A Tradition of Innovation

The first Trane centrifugal chiller, the Turbovac™ was introduced in 1938. The simple, direct drive, slow speed design of the Turbovac revolutionized the air conditioning industry. The chiller was attractive to customers because its hermetic design reduced frequent service requirements.

In 1951 the Trane CenTraVac™ centrifugal chiller was introduced. Its unique two stage compressor with multiple inlet guide vanes and patented economizer reduced energy consumption on typical applications to less than 0.8 kW/ton.

The model PCV CenTraVac chiller that was introduced in 1966, allowed quality air conditioning for applications as small as 120 tons.

In 1982 the CenTraVac chiller solidified its position as the industry leader by introducing a three-stage compressor and a two-stage economizer. As a result, this chiller was 5 to 20 percent more efficient than previous designs.

Today’s CenTraVac chiller still relies on the dependability of the proven direct drive and exclusive slow speed operation. Low operating costs and high reliability continue to be the CenTraVac chiller hallmark.

When a source of energy other than electricity is required

The Trane CenTraVac has the standard option of being coupled to a Waukesha Enginator to quite simply convert natural gas to chilled water. With COPs in the range of 1.5 to 2.2 depending on options selected, makes this option a very simple and attractive alternative when an alternative fuel source is desired.

Unmatched Expertise

The performance and reliability of a CenTraVac™ chiller is backed by a team of experienced field sales engineers with support from headquarters experts. No other manufacturer can offer that degree of support to its customers.

In the design phase, application engineers can help answer your questions or solve your problems. During the selection phase, software engineers are available to help you evaluate equipment alternatives. At the installation stage, field start-up of the CenTraVac chiller is included in the purchase price. Trane offers this support and more when you need it.

Delivery And Design Flexibility

If delivery time is a priority, Trane can meet your needs with a variety of quick shipment choices. Most fast track building schedules can be met with one of these choices.

Design flexibility means Trane can custom build a unit to specific job requirements. Design parameters such as shell type, compressor, kW/ton, waterside pressure drop, as well as full and part load performance can be built to meet requirements.

ISO 9001 Certification

ISO 9001 Certification applies to the Trane La Crosse Business Unit. This process is based on the La Crosse Business Unit’s ISO 9001 certified quality system. This system is documented in procedures which define how quality assurance activities are managed, performed, and continuously monitored. Included in the system are verification checkpoints from the time the order is entered until final shipment. In addition, product development for the marketplace is subjected to formal planning, review and validation. The system is designed to assure maximum consistency in meeting customer requirements.

The Beauty of Simplicity

The reliability of a centrifugal chiller starts with its basic product design. At Trane we’ve found that the straightest path to reliability is simplicity. Years of research and field testing have honed the design of the CenTraVac chiller to a simple, precise solution to a complex engineering problem.

This simple design provides efficiency and reliability benefits. The Trane CenTraVac chiller has only one moving part — no gear boxes, couplings or extra shafts. The single rotating shaft is supported by two aircraft turbine grade/ rated bearings. This direct drive concept minimizes the chance of failure for moving parts. It also reduces wear and drag on parts, resulting in more efficient operation.
