General  
Information  
To ensure proper lubrication and  
prevent refrigerant from condensing  
in the oil tank, a 750-watt heater is  
immersed in the oil tank and is used  
to warm the oil while the unit is off.  
When the unit starts, the oil heater is  
de-energized. This heater energizes  
as needed to maintain 140° to 145° F  
(60-63°C) when the chiller is not  
running.  
A dual eductor system is used to  
reclaim oil from the suction cover  
and the evaporator, and deposit it  
back into the oil tank. These eductors  
use high pressure condenser gas to  
draw the oil from the suction cover  
and evaporator to the eductors and  
then discharged into the oil tank. The  
evaporator eductor line has a shut off  
valve mounted by the evaporator and  
ships closed. Open two turns if  
necessary.  
Oil and Refrigeration Pump  
Compressor Lubrication System -  
A schematic diagram of the  
compressor lubrication system is  
illustrated in Figure 12.  
Oil is pumped from the oil tank (by a  
pump and motor located within the  
tank) through an oil pressure-  
regulating valve designed to maintain  
a net oil pressure of 18 to 22 psid. It  
is then filtered and sent to the oil  
cooler located in the economizer and  
on to the bearings. From the  
When the chiller is operating, the  
temperature of the oil tank is typically  
115° to 160°F (46-72°C). The oil return  
lines from the thrust and journal  
bearings, transport oil and some seal  
leakage refrigerant. The oil return  
lines are routed into a manifold  
under the motor. Gas flow exits the  
top of the manifold and is vented to  
the Evaporator. A vent line solenoid  
is not needed with the refrigerant  
pump. Oil exits the bottom of the  
manifold and returns to the tank.  
Separation of the seal leakage gas in  
the manifold keeps this gas out of the  
tank.  
Liquid refrigerant is used to cool the  
oil supply to both the thrust bearing  
and journal bearings. On refrigerant  
pump units the oil cooler is located  
inside the economizer and uses  
refrigerant passing from the  
condenser to evaporator to cool the  
oil. Oil leaves the oil cooler and  
flows to both the thrust and journal  
bearings.  
bearings, the oil drains back to the  
manifold under the motor and then  
on to the oil tank.  
CAUTION  
Surface Temperatures!  
MAY EXCEED 150°F. Use caution  
while working on certain areas of  
the unit, failure to do so may result  
in minor or moderate injury.  
Motor Cooling System  
Compressor motors are cooled with  
liquid refrigerant, see Figure 12.  
The refrigerant pump is located on  
the front of the oil tank (motor inside  
the oil tank). The refrigerant pump  
inlet is connected to the well at the  
bottom of the condenser. The  
connection is on the side where a  
weir assures a preferential supply of  
liquid. Refrigerant is delivered to the  
motor via the pump. Motor  
refrigerant drain lines are routed to  
the condenser.

which sets the external base loading

to the Tracer or external base load  
setpoint, providing that the base load  
setpoint is not equal to 0 (or out of

panel current limit setpoint is used.  
During base loading, all limits are  
enforced with the exception of  
current limit. The human interface  
displays the message “Unit is  
Running Base Loaded”. Hot Gas  
Bypass is not run during base  
loading. If base loading and ice  
making are commanded  
Base Loading Control  
Algorithm:  
This feature allows an external  
controller to directly modulate the  
capacity of the chiller. It is typically  
used in applications where virtually  
infinite sources of evaporator load  
and condenser capacity are available  
and it is desirable to control the  
loading of the chiller. Two examples  
are industrial process applications  
and cogeneration plants. Industrial  
process applications might use this  
feature to impose a specific load on  
the facility’s elecrical system.  
Cogeneration plants might use this  
feature to balance the system’s  
heating, cooling and electrical  
generation.  
Base loading can occur via Tracer,  
External signal, or front panel.  
Tracer Base Loading:  
Current Setpoint Range:  
(20 - 100) percent RLA  
Requires Tracer and Optional Tracer  
Communications Module (LLID)  
The Tracer commands the chiller to  
enter the base load mode by sending  
the base load mode request. If the  
chiller is not running, it will start  
regardless of the differential to start  
(either chilled water or hot water). If  
the chiller is already running, it will  
continue to run regardless of the  
differential to stop (either chilled  
water or hot water), using the base  
load control algorithm. While the unit  
is running in base loading, it will  
report that status back to the Tracer  
by setting “Base Load Status = true”  
in the Tracer Status Byte. When the  
Tracer removes the base load mode  
request (sets the bit to 0). The unit  
will continue to run, using the  
All chiller safeties and adaptive  
control functions are in full effect  
when Base Loading control is  
enabled. If the chiller approaches full  
current, the evaporator temperature  
drops too low, or the condenser  
pressure rises too high, Tracer CH530  
Adaptive Control logic limits the  
loading of the chiller to prevent the  
chiller from shutting down on a  
safety limit. These limits may prevent  
the chiller from reaching the load  
requested by the Base Loading  
signal.  
simultaneously, ice making takes  
precedence.  
An alternative and less radical  
approach to Base Loading indirectly  
controls chiller capacity. Artifically  
load the chiller by setting the chilled  
water setpoint lower than it is  
capable of achieving. Then, modify  
the chiller’s load by adjusting the  
current limit setpoint. This method  
provides greater safety and control  
stability in the operation of the chiller  
because it has the advantage of  
leaving the chilled water temperature  
control logic in effect. The chilled  
water temperature control logic  
responds quicker to dramatic system  
changes, and can limit the chiller  
loading prior to reaching an Adaptive  
Control limit point.

algorithm, and will turn off, only  
when the differential to stop has been  
satisfied.  
Base Loading Control is basically a  
variation of the current limit  
algorithm. During base loading, the  
leaving water control algorithm  
provides a load command every 5  
seconds. The current limit routine  
may limit the loading when the  
current is below setpoint. When the  
current is within the deadband of the  
setpoint the current limit algorithm  
holds against this loading command.

control logic prevents the  
compressor from energizing during  
free cooling. Liquid refrigerant then  
drains (by gravity) from the storage  
tank into the evaporator and floods  
the tube bundle. Since the  
temperature and pressure of the  
refrigerant in the evaporator are  
higher than in the condenser (i.e.,  
because of the difference in water  
temperature), the refrigerant in the  
evaporator vaporizes and travels to  
the condenser. Cooling tower water  
causes the refrigerant to condense,

the condensed refrigerant initially

General  
Information  
The DynaViewMain Processor  
provides the hot water temperature  
control mode as standard. The  
leaving condenser water temperature  
is controlled to a hot water setpoint  
between 80 and 140°F (26.7 to 60°C)  
The leaving evaporator water  
temperature is left to drift to satisfy  
the heating load of the condenser. In  
this application the evaporator is  
normally piped into a lake, well, or  
other source of constant temperature  
water for the purpose of extracting  
heat.  
An external binary input to select  
external hot water control mode is on  
the EXOP OPTIONAL module 1A18  
terminals J2-3 to J2-4 (ground). Tracer  
also has a binary input to select  
chilled water control or hot water  
temperature control.  
Hot Water control  
Occasionally CTV chillers are  
selected to provide heating as a  
primary mission. With hot water  
temperature control, the chiller can  
be used as a heating source or  
cooling source. This feature provides  
greater application flexibility. In this  
case the operator selects a hot water  
temperature and the chiller capacity  
is modulated to maintain the hot  
water setpoint. Heating is the primary  
mission and cooling is a waste  
product or is a secondary mission.  
This type of operation requires an  
endless source of evaporator load  
(heat), such as well or lake water. The  
chiller has only one condenser.  
There is no additional leaving hot  
water temperature cutout; the HPC  
and condenser limit provide for high  
temperature and pressure protection.  
In hot water temperature control the  
softloading pulldown rate limit  
operates as a softloading pullup rate  
limit. The setpoint for setting the  
temperature rate limit is the same  
setpoint for normal cooling as it is  
for hot water temperature control.  
In hot water temperature control  
mode all the limit modes and  
diagnostics operate as in normal  
cooling with one exception; The  
leaving condenser water temperature  
sensor is an MMR diagnostic when  
in hot water temperature control  
mode. (It is an informational warning  
in the normal cooling mode.)  
Note: Hot water temperature control  
mode does not convert the chiller to  
a heat pump. Heat pump refers to the  
capability to change from a cooling-  
driven application to a heating-driven  
application by changing the  
refrigerant path on the chiller. This is  
impractical for centrifugal chillers as  
it would be much easier to switch  
over the water side.  
The hot water temperature control  
feature is not designed to run with  
HGBP, AFD, free cooling, or ice  
making.  
The factory set PID tuning values for  
the leaving water temperature control  
are the same settings for both normal  
cooling and hot water temperature  
control.  
In the hot water temperature control  
mode the differential-to-start and  
differential-to-stop setpoints are used  
with respect to the hot water setpoint  
instead of with the chilled water  
setpoint.  
This is NOT heat recovery. Although  
this feature could be used to recover  
heat in some form, there is a second  
heat exchanger on the condenser  
side.  
UCP provides a separate entry at the  
DV to set the hot water setpoint.  
Tracer is also able to set the hot  
water setpoint. In the hot water mode  
the external chilled water setpoint is  
the external hot water setpoint; that  
is, a single analog input is shared at  
the 1A16 –J2-1 to J2-3 (ground)

addition of a heat recovery cycle, heat

condenser is piped into a heat circuit  
rather than to the cooling tower.  
During the heat recovery cycle, the  
unit operates just as it does in the

cooling load heat is rejected to the  
heating water circuit rather than to

The reason for all diagnostic must be  
determined and corrected. Do not  
reset and restart the chiller as this  
can cause a repeat failure. Contact  
local Trane Service for assistance as  
necessary.  
A Manual Override indicator (shares  
space with the Alarms key) alerts the  
operator to the presence of a manual  
override. An Alarm will take  
precedence of the Manual, until the  
reset of active alarms, at which point  
the Manual indicator would reappear  
if such an override exists.  
Diagnostic Screen  
The diagnostic screen is accessible  
by touching the Alarms enunciator.  
When an alarm is present, the alarm  
enunciator is present next to the Stop  
key. A flashing “alarm” indicates a  
machine shutdown and a non  
flashing “alarm” indicates an  
informational message.  
After corrective action, the chiller can  
be reset and/or restarted. In the case  
of “Unit Shutdown - Reset Required”  
diagnostic types, the chiller will have  
to be manually reset through the  
Diagnostics alarm menu.  
Temperature settings can be  
expressed in F or C, depending on

Interprocessor  
Communication  
Node Zero:  
Inter Processor  
Node number zero is is a special  
node assignment that is reserved for  
devices that are service selected. A  
LLID communicating on node  
address zero will also communicate  
on an assigned node address. A LLID  
will only communicate on node  
address zero if it is service selected.  
Communications IPC3  
When using Tracer CH530, you will  
not be required to know all the  
details about the structure of the IPC3  
bus. However this page gives  
detailed information about the  
system for those of you that are really  
interested in how it works. The IPC3  
protocol is based on RS485 signal  
technology. IPC3 was designed to be  
very efficient. It communicates at 19.2  
Kbaud. This data rate will allow for  
three rounds of data per second on a  
64 device network. A typical CVHE  
control network will have less than  
50 devices. IPC3 allows for a  
Binding:  
Binding is the process of assigning a  
node number and functional IDs to a  
LLID. Binding is a simple process:  
1. Service selecting the LLID with a  
magnet.  
2. Assigning functional IDs to that  
LLID with TechView.  
maximum of 255 devices per  
network.  
Functional Identification:  
When each LLID on the bus is bound,  
its inputs and outputs are given a  
functional ID. The Frame LLIDS have  
only one functional ID, but most  
Panel LLIDs have more than one  
functional ID. A dual high voltage  
binary input will have two functional  
IDs, a quad relay output has four  
functional IDs.  
IPC3 Definitions:  
Bus Management:  
The DynaViewprovides the bus  
management having the task of  
restarting the link, or filling in for  
missing nodes when the normal  
communication has been degraded.  
This involves reassigning node  
addresses and filling in for nodes  
that are off-line. The DynaView™  
always has a node number of 01.  
The DynaViewMain Processor with  
its IPC3 Bus communicates to the  
control panel devices, unit mounted  
devices, and any remote devices on  
the IPC3 bus network. The various  
devices are discussed in the  
Node Assignment:  
When a unit is factory  
commissioned, the LLIDS must have  
their node addresses assigned to  
them for storage in non-volatile  
memory. The node addresses are  
normally assigned sequentially  
during factory commissioning.

Output Option 1A15:  
With the Enhanced Protection EPRO  
option, a condenser pressure  
transducer is installed and the  
pressure is measured.  
On standard machines the Percent  
Condenser Pressure Indication  
Output is based on the Saturated  
Condenser Refrigerant and a  
temperature to pressure conversion  
is made.  
Refrigerant Pressure Output can be  
configured at commissioning to  
correspond to either A) the absolute  
condenser pressure, or B) the  
differential pressure of the evaporator  
to condenser pressures.  
If the Condenser Pressure sensor  
goes out of range due to either an  
open or short, a pressure sensor  
diagnostic will be called and the  
output will go to end of range low.  
That is, for an out of range low on the  
sensor, the output will be limited to  
2.0 VDC. For an out of range high on  
the sensor, the output will be limited  
to 2.0 VDC.  
If the Condenser Saturated  
Temperature goes out of range due to  
an open or short, a pressure sensor  
diagnostic will be called and the  
output will also go to the respective  
out of range value. That is, for an out  
of range low on the sensor, the  
output will be limited to 2.0 VDC. For  
an out of range high on the sensor,  
the output will be limited to 10.0  
VDC.  
This vdc output is located at 1A15 –  
J2 – 4 (+) to J2-6 (Ground)  
The Voltage DC Output can source a  
maximum of 22 mA of current.  
This output is Voltage DC only, 4-

This signal corresponds to a

commissioning of this feature. This  
relationship can be altered using the  
service tool if required.  
The Minimum Delta Pressure  
Calibration setting has a range of 0-  
400 psid (0-2758 kPa) in increments of based on the Saturated Evaporator

The ECWS or ECLS LLID will report  
either a very low or very high value  
when there is either an open or short  
in the system.  
External Chilled Water  
External Current Limit Setpoint  
The External Current Limit is an  
option that allows the current limit  
setpoint to be changed from a remote  
location. The External Limit Setpoint  
is found on 1A16 J2-2 to J2-3  
(ground), 2-10 vdc and 4-20 ma each  
correspond to a 40 to 100 percent  
RLA range. UCP limits the maximum  
ECLS to 100 percent. Default 40 to  
100%, adjustable via service tool.  
Setpoint (ECWS)  
The External Chilled Water Setpoint  
allows the chilled water setpoint to  
be changed from a remote location.  
The External Chilled Water Setpoint  
is found on 1A16 J2-5 to J2-6  
(Ground). 2-10 vdc and 4-20 ma  
correspond to a 34°F to 65°F (-17.8 to  
18.3°C) CWS range. Default 34°F to  
65°F, adjustable via service tool.  
When an open or short is detected  
(or the signal is severely beyond the  
valid range) on the 2-10 VDC or 4-  
20mA ECLS input and when the  
ECLS option is installed, an  
informational diagnostic shall be  
generated. The active current limit set  
point will default to the panel (or next  
priority) current limit set point. Open  
and short criteria will be set as close  
to the end of the range values as  
possible and still reliably detect an  
open and short.  
Note: To use external inputs, the  
setpoint source setting on DynaView  
must be set to “Ext/FP.”

Control Sequence  
of Operation  
When less than 2.5 seconds remain  
before compressor start, a starter test  
is conducted to verify contactor  
states prior to starting the  
compressor. The following test or  
start sequence is conducted for  
‘‘Wye-Delta’’ starters: Also refer to  
Figure 24.  
G. If no diagnostics are generated in  
the above tests, the Stop Relay (2A1-  
J10) is closed for 2 seconds and the  
Start Relay (2A1-J8) is closed to  
energize the start contactor (2K1). The  
shorting contactor (2K3) has already  
been energized from (F) above. The  
compressor motor (4M1) starts in the  
‘‘Wye’’ configuration, an auxiliary  
contact (2K1-AUX) locks in the start  
contactor (2K1) coil.  
L. The run contactor (2K2) is closed  
through auxillary contacts on the  
shorting contactor (2K3), shorting out  
the transition resistors. This places  
the compressor motor in the ‘‘Delta’’  
configuration and the starter module  
waits to look for this transition for  
about 2.3 seconds through the  
closure of the transition complete  
contacts 2K2-Aux at module 2A1-J12  
input)  
A. Test for transition complete  
contact open (2A1-J12-2) –160 to 240  
msec. An MMR diagnostic will be  
generated if the contact is closed.  
H. After the compressor motor has  
accelerated and the maximum phase  
current has dropped below 85  
percent of the chiller nameplate RLA  
for 1.5 seconds, the starter transition  
to the ‘‘Delta’’ configuration is  
initiated.  
M. The starter module must now  
confirm closure of the transition  
complete contact (2K2-AUX) within  
2.5 seconds after the shorting relay  
(2A1-J4) is opened. Finally, the  
transition relay (2A1-J2) is opened de-  
energizing the transition contactor  
(2K4) and the compressor motor  
starting sequence is complete. An  
MMR diagnostic will be generated if  
the transition complete contacts (2K2-  
AUX) do not close. A diagram of this  
test or start sequence is shown in  
Figure 24.  
B. Delay time - 20 msec.  
C. Close start contactor (2K1) and  
check for no current - 500 msec. If  
currents are detected, the MMR  
diagnostic ‘‘Starter Fault Type I’’ is

J. The transition contactor (2K4) is  
closed through relay 2A1-J2, placing  
the transition resistors (2R1, 2R2, and  
2R3) in parallel with the compressor  
motor windings. The run relay (2A1-  
J6-3 to 1) is closed.  
D. Stop relay (2A1-J10-3 to 1) closes

F. Close shorting contactor, (2K3) and  
check for no current - one second. If  
currents are detected the MMR  
diagnostic ‘‘Starter Fault Type II’’ is  
generated. (Starter Integrity test)  
K. The shorting contactor (2K3) is  
opened through the opening of relay  
2A1-J4 100 msec after the closure of  
the transition relay 2A1-J2, and the  
run relay 2A1-J6.

Control Sequence  
of Operation  
If the STOP key is pressed on the  
operator interface, the chiller will  
follow the same stop sequence as  
above except the chilled water pump  
relay (1A5-J2) will also open and stop  
the chilled water pump after the  
chilled water pump delay timer has  
timed out after compressor shut  
down.  
Now that the compressor motor  
(4M1) is running in the ‘‘Delta’’  
configuration, the inlet guide vanes  
will modulate, opening and closing  
to the chiller load variation by  
operation of the stepper vane motor  
actuator (4M2) to satisfy chilled water  
setpoint. The chiller continues to run  
in its appropriate mode of operation:  
Normal, Softload, Limit Mode,  
etcetera.  
1. The inlet guide vanes are driven  
closed up to 50 seconds.  
2. After the inlet guide vanes are  
closed, the stop relay (2A1-J10) and  
the condenser water pump relays  
(1A5-J2) open to turn off. The oil  
and refrigerant pump motor (4B3)  
will continue to run for 3 minutes  
post lube while the compressor  
coasts to a stop. The chilled water  
pump will continue to run while  
the Main processor module (1A22)  
monitors leaving chilled water  
temperature preparing for the next  
compressor motor start based on  
the ‘‘differential to start’’ setpoint.  
If the “Immediate Stop” is initiated, a  
panic stop occurs which follows the  
same stop sequence as pressing the  
STOP key once except the inlet guide  
vanes are not sequence closed and  
the compressor motor is immediately  
turned off.  
If the chilled water temperature drops  
below the chilled water set point by  
an amount set as the ‘‘differential to  
stop’’ setpoint, a normal chiller stop  
sequence is initiated as follows:

this limit is to avoid High Pressure  
Cutout (HPC) trips by allowing the  
Chiller to continue to run at a lower  
load instead of tripping off via HPC.  
How It Works  
The Tracer chiller controller uses a  
patented, variable, water-flow  
compensation algorithm to maintain  
stable, precise capacity control.  
Variable flow compensation is a new  
optional control feature for CTV  
chillers.  
It will automatically adjust capacity  
control to:  
• Maintain control stability at low  
flow.  
• Reject variable-flow disturbance.  
If the water-pressure transducer fails  
and the flow switch continues to  
prove flow, water-flow compensation  
will be disabled and the design delta  
T will be used.  
For applications designed to operate  
with variable-primary (VPF) water-  
flow, variable flow compensation  
allows the chiller to respond quickly  
to accelerating or decelerating water.  
By automatically adjusting the  
control gain, large changes in the  
water-flow rate can be tolerated.  
For details, refer to CTV-PRC007-EN.

High Vacuum Lockout  
If the oil temperature is at or below a  
given Low Oil Temperature Inhibit  
setting (default 95°F/35°C) the  
compressor cannot be started. This  
is an inhibit mode and will be  
reported to the operator interface. The  
oil heater is energized in an attempt  
to raise the oil temperature over this  
inhibit temperature setpoint. The  
compressor is inhibited from starting  
until the oil temperature is raised 5 or  
more degrees above this setpoint.  
The oil sump pressure is below the  
lockout setpoint. Starting of  
compressor is inhibited as a result.  
Low Oil Temperature Start Inhibit  
The oil temperature is at or below the  
low oil temperature start inhibit  
setpoint (143°F/61.7°C). The heater is  
energized to raise the oil temperature.  
Low oil temperature is indicative of  
refrigerant dilution in the oil. Oil  
temperature is used to estimate this  
dilution since the oil temperature  
directly corresponds to amount of  
refrigeration dilution in the oil. It is  
required that oil contains minimal  
refrigerant in it. This is accomplished  
by boiling the refrigerant out of the  
oil by maintaining a high enough oil  
temperature.  
The Low Oil Temperature Start Inhibit  
is tested on every start unless a quick  
restart is being performed during  
post lube.  
If the Enhanced Oil Temperature  
Protection setting is enabled, the Low  
Oil Temperature Start Inhibit value is  
the greater of 100°F/37.8°C or the

Unit Startup  
The UCP also checks compressor  
motor winding temperature, and a  
start is initiated if the winding  
temperature is less than 265°F. The  
chilled water pump relay is energized  
and evaporator water flow is proven.  
When less than 5 seconds remain on  
the restart inhibit, the pre-start starter  
test is conducted on Y-Delta starters.  
If faults are detected, the unit’s  
compressor will not start, and a  
MMR Diagnostic will be generated.  
Unit Start-Up Procedures  
Daily Unit Start-Up  
1. Verify the chilled water pump and  
condenser water pump starter are  
in “ON” or “AUTO”.  
2. Verify the cooling tower is in “ON”  
or “AUTO”.  
Next, the UCP checks the leaving  
evaporator water temperature and  
compares it to the chilled water  
setpoint. If the difference between  
these values is less than the start  
differential setpoint, cooling is not  
needed.  
If the compressor motor starts and  
accelerates successfully, “Unit is  
Running” appears on the display. At  
this time the purge unit will start  
operating on “Automatic” and will  
continue to operate as long as chiller  
compressor is running.  
3. Check the oil tank oil level; the  
level must be visible in or above  
the lower sight glass. Also, be  
sure to check the oil tank  
temperature; normal oil tank  
temperature before start-up is  
140°F to 145°F (60 to 63°C).  
If the UCP determines that the  
difference between the evaporator  
leaving water temperature and chilled start-up, unit operation is locked out,  
water setpoint exceeds the start  
differential setpoint, the unit enters  
the initiate Start Mode and the oil  
pump and Refrigerant pump and the  
condenser water pump are started. If  
condenser water flow is not proven  
(flow switch 5S3 does not close)  
within 4-minutes 15 seconds, the unit  
is locked out on a MMR Diagnostic.  
Note: Whenever the UCP detects a  
MMR diagnostic condition during  
Note: The oil heater is energized  
during the compressor off cycle.  
During unit operation, the oil tank  
heater is de-energized.  
and manual reset is required before  
the start-up sequence can begin  
again. If the fault condition has not  
cleared, the UCP will not permit  
restart.  
4. If the chiller is equipped with the  
free cooling option, ensure that the  
free cooling option is disabled in  
the Chiller Settings menu.  
5. Check the chilled water setpoint  
and readjust it, if necessary, in the  
Chiller Settings menu.  
Oil pressure must be verified within 3  
minutes or a MMR diagnostic is  
generated.  
6. If necessary, readjust the current  
limit setpoint in the Chiller  
Setpoints menu.  
7. Press “AUTO”.

Unit Startup  
When the cooling requirement is  
satisfied, the UCP originates a  
“Shutting down” signal. The inlet  
guide vanes are driven closed for 50  
seconds, and the unit enters a 3-  
minute post-lube period. The  
compressor motor and condenser  
water pump starter are de-energized  
immediately, but the oil pump  
continues to run during this 3-minute  
interval; the evaporator pump will  
continue to run.  
4. Open all of the valves in the  
evaporator chilled water circuit.  
ƽ WARNING  
5. If the evaporator was previously  
drained, vent and fill the evaporator  
and chilled water circuit. When all  
air is removed from the system  
(Including each pass), close the  
vent valves in the evaporator water  
boxes.  
Live Electrical  
Components!  
During installation, testing, servicing  
and troubleshooting of this product,  
it may be necessary to work with  
live electrical components. Have a  
qualified licensed electrician or other  
individual who has been properly  
trained in handling live electrical  
components perform these tasks.  
Failure to follow all electrical safety  
precautions when exposed to live  
electrical components could result in  
death or serious injury.  
6. Lubricate the external vane control  
linkage as needed.  
7. Check the adjustment and  
operation of each safety and  
operating control.  
Once the post-lube cycle is done, the  
unit returns to auto mode.  
Seasonal Unit Start-Up  
8. Close all disconnect switches.  
1. Close all drain valves, and re-  
install the drain plugs in the  
evaporator and condenser  
headers.  
9. Perform instructions listed in  
“Daily Unit Start-up” section.  
ƽ WARNING  
2. Service the auxiliary equipment  
according to the start-up and  
maintenance instructions provided  
by the respective equipment  
manufacturers.  
Toxic Hazards!  
• Do not run evaporator water pump  
longer than 30 minutes after the  
chiller is shutdown.  
3. Vent and fill the cooling tower, if  
used, as well as the condenser  
and piping. At this point, all air  
must be removed from the system  
(including each pass). Then close  
the vents in the condenser water  
boxes.  
• Ensure that the evaporator is  
isolated from the hot water loop  
before changeover to heating  
mode.  
Do not allow the chiller to increase  
above 110°F in temperature while  
unit is off. Failure to prevent high  
chiller temperature will cause the  
inside pressure to rise. The rupture  
disk is designed to relieve and  
discharge the refrigerant from the  
unit if the pressure in the evaporator  
exceeds 15 PSIG (103.4 Kpa). A  
significant release of refrigerant into  
a confined space due to a rupture  
disk failure could displace available  
oxygen to breathe and cause  
possible asphyxiation. Should a  
rupture disk fail, evacuate the area  
immediately and contact the  
appropriate rescue or response  
authority. Failure to take appropriate  
precautions or react properly to a  
potential hazard could result in  
death or serious injury.

Overview  
CAUTION  
This section describes the basic  
chiller preventive maintenance  
procedures, and recommends the  
intervals at which these procedures  
should be performed. Use of a  
periodic maintenance program is  
important to ensure the best possible  
performance and efficiency from a  
CenTraVac® chiller.  
Moisture Contamination!  
IF FREQUENT PURGING IS  
REQUIRED, MONITOR PURGE  
PUMPOUT RATE, IDENTIFY AND  
CORRECT SOURCE OF AIR OR  
WATER LEAK AS SOON AS  
POSSIBLE. Failure to do so can  
shorten chiller life expectancy, due to  
moisture contamination caused by  
leakage.  
For example, if the machine operator  
notices a gradual increase in  
condensing pressure during a  
month’s time, he can systematically  
check, then correct the possible  
cause(s) of this condition (fouled  
condenser tubes, noncondensable in  
the system, etcetera)

pitting, corrosion, or excessive wear.  
Hazardous Voltage w/  
Capacitors!  
Disconnect all electric power,  
including remote disconnects 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.  
Note: For additional information  
regarding the safe discharge of  
capacitors, see PROD-SVB06A-EN or

Handling Guidelines.)  
Proper Water Treatment!  
The use of untreated or improperly  
treated water in a CenTraVac may  
result in scaling, erosion, corrosion,  
algae or slime. It is recommended  
that the services of a qualified water  
treatment specialist be engaged to  
determine what water treatment, if  
any, is required. Trane assumes no  
responsibility for equipment failures  
which result from untreated or  
improperly treated water, or saline or  
brackish water.  
Leak Testing  
To leak-test a chiller containing full  
refrigerant charge, raise chiller  
pressure using a controlled hot water  
or electric-resistance system to a  
maximum of 8 psig. Do not use  
nitrogen, which will cause excessive  
refrigerant discharge by the purge  
system.

Disconnect all electric power,  
including remote disconnects before  
servicing. Follow proper lockout/  
tagout procedures to ensure the

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.
