2 Superior Performance ashrae 111 Class 6 low-leak casing design achieving less than percent leakage rate at +/- 8 inches Less than L/240 @ +/- 8 inches panel and door deflection 2-inch R13 foam-insulated, mid-span thermal break panels and thermal break doors Casing thermal resistance ratio TR-value of New filter technology that exceeds LEED requirements and reduces filter pressure drops up to 50 percent versus previous designs Industry-Leading Energy Efficiency AMCA 611-certified Traq airflow monitoring station Total energy-recovery wheels Cool Dry Quiet (CDQ ) desiccant dehumidification wheels Discharge plenums and plenum fan sections available with variable size, type, and location of openings to reduce static pressure loss and lower energy consumption 50,000 hour LED service lights Low-leak.

3 High thermal Performance casing design All airfoil-bladed dampers and Traq dampers meet ashrae lowest specified leakage requirements High-efficiency coil fins deliver superior heat transfer while allowing face velocities in excess of 625 fpm without moisture carryover System Optimization Optimal design to meet the Trane EarthWise design philosophy incorporating high-efficiency air Handlers and water chillers with low flow rates and low temperatures. Factory-engineered, -mounted, and -tested control packages with properly sealed casing openings. Variety of coil types with high-efficiency coil fins allow lower coil approach temperature and reduce chance of moisture carryover Ability to choose the exact number of fins per foot of coil surface to enhance heat transfer and air pressure Performance Wide array of fan options, including direct-drive plenum fans, belt-drive plenum fans, and housed fans Control options to easily incorporate fan pressurization and demand control ventilation strategies.

4 Design and analysis tools provide whole building analysis, acoustical design guidance, equipment Performance data, and suggested control strategies to help achieve optimum system design with tailored energy, IAQ, and project budget solutions. 2013 Trane All rights reserved CLCH-PRC022A-EN. Introduction Highest Quality UL/CUL listed AHRI Standard 430-certified air-handling unit AHRI Standard 410-certified coils are all factory tested AHRI Standard 1060-certified energy wheels All fans are dynamically balanced in the horizontal and vertical planes. All fans with VFDs undergo inverter balancing Formulated panels and integral base frame minimize seams that could introduce air leak paths Integrated raceway for wiring protection Integrated, fully-enclosed control panel for starters, VFDs, and unit-mounted controllers Pre-engineered, factory-mounted controls, including end devices, motor controllers, VFDs, unit-mounted DDC controllers, Traq damper ventilation control section, UL-listed turnkey control packages Lowest Installed Cost Lifting lugs included on the integral base frame Indoor units ship with skid designed for forklift transport Variable height, size, type.

5 And location of openings on discharge plenums minimize duct transitions Factory-installed interoperable controls shorten construction cycles, simplify job-site coordination, reduce installation time and expense, and provide single-source responsibility for warranty and service issues Single-point power is available with high-voltage distribution block and external main unit disconnect with lockout/tagout capabilities. External service module with 15 amp GFCI receptacle, light switch, and controller display and communications port Quick-connect wiring minimizes installation costs and provides wiring integrity between sections Factory-installed conduit connectors eliminate penetrations in the wrong location Motor leads can be run through flexible metal conduits to NEMA 4 external motor junction box building Information Modeling (BIM)
