Trane CenTraVac™ Water-Cooled Chiller CVHF - 350-570 - 588 - 050S / 050S

Shut down the chiller once each year to check the items of Optional Accessories

If applicable, lubricate factory-installed gantries

After the first month of operation, inspect Heresite® or Belzona® coated waterboxes; thereafter, inspect as needed

Inspect and lubricate hinged waterboxes

With water flow sensing option, bleed tubing from waterboxes to transformers

Compare the readings with the values provided in the general maintenance

Check the oil level in the chiller oil sump using the two sight glasses provided in the oil sump head. When the unit is operating, the oil level should be visible in the lower sight glass

Clean all water strainers in the water piping system

Inspect waterbox coatings within the first 1–3 months to determine a required maintenance schedule for your job site

Inspect waterbox anodes within the first 1–3 months to determine a required maintenance schedule for your job site

Sign off on the chiller maintenance

Warning: Equipment Damage! Failure to follow instructions could result in equipment damage

Do NOT use Teflon-based tape or paste on anode; a small amount of liquid sealant (Loctite® 242 or equivalent) may be applied to prevent leakage when installing an anode, but do not apply so much sealant that it prevents the necessary electrical connection between the anode and the waterbox

As needed after draining the waterbox, use a 2-1/2 in. (63.5 mm) wrench to remove/install Trane-supplied waterbox anodes

Inspection of anodes for wear within the first several months of the anodes being placed into service

Enter the observed loss of anode material

Anode has lost 50 percent or more of its original mass

If anode depletion occurs very quickly, consult a water treatment specialist to determine if the anode material selected is correct for the application

Sign off on the anode replacement

NOTICE: Equipment Damage! Mixing refrigerants or oils could result in equipment damage including bearing damage, introduction of acids into the chiller, or continuous purge pump-out in high-head/high ambient applications

CenTraVac chillers are manufactured with different refrigerant/oil systems: 1) chillers using R-123 refrigerant and OIL00022 compressor oil, and 2) chillers using R-514A refrigerant and OIL00334/OIL00335 compressor oil

Verify proper refrigerant and oil for your chiller and do NOT mix refrigerants or oils!

Important: Verify proper refrigerant and compressor oil for your chiller before proceeding!

After the first six months of accumulated operation or after 1000 hours operation—whichever comes first—it is recommended to change the oil and filter

After this oil change, it is recommended to subscribe to the Trane annual oil analysis program rather than automatically change the oil as part of scheduled maintenance

Change the oil only if indicated by the oil analysis. Using an oil analysis program will reduce the chiller’s overall lifetime waste oil generation and minimize refrigerant emissions. The analysis determines system moisture content, acid level, and wear metal content of the oil, and can be used as a diagnostic tool. The oil analysis should be performed by a qualified laboratory that is experienced in refrigerant and oil chemistry and in the servicing of Trane® centrifugal chillers

In conjunction with other diagnostics performed by a qualified service technician, oil analyses can provide valuable information on the performance of the chiller to help minimize operating and maintenance costs and maximize its operating life. A valve is installed next to the oil filter for the purpose of obtaining oil samples
