Trane TAM4A0A18S11ED Assembly instructions

18-GJ05D1-12A-EN
ALL phases of this installation must comply with NATIONAL, STATE AND LOCAL CODES
Important: This Document is customer property and is to remain with this unit. Please return to service information
pack upon completion of work.
Important: These instructions do not cover all variations
in systems nor provide for every possible contingency to
be met in connection with the installation. Should further
information be desired or should particular problems
arise which are not covered sufficiently for the pur-
chaser’s purposes, the matter should be referred to your
installing dealer or local distributor.
Note: The manufacturer recommends installing ONLY
AHRI approved, matched indoor and outdoor systems.
Some of the benefits of installing approved matched
indoor and outdoor split systems are maximum efficien-
cy, optimum performance, and the best overall system
reliability.
Note: All AHRI ratings use a 90 second fan off delay.
Use your branded thermostat or separate relay to enable
this delay.
Note: Condensation may occur on the surface of the air
handler when installed in an unconditioned space. When
units are installed in unconditioned spaces, verify that
all electrical and refrigerant line penetrations on the air
handler are sealed completely.
Important: TAM4A0C60S51 air handler applied in
downflow or horizontal configurations should not exceed
2000 CFM. Airflow above 2000 CFM could result in
water blow-off. For verification, see airflow table.
Important: The TAM4 air handlers will only use the fol-
lowing internal electric heaters:
BAYEAAC04BK1, BAYEAAC04LG1
BAYEAAC05BK1, BAYEAAC05LG1
BAYEAAC08BK1, BAYEAAC08LG1

Section 1. Safety Information
WARNING
!
SAFETY HAZARD! This information is intended for
use by individuals possessing 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 manufac-
turer or seller cannot be responsible for the interpreta-
tion of this information, nor can it assume any liability
in connection with its use.
LIVE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS! During in-
stallation, testing, servicing, and troubleshooting of this
product, it may be necessary to work with live electrical
components. Failure to follow all electrical safety pre-
cautions when exposed to live electrical components
could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
!
CAUTION
!
CORROSION HAZARD! To prevent shortening its
service life, the air handler should not be used during
the finishing phases of construction. The low return air
temperatures can lead to the formation of condensate.
Condensate in the presence of chlorides and fluo-
rides from paint, varnish, stains, adhesives, cleaning
compounds, and cement creates a corrosive condition
which may cause rapid deterioration of the cabinet and
internal components.

ful of sharp edges on equipment or any cuts made on
sheet metal while installing or servicing. Personal injury
may result.
CAUTION
!
CAUTION
!
HAZARDOUS VAPORS! Do not install an air
handler with a non-ducted return in the same closet,
alcove, or utility room as a fossil fuel device. Hazardous
vapors can be distributed throughout the conditioned
space and equipment damage can result.
Important: Panel damage can occur with prolonged
exposure to POE lubricants. Air handler front panels
that come in contact with POE oil must be washed
immediately with soapy water.
WARNING
!
This product can expose you to chemicals includ-
ing lead, which are known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive
harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.

Section 2. Unit Design
2.1 Cabinet Penetration
Important: Due to the unique design of this unit,
which allows the electrical wiring to be routed within
the insulation, do not screw, cut, or otherwise punc-
ture the unit cabinet in any location other than the
ones illustrated.
Important: Under no conditions should metal strap-
ping be attached to the unit to be used as support
mechanisms for carrying or suspension purposes.
2.2 Panel Removal
The unit contains four (4) access panels: Blower/Fil-
ter, Coil, Line Set, and Heater.
The Blower/Filter panel is removed using thumb
screws.
1. Turn thumb screws on Blower/Filter panel.
2. Pull top of panel out, away from cabinet.
3. Lift panel up out of channel.
4. Set aside.
Screws can be drilled
into bottom of unit.
(1/2” max. screw
length)
(Typical all sides)
Screws, saw cuts, and other
penetrations are allowed in
the blower section for low
voltage wiring or installation
of Side Return Kit.
(Typical both sides)
Screws are allowed up to 3- 3/4”
from the top of the cabinet
(heater compartment).
(Typical both sides)
Screws for flange kit
attachment are allowed
along the interior of
the cabinet (see arrows)
(Typical all sides)
No penetrations
allowed.
(Typical all sides)
Screws allowed only
in the first 3/4” of front
bottom of unit (in
cross member
)

The Coil, Line Set, and Heater panels are removed
using Phillips head screws.
#3 Size Phillips
Coil and Heater panels must be removed prior to re-
moving the Line Set panel.
To remove Coil Panel:
1. Turn screws on Coil panel.
2. Pull top of panel out, away from cabinet.
3. Pull panel up and out of channel.
4. Set aside.
To remove Heater Panel:
1. Turn screws on Heater panel.
2. Pull panel straight out, away from cabinet.
3. Set aside.
Removal of the Line Set panel is required for all refrig-
erant line brazing and some condensate line assembly
depending on your orientation.

Section 3. Unit Preparation
3.1 Prepare The Unit For Installation
STEP 1 - Check for damage and report promptly to
the carrier any damage found to the unit.
Note: If the unit must be transported in a horizontal
position, it must be laid on its back (marked “REAR”
on carton).
Note: After the unit is removed from the carton,
release pressure from the coil to verify coil is
pressurized and leak free.
Note: Remove the cardboard from the bottom of the
blower. Cut the tie wrap and remove the foam block
located at the motor.

Note: If the unit must be transported in a horizontal
position, it must be laid on its back (marked “REAR”
on carton).
Note: To reassemble cabinet, follow the steps in
reverse order. Ensure electrical connections are
secure and the plug clips are engaged.
4.1 Disassemble cabinet for installation in tight areas or as needed.
Section 4. Optional Cabinet Disassembly
STEP 1 - Remove all four front panels. See Section
2.2.
STEP 2 - Remove the two screws on the seal bar and
pull the seal bar straight out.
STEP 3 - Disconnect all wiring connections routed to
the blower assembly.

STEP 4 - Slide Blower assembly out of unit using
built-in blower support channels and set aside.
Note: Remove the cardboard from the bottom of
the blower. Cut the tie wrap and remove the foam
block located at the motor.

STEP 6 - Slide Coil assembly out of unit using built-
in coil support channels and set aside.
STEP 7 - Use a 5/16 Allen wrench on the locking
mechanism on each side of the bottom half of the
cabinet to loosen the locking mechanism. The locks
loosen by turning counter-clockwise approximately
3/4 of a turn.
STEP 5 - Disconnect wires to the EEV motor and
sensors inside the coil assembly. Cut the wire ties
on those wire harnesses.
Note: If cut, wire ties that held the sensor must
be replaced after the coil is placed back into the
cabinet.

9
STEP 8 - Lift the Coil section up and away from the
Blower section. Set aside.
Note: When separating the two cabinet
pieces, make sure the gasket remains intact.

10
STEP 9 - For extremely tight spaces where the
cabinet needs to be rotated through a small opening,
remove the top panel. Use a manual driver to avoid
stripping screw holes.
STEP 10 - Continue preparation by following the
proper carrying procedures shown in Section 5.
