General - R410A All air-cooled condensing units shall have scroll compressors and are factory assembled and wired. Each unit shall ship from the factory with a nitrogen holding charge. Units shall be constructed of 14-gauge welded galvanized steel frame with 14 and 16-gauge galvanized steel panels and access doors. Units shall have factory mounted, louvered, full-length steel grilles to protect the condenser coils and piping.
Unit surface shall be phosphatized and finished with an air-dry paint. This air-dry paint finish shall be durable enough to withstand a minimum of 672-consecutive-hour salt spray application in accordance with standard ASTM B117.
Compressors - R-410A Trane 3-D Scroll compressors have simple mechanical design with only three (3) major moving parts.
Scroll type compression provides inherently low vibration. 3-D compressors provide a completely enclosed compression chamber with no leakage paths. The compressor is suction gas cooled, direct drive, 3600 RPM hermetic motors. The Scroll compressor includes a centrifugal oil pump, oil level sight glass, and an oil charging valve.
Refrigerant Management - R-410A Split systems can have significantly more refrigerant than packaged systems and thus require controls to reliably manage this excess refrigerant. Each compressor shall have crankcase heaters installed, properly sized to minimize the amount of liquid refrigerant present in the oil sump during off cycles.
Additionally, the condensing unit shall have controls to initiate refrigerant isolation at system shut down on each refrigerant circuit. To be operational, the refrigerant isolation cycle requires a field-installed isolation solenoid valve on the common liquid line near the evaporator.
Note: Under extreme conditions, R410a refrigerant can present special challenges with piping and system design. Whenever refrigerant line set lengths approach 150 equivalent feet and/or design ambient temperature exceeds 115 degrees F, contact your Trane Account Executive to review application requirements.
Unit Control - R410A Factory provided 115-volt control circuit includes fusing and control power transformer. The unit is wired with magnetic contactors for compressor and condenser motors, three-leg solid-state compressor overload protection, and high/low pressure cutouts. Charge isolation, reset relay and anti-recycle compressor timer is provided. Across-the-line start is standard.
Dual Circuit, Condenser Coils for 40-60 Ton Units - R-410A Condenser coils are dual circuited having an Aluminum Microchannel design. The coils are burst tested, and leak tested. Factory installed liquid line service valves are standard.
Dual Refrigerant Circuit w/Four Capacity Stages for 40-60 Ton Units - R410A Each unit has dual refrigeration circuits.

Condenser Fans - R-410A Condenser fans are direct driven with motors having thermal overload protection and permanently lubricated ball bearings.
No System Control - R-410A No System Control provides a terminal strip for step control provided by others. The system provides internal 3 minute fixed on and 5 minutes fixed off time delays and compressor contactors. Each unit is equipped with a phase loss/reversal/low voltage monitor which protects 3-phase equipment from phase loss, phase reversal, and low voltage. Any fault condition will produce a Failure Indicator LED and send the unit into an emergency stop condition. The system temperature step controller must be field provided and installed.
Note: For No Controls Units Step controllers provided by others, the controller must include 5 minutes on/off interstage timers to coordinate with the units fixed on/off time delay relays.
Standard Ambient Control - R-410A: Standard ambient control allows unit operation from 40 F to 115.
Non-Fused Unit Disconnect Switch - R-410A A non-fused disconnect switch is mounted in the control box and provides for interruption of power for servicing the unit. Lugs are suitable for copper wires only. No overcurrent or short circuit protection is provided for unit by this switch.
