Installation
HFO units
Horizontal units are designed to be suspended from the ceiling on threaded rods or lag screws supplied by the installer. The holes are located on the top of the unit. Refer to Table 1 for drilling distances and to Figure 2 for hole locations. Ceiling mounting Drill into the ceiling according to the dimensions given in Table 2. Fix the four suspension rods or lag screws into the ceiling. Mount the unit. It must be perfectly level. If it is not level, the condensates will not drain correctly through the holes provided. Warning: The unit must be perfectly level. If it is not level the condensates will not drain correctly through the holes provided. Warning:The coil headers are not designed to withstand the torque necessary to tighten the connector. Use a suitable counter-spanner. Note: When the unit is supplied without the control valve kit, it is recommended to use figure 3. When the unit is supplied with the control valve kit, or if the connections are carried out by an installer, the connection side may be reversed depending on the option: left/right hand. This has no significant effect on the unit's capacity. Trane recommends the use of flexible hoses to connect the units. These hoses are available from your Trane local sales office. Make sure that the connecting tubing does not hamper the mounting of the auxiliary condensate tray which is delivered un-mounted as an option.

Hot water inlet (1/2'' gas - female) Warning: The use of untreated or improperly treated water in this equipment may result in scaling, slime, erosion or corrosion. The services of a qualified water treatment specialist should be engaged to determine what treatment, if any, is advisable. Trane will not accept any ability in regards of damage due to the use of untreated or improperly treated water Condensate drainage connection Make sure that nothing is preventing drainage of the main condensate recovery tray. See Figure 4. Mounting the auxiliary condensate tray Make sure the coil's rubber condensate drainage sleeve is placed at 45 in relation to the auxiliary tray. See Figure 4.

Installation
Reminder: Make sure there is a watertight seal beween the auxiliary condensate tray and the frame. Warning: Whenever the installation's pipes (including any adjuster bends supplied by Trane) stick out from the auxiliary condensate tray, the installer must insulate them. Connection of auxiliary condensate trays Provide a U-trap on the drainage line. It is vital to use tubes that do not become deformed when bent. Warning: Make sure there is no counterslope which would prevent condensate drainage. If the evacuation lines are fixed using a screwed mounting clip (e.g. Serflex) the auxiliary condensate tray outlet made of plastic may break. There is no pressure, and so a nylon clip (e.g. RILSAN) is sufficient. Condensate pumps When this option is ordered, the condensate pumps are mounted on the frame. To reduce noise and vibrations, they can be removed and mounted outside the unit. The necessary piping must be provided. These operations must be paid for by the installer. Before starting up the unit, make sure there are no foreign bodies in the auxiliary tray which might obstruct the condensate pump filter. The water level detectors mounted in the auxiliary condensate trays must only be filled with condensates. When the unit is drained (dirty water, glycolated water, etc.) it will be necessary to isolate the water level detector, which may suffer irreparable damage, in which case TRANE could not be held liable (e.g. glycol adhering to the floater).

Electrical connections
To make the electrical connections for HFO fan coils, refer to the diagram glued to the electric panel's cover. You can obtain additional copies from your local Trane Sales Office. Note:To set up the installation, you must use all the electrical specifications, electric heater motors, control specifications, etc. For additional information please contact your local Trane Sales Office. Warning: Disconnect the power supply before making electrical connections. Failure to do so may cause serious accidents as well as irreversible damage to certain electrical components (motors, relays, etc...).

Warning: For wiring, use copper conductors only. Unit terminals are not designed to accept other types of wiring. Aluminium or other materials could lead to galvanic corrosion or overheating at the contact point thus damaging the unit. The customer's electrical connections must comply with current standards. HFO fan coils manufactured by Trane comply with CEI regulations. The sensors and change-over capsules must be installed on the installation's entering water piping (responsibility of the installer).

FIN-SVX01A-E4

Installation
The factory-mounted electrical heaters are fitted with a safety device that prevents them functioning if the fan breaks down (beware of automatic resetting systems). All faults must be reported to the maintenance department. Warning: If an electric heater is connected by an installer, operation of the electric heater must be subordinated to operation of the fan.

Checks before the first start-up.

1) Check the units are perfectly level in both directions. 2) Make sure the fan rotates freely on its shaft. 3) Check the filter is in place. It is necessary to have a set of filters available because the first set will quickly becomed clogged due to jobsite dust. 4) Make sure all water connections (chilled water, hot water, condensate tray) are tightened correctly and leak free. 5) Make sure all electrical connections are tightened correctly. 6) Make sure the units are perfectly clean. 7) Check the condensate tray drainage pipe is connected and allows drainage. A lack of flow may be due to dirt in the unit (debris, etc.). 8) Check and clean the condensate tray and make sure the drainage line is free.

Maintenance
It is recommended to carry out the following maintenance procedures at the stipulated frequencies to ensure the unit operates correctly. Warning: Disconnect the unit's power supply before removing the fan coil casing and servicing the unit. Once a month Inspect the filter. If necessary clean or replace it (Figure 5). Note:The first time you start up the unit, you must check the filters after one week of operation. The filters are likely to be heavily clogged because of the jobsite dust. It is recommended to procure a set of new filters. Filter (Figure 5) 1) Unscrew the two quick fasteners (A) 2) Remove the airtight filter support (B) 3) Pull the filter down (C) Warning: If the HFO units are to be exposed to temperatures below 0C, take the necessary precautions to avoid freeze-up of the components.

Once a year Use random sampling of the units installed in the building (between 3 and 5%) to check: 1) the state of cleanliness of the condensate trays. 2) the condensates flow correctly (use a water spray). 3) the condensate pumps are operating correctly. Check the condensate pump filters by sampling and replace them if necessary. 4) there is no air in the coils' water circuit.

End of hot season To remove any impurities that have been accumulated in the unit's main tray, it is recommended to wash it with fresh water at the end of the hot season (e.g. with a water spray).
