Pre-Installation
Inspection
When the unit is delivered, verify that it is the correct unit
and that it is properly equipped.
Inspect all exterior components for visible damage. Report
any apparent damage or material shortage to the carrier
and make a “unit damage” notation on the carrier’s
delivery receipt. Specify the extent and type of damage
found and notify the appropriateTrane Sales Office.
Do not proceed with installation of 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 the individual pieces of the shipment before
accepting the unit. Check for obvious damage to the
unit or packing material.
• Inspect the unit for concealed damage as soon as
possible after delivery and before it is stored.
Concealed damage must be reported within 10 days
after receipt.
• If concealed damage is discovered, stop unpacking the
shipment. Do not remove damaged material from the
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 carrier’s terminal of the damage
immediately, by phone and by mail. Request an
immediate, joint inspection of the damage with the
carrier and the consignee.
• Notify theTrane sales representative and arrange for
repair. Do not repair the unit, however, until damage is
inspected by the transportation representative.
Storage
Extended storage of the unit prior to the installation
requires the following precautions:
Store the unit in a secured area, to avoid intentional
damages.
Close the suction, discharge and liquid-line isolation
valves.
At least every three months (quarterly), check the pressure
in the refrigerant circuits to verify that the refrigerant
charge is intact. If it is not, contact a qualified service
organization and the appropriateTrane sales office.
Note: If the unit is stored before servicing near a
construction site it is highly recommended to
protect micro-channel coils from any concrete
dust. Failure to do so may considerably reduce
reliability of the unit.

• Heaters alone will provide low ambient protection down to -4°F (-20°C), but will NOT protect the
evaporator from freezing as a result of charge migration. Therefore, it is required that water pump
control be used in conjunction with heaters.
• Heaters are factory-installed on the evaporator and water piping and will protect them from freezing.
• Install heat tape on all water piping, pumps, and other components that may be damaged if exposed to freezing
temperatures. Heat tape must be designed for low ambient temperature applications. Heat tape selection should
be based on the lowest expected ambient temperature.
• Tracer™ UC800 controller can start the pump when freezing conditions are detected. For this option the pump must

• Freeze protection can be accomplished by adding sufficient glycol to protect against freezing below the lowest
ambient expected.

waterbox includes a vent, drain and fittings for
temperature control sensors. A factory installed flow
switch is installed on the supply waterbox in the
evaporator inlet connection.
Evaporators are insulated with 3/4 inch closed cell
insulation.
Evaporator shell heaters and waterbox heaters with
thermostat are provided to help protect the evaporator
from freezing at ambient temperatures down to
-4°F (-20°C).
Note: A separate field supplied 120V power source is
required to power the evaporator freeze protection.

The oil level in the sump can be measured to give an

indication of the system oil charge. Follow the procedures
below to measure the level.
1. Run the unit as near to full load as possible for a
minimum of 30 minutes. For an accurate reading, 40 or
more minutes at full load with normal/steady
discharge superheat readings and no limits/warnings
is recommended. Assessing oil charge after running at
minimum or low loads may lead to an inaccurate
reading.
2. Cycle the compressor offline.
3. Let the chiller sit (powered, but offline) to allow the oil
separator heater to boil off the refrigerant that may be
in the oil separator. An initial assessment of the oil
separator level may be made after heater has been ON
for 30 minutes, but oil charge adjustments should not
be made without allowing the oil heaters to run for a
minimum of 4 hours.

Installation Completion Check Sheet and Request for Trane Service
Important: A copy of this completed form must be submitted to theTrane service agency that will be responsible for the start-
up of the chiller. Start-up will NOT proceed unless applicable items listed in this form have been satisfactorily
completed. See unit IOM RTAF-SVX001*-EN for detailed installation instructions.
To: Trane Service Office:

S.O. Number: Serial Numbers:
Job/Project Name:
Address:
The following items are being installed and will be completed by:
Important: Start-up must be performed byTrane or an agent ofTrane specifically authorized to perform start-up ofTrane®
products. Contractor shall provideTrane (or an agent ofTrane specifically authorized to perform start-up) with
notice of the scheduled start-up at least two weeks prior to the scheduled start-up.
Check boxes if the task is complete or if the answer is “yes.”

1. Chiller
 Installation meets foundation requirements.
 In place and piped.
 Isolation pads or elastomeric pads installed (optional).
2. Refrigerant Pressure Check
 PRIOR to water being added to the system, use gauges to verify positive pressure in the evaporator and condenser.
Lack of pressure could indicate a system leak. When charging in the factory, approximately 95% of the refrigerant
charge is isolated in the evaporator, and the other 5% is contained in the condenser and compressor. In the event that
no pressure is present, contact localTrane service.
Note: Verification must be done by gauges. Do NOT rely only on values from unit transducers.
3. Piping
 Water piping flushed before making final connections to the system
Chilled water piping connected to:
 Evaporator
 Air handling units
 Pumps
 Flow switch or flow proving device installed
 Strainer installed in entering evaporator water piping and cleaned
 Water supply connected to filling system
If unit has brine:
 Verify type and concentration is correct per unit submittal.
 Calculate and record freeze point of the solution. Freeze Point: ____________________
 Systems filled
 Pumps run, air bled from system
 Relief valve ventilation piping installed (if applicable)
 Flow balancing valves installed in leaving chilled water
 Gauges, thermometers and air vents installed on both sides of evaporator
4. Wiring
 Wire size per submittal and NEC
 Full power available, and within utilization range
 External interlocks (flow switch, pumps auxiliary, etc.)
 Chilled water pump (connected and tested)
 115 Vac power available for service tools (recommended)
 All controls installed and connected
5. Testing
 Dry nitrogen available for pressure testing
 Trace gas amounts of R-134a or R-513A available for leak testing (if required)
RTAF-ADF001B-EN 1
6.  Refrigerant on job site (if nitrogen charge option, model number digit 16 = 3 or 4, is chosen)
7.  Systems can be operated under load conditions
8. Heaters
 If unit was factory charged (model number digit 16 = 1 or 2), energize heaters for 24 hours prior to start up.
Important: It is required that chiller heaters are energized for a minimum of 24 hours prior to start up.
Therefore, chiller should have power for this amount of time beforeTrane Service arrives to do start-up.
 If unit has nitrogen charge (model number digit 16 = 3 or 4), contactTrane Service for unit charging prior to start-up.
9. Owner awareness
 Does the owner have a copy of the MSDS for refrigerant?
Note: Additional time required to properly complete the start-up and commissioning, due to any incompleteness of the
installation, will be invoiced at prevailing rates.
This is to certify that theTrane® equipment has been properly and completely installed, and that the applicable items listed above
have been satisfactorily completed.
Checklist completed by: ______________________________________________________________________________________________
Signed: _____________________________________________________________________ Date: _______________________________
In accordance with your quotation and our purchase order number __________________, we will therefore require the presence
ofTrane service on this site, for the purpose of start-up and commissioning, by __________________ (date).
Note: Minimum two-week advance notification is required to allow scheduling of the chiller start-up.
