Trane CenTraVac™ Water-Cooled Chiller CVHG - 480-565 - 489 - 080S / 080L

Test appropriate sensors for accuracy

Ensure sensors are properly seated in wells with thermopaste installed

Check evaporator leaving water temperature low temperature cutout setpoint

Condenser high pressure switch check-out

Check adjustment and operation of the inlet guide vane actuator

Sign off on the control circuits inspection

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

Anode depletion occurs very quickly

Consultation with a water treatment specialist

Sign off on the anode replacement

NOTICE: Proper Water Treatment Required! The use of untreated or improperly treated water could result in scaling, erosion, corrosion, algae or slime. Use the services of a qualified water treatment specialist to determine what water treatment, if any, is required. Trane assumes no responsibility for equipment failures which result from untreated or improperly treated water, or saline or brackish water.

Condenser tube fouling is indicated when the approach temperature (the difference between the condensing refrigerant temperature and the leaving condenser water temperature) is higher than predicted.

If the annual condenser tube inspection indicates that the tubes are fouled, two cleaning methods— mechanical and chemical—can be used to rid the tubes of contaminants. Use the mechanical cleaning method to remove sludge and loose material from smooth-bore tubes.

To clean other types of tubes including internally- enhanced types, consult a qualified service organization for recommendations.

Follow all instructions in “Waterbox Removal and Installation,” to remove waterbox covers.

Work a round nylon or brass bristled brush (attached to a rod) in and out of each of the condenser water tubes to loosen the sludge.

Thoroughly flush the condenser water tubes with clean water.

Scale deposits are best removed by chemical means. Be sure to consult any qualified chemical house in the area (one familiar with the local water supply’s chemical mineral content) for a recommended cleaning solution suitable for the job.

Note: A standard condenser water circuit is composed solely of copper, cast iron, and steel.

Trane recommends that coated waterboxes/tubesheets - regardless of the type of protective coating included - be taken out of service within the first one to three months of operation for inspection.

Any voids or defects identified upon inspection?

If voids or defects are identified, they must be repaired.

Is the water quality known to be highly supportive of corrosion (i.e., sea water, etc.)?

If yes, inspect the coating system at one month.

Is the water quality known to be relatively benign (i.e., normal treated and clean condenser water)?

If yes, inspect the coating system within three months.

Did the initial inspections show no problems?

Only when initial inspections show no problems are present should subsequent maintenance intervals be increased.

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
