Improper Unit Lift | Trane GETB manual

Installation

! WARNING

Improper Unit Lift!

Test lift unit approximately 24

inches to verify proper center of

gravity lift point. To avoid

dropping of unit, reposition lifting

point if unit is not level. Failure to

properly lift unit could result in

death or serious injury or possible

equipment or property-only

damage.

Unit Placement

If unit cabinet assembly includes fac-

tory provided risers, and "no" field

provided between-the-floor riser ex-

tensions, please move to Step 1.

Note: Risers are designed to accom-

modate a maximum of 1 1/2" to 3" ex-

pansion and contraction. If the total

calculated riser expansion exceeds 3",

FLOOR

expansion devices must be field pro-

vided.

If unit cabinet assembly includes fac-

tory provided risers and field provided

3" SWAGE

between-the-floor riser extensions are

required, install the extensions before

installing the cabinet.

1 Install drain valve, shut-off/balanc-

ing valves, flow indicators and

drain at the base of each supply and

return riser to enable system flush-

ing at start-up, balancing and ser-

vice/maintenance.

2 Lift cabinet into space while align-

ing it into the 3"swage of the riser

below.

Note: Take extra care as not to scrape

or dent risers during positioning. The

riser should fall approximately 2" into

the 3" swage. This will allow for the

variation in floor-to-floor dimensions,

and keep the riser joints from bottom-

FLOOR

ing out.

3 Level the cabinet.

4 Plumb risers in two planes to as-

sure proper unit operation and con-

densate drainage.

5 Anchor all units into place.

6 For field provided risers, center the

supply/return stubouts into the unit

expansion slots. The stubouts should be perpendicular to the cab- inet panel.

7Verify all risers are vertical and that they penetrate the swaged joint at least 1". Riser should not be al- lowed to bottom out.

8Braze riser joints. Soft solder or low-temperature alloys should not be used in this application.

9If risers are field provided, it is rec- ommended that the risers be an- chored to the building structure with a minimum of one contact point. For expansion and contrac- tion reasons, do not fasten risers rigidly to the building.

10Seal access holes made through the cabinet for piping with suitable ma- terial to help eliminate air leakage.

11See page 14 for system flushing.

Water Connection

For vibration isolation, it is recom- mended that flexible steel braided hoses be installed instead of hard pip- ing between the vertical risers and the unit chassis.

Trane offers 4-types of hose kit varia- tions:

•Stainless steel braided flexible hose with manual shut-off (ball) valves

•Stainless steel braided flexible hose with manual deluxe shut-off (ball) valves

•Stainless steel braided flexible hose with manual circuit-setter valve

•Stainless steel braided flexible hose with automatic balancing valve

Additional accessories, such as a strainer are recommended for use to eliminate contaminants from entering the co-axial water-to-refrigerant heat exchangers.

GETB specifications

The Trane GETB, known for its exceptional efficiency and reliability, stands as a leader in the commercial HVAC industry. Designed to meet the demands of varying environments, the GETB system is particularly beneficial for buildings requiring constant heating and cooling performance.

One of the standout features of the GETB is its use of the Trane Tracer SC+ building management system. This intelligent control platform allows facility managers to efficiently monitor and manage HVAC settings remotely, optimizing comfort and energy consumption. The integration of smart technology significantly reduces operational costs by promoting energy-saving strategies tailored to specific building requirements.

A notable technology incorporated in the Trane GETB system is the use of advanced variable-speed compressors. These compressors adjust their output based on the needs of the building, providing precise temperature control and minimizing energy wastage. With this technology, the GETB can achieve high efficiencies across various load conditions, which is particularly advantageous during periods of fluctuating occupancy.

Another important characteristic of the GETB is its robust design tailored for durability and longevity. Constructed with high-quality materials and components, the system is engineered to withstand the rigors of continuous operation in industrial environments. This resilience ensures minimal disruptions and maintenance needs, allowing for a seamless integration into any facility.

Additionally, the GETB offers extensive options for zoning and temperature control. With its zoning capabilities, different areas of a building can be maintained at separate temperature settings, enhancing comfort for occupants while contributing to energy conservation. The ability to customize the system to suit specific building layouts makes the GETB a versatile choice for a variety of applications.

Furthermore, the GETB is designed with environmental sustainability in mind. By using refrigerants with lower global warming potential, Trane has focused on reducing the ecological footprint of its products. This commitment to sustainability does not only comply with regulatory standards but also supports building owners looking to achieve green certifications.

In summary, the Trane GETB combines advanced technologies, robust design, and energy-efficient features to provide a dependable HVAC solution for commercial spaces. With its smart controls, variable-speed compressors, and emphasis on sustainability, it represents an ideal choice for those seeking reliable heating and cooling in a dynamic and eco-conscious manner.
