Installation and Maintenance Manual

Pre-Installation
Receiving and Handling
Upon delivery, inspect all components for possible
shipping damage. See “Receiving Checklist” (below) for
detailed instructions. Trane recommends leaving units
and accessories in their shipping packages/skids for
protection and ease of handling until installation.
Shipping Package
UniTrane fan-coil and Force-Flo cabinet heaters ship in
individual cartons for handling and storage ease. Each
carton has tagging information such as the model number,
sales order number, serial number, unit size, piping
connections, and unit style to help properly locate the unit
in the floor plan. If specified, the unit will ship with tagging
designated by the customer.
Receiving Checklist
Complete the following checklist immediately after
receiving unit shipment to detect possible shipping
damage.
Jobsite Storage
This unit is intended for indoor use only. Store the unit
indoors to protect the unit from damage due to the
elements. If indoor storage is not possible, make the
following provisions for outdoor storage:
1. Place the unit(s) on a dry surface or raised off the
ground to assure adequate air circulation beneath unit
and to assure that no portion of the unit contacts
standing water at any time.
2. Cover the entire unit with a canvas tarp only. Do not
use clear, black or plastic tarps as they may cause
excessive moisture condensation and equipment
damage.
Installation Preparation
Before installing the unit, consider the following unit
location recommendations to ensure proper unit
operation.
1. Clearances: Allow adequate service and code
clearances as recommended in “Service Access” (the
next section). Position the unit and skid assembly in its
final location.
2. Structural support: Ensure
the structural support is
strong enough to adequately support the unit. The
installer is responsible for supply support rods for
installation of ceiling units.
3. Level: Verify the floor or foun
dation is level. Shim or
repair as necessary. To ensure proper unit operation,
install the unit level (zero tolerance) in both horizontal
axes. Failure to level the unit properly can result in
condensate management problems, such as standing
water inside the unit.
4. Condensate line & piping: Consider coil piping and
condensate drain
requirements. Verify condensate line
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage w/Capacitors!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote
disconnects and discharge all motor start/run
capacitors before servicing. Follow proper lockout/
tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be
inadvertently energized. For variable frequency drives
or other energy storing components provided by Trane
or others, refer to the appropriate manufacturer’s
literature for allowable waiting periods for discharge of
capacitors. Verify with an appropriate voltmeter that all
capacitors have discharged. Failure to disconnect
power and discharge capacitors before servicing could
result in death or serious injury.
For additional information regarding the safe discharge of
capacitors, see PROD-SVB06A-EN
Inspect individual cartons before accepting. Check for
rattles, bent carton corners, or other visible indications
of shipping damage.
If a unit appears damaged, inspect it immediately
before accepting the shipment. Manually rotate the fan
wheel to ensure it turns freely. Make specific notations
concerning the damage on the freight bill. Do not
refuse delivery.
Inspect the unit for concealed damage before it is
stored and as soon as possible after delivery. Report
concealed damage to the freight line within the allotted
time after delivery. Check with the carrier for their
allotted time to submit a claim.
Do not move damaged material from the receiving
location. It is the receiver’s responsibility to provide
reasonable evidence that concealed damage did not
occur after delivery.
Do not continue unpacking the shipment if it appears
damaged. Retain all internal packing, cartons, and
crate. Take photos of damaged material.
Notify the carrier’s terminal of the damage
immediately by phone and mail. Request an immediate
joint inspection of the damage by the carrier and
consignee.
Notify your Trane representative of the damage and
arrange for repair. Have the carrier inspect the damage
before making any repairs to the unit.
Compare the electrical data on the unit nameplate with
the ordering and shipping information to verify the
correct unit is received.
