Features and Benefits
Sliding Fan Deck
Convenient access to the fan motor and fan wheels for maintenance and serviceability is made in
part of the easy-slide design of the unit ventilator fan board, Figure 5. The fan board assembly
offers hassle free access to the contractor or maintenance technician. As an added benefit, Trane’s
unit ventilator includes Electronically Commutated Motors (ECM) as standard.
Energy Efficiency
Trane has a commitment to providing premium quality products that has led to the exclusive use
of Electronically Commutated Motors (ECM) in all unit ventilator models. These brushless DC
motors incorporate the latest technology for optimized energy efficiency, acoustical abatement,
maintenance free and extended motor life. Each motor has a built-in microprocessor that allows
for programmability, soft ramp-up, better airflow control, and serial communication.
• Trane units equipped with ECMs are significantly more efficient than a Permanent Split
Capacitor (PSC) motor.
• Lower operating costs on average of 50 percent (versus a PSC motor).
• The Reduced FLA option allows units to ship with a nameplate FLA rating much lower than a
typical ECM unit.
Filters
Trane unit ventilators utilize an off-the-shelf filter design to reduce or eliminate local stocking of
filters in the school. See “General Data,” p. 25 for standard filter sizes.
Note: High efficiency options, MERV 8 and MERV 13, are available. These filters provide greater
resistance and dust holding capabilities.
Hinged Control Box
The hinged control box design maintains easy access to the electrical for connection while
supporting less potential for damage on the job site from the different construction trades.
