Introduction

To meet a wide range of applications in the medium-tonnage, water-cooled market,Trane is proud to introduce the model RTHD helical rotary liquid chiller. The introduction of this next-generation chiller an exciting step forward in application versatility, ease of installation, control precision, reliability, energy- efficiency, and operational cost-effectiveness.The new RTHD chiller is designed to deliver proven Series R performance, plus all the benefits of an advanced heat transfer design and a low- speed, direct-drive compressor.

Important Design Advances and New Features

Major design advances include:

•Higher full-load energy efficiency reduces both operating and life-cycle costs.

•CH530 controls enable:

-scrolling access to inputs and operating information via the LCD touch-screen display;

-freedom from interoperability concerns with LonMark communications;

-job-specific communication options that allow greater reporting flexibility.

•Improved startup temperature capabilities and reduced sensitivity to condenser water temperatures alleviate the most common startup concerns.

•Removed LiquidVapor Separator, providing lighter unit weight and simplified refrigerant piping, for less expensive handling, separation, and installation.

The industrial-grade design of the Series R helical rotary chiller is ideal for both industrial and commercial markets, in applications such as office buildings, hospitals, schools, retail buildings, and industrial facilities.The linear unloading compressor, wide operating temperature range, advanced controls, electronic expansion valve, short anti-recycle timers, and industry-leading efficiencies mean that this latestTrane Series R chiller is the perfect choice for tight temperature control in almost any application temperatures, and under widely varying loads.
