Features and Benefits
maintaining and documenting IAQ to ensure occupant comfort and to meet industry and
government regulatory standards.
In Standard 62.1, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air Conditioning Engineers
(ASHRAE) provides guidance regarding suitable outside air volume to be brought into the
building, recommended air filtration, and design recommendations and procedures to control
microbial growth. However, applying these principles may lead to greater energy consumption,
larger and noisier units, and increased risk of coil freeze-up. The flexibility of the Performance air
handler enables you to configure a unique, IAQ-ready air-handling system that can address all of
these concerns.
Serviceability/Cleanability
• Full-size access doors and access sections are available for easy
cleaning of internal components
• Fully removable coil and access panels
• Smooth, cleanable interior double-wall surfaces help improve
indoor air quality.
• Coils are raised up out of the drain pan to make all coils
removable from the side and provide easier access to the drain
pan for cleaning.
• Optional antimicrobial treatments for drain pans and filters.
Sound-Sensitive Solutions
Acceptable space sound levels enhance occupant comfort and
productivity. However, system designs that promote good IAQ can
adversely affect acoustics: unlined ductwork, air handlers with solid
double-wall construction, and increased fan static pressures
(resulting from the addition of energy recovery and increased
filtration) can magnify the building’s background noise.
Trane air handlers have unique product flexibility that allow
designers to use them in many low noise criteria (NC) applications.
NC curves define not-to-exceed limits for a noise source to achieve a
level of occupant acceptance. Performance air handlers can be used
successfully in NC 35 offices and schools.

Single-Source Responsibility
Equipment and interoperable controls, engineered and provided by a single manufacturer,
provide faster construction cycles and simplify job-site coordination efforts. This simplification
reduces installation time, expense, and risk. Trane equipment and controls package provides the
optimal performance when integrated in a TraneEarthwise ™ system. This is a powerful system
architecture that unifies Trane HVAC equipment, direct digital control, and building management
into a cohesive whole with an assured source of support. This system is managed with the
Tracer® building management system.
Single-Point Power
For air-handling units requiring a supply fan with a return/exhaust fan, electric heat, gas heat or
CDQ, we can supply single-point power. From a single line voltage connection, power is
provided to all components including controls and service lights. Single-point power wiring does
not compromise the UL or ETL certification of the unit.
14 CLCH-PRC022F-EN
Features and Benefits
After installation, Tracer controllers enable information-sharing and complex control strategies,
such as ventilation reset, throughout the HVAC system. They also ensure that each subsystem
operates in the most efficient manner possible while continuing to satisfy current loads. The
result is reduced building energy consumption through effective operation of the entire HVAC
system at part-load conditions.
Trane ICS incorporates the latest energy-saving concepts to produce comfort at the lowest
possible cost. In addition, it offers sophisticated building management features, such as after-
hours billing, for commercial properties. This revenue opportunity enables developers and
owners to accurately monitor and bill the cost incurred by a single tenant in after-hours usage of
a facility. An optional DDC variable-air-volume (VAV) capability helps to accurately control each
tenant space so that only an individual tenant’s HVAC systems are activated. This helps minimize
operating costs while providing flexible work hours.
Reliable Operation
Controller end devices, such as low-limit switches and averaging temperature sensors, are
properly sized, selected, laboratory-tested, and mounted for optimal system performance. Trane
engineers its unit-mounted controllers to provide the highest level of useful information
possible. A computer-based test station tests low-voltage end-device functionality and surveys
the input devices. This procedure ensures trouble-free installation and reliable operation when
the Performance air handler reaches the job site. This feature can limit the number of call-backs
and punch-list tasks.
Incorporating a Performance air handler with Trane ICS provides an engineered system of
proven components and comfort concepts that is both state-of-the-art and reliable. Standard
components are used to aid in serviceability and uniformity from building to building. These
components, when tied to a Tracer Summit system, provide a powerful tool for scheduling
preventive maintenance, reducing equipment downtime, and controlling service expense.
Open Protocol
The Tracer® UC600 is a programmable BACnet® unit controller that
is designed to work with the Tracer SC and third-party BACnet MS/TP
systems. The UC600 controller has the I/O and size to meet the
controls needs for air handlers, central plants, and other high-point
count applications.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 15
Features and Benefits
Service Module
Performance air handlers can be equipped with an easy access
Service Module when service lights are factory mounted. All service
lights are wired to a common switch within the Service Module,
located on the supply fan. The Service Module can also include a 15-
amp ground-fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) receptacle separate from
the load side of the equipment, a National Electrical Code (NEC)
requirement.
Proven Performance
AHRI Standards
Trane combines comprehensive performance certification by AHRI with thorough laboratory
testing and advanced manufacturing methods. Together, these elements help assure that each
Trane air handler operates predictably and reliably throughout the life of the unit.
Unlike other rating methods that check fan performance alone, Trane units are performance-
tested in accordance with AHRI Standard 430. This certification process evaluates the air handler
on the basis of airflow, static pressure, fan speed, and brake horsepower.
Heating and cooling coils are rigorously tested and certified with AHRI Standard 410 to assure
that they, too, deliver published performance.
Trane energy wheels and air-to-air plate frame heat exchangers are certified in accordance with
AHRI Standard 1060.
AHRI Standard 260 is the first ducted air handler sound rating procedure. It is intended to provide
engineers with better, more accurate, ducted sound power levels so that they can design quieter
and more cost-effective comfort systems. Sound ratings for Trane air handlers have been
developed from extensive AHRI Standard 260 testing and laboratory data.
UL Listing
Trane air handlers are UL-listed to U.S. and Canadian safety standards.
AMCA Certification
Trane utilizes AMCA certification for airflow measuring stations. Trane certifies that the Traq™
damper shown herein is licensed to bear the AMCA Seal. The ratings shown are based on tests
16 CLCH-PRC022F-EN
Features and Benefits
and procedures performed in accordance with AMCA Publication 611 and comply with the
requirements of the AMCA Certified Ratings Program.
This certification program provides the engineer and owner assurance that manufacturer-
published performance ratings for airflow measurement stations are accurate and repeatable.
Trane Traq dampers are certified with the integral ventilation control module (VCM) which
converts differential pressure to an electronic signal for control.
ISO Certification
Certification by the International Standardization Organization (ISO) ensures that an organization
can consistently deliver a product or service that meets the customer’s contractual requirements
by following documented processes. The ISO 9001 quality assurance model establishes the
requirements for an organization whose business processes range from design and development
to production. Having the quality management system of our manufacturing plants ISO 9001-
certified directly benefits Trane customers because our continuous process improvements can
reduce business costs, improve product quality, and enable faster ship cycles

HVAC Design Fundamentals
In essence, an air-handling unit, or AHU, is exactly what its name implies: a device that
“handles” (moves and/or conditions) air. It accomplishes this based on the functions required by
a given application, as well as the arrangement of components necessary for those functions.
Trane air handlers can accommodate an extraordinary degree of design versatility, but in order
to apply that versatility to each unique application, an HVAC designer must:
• Design the air handler in a manner consistent with good HVAC design practices.
• Understand the impact of ASHRAE Standard 62.1, Ventilation for Acceptable Indoor Air
Quality, and ASHRAE Standard 90.1, Energy Standard for Buildings Except Low-Rise
Residential Buildings, on AHU functions and design.
• Know how specific components can address application requirements, with arrangements
optimized for job requirements, thermal performance, and acoustical performance.
• Deliver the performance you have designed with a well-functioning control system.

HVAC Design Fundamentals
Cold Air
Warm Air
Return Air
When bringing more outdoor air into the air handler to satisfy the ventilation requirements of
ASHRAE Standard 62.1, it increases the likelihood of air stratification. If a layer of freezing air
moves through the air handler, it can damage unprotected, hydronic cooling and heating coils.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 19
HVAC Design Fundamentals
Filter Contaminants
Particulate Filter Guidelines
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and ASHRAE recommend that the concentration of
particulates in the air not exceed 0.05 mg/m3 (measured as an annual mean). This guideline is
established in an EPA PM-10 standard which focuses on smaller particulates (<10 microns) that
are likely responsible for adverse health effects because of their ability to reach the lower regions
of the respiratory tract.
ASHRAE Standard 62.1 and the U.S. Green Building Council LEED rating system emphasize the
importance of including appropriate filters in the air handling system to effectively control
particulate contaminants. Both establish minimum requirements for filter performance applied
within a commercial building based on ASHRAE Standard 52.2, Method of Testing General
Ventilation Air-Cleaning Devices for Removal Efficiency by Particle Size. This standard
establishes a test procedure for evaluating the performance of air-cleaning devices as a function
of particle size (0.3 to 10 microns). A minimum efficiency reporting value (MERV) is assigned to a
filter based on its efficiency in three different particle-size ranges (0.3 to 1 microns, 1 to 3
microns, and 3 to 10 microns). A higher MERV rating indicates a greater ability to remove high
quantities of small particles from air.
ASHRAE Standard 62.1 recommends a minimum MERV 6 filter, while the USGBC LEED rating
system recommends a minimum MERV 8 during the construction cycle and MERV 13 during
normal operation. National, state, or local codes established by government bodies or
occupational groups may dictate more specific or stringent filtration requirements.
Selecting the appropriate filter relies on understanding the particles that need to be filtered and
their size. The following table provides design guidance for which filter option should be applied
in your air handler.

HVAC Design Fundamentals
Water Management
Cooling coils collect water from the passing air stream as they cool and dehumidify it. If not
properly addressed, this condensed moisture encourages mold, mildew, and other
microorganisms to colonize and breed. To reduce the likelihood of microbial growth:
• Reduce moisture carryover by sizing the cooling coils for proper airflow velocities. Trane coils
can be sized for velocities in excess of 625 fpm without moisture carryover, depending on air
conditions, coil size, and coil-fin type and spacing. See “Face-Velocity Limits for Moisture
Carryover,” p. 120.
• Specify drain pans sloped in two planes to eliminate stagnant water conditions and to
promote positive drainage.
• Locate coils on the second level of a stacked air handler to provide adequate trapping height.
• Properly size condensate traps to ensure proper drainage. See figure below.
• Promote cleanability by providing adequate space around the unit, easily removable access
panels, and a solid steel liner to isolate insulation from the air stream and to facilitate
cleaning. Also, provide extended drain pans to allow for periodic cleaning.
• Condition the mechanical equipment room to prevent condensation on piping, ductwork,
mechanical equipment, and other surfaces.

Dehumidification
ASHRAE Standard 62.1 observes that “high humidities can support the growth of pathogenic or
allergenic organisms” and suggests that the relative humidity of the occupied space not exceed
60 percent. Higher humidities also require lower supply-air temperatures for thermal comfort.
Most climates require dehumidification to achieve this design goal. Dehumidification can be
accomplished by removing moisture from the air, that is, condensing the water vapor on cooling
coils.
However, cooling coils can over cool the occupied space when dehumidifying at sensible part-
load conditions. There are several ways to control to both humidity and temperature at part load
conditions.
• Use a VAV air handler versus a constant volume air handler. This can improve part load
dehumidification.
• Use desiccant dehumidification systems to dehumidify and control humidity to very tight
tolerances.
• Use a split dehumidification unit (SDU) to improve dehumidification by treating the
ventilation air separately.
• Use a dedicated outside air system (DOAS) to dehumidify the ventilation air.
• Use a reheat coil, which can be accomplished using recovered condenser heat energy or with
standard electric or hot water coils.
Humidification
Low relative humidity - below 30 percent - in an occupied space is also undesirable because it
requires higher supply-air temperatures for thermal comfort and promotes static electricity.
Raising the space humidity to an appropriate level requires a humidifier to inject water particles
into the passing air stream. To avoid promoting microbial growth, the unit design must assure
that the injected water is fully absorbed within the air handler without collecting on its walls or
components.
Three types of commercial humidifiers are generally used in central-station air-handling systems:
wetted media, atomized water, and steam. Of these types, ASHRAE Standard 62.1 prefers steam
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 23
HVAC Design Fundamentals
“as the moisture source for humidifiers.” The temperature and pressure properties of steam
make it easy to introduce directly into the passing air stream and encourages complete
absorption in a short distance. Trane standard humidifier sections incorporate all the distance
required for absorption to occur.
• Never position the humidification section immediately downstream of a housed fan or blow-
thru coil section.
• Extra dispersion distance may be needed if the humidification section is placed upstream of a
final filter or electric heat coil.
• Vertical airflow turns immediately upstream and downstream of the humidification section
necessitate a large section.
Trane sound power ratings cover eight octave bands (63–8000 Hz). Data is collected in one of
Trane’s ANSI 12.32-qualified reverberant rooms.
To determine the most cost-effective acoustical solution for a given application:
• Select the unit and predict the unit sound power using the TOPSS selection program.
• Project the sound to the space using TAP.
Optimize the unit sound (fan, plenums) with the path attenuation (ductwork and ceiling) for the
lowest first cost that meets the sound requirements.
Table 2, p. 25 summarizes the noise reduction ideas accumulated by Trane engineers during four
decades of experience with central-station air handlers. Use the TOPSS program to predict the
effect of each idea.
However, for acoustically sensitive applications, we strongly recommend that you work with
your local Trane sales representative to find the most cost-effective solution that meets your job
requirements.

Application Considerations
The first things to consider when selecting an air handler for any given application include:
• Design. Which overall system design best suits the required function?
• Arrangements. What is the best section arrangement for the specified function and layout?
• Components. Which components should be selected to support the function, layout, and
arrangement of the application?
Single-Path Design
Single-path AHUs rely on one outdoor air path. Depending on application requirements, that
path may provide ventilation air only or both ventilation air and economizing air for natural, non-
mechanical cooling. Components for filtering and tempering the air are arranged in series. The
single-path layout can accommodate passive or powered return- and/or exhaust-air paths as well
as energy recovery.

Dual-path AHU layouts provide two air paths. Like a single-path design, dual-path designs can
incorporate basic outdoor air, recirculation, exhaust-air, and energy-recovery functions.
However, one path is dedicated to handling ventilation air to specifically address ASHRAE
Standard 62.1 requirements.
The typical dual path air handler configuration consist of the top air path sized for the minimum
ventilation requirement for the system; the bottom half of the air handler is sized for the full
system flow which primarily treats the return air. The two airstreams are mixed before being
delivered to the space prior to entering the supply fan. This arrangement is used for constant
volume or VAV systems that at design require the supply air to be 25-50 percent outdoor air.Each
path is provided with its own air treatment components such as filters and heating and cooling
coils.

For more design options, see SYS-APM004–EN Dehumidification in HVAC Systems Applications
Engineering Manual.
Application considerations:
• Reduces or eliminates reheat requirements, while providing an effective means of
dehumidification for loads with low sensible-heat ratios (high latent cooling requirements)
• Avoids increasing supply-fan static pressure due to high pressure drop components in the
ventilation air stream (increases latent cooling and filtration capacity without increasing fan
size)
• Permits downsizing of the ventilation-path components
• Enables compliance with the ASHRAE Standard 62.1 requirement for measuring outdoor
airflow without significantly increasing the first cost of the air handler

Application Considerations
Draw-Thru Arrangements
A draw-thru AHU arrangement places the coils and filters upstream of a ducted supply fan. It can
be single- or dual-path.
Horizontal Draw-Thru
Accepted system design practices are generally the only restrictions in a horizontal draw-thru
application. However, certain application rules must be followed to promote proper airflow
through filters and coils.

Vertical Draw-Thru
Trane air handlers in a vertical draw-thru arrangement typically result in a shorter footprint than
horizontal draw-thru units. This arrangement stacks a fan on top of a vertical coil section. When
designing an air handler in this configuration:
• The bottom deck must be equal to or longer than the fan section to avoid creating a
“cantilever” effect.
• A vertical draw-thru fan performance curve should be used to account for the airflow
impingement by a coil installed in a vertical coil section.

Blow-Thru Arrangements
This type of AHU arrangement places the cooling coil downstream of the supply fan.
Single-Zone Blow-Thru
This type of arrangement can provide only one supply-air temperature from the unit. To promote
proper air distribution through each section and to reduce the risk of moisture carryover, certain
application considerations apply based on the fan type.
Figure 16. Single-zone blow-thru arrangement
Stacked Units
A stacked AHU arrangement can be either draw-thru or blow-thru. It places the air handler
sections on top of each other. This strategy can significantly reduce the length of the unit and
provide better acoustical performance, yet has very little effect on unit static pressure drops.
Application considerations:
• Stacked section weight must not exceed the maximum stacking weight of the casing.
• Ductwork and dampers must not interfere with stacked sections.
• Upper-deck sections cannot overhang lower sections.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 29
Application Considerations
• Intermediate support brackets should be used if the width of the upper deck is less than that
of the bottom deck.
Building Pressurization
Return fans and exhaust fans are used to maintain building pressurization. A Trane air handler
can include either of these components. To better understand the differences between exhaust-
fan and return-fan systems, consult your local Trane sales engineer or refer to the Trane
applications engineering manual, Building Pressurization Control (AM-CON-17).

operation, including return duct, exhaust duct, and exhaust damper.
30 CLCH-PRC022F-EN

• Control the return fan to keep the outdoor/indoor static pressure differential within design
limits.
• Control the mixing box dampers to prevent all of them from closing simultaneously;
otherwise, serious equipment damage could result.

Application Considerations:

• Set up system for maximum delivery at 100 percent OA economizer mode. Turn on all remote
exhaust fans. Measure the space static pressure, and adjust barometric relief damper to
produce a slight positive space pressure.
• Only when the unit is at or near 100 percent OA (return air damper is closed) will the exhaust
section become sufficiently pressurized to open the barometric damper.
Dehumidification
Excessive humidity in buildings can encourage mold and mildew growth and thermal
discomfort. To cost effectively address these issues, first isolate the conditioned space from the
unconditioned space. (See Trane applications engineering manual, Managing Building Moisture,
SYS-AM-15.) Next, remove the humidity.
The two primary humidity sources in most buildings are people and outdoor air. In any coil-
based HVAC system, it is the cooling coil that dehumidifies the air. This coil must be on and air
must pass through it for dehumidification to occur. In Trane air handler enhanced
dehumidification units, the priority for the cooling coil is humidity control. Temperature control is
secondary and is generally provided by a separate reheat source.
Dehumidification can be obtained using:
• CDQ™ (Cool, Dry, Quiet) units with desiccant dehumidification wheels
• Series, coil run-around loops
• Split dehumidification units (SDU)
Free reheat options with dehumidification include:
• Hot water heat-recovery coils
• Refrigerant heat-recovery H coils

Energy Recovery
Trane air handlers offer high-performance solutions for airside energy recovery:
• Total energy recovery wheels
• Run-around coil loops
• Air-to-Air plate frame heat exchangers
These technologies transfer energy between the exhaust and outdoor air streams. Total energy
recovery wheels transfer both sensible and latent energy between the air streams, while the coil
loop transfers sensible energy.
Energy-recovery arrangements:
• Reduce operating costs.
• Can reduce first cost by allowing downsizing of chillers and boilers.
Energy-recovery systems can offer excellent energy savings when properly applied. Economic
considerations must be carefully evaluated to determine the payback period of any energy-
recovery system.

As the return air enters the unit, a portion is recirculated through the recirculation air damper and
the remainder goes through the wheel and is exhausted to maintain the required building
pressure. Outdoor air enters an outdoor-air damper, then goes through the wheel and mixes with
return air. During the economizing mode, the energy wheel is not used, and both wheel bypass
dampers are open to allow up to 100-percent outdoor and exhaust airflow.
If the energy wheel module is used in a VAV system or in a unit that supplies cold supply air,
modulating the exhaust-air bypass damper at the wheel can prevent the air from overheating
during onset of the heating mode. If frosting conditions exist, modulating the outdoor-air bypass
damper at the wheel can prevent vapor in the exhaust air from freezing on the wheel. If bypass
frost control is used as freeze protection for the wheel, add a blender module to adequately mix
the outdoor and exhaust air streams. If bypass frost control is not used, add outdoor-air preheat
or return-air reheat.

Coil loops offer complete separation of the air streams, thus eliminating any risk of cross-
contamination. Loop components include the coils, a pump, expansion tank, and a three-way
valve or variable-frequency drive (VFD). The expansion tank accommodates expansion and
contraction of the internal fluid. The three-way valve or VFD modulates coil capacity. To prevent
moisture in the exhaust air from freezing on the exhaust coil, the three-way valve can divert the
warm fluid returning from the exhaust coil to the supply side of the coil.
Application considerations:
• Typical coil-loop effectiveness ranges from 45 to 65 percent with equal airflow and no
condensation. Adhere to standard guidelines regarding coil construction, based on
conditions. (See Trane catalog COIL-DS-1 and engineering bulletin COIL-EB-19 for more
information.)
• Coil performance and airside pressure drops can be determined using Trane selection tools.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 39
Application Considerations
then goes through the ATA heat exchanger and mixes with return air. During the economizing
mode, the ATA heat exchanger is not used, and bypass dampers are open to allow up to 100
percent outdoor and exhaust airflow. The center bypass dampers can be selected for either the
outside air or exhaust air path, but not both.
If the ATA heat exchanger is used in a VAV system or in a unit that supplies cold supply air,
modulating the exhaust-air bypass damper at the ATA heat exchanger can prevent the air from
overheating during onset of the heating mode. If frosting conditions exist, frost avoidance
dampers that block part of the outdoor air face of the exchangers close to minimize frosting
potential. Frost control can also be achieved by modulating bypass dampers placed on the
outside air side versus the exhaust side. If outside air bypass is used, freeze protection needs to
be applied to any downstream hydronic coils.

Acoustics
Designers are often challenged to select and arrange the air handler components so that the
inlet, discharge and casing-radiated fan generated sound power levels help create a quiet space.
To accomplish this, the designer must choose the right fan and determine whether additional
unit attenuation is necessary.

Components and Options
Performance air handlers adopt a ‘building-block’ approach to air-handling design. Each
‘building block’ or section contains one or more components that serve a specific purpose
unique to each application. The required function, layout, and arrangement of the air-handling
system determines which sections must be included for a particular application.
Access/Blank/Turning Section
Access or blank sections can provide access to internal components for cleaning, maintenance,
and service or to promote proper airflow through the unit.
A turning section is a blank section that alters the direction of airflow and reduces turbulence. It
can also serve as an effective sound attenuator. When compared to a field-mounted, rectangular
duct silencer, the turning section is less expensive to install, has a lower pressure drop, and
provides more predictable performance. Perforated lining in the turning module attenuates mid-
to high-frequency sound.
N o t e : Only large and extra-large blank sections can be selected as turning sections.
Blender
Blender sections contain air-mixing baffles, or blenders, that rotate the passing air streams,
boosting their velocity for improved mixing. It is usually placed immediately downstream of a
mixing box section, and should always be positioned upstream of filters and coils. The following
chart documents blender performance at a downstream coil entering air temperature of 55ºF and
return-air temperatures of 70ºF and 75ºF.
Figure 32. Use blenders for coil protection Figure 33. Blender performance with 55ºF leaving air temperature
Application considerations:
• Blender face velocity should be in the range of 500 to 2000 fpm for proper mixing.
• When operated at temperatures within its design range, a blender may eliminate the need for
preheat.
• Space is required both upstream and downstream of the blender to allow complete air
mixing. The standard design of the blender section satisfies these spacial requirements.
• Select the mixing box such that the dampers are positioned at the top, back, or bottom when
used with a blender.

Coils
3/8-inch,1/2-inch, and 5/8-inch Coils
Figure 34. Coil with copper header Figure 35. Coil with cast iron header
Trane offers 3/8–inch, 1/2–inch, and 5/8–inch coils in a variety of sizes, arrangements, and
materials that allows the coil to be optimized for pressure drop and capacity requirements.
Published coil performance is certified in accordance with AHRI Standard 410 and meets CRN
(Canadian Registration Number) standards.
Trane is at the leading edge of coil technology. Through extensive laboratory testing and
numerous job-site installations, Trane has developed unique fin surfaces for its coil offerings.
These enhanced fin surfaces have superior heat transfer characteristics and allow greater
velocities of air to move through the cooling coil without causing moisture carryover.
The industry is familiar with the 500-fpm limit through a cooling coil as a “rule of thumb” to
safeguard against moisture carryover. However, some applications have tight dimensional
constraints that require high coil face velocities. Trane fin designs extend this limit in excess of
625 fpm, depending upon air conditions, coil size, and coil-fin type, and spacing. Tested data for
moisture carryover is incorporated in the Trane Official Product Selection System (TOPSS™). In
cases where moisture carryover is possible, the TOPSS program alerts you to this fact with a
moisture carryover warning. See “Face-Velocity Limits for Moisture Carryover,” p. 120 for
moisture carryover curves.
Coil options include but are not limited to the following:
• Two- to eight-row, 1/2-inch OD (outside diameter) chilled water or refrigerant coils
• Two- to 10-row, 5/8-inch OD chilled water or refrigerant coils
• One- or two-row 5/8-inch OD hot water coils
• One- to eight-row, 3/8-inch OD water coils
• Four, six, and eight-row, 3/8-inch refrigerant coils
• Two-row, 1/2-inch OD hot water coils
• One-row, 1-inch OD distributing-type steam coils
• Half, full, and dual-serpentine, circuited water coils
• Full face, split face, and intertwined circuited refrigerant coils
A variety of fin surfaces are also available, with the following options:
• Variable fin spacing on all fin types to fine-tune coil capacity and air-pressure drop
• Aluminum Delta-Flo™ H and Prima-Flo™ H fins that maximize the heat transfer and moisture
carryover limits of the coils
• Aluminum Delta-Flo E and Prima-Flo E fins that minimize the coil air-pressure drop
• Aluminum Omega-Flo™ H fins
• Copper 5/8-inch Prima-Flo and 1-inch Sigma-Flo™ fins for corrosion protection

Staggered Coils
Staggered coils are coil sections where the coil is roughly split in half, then offset and slightly
overlapped. This creates two shorter coils with about 20 percent more overall face area available,
all housed in a single section.
Staggered coils offer certain advantages over conventional coils. In applications with space
restrictions, a staggered arrangement gives significantly more favorable coil pull. The reduction
in required service area is about 40 percent of the original distance needed. (For Service
Clearance Recommendations, see CLCH-SVX07*-EN Performance Climate Changer™ Air
Handlers Installation, Operation and Maintenance manual.) Perhaps the largest benefit is a 20
percent increase in face area when compared to conventional coil sizes for the same unit size. For
jobs where coil face velocity is a limiting factor, this allows the entire unit to be sized smaller for
significant cost and footprint savings.
Staggered coils are available as standard with the following:
• Indoor or outdoor Performance CSAA air handlers
• Unit sizes 21 through 120
• Heating and cooling applications
• Coil types: 5W, D1, D2, W, WD, 5D (5/8-inch tube diameter water coils)
• Removable service panels on both sides for both coils
• Doors on both sides
• Marine lights
• Pipe cabinets
• Extended drain and vent
• No drain pan for heating application
N o t e : Like conventional coils, all piping is to be supplied by the contractor. Staggered coils
require some internal unit piping to reach the air leaving side coil. Also, any piping
inside the unit airstream needs to have insulation to prevent condensate buildup and
carryover. Consult CLCH-SVX07*-EN Performance CSSA IOM for more detailed
information.

External piping cabinets are required on both the IFB coil and the section immediately

units with vertical IFB coils, an access door must be included in the downstream section to
facilitate field piping of the supply and return connections on the coil.
It is recommended that a factory selection of a coil be made based on scheduled performance
prior to configuring a unit with an IFB coil, so as to determine whether the unit should be
configured around an integral face-and-bypass coil or a vertical integral face-and-bypass coils.
Drain Pans
• G40 galvanized or 201 stainless steel drain pans sloped
in two directions to assure positive drainage helps
prevent corrosion.
• Drain pans that can extend beyond the cooling coil for
periodic cleaning are standard options.
• A variety of cooling coil fin options, including the high-
efficiency H-fin design, are available. These fins allow
for coil selections with face velocities in excess of
625 fpm without moisture carryover.
• UV-C lights help preventing mold, bacteria and viruses
from reproducing and also maintains or improve the
system efficiency. Factory engineering and
UV-C lights installation allows us to maximize the
benefits of UV technology without jeopardizing the
expected reliability and safety of the equipment.
Dampers
Face-and-Bypass Dampers
Designed to divert airflow around a coil, the face-and-bypass damper can be used to control
humidity or provide freeze protection for hydronic coils. Face-and-bypass dampers are available
in two module configurations, internal and external.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 47
Components and Options
Application considerations:
• To ensure full airflow coverage across downstream coil banks, provide extra distance after
the modified-size coil section.
• Consider the effect of reduced bypass area, higher velocities, and higher pressure drops
when designing internal face-and-bypass configurations that require 100-percent bypass.
External face-and-bypass dampers may be better suited for these configurations.

Components and Options
The bell-mouth inlet of each damper guides air uniformly through a flow-sensing ring that
accurately measures total and static pressure from 100 percent of nominal airflow down to 300
fpm through the damper. The damper assembly’s ventilation control module (VCM) produces a
2-to-10-Vdc signal that is proportional to airflow, recalibrates itself once every 60 seconds, and
automatically adjusts for temperature variations. Depending on unit size and controls
configurations Traq dampers can measure from 100 percent of design CFM, down to five percent
design CFM.
Application considerations:
• The Traq damper mixing box requires only one duct diameter of straight inlet duct (as much
as 80 percent less than other airflow monitoring techniques).
• Connecting a Traq damper equipped air handler to a building automation system, such as a
Tracer building management system, permits:
– Dynamic calculation of the outdoor air needed to adequately ventilate a multispace VAV
system and reset the outdoor-air setpoint accordingly to save energy.
– Trend logs and custom reports to document compliance with ASHRAE Standard 62.1.
Diffuser
A diffuser consists of pressure-equalizing baffles that are designed to
provide even airflow across components downstream of a fan. The
diffuser section is typically used immediately downstream of a
centrifugal fan in a blow-thru filter, coil application.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 51
Components and Options
Discharge Plenum
Before leaving the air handler, supply air can be ducted to a
discharge plenum section. The rapid air-stream expansion as it
passes into the plenum reduces turbulence and creates an acoustical
end reflection that dampens low-frequency sound. Perforated panels
can be selected as an additional attenuation option. Two
configurations enable supply-duct connections from any side:
• Vertical-mounted plenum sections mount atop an adjacent
section and can be increased 1.5 times or reduced 0.5 times to
standard height minimizing field duct transitions. Openings can
be factory- or field-cut.
• Horizontal-mounted plenum sections mount on the front of an
adjacent section. Openings can be factory- or field-cut.
Vertical and horizontal discharge plenum openings can be tailored to
the size, type and location to best fit the velocity and static pressure
requirements, improving energy efficiency and sound. Round,
rectangular, and bell mouth openings are all available.
Economizer
An economizer section, for outdoor use only, provides an exhaust
path for return air, allowing the system to provide natural, non-
mechanical cooling when outdoor air conditions are suitable.
Energy Recovery
Increased ventilation airflow requires more energy to heat or cool and can significantly affect
operating costs. Bringing in more fresh air when it is cold outside also increases the risk of coil
freeze-up. Trane airside energy-recovery solutions address both energy consumption and coil
protection by recovering heat from the exhaust air stream to pre-condition outdoor air entering
the building. Trane has many factory-packaged energy-recovery solutions including:
• Total energy recovery wheels to recover both sensible and latent energy.
• Coil-runaround loops to recover sensible energy.
• Air-to-air plate frame heat exchangers recover sensible energy.
Energy Wheels
The energy wheel section is a total-energy-recovery device; it
recovers both sensible and latent energy. It consists of a rotating
wheel that contains heat exchange media surfaces. A desiccant
material specifically designed for adsorption and desorption of water
vapor is permanently bonded into the heat exchanger matrix. The
wheel rotates between the outdoor- and return-air paths, whose air
streams are counter-flow.
Energy wheels are sized based on the ventilation air requirement and
can be applied in a 100 percent outdoor air unit or a recirculation
unit. Internal wheel-bypass dampers vary the effectiveness of the
wheel.
For more application information on energy recovery, refer to: SYS-
APM003-EN Trane applications manual.

Fans
An extensive array of fan types and options, including variable-frequency drives (VFDs) for
modulation in variable-air-volume systems, lets you optimize the fan to best fit not only the
airflow and static pressure requirements, but also the acoustical, efficiency, and discharge
requirements.
Plenum fan openings can be tailored to the size, type and location to best fit your velocity and
static pressure requirements improving energy and sound. Round, rectangular, and bell mouth
openings are all available.
Each fan is rated in accordance with Standard 430 of the Air Conditioning Heating and
Refrigeration Institute (AHRI) and all DWDI fans are AHRI Standard 430-certified to assure
published performance.
The following table summarizes and compares the characteristics and application considerations
of these fans. When evaluating the merits of each fan type for a given application, consider the

(a) Add duct takeoff losses from the plenum fan module to external static pressure; see Trane fan performance catalog CLCH-PRC008-EN for details.
(b) Same as previous note; the uniform discharge velocity of the plenum fan may eliminate the need for turns in supply-air ductwork and diffusers, suiting it
for installations with limited equipment room space.
(c) In draw-thru applications, fan curves assume three diameters of straight duct downstream of the fan. Refer to AMCA 201-02, Fans and Systems, for more
information when this assumption is not valid.
To verify that fan performance will satisfy design requirements, use the TOPSS™ selection
program. The AHRI Standard 430-certified fan curves include the fan section casing effect.
TOPSS also takes into account ductwork connections, air density, fan and motor heat, drive
losses, and use of high-performance (MERV 11 and higher) filters affect fan performance.

Filtration Options
Bag filter-entering side Bag filter — leaving side HEPA filter section
Air handlers can be equipped with a variety of filtration options, all tested in accordance with
ASHRAE Standard 52.2. The continuous operating range of both the high-efficiency filters and
the disposable prefilter is typically 0ºF to 150ºF, but can be as high as 200ºF. Available filters and
minimum efficiency reporting values (MERV) are:
• Two-inch permanent-MERV 2
• Two-inch disposable-MERV 5
• Two-inch and four-inch pleated media-MERV 8-15
• Eighteen-inch and 30-inch bag or 12-inch cartridge filters-MERV 11-15
• Two-inch and four-inch antimicrobial-treated filters-MERV 7
• HEPA
• Multiple side-loading and front-loading filter options
Application Considerations:
• Higher filter efficiencies cost more, but provide cleaner air and better system performance.
National, state, and local codes may also specify filter performance.
• Operating resistance to airflow (i.e. pressure drops). Filter resistance and first cost may
increase with efficiency.
56 CLCH-PRC022F-EN
Components and Options
• High filtration efficiencies sometimes require more space, which lowers velocity, and may
enlarge the air handler footprint.
• A high degree of filtration can lower cleaning costs in the occupied space.
• Exceeding the face velocity limit of the filter increases its resistance (as well as fan energy
consumption) and necessitates more frequent maintenance or replacement.
• Exercise special care to avoid moisture carryover whenever final filters are used. Never place
a blow-thru final filter section directly downstream of a cooling coil without providing an
intervening source of reheat (such as fan motor). Tests have shown that certain entering-coil
conditions can create water vapor that will collect on the final filter. The only known solution
for this intermittent application issue is two degrees of reheat.
• Treating filter media with an antimicrobial coating can reduce the likelihood of microbial
contamination. Trane coated pleated media filters can be treated with an antimicrobial
coating.
• Install bag filters with the pleats vertical to the floor of the unit.
• Provide easy access to encourage regular filter maintenance.
• High-efficiency filters and disposable pre-filters may be operated near 100 percent relative
humidity; however, they may not come in direct contact with water droplets.
• Keep filters dry.
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 57
Components and Options
Gas Heat
Gas heat can be an economical source of heat when compared to
traditional heat sources such as central plant boilers with hot water
or steam coils installed inside air handlers, or electric resistance
heating installed inside air handlers.
Gas heat can be a good heating option for any of the following
applications:
• Climates and applications with large heat loads
• Applications with high outside air requirements to comply with
ASHRAE Standard 62
• Buildings without a central boiler plant
• Remote locations where boiler capacity or water piping expense
is prohibitive
• Areas with relatively inexpensive natural gas or expensive
electricity
Application considerations:
• Gas heater must be applied in a blow-thru configuration to insure that combustion gases will
not enter the airstream due to the positive static pressure.
• Maximum temperature rise is 101° F.
• When reducing airflow, the control system should not allow the temperature rise through the
gas heat section to exceed the nominal at full airflow.
• On high altitude applications, derate the heating capacity (MBh) by 4 percent for every 1,000
feet over 2,000 feet.
Humidifier
ASHRAE Standard 62.1 suggests maintaining a relative humidity of
no less than 30 percent to provide a comfortable, healthy indoor
environment. The humidifier uses low-pressure steam distributors to
add moisture to the air. This can be accomplished by using either
building stream or an atmospheric steam generator. It includes
accessories such as valves, strainers, and traps. Factory mounting
within the air handler lowers the installed cost of the humidifier and
keeps moisture out of the supply duct.
Application considerations:
• Airflow through the humidifier must be horizontal and of relatively uniform velocity
(400 to 700 fpm).
• Do not locate the humidifier upstream of filters, gas heat, electric heat, or active cooling coils.
• Blow-thru applications with housed fans require at least a four-row coil between the fan and
humidifier modules. The diffuser alone is unacceptable.
• To prevent condensate formation, the relative humidity leaving the humidifier should not
exceed 83 percent. Contact your local Trane sales engineer for application-specific guidance.
• The required dispersion distance is designed into the humidifier section.
• Vertical airflow turning immediately upstream and downstream of the humidifier section
requires a large turning section.
58 CLCH-PRC022F-EN
Components and Options
Inlet Hood
Inlet hoods include a moisture eliminator. Refer to tables in
Performance Data chapter for maximum allowable inlet hood airflow
limits.
Many specifications require that there be a minimum distance
between the point that outside air enters an air handler and the roof
of a building. This distance is to minimize the possible introduction
of contaminants into the conditioned air. ASHRAE 62 recommends
that there be at least 9 inches (or 8 inches above maximum snow
depth) separation from the roof to the outside air intake, however,
some specifications, specifically for units in the health care industry
require at least 36 inches of separation distance. When configuring
and air handler, ensure that the unit in conjunction with a roof curb
will meet the specifications requirements on separation distance.
Application considerations:
• The Traq damper mixing box requires only one duct diameter of straight inlet duct (as much
as 80 percent less than other airflow monitoring techniques).
• Connecting a Traq damper equipped air handler to a building automation system, such as a
Tracer building management system, permits:
– Dynamic calculation of the outdoor air needed to adequately ventilate a multispace VAV
system and reset the outdoor-air setpoint accordingly to save energy.
– Trend logs and custom reports to document compliance with ASHRAE Standard 62.1.
• For indoor units, an additional mixing box can be used as an economizer to provide an
exhaust path for return air, allowing the main mixing box to provide natural, non-mechanical
cooling when outdoor air conditions are suitable.
• For outdoor units, and economizer section can be used to provide a path for outside air,
return air and exhaust air in a single section.
• Use freeze protection for coils downstream of the mixing box when incoming outdoor air is
below 35ºF (see “Protect Coils from Freezing,” p. 19).
The economizer meets or exceeds all mandatory requirements prescribed by Title 24,
including but not limited to:
– 5-year parts only warranty
– Successfully tested to 60,000 actuations
– Less than 10 cfm/sq.ft. of damper leakage at one inch w.g. per AMCA 500L
CLCH-PRC022F-EN 59
Components and Options
Multizone
The multizone module can include a cooling coil, heating coil, and
dampers or bypass and dampers with multiple zones. It can be split
into either one deck or two decks, each with a separate air stream.
The “cold” deck cools one air stream and the “hot” deck heats
another air stream. Multizones can be ordered without the hot deck
option to be used for bypass air. The damper then mixes these air
streams to achieve a certain mixed-air temperature. The damper is
divided into segments so that one AHU can deliver multiple supply
air temperatures. Baffles ensure equal pressure drops through each
deck of the unit.
The multizone module is always used in a blow-thru arrangement
and is typically placed directly downstream of the supply fan.
N o t e : The number of zones that one multizone AHU can supply
varies by unit size. Be aware that ASHRAE Standard 90.1 does
not allow for multizone configurations without bypass for new
construction.
Silencers
Controlling noise at its source is the most cost-effective solution for
providing quiet comfort in the space. Source attenuation can
eliminate the need for duct-mounted silencers and thereby lower fan
operating costs. The key to a quiet design is to know which options
and layouts have a sound source that achieves the target noise
criterion (NC) level when reduced by space attenuation. It all starts
with accurate, tested sound data, and Trane has the most complete
sound power data in the industry.
The design process involves predicting the unit sound power and
projecting it into the space, then optimizing the path attenuation
(ductwork, ceilings) and the unit sound (fans, plenums) to get the
lowest cost system that meets the requirements. Designing the right
unit is a matter of experience and solid acoustical data. Obviously,
the quieter the sound source, the less path attenuation is needed in
the sound paths. Minimizing the sound source, using a quieter fan, or
using more source attenuation increases the initial cost of the air
handler, but is generally offset by significant path-reduction cost
savings.

Coil Circuiting
Refrigerant coil circuiting is first defined by how the distributors are arranged on the coil and
then by the number of tubes on the coil being fed refrigerant.
Distributor Arrangement
The term standard circuiting means the number of distributors used on a coil is the minimum
required to meet capacity. If more than one distributor is required, then the coil is horizontally
split so sections of the coil can be de-energized to unload the coil.
The term horizontally split circuiting means that at a minimum, each coil (or each coil in a bank)
will have two or more distributors per coil. As each coil is horizontally split, sections of the coil
can be de-energized to unload the coil.
The term intertwined circuiting means that at a minimum each coil (or each coil in a bank) will
have two or more distributors per coil. Since each distributor is circuited from the top to the
bottom of the coil, the full face of the coil remains energized even if a circuit is de-energized to
unload the coil. If four distributors are used on a coil, then the coil is first horizontally split, with
the top half of the coil intertwined using two distributors, and the bottom half of the coil
intertwined using the other two distributors.
Distributor Circuiting
The terms full, half, and quarter refer to the number of coil tubes being fed refrigerant by each
distributor of that coil. For example, full means that each tube in one row of the coil is being fed
refrigerant from the distributor(s), while half means every other tube in a row is being fed.
Circuiting Example: Table 137, p. 115 lists standard distributor arrangements (minimum number
or distributors) for UF coils. On a size 12 unit, 6-row coil with half circuiting (every other tube in a
row being fed), there is one distributor, with 12 tubes in one row of the coil being fed refrigerant.
Circuiting data is show by unit size and coil rows.

Each air handler has a rated nominal airflow (for example, 1500 cfm for a size 3). This nominal
airflow is a quick guide to figure unit size requirements. Although this is the nominal airflow of a
given unit, each unit is capable of producing more, until something limits the ability of the unit to
meet this higher airflow requirement such as coil face velocity, filter face velocity, or the outside
air inlet hood eliminator velocity.
The eliminator in the inlet hood is rated to a maximum outside airflow. Above this limit, there is a
high probability of bringing rain, water or snow into the unit, which could migrate to the
conditioned space below. When selecting units for your application, remember not to undersize a
unit to the point that the inlet hood eliminators can not handle the outside air cfm requirements.
The following table shows the maximum airflow for inlet hoods.
