Tracer® ZN.520

Discharge Air Tempering

Heating Operation

The Tracer® ZN.520 controller operates the supply fan continuously when the controller is in the occupied and occupied standby modes, for either heating or cooling. The controller only cycles the fan off with heating and cooling capacity in the unoccupied mode.

The economizer is used for cooling purposes whenever the outdoor temperature is below the economizer enable setpoint and there is a need for cooling. The economizer is used first to meet the space demand, and other forms of cooling are used if the economizer cannot meet the demand alone. See modulating outdoor air damper operation for additional information.

Cascade cooling control initiates a discharge air tempering function if the discharge air temperature falls below the discharge air tempera- ture control low limit, all cooling capacity is at minimum, and the discharge control loop determines a need to raise the discharge air temperature. The controller then provides heating capacity to raise the discharge air temperature to its low limit.

The discharge air tempering function enables when cold outdoor air is brought in through the outdoor air damper, causing the discharge air to fall below the discharge air temperature control low limit. The controller exits the discharge air tempering function when heat capacity has been at 0% for five minutes.

During heating mode, the Tracer® ZN.520 controller attempts to maintain the space temperature at the active heating setpoint. Based on the occupancy mode of the controller, the active heating setpoint is one of the following:

•Occupied heating

•Occupied standby heating

•Unoccupied heating

During dehumidification in the heating mode, the controller adjusts the heating setpoint up to the cooling setpoint. This reduces the relative humidity in the space with a minimum of energy usage. The controller uses the measured space temperature, the active heating setpoint, and discharge air temperature, along with the control algorithm, to determine the requested heating capacity of the unit (0-100%). The outputs are controlled based on the unit configura- tion and the required heating capacity.

LO specifications

Trane LO is a cutting-edge solution in the HVAC sector, designed with advanced engineering and smart technologies to meet diverse climate control needs. Renowned for its reliability and efficiency, Trane LO offers a wide array of features that set it apart in the market.

One of the core characteristics of Trane LO is its energy efficiency. Equipped with variable speed compressors, the system can adjust its output according to the cooling or heating demand, ensuring optimal energy use. This feature not only reduces energy consumption but also lowers utility bills for users. Additionally, Trane LO units often come with a SEER (Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio) rating that ensures top performance during hotter months.

Incorporating state-of-the-art technology, Trane LO features Smart Technology integration. Through IoT (Internet of Things) capabilities, users can monitor and control their HVAC systems remotely via smartphones or smart home devices. This feature promotes convenience and ensures that energy use can be optimized from anywhere, giving users greater control over their indoor climate.

Another standout technology in Trane LO is its use of environmentally friendly refrigerants. The system is designed to utilize low-GWP (Global Warming Potential) refrigerants, making it compliant with modern environmental standards and contributing to a greener planet.

The Trane LO also emphasizes durability. Constructed with high-quality materials, including weather-resistant finishes, these units are built to withstand various environmental conditions, ensuring they maintain peak performance over the years.

Noise reduction is another critical aspect of the Trane LO line. With features such as sound blankets and vibration dampening technology, the units operate quietly, ensuring that the comfort of users is not compromised by disruptive noise levels.

Maintenance is simplified with the Trane LO, as several units are engineered for easy access to essential components, promoting hassle-free servicing. This is vital for prolonging the lifespan of the system and reducing maintenance costs.

In summary, Trane LO represents a fusion of energy efficiency, advanced technology, environmental responsibility, durability, and user-friendly features. Whether for residential or commercial applications, Trane LO systems stand as a reliable choice for effective climate control.
