CENTRAL PLANT PRODUCT GUIDE
CHILLERS TEMPORARY COOLINGCOOLING TOWERS PACKAGED SOLUTIONSSERVICES
The decision is yours... Every day, around the world,hundreds of building owners andoperators are making decisionsregarding replacement, upgrade orexpansion of chiller plant equipmentin existing buildings.
The reasons for these changes arenumerous. In some cases, chilled waterrequirements for buildings havechanged. This causes the existing chillerplant to operate in an inefficient range,or be unable to meet buildingrequirements.
In other cases, there may be changesrequired by declining reliability orefficiency due to equipmentobsolescence. Sometimes the need fora chiller upgrade or perhapsreplacement is influenced by a desire toimprove acoustics. There may berequirements to increase chilled waterproduction to meet indoor air qualityconcerns. In all of these cases, thebuilding owner or engineer can considerthe full range of chiller replacement andupgrade options from Trane.

Gas-powered chiller packageWater-cooled from 170-3950 tons CenTraVac™ chiller + Waukesha Enginator®
Design feature Customer benefitElectric coupling rather than mechanical • Allows remote installation of engine to create quiet chiller room and isolated soundcoupling between the chiller and the engine attenuation for the engine.
• Protects user from fuel price volatility by allowing engine-generator to be turned offand chiller to run on grid power.
• Minimizes refrigerant leaks and maintenance by eliminating shaft seal.• Chiller can operate independently when engine-generator is unavailable.• Engine-generator can be used as a backup power source for the entire building.• Simplifies installation: no onsite piping connections between engine and chiller, and
no industrial air compressor is required.Factory engineered control interface Protects chiller and engine from potentially damaging operating conditions.Generator inverter for variable frequency Industry-leading variable frequency chiller controls allow chiller to “drive” enginator invertor to
reduced speeds. Most engine-generators do not have an invertor—the Enginator does.Award-winning EarthWise™ CenTraVac™ chiller • Direct-drive has no gears to maintain and semi-hermetic compressor motor has
no shaft seal to maintain. Highest efficiency available in the industry. These options combine for the lowest total cost of ownership.
• Low-pressure refrigerant with lowest documented refrigerant leak rate. • Quiet operation with maximum sound pressure levels guaranteed and tested in the factory.
Waukesha Enginator® • Lean burn technology generates low emissions and fuel economy for low operating costs. • Optional catalytic converters further reduce emissions when required. • Multiple fuel options tailored to site needs and availability. Fuel systems can operate on low fuel
supply pressures.• Jacket water and exhaust heat recovery.• Optional heat recovery offsets heating needs or drive absorption chillers.
