Installation of the 1/2 through
5-Ton Vertical
Whether securing the 1/2 through
5-ton GEV to a central pumping sys-
tem, or a distributed pumping system,
Trane recommends a few accessory
considerations to the system installa-
tion.
The field supplied line
voltage disconnect should
be installed for branch cir-
cuit protection.
The units (2) 3/4-inch high
voltage and (3) 1/2-inch
low voltage connections
are located on the left
chamfered corner of the
unit. They are designed to
accept conduit.
Trane recommends that
the condensate system be
set-up per negative pres-
sure trapping in consider-
ation of the unit’s
draw-through design.
With this properly trapped
system, when condensate
forms during normal oper-
ation, the water level in
the trap rises until there
is a constant outflow.
For acoustically sensitive areas, a
1/2-inch thick field provided vibra-
tion pad should be installed below
the vertical unit. This field provid-
ed piece should be equal to the
overall foot-print size of the unit to
provide sound damping of the
unit while in operation.
Hose kits are used to connect the
water supply and return lines to
the water inlet and outlets. Trane
includes various hose kit combi-
nations to better facilitate system
flow balancing. These flexible
hoses, reduce vibration between
the unit and the rigid piping sys-
tem.
