Conversion Package Inspection
Before installing the new purge, compare the data on the
purge nameplate with the corresponding ordering and
shipping information to verify that the proper conversion
package was shipped.
If a thorough inspection of the conversion package reveals
damage or material shortages, file a claim with the carrier
immediately. Specify the extent and type of damage
found, and notify the appropriate Trane sales office.
Do not install a damaged purge unit without the Trane
sales representative’s approval!
Note: The purge’s sealed refrigeration system can be
easily bench tested through temporary connection
of 110 Vac power to the purge at the time of
inspection. See the unit wiring diagram for
