A. GENERAL
WARNING
!
This information is intended for use by individuals posses-
sing adequate backgrounds of electrical and mechanical
experience. Any attempt to repair a central air conditioning
product may result in personal injury and or property
damage. The manufacturer or seller cannot be responsible
for the interpretation of this information, nor can it assume
any liability in connection with its use.
NOTICE:
Trane has always recommended installing Trane approved
matched indoor and outdoor systems.
The benefits of installing approved matched systems are
maximum efficiency, optimum performance and best
overall system reliability.
WARNING
!
These units use R-410A refrigerant which operates at 50 to
70% higher pressures than R-22. Use only R-410A approved
service equipment. Refrigerant cylinders are painted a
“Rose” color to indicate the type of refrigerant and may
contain a “dip” tube to allow for charging of liquid refriger-
ant into the system. All R-410A systems use a POE oil that
readily absorbs moisture from the atmosphere. To limit this
“hygroscopic” action, the system should remain sealed
whenever possible. If a system has been open to the atmo-
sphere for more than 4 hours, the compressor oil must be
replaced. Never break a vacuum with air and always
change the driers when opening the system for component
replacement. For specific handling concerns with R-410A
and POE oil, reference Retrofit Bulletin TRN-APG02-EN.
Checkfor transportationdamage afterunit isuncrated.
Reportpromptly, tothe carrier, any damage found to theunit.
To determine the electrical power requirements of the unit,
refer to the nameplate of the unit. The electrical power
available must agree with that listed on the nameplate.

B. LOCATION AND PREPARATION
OF THE UNIT
1. When removing unit from the pallet, notice the tabs on
the basepan. Remove tabs by cutting with a sharp tool as
shown in Figure 2 (see page 2).
2. The unit should be set on a level support pad at least as
large as the unit base pan, such as a concrete slab. If this
is not the application used please refer to application
bulletin “TraneAPB2001-02”.
3. The support pad must NOT be in direct contact with any
structure. Unit must be positioned a minimum of 12"
from any wall or surrounding shrubbery to insure
15 FT. ABOVE UNIT — UNRESTRICTED
CAUTION
!
UNIT CONTAINS R-410A REFRIGERANT!
R-410A OPERATING PRESSURE EXCEEDS THE
LIMIT OF R-22. PROPER SERVICE EQUIPMENT IS
REQUIRED. FAILURE TO USE PROPER SERVICE
TOOLS MAY RESULT IN EQUIPMENT DAMAGE OR
PERSONAL INJURY.
SERVICE
USE ONLY R-410A REFRIGERANT AND
APPROVED POE COMPRESSOR OIL.

adequate airflow. Clearance must be provided in front of
control box (access panels) & any other side requiring
service access to meet National Electrical Code. Also,
the unit location must be far enough away from any
structure to prevent excess roof run-off water from
pouring directly on the unit. Do not locate unit(s) close
to bedroom(s).
4. The top discharge area must be unrestricted for at least
five (5) feet above the unit.
5. When the outdoor unit is mounted on a roof, be sure the
roof will support the unit’s weight. Properly selected
isolation is recommended to prevent sound or vibration
transmission to the building structure.
6. The maximum length of refrigerant lines from outdoor to
indoor unit should NOT exceed sixty (60) feet.
7. Ifoutdoor unitis mountedabove theair handler,maxi-
mum lift should not exceed sixty (60) feet (suction line).
If air handler is mounted above condensing unit, maxi-
mum lift should not exceed sixty (60) feet (liquid line).
NOTE:
Refer to “Refrigerant Piping Software” Pub. No. 32-3312-0*
(the position of the * denotes the latest revision number).
8. Locate and install indoor coil or air handler in accor-
dance with instruction included with that unit.
C. INSTALLING REFRIGERANT LINES
CAUTION
!
If using existing refrigerant lines make certain that all joints
are brazed, not soldered.
Condensing units have provisions for braze connections.
Pressure taps are provided on the service valves of outdoor
unit for compressor suction and liquid pressures.

NOTE:
Use care to make sure that no moisture enters pressure tap
port, while wet rag is being used.
NOTE:
Precautions should be taken to avoid heat damage to
basepan during brazing. It is recommended to keep the
flame directly off of the basepan.
7. Use a Dry Nitrogen Purge and BrazingAlloy without
flux when brazing the field line to the copper factory
connection. Flow dry nitrogen into either valve pressure
tap port, thru the tubing and out the other port while
brazing.
8. Braze using accepted good brazing techniques.

SUBCOOLING CHARGING IN COOLING ABOVE 55°F OD AMBIENT
The Trane company has always recommended installing
Trane approved matched indoor and outdoor systems.
All Trane split systems areARI rated with only TXV indoor
systems.
The benefits of installing approved indoor and outdoor split
systems are maximum efficiency, optimum performance and
the best overall system reliability.
The following charging methods are therefore
prescribed for systems with indoor TXVs.
1. Subcooling (inthe coolingmode) is theonly
recommendedmethod of charging above
55°F ambient temperatures.
2. For best results - the indoor temperature
should be kept between 70°F to 80°F.Add
system heat if needed.
3. At start-up, or whenever charge is
removed or added, the system must be
operated for a minimum twenty (20)
minutes to stabilize before accurate
measurements can be made.
4. Measure Liquid Line Temperature and
Refrigerant Pressure at service valves.
5. Determine total refrigerant line length,
and height (lift) if indoor section is above
the condenser.
6. Determine the Design Subcool Charging
Temperature from the unit nameplate.
7. Locate this value in the appropriate col-
umn of the Subcooling Charging Table.
Locate your liquid line temperature in the
left column of the table, and the
intersecting liquid line pressure under
your nameplate subcool value column.Add
refrigerant to raise the pressure to match
