The UniTrane®Fan-Coil

©American Standard Inc. 1998 UNT-S-12

Indoor air quality (IAQ) is a

growing concern for building

owners and operators. Poor

IAQ may expose building

tenants to airborne viruses,

toxins, and pollutants that

threaten their health. Trane

recognizes the importance of

minimizing such risks. That’s

why our fan-coil units comply

fully with ASHRAE Standard

62-1989. It’s also why the

UniTrane design makes many

IAQ-related features

standard...Smart features like

easy filter removal, sloped

drain pans, cleanable interior

surfaces, and fresh air dampers

that can help keep your tenants

comfortable and healthy – and

let you breathe a little easier.

Easy-to-change filters

One element of good indoor air

quality is filtered room air. Ask

any building manager, hard-to-

change filters simply won’t be

replaced as often as necessary.

The filter system in UniTrane

fan-coils combines a snug-

fitting filter with ready access so

that changeouts are fast and

easy.

Drain pans that

really

drain

Removing moisture from drain

pans is another simple-yet-

critical element of good IAQ.

Without adequate drainage,

water will accumulate and may

become contaminated with the

spores inevitable in most

indoor environments.

To eliminate

standing

water and

combat

microbial

growth, the

drain pan in

each UniTrane fan-coil is

constructed of a rugged, non-

corrosive material and designed

with a positive slope that

promotes fast, complete

condensate removal.

Easy access for

cleanability

Accessibility and cleanability go

hand-in-hand. Together, they

contribute to good IAQ by

eliminating opportunities for

dirt accumulation and microbial

growth. With that in mind, we

designed the UniTrane fan-coil

unit with easy access to the coil

and fan and removable drain

pans. What about the cabinet’s

interior surfaces? No problem.

They’re lined with an

impermeable, closed-cell

insulation that’s fully

cleanable – and eliminates the

risk of fiberglass entering the

airstream.

Ventilation to ensure

clean air

Proper ventilation is key to

good indoor air quality, too.

That’s why we offer several

fresh-air damper options

with UniTrane fan-coils,

including an “auto-

economizer.” When

conditions are right, the

damper does more

than ventilate the room...it

introduces enough fresh air

for comfort cooling and, in

turn, saves energy and

operating expense.

IAQ is a complex issue, but

the UniTrane fan-coil’s smart

design makes it manageable.

Who would’ve known that

just

a fan and a coil

could

contribute so much to a

healthy indoor environment?

UniTrane®fan-coils are the smart choice

Whether you’re building a new facility or

renovating an existing one, a UniTrane fan-coil

system can satisfy the distinct interests of

everyone on your design team, from

aesthetics to life-cycle costs, from tenant

comfort to serviceability. Here’s how…

Application flexibility

• Horizontal and vertical models for cabinet,

concealed, and recessed applications

• Decorator colors to complement any

building interior

• Chilled-water, hot-water, steam, and

electric heating options

• Standalone and

automated operation

Easy installation

• Factory-installed

piping packages in a

wide variety of

options – including

control valves, unions,

strainers, and end valves –

and an auxiliary drain pan to

collect condensate, making field

insulation unnecessary

• Single-point power connection

with factory-installed

transformer to reduce

jobsite labor

• Factory-installed/tested,

unit-mounted controls to

minimize field setup and

assure reliability

Simple operation,

intelligent control

• Automatic changeover between

cooling and heating

modes

• Free-cooling

economizers and

modulating valves

to maximize

system efficiency

Serviceable design

• Easy filter removal to encourage

regular replacement

• Removable drain pans that wipe

clean with a damp cloth

• Quick-disconnect fan motors for

easy removal and service

detail. Factory commissioning

means less field labor, lower

start-up costs, faster

installation, trouble-free start-

up, and accurate operation

from day one. It also means

less waiting before occupancy.

Central

control

ICS makes

managing

your facility a

lot easier.

Direct digital

controllers

(DDC) on the

fan-coils and a

Tracer building automation

system give you system-wide

monitoring, control, and

diagnostic capabilities from a

single location. Use the PC

workstation’s easy-to-learn

interface to adjust setpoints,

open or close valves and

dampers, and turn individual

units on or off. Add a modem to

oversee the system’s operation

from a remote location or to

automatically notify your

service company of alarms.

Optimized efficiency,

system-wide

The comfort system represents

a large part of a building’s

energy diet. Automated control

strategies like time-of-day

scheduling, demand limiting,

equipment sequencing, and

coordinated control of HVAC

equipment and lighting let you

control energy use without

compromising comfort.

Comprehensive

information

Everything you need to

know about your

Tracer/UniTrane system is

as close as your PC.

Operating data from all

system components is

readily available for

evaluation. Reports

document useful information

about system performance, air

quality, energy consumption,

and equipment operating

trends. In-depth diagnostics

combined with preprogrammed

reminders and instructions

simplify preventive

maintenance and

troubleshooting, ultimately

reducing equipment downtime.

Commissioning, control,

efficiency, and information...it

simply all adds up to one...

UniTrane units with ICS. One

smart system from one

supplier...not just one smart

design...but one smart choice.

Let Trane be the one for you!

Underlying every UniTrane unit

with an Integrated ComfortTM

system (ICS)

is Trane’s

unrivaled

knowledge of

HVAC

systems and

our unique

application

of that

knowledge.

We not only

design the HVAC equipment,

we engineer the unit

controllers, building

automation system, and

application software, too. The

result? Thoughtful system

optimization. Comfort that’s

reliable and economical. A

system that’s sophisticated, yet

simple to operate… one that’s

easy to own because one

supplier manufactures, installs,

warrants, and services every

component. Just one. Trane.

Factory

commissioning

Nobody likes surprises on the

jobsite. That’s why factory

commissioning is key to ICS.

Our building automation

specialists design the

communication link, operate

the equipment once it’s

installed, then verify the entire

system’s performance – in

UniTrane®Fan-Coils plus Tracer®Building Automation Controls

equal one smart system

The UniTrane®fan-

coil unit

Fan-coil units aren’t new. But

Trane took this simple

design, just a fan and a coil,

and made it better. UniTrane

fan-coil units are room

conditioners that operate

quietly, provide total comfort

control, and can help you

lower costs while keeping

your tenants happy.

Cuts start-up costs

Unit installation is fast and

easy. Trane factory-installs

complete piping packages

and advanced, low-voltage

controls. This significantly

reduces field labor,

eliminates costly electrical

requirements, and assures a

trouble-free system start-up.

Lowers operating

costs

UniTrane fan-coil controls make

operation easy and cost-

effective. The controls at each

unit determine whether heating

or cooling is needed, then

switch to the right operating

mode-automatically. Adding a

Tracer®building-level controller

transforms the easy-to-link

UniTrane controls into a Trane

Integrated ComfortTM system

(ICS). The ICS approach lets you

control all of your fan-coil units

from a single location and

provides detailed reports to

help you manage operating

costs.

Keeps tenants happy

Good indoor air quality (IAQ) is

as vital to occupant comfort as

an HVAC system that works

properly. Poor IAQ can reduce

productivity, increase

absenteeism...even cause

serious illness. As if that

weren’t enough, improperly

controlling the relative

humidity inside your building

increases the likelihood of mold

and fungal growth, which in

turn can cause musty odors

and costly damage to

furnishings and the building

structure.

The IAQ-conscious design of

UniTrane fan-coils helps

control contaminants at their

source. The result? Healthy,

comfortable rooms...satisfied

tenants...content owners and

operators.

are the smart choice for your
