Overview
Warranty
A. Warranty is based on the general terms and conditions of the manufacturer. The warranty is void if the equipment is
repaired or modified without the written approval of the manufacturer, if the operating limits are exceeded or if the control
system or the electrical wiring is modified. Damage due to misuse, lack of maintenance or failure to comply with the
manufacturer’s instructions or recommendations is not covered by the warranty obligation. If the user does not conform
to the rules of this manual, it may entail cancellation of warranty and liabilities by the manufacturer.
B. Warranty is twelve (12) months as from the date of first start up at installation place or eighteen (18) months after
delivery at the project or other delivery location indicated by the customer. The date the unit is operated for the first time
means the date reported in the “1st start up form” contained into the “unit log book”. This form should be filled in and
sent, within 8 days from the start up, to Trane.
C. The warranty is valid if all the installation and start-up instructions have been adhered to (both those which may have
come from Trane and those coming from current practice), if the “1st start up form” has been filled in and sent to the
Trane after sales department.
D. The warranty is subject to any faults or defects being reported within eight days from their discovery. The warranty will
only be applied if and when the purchaser suspends use of the equipment as soon as a defect has been found.
E. The warranty is valid if the first running of the unit is carried out by a Trane authorized assistance center.
F. The warranty is subject to regular maintenance of the unit which is appropriately indicated in the “unit log book” locat-
ed inside the electrical panel.
G. Warranty automatically ends in case of payments not fulfilled, non-performance of the contract and even if the units
show tampering without TRANE written approvals.
Receiving the unit
On receiving the unit, it is up to the customer to check that there is no obvious damage or pieces missing. If this is so, an
immediate complaint must be made to the carrier for damage or for not-delivery and the Receiving Card to be found
inside the unit electrical panel must be filled in. Photographic evidence must be provided for macroscopic damage. The
card must be sent to Trane within 8 days of receiving the goods: if it is not sent back or delayed, the complaint will not be
accepted.
Factory inspection
Units are inspected in the factory, in appropriate areas, in accordance with internal procedures. Each performance test
carried out on the unit is possible only if the same conditions are reproduced and maintained (charge consistency,
constant temperature and evaporation - condensation and recovery capacity, quality and tolerance of the measuring
instruments etc.) in the test rooms.
The inspection conditions are those indicated by the customer in the ordering phase: if not otherwise specified, reference
should be made to the nominal performance indicated in the product catalog in force at the date of the Confirmation of
the Order.
Improper uses
The unit is projected and built up to grant the maximum safety in its proximity, as well as to resist to the aggressive
environmental conditions. The fans are protected by grilles. Residual risks are indicated with warning labels.

Definitions
Owner:
The legal representative of the company, body or natural person who owns the plant in which the Trane unit is installed:
he or she is responsible for the control and respect of all the safety regulations indicated in this manual as well as the
national ones in force.
Installer:
The legal representative of the company appointed by the owner to position and hydraulically, electrically etc. connect the
Trane unit to the plant: he or she is responsible for moving and the correct installation of the unit in accordance with the
indications in this manual and with the national regulations in force.
Operator:
A person authorised by the owner to carry out all the operations of regulation and control on the Trane unit which are
specifically mentioned in this manual. He or she should keep to actions described in the manual and limit his or her action
to what is explicitly allowed.
Technician:
A person who is directly authorised by Trane or, secondarily, for all EU countries except for Italy, by the distributor of the
Trane product, under their own responsibility, to carry out all ordinary or extraordinary maintenance operations, as well as
regulations, controls, repairs and parts replacement which may be necessary during the lifetime of the unit.
Access to dangerous areas
The access to the unit dangerous areas is usually obstructed through protection panels, which are removable, by using a
tool. Axial fans are protected with accident prevention grilles.
Finned coil, for units not equipped with coil protection grilles, is completely accessible with danger for cuts and
abrasions. In these cases technicians and operators must be aware about this risk.
For all the units which allow access to the cooling piping or to the packaged condensing coils with fins, without security
gratings (optional) or closing panelling, the following precautions must be taken
mark the areas with contact risks.
apply warning signs
The danger zone must be of a suitable size to avoid any contact, even accidental contact.
In the presence of safety valves without relevant remote controls, the operating area must be of a size which considers
a range of action of the discharge flow of 3 metres.
Trane declines any responsibility for damage to things and unauthorised personnel in case of absence of clear and
static limiting systems of the risk areas and of the relevant warning and danger signs.
General precautions

The operator must only intervene on the unit controls. He or she must not open any panels except for the one which gives
access to the control module.
The installer must only intervene on the connections between the plant and the machine. He or she must not open any
machine panels nor carry out any commands.
The following precautions should be made when approaching or working on the unit:
• do not wear jewellery, baggy clothes or any other accessory which can get caught up.
• Use appropriate protection (gloves, glasses etc.) when using an open flame (welding) or compressed air.
• If the unit is located in a closed environment, wear hearing protection.
• before disconnecting, removing tubes, filters, joints or other line parts intercept the connection tubes, empty them until

Safety data R410a
Toxicity
Not important
Risks for skin touching
Splashes or sprinkles can cause chill burns. The risk of absorptions through the skin is not relevant.
Those refrigerants could take some lightly irritating effects and in liquid stage they have a strong skinning effect. In this case it
is necessary to rinse with fresh water the contaminated parts of the skin
The refrigerant in liquid stage in contact with wet clothes causes freezing and adherence to the skin. In this case it is neces-
sary to take off the contaminated clothes to avoid freezing. Contact a doctor in case of irritation of the contaminated parts.
Risks for contact with the
eyes
Vapors don’t take any effect. Splashes or sprinklers can cause chill burns. In those cases it is necessary to rinse eyes with
water or with solution for ocular washings for 10 minutes. The intervention of a doctor is needed.
Risks for ingestion
Should it happen, it causes chill burns. It does not cause vomiting. The person must be kept awake. It is needed to rinse the
mouth with fresh water and to drink almost 0,25 liters. The intervention of a doctor is useful.
Risks for inhalation
High concentration of vapours in air can lead to anaesthetic effects up to a loss of conscience. Long exposures could give
rise to cardiac arrhythmia and sometimes even to death.
High concentrations can create a reduction of oxygen in air, with consequent possibility of suffocation. Should it happen the
person must be taken to the open air and let him to take a rest.
Administer oxygen if needed. In case the breathing has interrupted or become irregular, it is necessary to apply the artificial
breathing. In case of cardiac arrest a heart massage must be applied. Contact a doctor immediately.
Conditions to avoid
Use in presence of exposed flames, and of high levels of humidity.
Dangerous reactions
Possibility of violent reactions with the sodium, the potassium, the barium and with other alkaline substances, incompatible
materials and all the alloys containing more than 2% of magnesium.
Protection wearing - Behav-
ior in case of losses or
leaks
Wear protection apparel and self respirators. Insulate the source of the loss, if this operation can be done in safety condi-
tions. Small quantitative of refrigerant escaped at liquid state can be allowed to evaporate only if the room is well ventilated.
In case of great losses ventilate the room immediately. Plug the loss with sand, soil or other absorbent material; avoid that
the liquid refrigerant can enter in water-drainages or losing pools.
Disassembly
The best procedure is the recovery and the recycle. If this is not possible the refrigerant must be conferred to an accredited
system for its destruction in order to neutralize acid and toxic by-products.
