Location Requirements
Sound Considerations
The most effective form of
acoustical isolation is to locate the
unit away from any sound sensitive
area. Structurally transmitted sound
can be reduced by elastomeric
vibration eliminators. Spring isolators
are not recommended. Consult an
acoustical engineer in critical sound
applications.
Foundation
For maximum isolation effect, water
lines and electrical conduit should
also be isolated. Wall sleeves and
rubber isolated piping hangers can be
used to reduce the sound transmitted
through water piping. To reduce the
sound transmitted through electrical
conduit, use flexible electrical
conduit.
EU and Local codes on sound
emissions should always be
considered. Since the environment
in which a sound source is
located affects sound pressure,
unit placement must be carefully
evaluated. Consult an acoustical
engineer for critical applications.
Provide rigid, non-warping mounting
pads or a concrete foundation of
sufficient strength and mass to
support the applicable operating
weight (i.e. including completed
piping, and full operating charges
of refrigerant, oil and water). Refer
to the chapter on Unit Dimensions/
Weights for unit operating weights.
Once in place, the unit must be
level with 3 mm over its length and
width. Trane is not responsible for
equipment problems resulting from an
improperly designed or constructed
foundation.
Clearances
Provide enough space around the
unit to allow the installation and
maintenance personnel unrestricted
access to all service points. Refer
to submittal drawings for the unit
dimensions, to provide sufficient
clearance for the opening of control
panel doors and unit service.
Refer to the chapter on Unit
Dimensions/Weights for minimum
clearances. In all cases, local codes
which require additional clearances
will take precedence over these
recommendations.
Rigging
Refer to weights tables for typical
unit lifting weights. Refer to the
rigging label attached to the unit for
further details.
Lifting Procedure
Refer to the lifting label affixed to the
unit. Lifting beam crossbars MUST
be positioned so lifting cables do not
contact the sides of the unit. Adjust
as necessary for even level lift.
1. Use the four rigging points which
are built into the unit.
2. Slings and a spreader bar are to
be provided by the rigger.
3. The minimum lifting capacity of
each sling as well as the spreader
bar must be equal or higher than
the tabulated unit shipping weight.
4. Caution: this unit must be lifted
and handled with care. Avoid
shocks while handling.
