area(s) with an
EPA-approved sanitizer specifically designed for HVAC
use.
5. Rinse the affected surfaces thoroughly with fresh
water and a fresh sponge to prevent potential
corrosion of the drain pan and drain line
6. Repeat steps 4 and 5 as necessary.
7. Confirm the drain line is open following the cleaning
process.
8. Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before putting it back
into service.
9. Replace all panels and parts and restore electrical
power to the unit.
10. Be careful any contaminated material does not contact
other areas of the unit or building. Properly dispose of
all contaminated materials and cleaning solution.
Cleaning Porous Surfaces
To clean a porous insulating surface (fiberglass
insulation):
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit.
2. Wearing the appropriate personal protective
equipment, use a vacuum device with a HEPA filter
(99.97 percent efficient at 0.3 micron particles) to
remove the accumulated dirt and organic matter.
Note: Be careful not to tear the insulation surface or
edges.
3. Confirm the drain line is open following the cleaning
process.
4. Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before putting it back
into service.
5. Replace all panels and parts and restore electrical
power to the unit.

Cleaning the Bulbs
Note: If bulbs are found to be broken, see the proper
warning and cautions below regarding broken
bulbs and hazardous vapors.
1. Disconnect all electrical power to the unit and the
ultraviolet bulbs.
2. Wearing soft cloth gloves and safety glasses, use two
hands and firmly grasp the bulb at each end.
3. Rotate the bulb 90 degrees in either direction and move
bulb away from the fixture and out of unit.
4. Wipe down each bulb with a clean cloth and alcohol.
Avoid touching the bulb with bare hands as skin oils
can accelerate future glass soiling and degrade the
bulb performance.
5. Carefully return the bulb to the fixture and rotate it 90
degrees in either direction until it is firmly secured.
6. Close and latch all unit panels and reenergize power to
the lights.
Replacing the Bulbs
Ultraviolet bulbs should be replaced annually if operated
continuously or after 9,000 hours of use if operated
intermittently. Replacement bulbs must be the specific size
and wattage as originally supplied from the factory.
Note: Although the lights may continue to generate a
characteristic blue glow beyond 9,000 operating
hours, the ultraviolet radiation emitted by the bulbs
degrades over time and will no longer provide the
intended benefit.
1. Disconnect power to the HVAC unit and the ultraviolet
bulbs. SEE WARNING ABOVE.
2. Wearing soft cloth gloves and safety glasses, use two
hands and firmly grasp the bulb at each end.
3. Rotate the bulb 90 degrees in either direction and move
bulb away from the fixture and out of unit.
4. Carefully install a new replacement bulb in the fixture
and rotate it 90 degrees in either direction until it is
firmly secured.
5. If broken bulbs are found or if you are required to
dispose of used bulbs, the proper warning and
cautions must be followed.
6. Always use cloth gloves and suitable eye protection
when cleaning or replacing these bulbs. Bulbs may
break if dropped or handled improperly.
Disposal of Bulbs
UV bulbs, like fluorescent bulbs, contain mercury, which is
a regulated hazardous waste. The disposal requirements
for hazardous wastes are determined by local, state and
federal guidelines. Check all regulations before disposing
of bulbs to assure you have met all requirements.
Refer to the MSDS sheet from the bulb manufacturer for
additional disposal, handling and safety information.
After replacing bulbs, close and latch all unit panels and
reenergize power to the lights.
