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 refrigerantsincluding
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.
WARNING
Contains Refrigerant!
System contains oil and refrigerant under high pressure. Recover
refrigerant to relieve pressure before opening the system. See unit
nameplate for refrigerant type. Do not use non-approved refrigerants,
refrigerant substitutes, or refrigerant additives.
Failure to follow proper procedures or the use of non-approved
refrigerants, refrigerant substitutes, or refrigerant additives could result
in death or serious injury or equipment damage.
NOTICE: Warnings and Cautions appear at appropriate sections through-
out this literature. Read these carefully.
WARNING: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
CAUTION: Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if not
avoided, may result in minor or moderate injury. It may also be used to
alert against unsafe practices.
CAUTION: Indicates a situation that may result in equipment or property-
damage only accidents.

Unit Inspection
Carefully inspect chiller while still on shipping conveyance. If unit is damaged or has
broken free from anchorage, require inspection by transportation inspectors. File
damage claims with the carrier and notify a Trane sales representative. The
manufacturer is not responsible for damage occurring during transit. Do not install a
damaged unit without sales office approval.
Inspection Checklist
To protect against loss due to damage incurred in transit, complete the following
checklist upon receipt of the unit:
Inspect individual pieces of the shipment before accepting the unit. Check for
obvious damage to the unit or packing material.
Check the unit for concealed damage before it is stored and as soon as possible
after delivery. Concealed damage must be reported within 15 days.
If concealed damage is discovered, stop unpacking the shipment. Do not remove
damaged material from receiving location. Take photos of the damage, if possible.
The owner must provide reasonable evidence that the damage did not occur after
delivery.
Notify the carriers terminal of damage immediately by phone and by mail.
Request an immediate joint inspection of the damage by the carrier and the con-
signee.
Notify a Trane sales representative and arrange for repair. Do not repair the unit
until damage is inspected by the carriers representative.
Loose Parts Inventory
Check all items against shipping list. Water vessel drain plugs, rigging and electrical
diagrams, service literature and optional water temperature sensors are placed inside
the UCP (unit control panel) for shipment before it is shrinkwrapped with waterproof

Installation Overview
For convenience, Table 2 summarizes responsibilities that are typically associated
with the CGWF/CCAF chiller installation process.
Refer to the Installation Mechanical and Installation Electrical sections of this manual
for detailed installation instructions.
Locate and maintain the loose parts, e.g. isolators, flow sensors or other factory-
ordered, field-installed options, for installation, as required. Loose parts are
located in the starter/control panel.
Install the unit on a foundation with flat support surfaces, level within 1/4 (6.35
mm) and of sufficient strength to support concentrated loading. Place the manu-
facturer-supplied neoprene isolators assemblies under the unit.
Install the unit per the instructions outlined in the Mechanical Installation section.
Complete all water piping and electrical connections.
NOTE: Field piping must be arranged and supported to avoid stress on the
equipment. It is strongly recommended that the piping contractor provide at least 3
feet (914 mm) of clearance between the pre-installation piping and the planned
location of the unit. This will allow for proper fit-up upon arrival of the unit at the instal-
lation site. All necessary piping adjustments can be made at that time. Refer to the
current engineering bulletin for further details on installation.

Installation Mechanical
Unit Storage
Extended storage of the chiller prior to installation requires the following
precautionary measures:
1. Do not remove the protective coverings from the control panel.
2. Store the chiller in a dry, vibration-free and secure area.
Periodically check the pressure in each refrigerant circuit to verify that the refrigerant
charge is intact. If it is not, contact a qualified service organization and the appropriate
Trane sales office.
Location Requirement
Noise Consideration
Locate the unit away from sound-sensitive areas. If necessary, install the optional
isolators under the unit. Refer to Unit Isolators. Install vibration isolators in all piping
and use flexible electrical conduit. Consult an acoustical engineer for critical
applications.
Foundation
Provide rigid non warping mounting pads or a concrete foundation of sufficient
strength and mass to support the chiller operation weight (i.e. including completed
piping, and full operating charges of refrigerant, oil and water). The unit operating
weights are provided in Table 3 and Table 4. Once in place, the chiller should be level
within 1/4 (6.3 mm) over the length and width. The Trane Company is not
responsible for equipment problems resulting from an improperly designed or
constructed foundation or for improper installation.
Ventilation
Make provisions to remove heat generated by unit operation from the equipment
room. Ventilation must be adequate to maintain an ambient temperature lower than
125 F (52.5 C). The condenser and evaporator pressure relief valve(s) must be vented
in accordance with all local and national codes. Refer to Pressure Relief Valves.
Drainage
Locate the units near a large capacity drain so that water vessels can be emptied
during shut down or repairs. Condensers and evaporators are provided with drain
connections. Refer to Unit Piping. All local and national codes apply.
Rigging
Model CGWF/CCAF chillers should be moved by lifting, if the crate has been
removed. Refer to Table 3 and Table 4 for typical unit lifting and operating weights.
Figure 4 and Figure 5 show proper lifting methods. When on the shipping skid, the
unit can be pushed from one end with a forklift, but should never be lifted using a
forklift.
Note: Two steel lifting angles, to be used for lifting the unit, are secured to the skid
when the unit is shipped (20 -50 ton units only). Hardware is provided to mount the
lifting angles on the unit.

Recommended Clearances
Provide recommended access clearance for service and maintenance operations.
Refer to recommendations provided in Figure 7 - Figure 11. Local codes may take
precedence over recommendations.
Unit Isolation
There are two mounting methods that will minimize sound and vibration. They are the
direct-mount method and the isolator-mount method.
Direct Mounting
The unit can be direct-mounted on an isolated concrete pad or on an isolated concrete
footing at each end. Refer to Table 3 and Table 4 for unit operating weights. A
mounting hole is provided in the base of the unit frame at each mounting location.
Provide a means of securely anchoring the unit to the mounting surface. Level the
unit carefully. Refer to Leveling the Unit.
Neoprene Isolator Mounting
Install the optional neoprene mounting isolators at each mounting location. Refer to
Table 6 for isolator selection, placement and loading information. Isolators are
identified by color and by the isolator part number.
Bolt the isolator to the mounting surface. Do not fully tighten the mounting bolts.
Mount the unit on the isolators and install a 1/2-inch (13 mm) nut on each isolator
positioning pin. Maximum isolator deflection should be 1/4-inch. Level the unit

Unit Piping
General Water Piping Recommendations
Make water piping connections to evaporator and condenser(s). Isolate and support
piping to prevent stress on the unit. Use flanged ells or spool-pieces to facilitate
service procedures. Construct piping according to local and national codes. Insulate
and flush piping before connecting to unit.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
To prevent equipment damage, bypass the unit if using an acidic
flushing agent.
Use a pipe sealant or teflon tape on all water connections. Minimize heat gain and
prevent condensation by insulating all chilled water piping.
CAUTION
Piping Damage!
To prevent damage to water piping, do not over-tighten connections.
Water System
Water Flow Rates
Establish balanced water flow through both the evaporator and condenser. Flow rates
should fall between the minimum and maximum values given inTable 3 and Table 4.
Flow rates above or below these values can cause equipment damage or improper
unit operation.
Pressure Drop Measurement
Measure evaporator water pressure drop at the pressure gauge(s) on the system
water piping. Readings should approximate those shown by the pressure drop charts
in Figure 12 and Figure 13.
Note: Evaporator pressure drop is an approximation and is to be used as a tool to
estimate flow rate and as an aid to waterside system piping design. If an accurate
measurement of flow rate is required, an accurate flow meter must be installed in the
system.

Evaporator Water Piping
Evaporator Water Connections.
Internal NPTF water inlet and outlet connections are used on all 20 through 50 ton
CGWF and 20-60 ton CCAF units. 60 ton CGWF use grooved pipe connectors for
water inlet and outlet. Evaporator water inlet and outlet types, sizes and locations are
shown in Figure 14.
Evaporator Piping Components
Figure 14 illustrates typical recommended evaporator piping components. Piping
components and layout vary, depending on water source and connection locations. A
vent is located on top of the evaporator at the water outlet end. Provide additional
vents at high points in the piping to bleed air from the chilled water system. Install
pressure gauge(s) to monitor entering and leaving chilled water pressure.
CAUTION
Excessive Water Pressure!
To prevent evaporator damage, do not exceed 300 psi for 20-60 ton CCAF
and 20-50 ton CGWF, and 215 psi for 60 ton CGWF evaporator water
pressure.
Provide shutoff valves in the line(s) to the gauge(s) to isolate the gauges when not in
use. Use pipe unions to simplify disassembly for system service. Use vibration
eliminators to prevent transmitting vibrations through the water lines.
Install thermometers in the lines to monitor evaporator entering and leaving water
temperatures. Install a balancing cock in the leaving water line. It will be used to
establish a balanced water flow. Both the entering and leaving water lines should
have shutoff valves installed to isolate the evaporator for service.
Flow Sensing Devices
Chilled water flow switches are optional, but there must be a chilled water flow
interlock provided to the MP to indicate that the evaporator pump is running. To
provide additional chiller protection, install and wire the flow switch in series with the
chilled water pump interlock for the chilled water circuits (refer to Chilled Water Flow
Interlock). Specific connection and schematic wiring diagrams shipped with the unit.
Figure 14 Recommended Piping
CGWF-SVX01A-EN 33
Flow switches must stop or prevent compressor operation if chilled water flow drops
off drastically. Follow the manufacturer's recommendations for selection and
installation procedures. General guidelines for flow switch installation are outlined
below:
1. Mount the switch upright with a minimum of 5 pipe diameters straight, horizontal
run on each side. Do not install close to elbows, orifices, or valves.
Note: The arrow on the switch must point in the direction of water flow.
2. To prevent switch fluttering, remove all air from the water systems.
Note: The MP provides a 6-second time delay before shutting the unit down on a
loss-of-flow diagnostic. Contact a qualified service organization if nuisance
machine shutdowns persist.
Install a pipe strainer in the evaporator water supply line to protect components from
water-borne debris.
Evaporator Drain.
The evaporator drain connection should be piped to a suitable drain facility to empty
the evaporator during service or shutdown. Provide a shutoff valve in the drain line. If
the evaporator drain connection is not piped, remove the drain plug from its shipping
location in the control panel and install it in the drain connection.
CAUTION
Use Pipe Strainers!
To prevent evaporator or condenser damage, pipe strainers must be
installed in the water supplies to protect components from water born
debris. The Trane Company is not responsible for equipment-only-
damage caused by water born debris.
Condenser Water Piping
Condenser Water Connections.
Condenser water inlet and outlet types, sizes and locations are given in Figure 7 -
Figure 11.
Condenser Piping Components.
Condenser piping components and layout vary, depending on water source and
connection locations. Figure 15 illustrates typical piping components for a well water
(city water) condensing source. Typical components for a cooling tower condensing
source are ALSO shown in Figure 16.
Condenser piping components generally function identically to those in the
evaporator piping system. Refer to Evaporator Piping. In addition, cooling tower
systems may include a manual or automatic bypass valve that can alter water flow
rate to maintain condensing pressure. Well (city) water condensing systems should
include a pressure reducing valve and water regulating valve (Figure 15).
A pressure reducing valve should be installed to reduce water pressure entering the
condenser. This is required only if water pressure exceeds 300 psig. This is necessary
to prevent damage to the disc and seat of the water regulating valve that can be
caused by excessive pressure drop through the valve.
34 CGWF-SVX01A-EN
CAUTION
Excessive Water Pressure!
To prevent condenser or regulating valve damage, do not exceed 150 psi
for 30 and 60 ton units and 300 psi for 20, 25, 40 and 50 ton units
condenser water pressure.
The optional water regulating valve(s) maintains condensing pressure and
temperature by throttling water flow leaving the condenser in response to
compressor discharge pressure. Adjust the regulating valve(s) for proper operation
during start-up.
Condenser Drains.
The condenser shells can be drained by removing the drain plugs from the bottom of
the condenser heads. Also remove the vent plugs (at the top of the condenser heads)
to facilitate complete drainage.
When the unit is shipped, the condenser drain plugs are located in the control panel
along with the evaporator drain plug. The condenser drains can be piped to drain
facilities, if desired. If they are not, install the drain plugs in the condenser drain
connections on the condenser.
CGWF-SVX01A-EN 35
Water Regulating Valve
The water regulating valve maintains condensing pressure and temperature by
throttling water flow leaving the condenser in response to compressor discharge
pressure, decreasing water flow as pressure falls, and increasing water flow when
discharge pressure rises.
Install the valve on the condenser leaving water line (Figure 15). Dual circulated units
(40, 50, and 60-ton) require dual regulating valves installed in parallel in the leaving
water line (Figure 15).
Figure 15 Components for Condenser Water Circuit
36 CGWF-SVX01A-EN
Locate the valve after the thermometer and before the shutoff valve (Figure 15). Run
the capillary tubing from the valve(s) to the discharge service valve(s).
CAUTION
Refrigerant Loss!
To prevent refrigerant loss, locate capillary tubing and secure it to avoid
damage due to friction or vibration.
Connect the capillary tubing to the access port on the discharge service valve(s).
Ensure that the valve is closed to the access port before removing flare cap.
CAUTION
High Pressure Refrigerant Gas!
Make sure the discharge valve access port is closed before removing
flare cap. Improper removal of flare cap may result in instantaneous
release of high pressure refrigerant causing the cap to become a
projectile and/or liquid refrigerant to contact the skin. Failure to close
discharge valve access port before removing flare cap may result in
minor or moderate injury.
Loosen the flare cap slowly to relieve residual pressure and connect the water
regulating valve capillary tubing.
Adjust the regulating valve for proper operation during unit start-up
.
Figure 16 Typical Water Regulating Valve Installation
CGWF-SVX01A-EN 37
Water Treatment
Using untreated or improperly treated water in these units may result in inefficient
operation and possible tube damage. Consult a qualified water treatment specialist to
determine whether treatment is needed.
CAUTION
Proper Water Treatment!
The use of untreated or improperly treated water in a Chiller may 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 assume no
responsibility for equipment failures which result from untreated or
improperly treated water, or saline or brackish water.
Water pressure Relief Valves
Install a water pressure relief valve in the condenser and evaporator leaving chilled
water piping (Figure 15). Water vessels with close-coupled shutoff valves have a high
potential for hydrostatic pressure buildup on a water temperature increase. Refer to
applicable codes for relief valve installation guidelines.
CAUTION
Install Water Relief Valves!
To prevent shell damage, install pressure relief valves in both evaporator
and condenser water systems.
Low Temperature Operation
The leaving water temperature cutout setpoint is adjusted using the DynaView or
TechView. There is a minimum differential that must exist between the Chilled Water
Setpoint (CWSP) and the Leaving Water Temperature Cutout setpoint (LWTCS). This
minimum varies depending on the design DT, the number of cooling stages and
whether or not Hot Gas Bypass (HGBP) is installed. The equations to calculate
LWTCS are shown below.
Leaving Water Temperature Cutout Setpoint (LWTCS) is:
20-30 T for units with out HGBP

Pressure Relief Valve Venting
All CGWF units utilize two refrigerant-pressure relief valves for each circuit (one high
side and one low side) which must be vented to the outdoor atmosphere. The high
side relief valves are located at the left end of each condenser at the top (facing the
control panel). The low side relief valves are located at the right end of the
evaporator.Relief valve connection sizes are 5/8 flare on the condenser and 3/8 flare
on the evaporator.
CCAF units have evaporator relief valve(s) only.
All relief valve venting is the responsibility of the installing contractor.
Vent pipe size must conform to the ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 15 for vent pipe sizing. All
federal, state, and local codes take precedence over any suggestions stated in this
manual.
Consult local regulations for any special relief line requirements.
CAUTION
Proper Vent Piping!
Vent piping must be installed to code specifications. Failure to heed
specifications could result in capacity reduction, unit damage and/or
relief valve damage.
Once the relief valve has opened, it will re-close when pressure is reduced to a safe
level. The valve may leak and should be replaced.
Pipe each relief valve on the unit into a common vent line. Provide an access valve on
the common line to connect vacuum pump discharge and vent excess refrigerant out
of the mechanical room. The access valve must be located at the low point of the vent
piping to enable draining of any condensate that may accumulate in the piping.

WARNING
Confined Space Hazards!
Do not work in confined spaces where sufficient quantities of a
refrigerant or other hazardous, toxic or flammable gas may be leaking.
Refrigerant or other gases could displace available oxygen to breathe,
causing possible asphyxiation or other serious health risks. Some gases
may be flammable and or explosive. Evacuate the area immediately and
contact the proper rescue or response authority. Failure to take
appropriate precautions or to react properly to a potential hazard could
result in death or serious injury.

Refrigerant Piping (CCAF only)
Refer to the Trane Reciprocating Refrigeration Manual for refrigerant piping
selection information. Refrigerant pipe size selected must be within the velocity and
pressure drop limitations required for proper system operation. It is essential that
refrigerant piping be properly sized and applied since these factors have a significant
effect on performance.
NOTE: Use Type L refrigerant grade copper tubing only. The use of a lower grade
tubing can cause operating problems.
Liquid Line Components and Connections
Liquid line connections sizes and locations are shown in Figure 10 - Figure 11.
Thermostatic expansion valves, refrigerant sight glass, solenoid valves and schraeder
valves are standard components on CCAF liquid lines. A liquid line filter drier must be
installed for each circuit. Install a liquid line service valve in the liquid line to isolate
the drier for service.
Liquid Line Sizing
Trane recommends sizing the liquid line diameter as small as possible while
maintaining acceptable pressure drop. This will minimize the required refrigerant
charge and increase compressor life.
Liquid risers in a system an additional 0.5 psig pressure drop per each foot of vertical
rise. If the riser is length exceeds 15 feet, a larger diameter and/or shorter liquid line
may be required to provide required subcooling at the expansion valve. The line does
not have to be pitched. Basic liquid line sizing perimeters for these units are:
Liquid lines are not usually insulated. If, however, the line runs through an area of
high ambient temperature (i.e. boiler room), subcooling my drop below required
levels. Liquid line passing though these warm spaces should be insulated.
Discharge (hot gas) Lines
Pitch discharge lines in the direction of hot gas flow at the rate of 1/2-inch per each 10
feet of horizontal run. Discharge line sizing is based on required velocity to provide
good oil movement. Basic discharge line parameters are:
Liquid Velocity 100-250 fpm
Maximum allowable pressure drop 3-6 psig (1F)
Maximum allowable pressure drop 6 psig (1F) 6 psig (1F)
Maximum Velocity 3500 fpm
Minimum Velocity (at minimum load)
Horizontal lines 500 fpm
Vertical lines (up flow) 1000 fpm

Leak Test
Once refrigerant piping is complete, thoroughly test the system for leaks.
System Evacuation
For field evacuation, use a rotary-style vacuum pump capable of pulling a vacuum of
100 microns or less. Follow the pump manufactures instructions for proper use of the
pump. The line used to connect the pump to the system should be copper and of the
largest diameter that can practically be used. Using a larger line size with minimum
flow resistance can significantly reduce evacuation time.
Rubber or synthetic hose are not recommended for unit evacuation because they
have moisture absorbing characteristics which result in excessive outgassing and
pressure rise during the standing vacuum test. This makes it impossible to determine
if the unit has a leak, contains excessive moisture, or is experiencing a continual high
rate of pressure increase due to the hoses.
NOTE: Insure that all sections of the refrigerant system are properly evacuated.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
Do not use a megohm meter or apply power to compressor windings
under vacuum. This may damage motor windings.
Refrigerant Charging
Once the system is properly installed, leak tested and evacuated, refrigerant charging
can begin. Liquid refrigerant must be charged into each circuit through the liquid line
access valve with the compressor(s) off.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
To prevent evaporator tube rupture, never charge liquid refrigerant into a
water vessel when refrigerant temperature/pressure relationship of the
vessel is below freezing.
Charge refrigerant into the system by weight. Use an accurate scale or charging
cylinder to determine the exact charge entering the system. Failure to charge the
system accurately can lead to under or over-charging and result in unreliable
operation.
If system pressure equalize before the full charge enters the system, close the
charging port and proceed to Start-up Procedure. Once the unit is operating, add the
remainder of the required charge to the system.
CGWF-SVX01A-EN 43
Installation Electrical
General Recommendations
The wiring procedures described in this portion of the manual must be accomplished
to obtain proper operation of the basic CGWF/CCAF unit. Electrical wiring instructions
for all optional features and equipment are described In the Optional Electrical
Wiring sections of this manual.
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.
All wiring must comply with National Electric Code (NEC) and state and local
requirements. Outside the United States, the national and/or local electrical
requirements of the other countries shall apply. The installer must provide properly
sized system interconnecting and power supply wiring with appropriate branch circuit
protection. Type and locations of disconnects must comply with all applicable codes.
CAUTION
Use Copper Conductors Only!
Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of conductors.
Failure to use copper conductors may result in equipment damage. All
wiring must comply with applicable local and national codes.
Electrical connection locations are shown in Figure 7 - Figure 11. Minimum circuit
ampacities, recommended fuse sizes and other unit electrical data are provided in
Table 10 and Table 11, and on the unit nameplate. Refer to the Field Wiring and
Remote Sensor Layout Schematic shown in the Unit Wiring section.
Power Supply Wiring
Unit Power Supply
The installer must connect appropriate line power supply (with fused disconnects) to
the terminal block or non-fused, unit mounted disconnect in the power section of the
unit control panel. Refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3. Field wiring diagrams, electrical
schematics and component location drawings are also attached to the inside of the
control panel door.
The unit power fused disconnect switch(es) should be located in the general area of
the unit to comply with NEC or local codes. The unit disconnect can be used as an
emergency shutdown device.
Normally, manual shutdown of the unit is accomplished at the DynaView. Then, open
the line power and control power (if used) fused disconnects after the pumpdown
cycle is complete.
Equipment Grounds

Scroll Compressor Electrical Phasing
It is important that proper rotation of the scroll compressor be established before the
machine is started. Proper motor rotation requires confirmation of the electrical phase
sequence of the power supply. The motor is internally connected for clockwise
rotation with the inlet power supply phased A,B,C.
To confirm the correct phase sequence (ABC), use a Model 45 Associated Research
Phase indicator or equivalent.
Basically, voltages generated in each phase of a polyphase alternator or circuit are
called phase voltages. In a three-phase circuit, three sine wave voltages are
generated, differing in phase by 120 electrical degrees. The order in which the three
voltages of a three-phase system succeed one another is called phase sequence or
phase rotation. This is determined by the direction of rotation of the alternator. When
rotation is clockwise, phase sequence is usually called ABC, when
counterclockwise, CBA.
This direction may be reversed outside the alternator by interchanging any two of the
line wires. It is this possible interchange of wiring that makes a phase sequence
indicator necessary if the operator is to quickly determine the phase rotation of the
motor.
Correcting Improper Electrical Phase Sequence
Proper compressor motor electrical phasing can be quickly determined and corrected
before starting the unit. Use a quality instrument such as an Associated Research
Model 45 Phase Sequence Indicator and follow this procedure.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this
product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components.
Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been
properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these
tasks. Failure to follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to
live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.
1. Turn Chiller off.
2. Open the electrical disconnect or circuit protection switch that provides line
power to the line power terminal block (1TB1) in the control panel (or to the unit-
mounted disconnect 1S1).
3. Connect the phase sequence indicator leads to 1TB1 (or 1S1) as follows:
4. Turn power on by closing the unit supply power fused disconnect switch.
5. Read the phase sequence displayed on the indicator. The ABC LED on the face
of the phase indicator will glow if phase sequence is ABC.
6. If the CBA indicator glows instead, open the unit main power disconnect and
switch two line leads on 1TB1 (1S1). Reclose the main power disconnect and
recheck phasing.
7. Reopen the unit disconnect and disconnect the phase indicator.

Unit Voltage
Electrical power to the unit must meet stringent requirements for the unit to operate
properly. Total voltage supply and voltage imbalance between phases should be
within the following tolerances.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage!
During installation, testing, servicing and troubleshooting of this
product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical components.
Have a qualified licensed electrician or other individual who has been
properly trained in handling live electrical components perform these
tasks. Failure to follow all electrical safety precautions when exposed to
live electrical components could result in death or serious injury.
Voltage Supply
Measure each leg of supply voltage at all line voltage disconnect switches. Readings
must fall within the voltage utilization range shown on the unit nameplate. If voltage
on any leg does not fall within tolerance, notify the power company to correct this
situation before operating the unit. Inadequate voltage to the unit will cause control
components to malfunction and shorten the life of relay contacts and compressor
motors.
Voltage Imbalance
Excessive voltage imbalance between phases in a three-phase system will cause
motors to overheat and eventually fail. Maximum allowable imbalance is 2 percent.
Voltage imbalance is defined as 100 times the maximum deviation of the three
voltages (three phase) subtracted from the average (without regard to sign), divided
by the average voltage.
Example:
If the three voltages measured at the line voltage fused disconnect are 221 volts, 230
volts and 227 volts, the average would be:
The percentage of imbalance is then:
In the example above 221 is used because it is the farthest from the average. The 2.2
percent imbalance that exists exceeds maximum allowable imbalance by 0.2 percent.
This much imbalance between phases can equal as much as 20 percent current
imbalance with a resulting increase in winding temperature that will decrease
compressor motor life.
Control Power Supply
A panel-mounted control power transformer is standard on all units.
Modules Connections for Interconnecting Wiring

Chilled Water Flow Switch
CH530 has an input that accepts a contact closure from a proof-of-flow device such
as a flow switch or pressure switch. When this input does not prove flow within a
fixed time relative to transition from Stop to Auto modes of the chiller, or if the flow is
lost while the chiller is in the Auto mode of operation, the chiller will be inhibited from
running by a non-latching diagnostic
The installer must provide a flow sensing device or a pump interlock. Refer also to
the field wiring diagrams attached to the inside of the control panel door.
Chilled Water Pump Control
CH530 has an evaporator water pump output relay that closes when the chiller goes
into the Auto mode. The contact is opened to turn off the pump in the event of most
diagnostics to prevent the build up of pump heat.
Condenser Water Loss of Flow Protection
CH530 has an input that accepts a contact closure from a proof-of-flow device such
as a flow switch or pressure switch. When this input does not prove flow within a
fixed time from when the pump is commanded on, or if the flow is lost while a
compressor is running, the chiller will be inhibited from running by a diagnostic.
The installer must provide a flow sensing device or a pump interlock. Refer also to
the field wiring diagrams attached to the inside of the control panel door.
Condenser Water Pump Starter
CH530 has a condenser water pump output relay that closes to indicate when the
condenser water pump should be started and opens to indicate when the pump
should stop. If condenser pumps are arranged in a bank with a common header, the
output can be used to control an isolation valve and/or signal another device that an
additional pump is required.
Programmable Relays
CH530 provides a flexible alarm or chiller status indication to a remote location
through a hard wired interface to a dry contact closure. Four relays are available for
this function, and they are provided (generally with a Quad Relay Output LLID) as part
of the Alarm Relay Output Option.
The events/states that can be assigned to the programmable relays are listed in the
following table.
Table 12 Chiller Events/Status Descriptions
Event/State Description
Alarm - Latching This output is true whenever there is any active latching diagnostic that targets the Chiller,
Circuit, or any of the Compressors on a circuit.
Alarm - Auto Reset This output is true whenever there is any active non-latching diagnostic that targets the
Chiller, Circuit, or any of the Compressors on a circuit.
Alarm This output is true whenever there is any active latching or non-latching diagnostic that tar-
gets the Chiller, Circuit, or any of the Compressors on a circuit.
Warning This output is true whenever there is any active latching or non-latching informational diag-
nostic that targets the Chiller, Circuit, or any of the Compressors on a circuit.
Chiller Limit Mode This output is true whenever the chiller has been running in one of the limit modes (Con-
denser, Hot Evaporator Start, Demand or Compressor Inhibit) continuously for the debounce
time. A given limit or overlapping of different limits must be in effect continuously for the
debounce time prior to the output becoming true. It will become false if no limits are
present for the debounce time.
Compressor Running The output is true whenever any compressors are running.
Maximum Capacity The output is true whenever the chiller has reached maximum capacity continuously for the
debounce time. The output is false when the chiller does not have all its available compres-
sors running continuously for the debounce time. See the Maximum Capacity specification
for more information.
50 CGWF-SVX01A-EN
The CH530 Service Tool (TechView) is used to install and assign any of the above
listed events or status to each of the four relays provided with this option.
The default assignments for the four available relays are listed below.
External Auto/Stop
CH530 accepts an isolated contact closure input to request STOP or AUTO command
modes from a remote device. The contact closure status is monitored by a CH530
binary input. Contact closure represents an AUTO request, and contact opening
represents a STOP request.
Compressor Inhibit/ High Ambient Operation
Compressor Inhibit prevents the second compressor on all circuits from running
which lowers the overall power consumption and cooling capacity of the chiller. This
feature may be invoked by an optional hardware input or a BAS command.
Reduce Power Consumption: The 20 - 60 Ton chiller does not have a current limit
feature. This feature can be used to lower power consumption by limiting the number
of compressors available to the chiller.
High Ambient Operation: To minimize high pressure cutouts in high ambient
conditions, a thermostat can be connected to the external input to prevent operation
of the 2nd compressor on each circuit.
Condenser Water Temperature Sensor Connections
When the optional condenser water temperature monitoring feature is specified, a
pair of sensors are installed in the entering and leaving condenser water boxes.
Chilled Water Rest
The MP shall reset the chilled water temperature setpoint based on either return
water temperature, or outdoor air temperature. The Return Reset option is standard,
Outdoor Reset is optional.
The following shall be selectable:
1. Reset Type Setpoint.
2. RESET RATIO Setpoints.
3. START RESET Setpoints.
4. MAXIMUM RESET Setpoints.
When the chiller is running, if any type of CWR is enabled, the MP will step the CWS
toward the desired CWS' at a rate of 1 degree F every 5 minutes until the Active CWS
equals the desired CWS'. When the chiller is not running the CWS shall be fully reset
immediately (within one minute). The chiller will then start at the Differential to Start
value above a fully reset CWS or CWS' for Outdoor, Return, and Constant Return
Reset.

External Chilled Water Setpoint Option
The MP provides inputs that will accept either 4-20 mA or 2-10 VDC signals to set the
chilled water setpoint. This is not a reset function; the input level defines the
setpoint. This input is used with Generic BAS installations.
The MP shall accept either a 2-10 VDC or 4-20 mA analog input suitable for customer
connection to set the unit external chilled water setpoint (ECWS).
The 2-10 VDC and 4-20 mA shall each correspond to an ECWS range with both
min_ECWS and max_ECWS configurable in Service Tool.
Ice Machine Control Option
CH530 accepts a contact closure input to initiate Ice Building. When in the ice
building mode, the chiller will be fully loaded and will continue to operate until the ice
contacts open or the return water temperature reaches the Ice Termination Setpoint.
If terminated on return setpoint, CH530 will not allow the chiller to restart until the ice
making contact is opened.
Ice building operation will be indicated by an "Ice Building" operation mode that can be
displayed at the unit or communicated over the communications link.
Ice Building Command
This is the command to enter ice building. This setpoint is defined as an Auto/On
setpoint. There are four possible ways to set this, through DynaView or TechView as
the Front Panel Ice Building Command, through an external interface switch closure
to a low voltage binary input, and through a Tracer interface. Setting this to On will
command the application into ice building if ice building is enabled.
Ice Building Enable/Disable setting
This setting will Enable or Disable the ice building option. It can be set through the
DynaView or TechView. This setting does not start or stop ice building. The Ice
Building Command starts and stops ice building.
Ice Building Termination setpoint
This setpoint has three possible sources DynaView or TechView as the Front Panel
Ice Termination Setpoint or Tracer. This setpoint has a range of 20F to 32F with a
default of 27F.
Communications Interface options
Optional Tracer Communications Interface
This option allows the Tracer CH530 controller to exchange information (e.g.
operating setpoints and Auto/Standby commands) with a higher-level control device,
such as a Tracer Summit or a multiple-machine controller. A shielded, twisted pair
connection establishes the bi-directional communications link between the Tracer
CH530 and the building automation system.

CCAF - Fan Control
On air cooled chillers, heat is removed from the evaporator water loop and released to
ambient air by the condenser. In order to control condensing conditions, the volume
of airflow is changed to compensate for ambient air temperature and cooling load.
Starting and stopping condensing fans controls airflow.
Outdoor Air Temperature Control
Condenser fan staging is on a per circuit basis and is a function of outdoor ambient
temperature and load. The load parameter used is the number of compressors
running per circuit. Fans for the various units are staged as shown in the following
figures. In the chart, there are areas where more than 1 choice is possible, 1 or 2 fans
for example. These are areas of hysteresis in which the current number of fans
running is maintained. The number of fans running will depend upon the direction
entered. When the circuit is not running the number of fans running will be initialized
to 0. When the first compressor starts on a circuit, the minimum number of fans shall
be started based on the outdoor air temperature, i.e. if outdoor air temperature is in a
hysteresis range, use the smallest number for that range. There should always be at
least one fan running when a compressor is running. Staging compressors is a
horizontal movement on the fan control charts. If this movement is into a hysteresis
area, then the previous number of fan stages is used.
Each refrigeration circuit has two relay outputs for fan control. Depending upon how
many fans are connected to each circuit, there may be either two or three air flow
levels. The number of fan stages is shown on the following table for each unit size.
For 20 and 40 ton chillers, the first fan relay will be on whenever a compressor is
running. The second relay will be energized when more condenser cooling is required
and de-energized when less cooling is required. The 25, 30, 50, and 60 ton chillers
have 3 stages of fan flow. The first relay will be connected to one fan. The second
relay will be connected to two fans. For these chillers the first relay will not always be
energized. When two fans are needed the first relay will be de-energized at the same
time the second relay will be energized. Energizing both relays turns on 3 fans.
There is a 5 second delay between turning the fans on and starting the first
compressor.

CH530 Communications Overview
The Trane CH530 control system that runs the chiller consists of several elements:
The main processor collects data, status, and diagnostic information and commu-
nicates commands to the starter module and the LLID (for Low Level Intelligent
Device) bus. The main processor has an integral display (DynaView).
Higher level modules (e.g. starter) exist only as necessary to support system level
control and communications. The starter module provides control of the starter
when starting, running, and stopping the chiller motor. It also processes its own
diagnostics and provides motor and compressor protection.
Low level intelligent device (LLID) bus. The main processor communicates to
each input and output device (e.g. temperature and pressure sensors, low voltage
binary inputs, analog input/output) all connected to a four-wire bus, rather than
the conventional control architecture of signal wires for each device.
The communication interface to a building automation system (BAS).
A service tool to provide all service/maintenance capabilities.
Main processor and service tool (TechView) software is downloadable from
www.Trane.com. The process is discussed later in this section under TechView
Interface.
DynaView provides bus management. It has the task of restarting the link, or filling in
for what it sees as missing devices when normal communications has been
degraded. Use of TechView may be required.
The CH530 uses the IPC3 protocol based on RS485 signal technology and
communicating at 19.2 Kbaud to allow 3 rounds of data per second on a 64-device
network. A typical four-compressor RTAC will have around 50 devices.
Most diagnostics are handled by the DynaView. If a temperature or pressure is
reported out of range by a LLID, the DynaView processes this information and calls
out the diagnostic. The individual LLIDs are not responsible for any diagnostic
functions. The only exception to this is the Starter module.
NOTE: It is imperative that the CH530 Service Tool (TechView) be used to facilitate
the replacement of any LLID or reconfigure any chiller component. TechView is
discussed later in this section.
Controls Interface
DynaView
Each chiller is equipped with the DynaView interface. DynaView has the capability to
display additional information to the advanced operator including the ability to adjust
settings. Multiple screens are available and text is presented in multiple languages as
factory-ordered or can be easily downloaded online.
TechView
TechView can be connected to the DynaView module and provides further data,
adjustment capabilities, diagnostics information, downloadable software, and
downloadable languages.
58 CGWF-SVX01A-EN
Controls Interface
DynaView Interface
The display on DynaView is a 1/4 VGA display with a resistive touch screen and an
LED backlight. The display area is approximately 4 inches wide by 3 inches high
(102mm x 60mm).
Key Functions
In this touch screen application, key functions are determined completely by software
and change depending upon the subject matter currently being displayed. The basic
touch screen functions are outlined below.
CAUTION
Equipment Damage!
Putting excessive pressure on the touch screen could cause damage. It
takes less that 15 lbs of force to break the screen.
Radio Buttons
Radio buttons show one menu choice among two or more alternatives, all visible. (the
AUTO button in Figure 22.) The radio button model mimics the buttons used on old-
fashioned radios to select stations. When one is pressed, the one that was previously
pressed pops out and the new station is selected. In the DynaView, model the
possible selections are each associated with a button. The selected button is
darkened, presented in reverse video to indicate it is the selected choice. The full
range of possible choices as well as the current choice is always in view.
Spin Value Buttons
Spin values are used to allow a variable setpoint to be changed, such as leaving water
setpoint. The value increases or decreases by touching the increment (+) or
decrement (-) arrows.

Controls Interface
Action Buttons
Action buttons appear temporarily and provide the user with a choice such as Enter or
Cancel.
File Folder Tabs
File folder tabs are used to select a screen of data. Just like tabs in a file folder, these
serve to title the folder/screen selected, as well as provide navigation to other
screens. In DynaView, the tabs are in one row across the top of the display. The folder
tabs are separated from the rest of the display by a horizontal line. Vertical lines
separate the tabs from each other. The folder that is selected has no horizontal line
under its tab, thereby making it look like a part of the current folder (as would an open
folder in a file cabinet). The user selects a screen of information by touching the
appropriate tab.
Display Screens
Basic Screen Format
The basic screen format appears as:
The file folder tabs across the top of the screen are used to select the various display
screens.
The main body of the screen is used for description text, data, setpoints, or keys
(touch sensitive areas). The Chiller Mode is displayed here.
The double up arrows cause a page-by-page scroll either up or down. The single
arrow causes a line by line scroll to occur. At the end of the page, the appropriate
scroll bar will disappear.
A double arrow pointing to the right indicates more information is available about the
specific item on that same line. Pressing it will bring you to a sub-screen that will
present the information or allow changes to settings.
The bottom of the screen (Fixed Display) is present in all screens and contains the
following functions. The left circular area is used to reduce the contrast/viewing
angle of the display. The right circular area is used to increase the contrast/viewing
angle of the display. The contrast may require re-adjustment at ambient temperatures
significantly different from those present at last adjustment.
The other functions are critical to machine operation. The AUTO and STOP keys are
used to enable or disable the chiller. The key selected is in black (reverse video). The
chiller will stop when the STOP key is touched and after completing the Run Unload
mode.

Diagnostics
The following diagnostic table contains all the diagnostics possible. Not all data is
available unless tech view is connected.
Code: Three digit hexadecimal code used on all past products to uniquely identify
diagnostics.
Diagnostic Name: Name of Diagnostic and its source. Note that this is the exact
text used in the User Interface and/or Service Tool displays.
Severity: Defines the severity of the above effect. Immediate means immediate
shutdown of the effected portion, Normal means normal or friendly shutdown of the
effected portion, Special Mode means a special mode of operation (limp along) is
invoked, but without shutdown, and Info means an Informational Note or Warning is
generated.
Persistence: Defines whether or not the diagnostic and its effects are to be manually
reset (Latched), or can be either manually or automatically reset (Nonlatched).
Criteria: Quantitatively defines the criteria used in generating the diagnostic and, if
nonlatching, the criteria for auto reset. If more explanation is necessary a hot link to
the Functional Specification is used.
Reset Level: Defines the lowest level of manual diagnostic reset command which
can clear the diagnostic. The manual diagnostic reset levels in order of priority are:
Local and Remote. A diagnostic that has a reset level of Local, can only be reset by a
local diagnostic reset command, but not by the lower priority remote Reset command
whereas a diagnostic listed as Remote reset can be reset by either.
Diagnostic Name Severity Persistence Criteria Reset
Level
BAS Communication Lost Special NonLatch The BAS was setup as "installed" at the MP and the Comm 3 llid lost
communications with the BAS for 15 continuous minutes after it had
been established. Refer to setpoint arbitration to determine how
setpoints and operating modes may be effected by the comm loss.
The chiller follows the value of the Tracer Default Run Command
which can be previously written by Tracer and stored nonvolatilely by
the MP (either use local or shutdown).
Remote
BAS Failed to Establish
Communication
Special NonLatch The BAS was setup as "installed" and the BAS did not communicate
with the MP within 15 minutes after power-up. Refer to setpoint
arbitration to determine how setpoints and operating modes may be
effected.
Remote
Check Clock Warning Latch The real time clock had detected loss of its oscillator at some time in
the past. Check / replace battery? This diagnostic can be effectively
cleared only by writing a new value to the chiller's time clock using the
TechView or DynaView's "set chiller time" functions.

Inspect unit for shipping damage and any shortages of materials. Report any damages or shortages to the carrier.
Unit Location and Mounting
Inspect the location desired for installation and verify adequate service access clearances.
Provide drainage for evaporator and condenser (CGWF only) water.
Remove and discard all shipping materials (cartons, etc.)
Install optional neoprene isolators, if required.
Level unit and secure it to the mounting surface.
Unit
Check compressor oil level(s). Oil should be visible in the compressor oil level sight glass.
Open (backseat) the liquid line and discharge service valve(s).
Check all water temperature sensors for proper installation
Electrical Wiring
Inspect all wiring connections. Connections should be clean and tight.
Check power supply voltage to the unit at the main power fused disconnect switch. Voltage must be within the voltage
utilization range.
Check compressor phase-sequencing.
Check Interlock Wiring, including chilled water pump control, chilled water flow switch, condenser water pump,
condenser water flow switch, external auto stop. For further details refer to the field wiring diagram.
Unit Piping
Flush all unit water piping before making final connections to unit.
Connect water piping to the evaporator and condenser (CGWF only).
Install pressure gauges and shutoff valves on the water inlet and outlet to the evap. and cond.
Install water strainers in the entering chilled water and condenser water lines.
Install balancing valves (discretionary) and flow switches in the leaving chilled and condenser water lines.
Install drains with shutoff valves or drain plugs on the evaporator and condenser.
Vent the chilled water and condenser water systems at the high points of the system piping.

CGWF-SVX01A-EN 79
Unit Start-up
Unit Power Up
Checking Operating Conditions
Once the unit has been operating for about 10 minutes and the system has stabilized,
check operating conditions and complete the checkout procedures that follow.
Recheck evaporator water and condenser (CGWF) water flows and pressure
drops. These readings should be stable at proper levels.
Check suction pressure and discharge pressure of the unit.
Discharge pressures - take at discharge line service valve backseat port. Normal dis-
charge pressures are:
CCAF units 200 to 360 psig
CGWF units 175 to 275 psig
Suction pressures - take at Schraeder fitting provided on the suction line. Normal suc-
tion pressures are:
40-60 F LWT = 50-85 psig
15-39 F LWT = 25-50 psig.
Check compressor oil levels. At full load, oil level should be visible in the oil level
sight glass on the compressor. If it is not, add or remove oil as required.
Check the liquid line sight glasses. Refrigerant flow past the sight glasses should
be clear. Bubbles in the liquid line indicate either low refrigerant charge or exces-
sive pressure drop in the liquid line. Such a restriction can often be identified by a
noticeable temperature differential on either side of the restricted area. Frost
often forms on the outside of the liquid line at this point also.

Unit Start-up
The system may not be properly charged although the sight glass is clear. Also
consider superheat, subcooling and operating pressures.
Once oil level, amp draw and operating pressures have stabilized, measure sys-
tem suction superheat.
Measure system liquid line subcooling.
If operating pressure, sight glass, superheat and subcooling readings indicate
refrigerant shortage, gas-charge refrigerant into each circuit. Refrigerant shortage
is indicated if operating pressures are low and subcooling is also low.
If suction and discharge pressures are low but subcooling is normal, no refriger-
ant shortage exists. Adding refrigerant, will result in overcharging.
Add refrigerant with the unit running by charging through the Schraeder valve
between the expansion valve and the evaporator refrigerant inlet until operating condi-
tions are normal.
CAUTION
Compressor Damage!
To prevent compressor damage, do not allow liquid refrigerant to enter
the suction line.
To prevent compressor damage and insure full cooling capacity, use
refrigerants specified on the unit nameplate only.
If operating conditions indicate an overcharge, slowly (to minimize oil loss)
remove refrigerant at the liquid line service valve. Do not discharge refrigerant
into the atmosphere.
If the unit is equipped with hot gas bypass, check regulating and solenoid valve
for proper operation. Valve operating setpoints for 44-45 F evaporator leaving
water temperature are:
Full open @ 61 psig,
Full closed @ 69 psig
For other conditions, adjust the valve so that it is full open at normal suction pressure
when the unit is operating at minimum cooling level.
If the remote condenser (CCAF) is equipped with low ambient dampers, check for
proper actuator and blade travel in relation to condensing pressure. Damper oper-
ating setpoints are:
170 psig = Dampers fully closed;
250 psig = Dampers fully open.
Once proper unit operation is confirmed, inspect for debris, misplaced tools., etc.
Secure control panel doors in place.
System Superheat
Normal superheat for each circuit is 10-12 F at full load. If superheat is not within this
range, adjust expansion valve superheat setting. Allow 5-10 minutes between adjust-
ments for the expansion valve to stabilize on each new setting.
System Subcooling
Normal subcooling for each circuit is 10 to 15 F at full load. If subcooling for either cir-
cuit is not in this range check superheat for the circuit and adjust, if required. If super-
heat is normal but subcooling is not, contact a qualified service technician.

Unit Maintenance
Periodic Maintenance
Perform all maintenance procedures and inspections at the recommended intervals.
This will prolong the life of the equipment and reduce the possibility of costly equip-
ment failures.
Use an "Operator's Log" such as the one in this section to record a weekly "operating
conditions history" for this unit. The operating log for this unit can be a valuable diag-
nostic tool for service personnel. By noticing trends in the operating conditions, the
operator can often foresee and prevent problem situations before they become seri-
ous.
If the unit does not operate properly during maintenance inspections, refer to "Trouble
Analysis".
Weekly Maintenance
Once the unit has been operating for about 10 minutes and the system has stabilized,
check operating conditions and complete the checkout procedures that follow.
Check compressor oil levels. Oil should be visible in the sight glass when the
compressor is running.
Operate the compressors for a minimum of three to four hours when
checking oil level, and check level every 30 minutes. If oil is not at proper
level after this period, have a qualified service representative add or
remove oil as required.
Check suction pressure and discharge pressure.
Check the liquid line sight glasses.
If operating pressures and sight glass conditions seem to indicate refrigerant
shortage, measure system superheat and system subcooling.
If operating conditions indicate an overcharge, slowly (to minimize oil loss)
remove refrigerant at the liquid line service valve.
Inspect remote condenser coils for cleanliness (CCAF only) and clean if required.
Refer to the condenser manufacturer's recommendations.
Inspect the entire system for unusual conditions. Use the operating log in this
section to record a weekly operating conditions history for the unit. A complete
operating log is a valuable diagnostic tool for service personnel.
Monthly Maintenance
Perform all weekly maintenance procedures.
Measure and record system superheat.
Measure and record system subcooling.
Annual Maintenance
Perform all weekly and monthly maintenance procedures.
Have a qualified service technician check the setting and function of each control
and inspect the condition of and replace compressor and control contactors if
needed.
If chiller is not piped to drain facilities, make sure drain is clear to carry away sys-
tem water.
Drain water from condenser (CGWF) and evaporator and associated piping sys-
tems. Inspect all piping components for leakage, damage, etc. Clean out any in-
line water strainers.
84 CGWF-SVX01A-EN
Unit Maintenance
Inspect evaporator and condenser tubes and clean, if needed.
Clean and repaint any corroded surface.
Inspect the expansion valve sensing bulbs for cleanliness. Clean if required.
Sensing bulbs must make good contact with suction lines and be properly insu-
lated.
Clean remote condenser coils (CCAF only). Refer to the condenser manufac-
turer's recommendations.
Maintenance Procedures
This section describes specific maintenance procedures which must be performed as
a part of the normal maintenance program for this unit. Be certain that electrical
power to the unit is disconnected before performing these procedures.
Cleaning the Condenser (CGWF Units Only)
Water available for condensing frequently contains minerals or other contaminants
that collect on the inside of the condenser tubes as carbonate scale. Scale accumula-
tion will accelerate with high condensing temperatures and use of water with high
mineral content. Cooling towers collect dust and foreign material which also deposits
on the condenser tubes, forming sludge.
To maintain maximum efficiency, the condenser must remain as free of these depos-
its as possible. Even a very thin layer on the inside tube surfaces reduces the heat
transfer ability of the condenser. Indications of scale deposits are decreased water
flow through condenser, reduced temperature differential between entering and leav-
ing condensing water and abnormally high condensing temperatures.
These are two accepted methods of cleaning condenser tubes. They are mechanical
cleaning and chemical cleaning.
Mechanical Cleaning
The mechanical cleaning method is used primarily to remove sludge and other loose
material from the condenser tubes. Use the following procedure.
1. Turn off chiller and condenser water supply.
2. Break piping connections at the unions.
3. Remove the condenser heads.
4. Run a round nylon brush from end to end through the tubes to loosen deposits.
5. Flush the tubes with water. Then inspect tubes for scale accumulation. If there is
no scale in the tubes reassemble condenser and piping.
6. If there is scale in the tubes, proceed with the chemical cleaning procedure.
Chemical Cleaning
Chemical cleaning is the most satisfactory method of cleaning scale from condenser
tubes. With this treatment, scale is dissolved and flushed away by circulating a chem-
ical solution through the tubes and headers.
Internal condenser components are composed of copper, steel and cast iron. With
this information, water treatment firms will be able to recommend a suitable chemical
for this purpose. If water treatment is not available, consult a chemical supply house.
Cleaning the Evaporator (Chiller)
The evaporator water system is part of a closed loop and should not accumulate an
appreciable amount of scale or sludge. If it is determined that the chiller is fouled,
first attempt to dislodge any foreign material by back flushing the system several
times. If this does not work satisfactorily, chemically clean the chiller using the proce-
dures outlined in "Chemical Cleaning" for the condenser.
CGWF-SVX01A-EN 85
Unit Maintenance
CAUTION
Evaporator Damage!
Evaporator internal components are composed of steel, polypropylene
and copper. Do not use an acidic type cleaning agent that will damage
these components.
Proper Water Treatment!
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.
Water Treatment
The use of untreated or improperly treated water in these units may result in the for-
mation of scale, erosion, corrosion, algae or slime. It is recommended that the ser-
vices of a qualified water treatment specialist be engaged to determine what
treatment, if any, is required. The Trane Company assumes no responsibility for
equipment failure that results from the use of untreated or improperly treated water.
