Features and
Benefits
State-of-the-Art, Precision Control
Microprocessor-based CH530 controls
monitor and maintain optimal
operation of the chiller and its
associated sensors, actuators, relays,
and switches, all of which are factory-
assembled and extensively tested.
Easy interface with computers hosting
Tracer Summit
building automation/
energy management systems allows
the operator to efficiently optimize
comfort system performance and
minimize operating costs.
PID (proportional integral derivative)
control strategy ensures stable, efficient
chilled water temperature control,
maintaining +/- 1°F (0.56°C) control by
proactively reacting to instantaneous
load changes of up to 50 percent.
Adaptive Control
attempts to maintain
chiller operation under adverse
conditions, when many other chillers
might simply shut down.
Easy-to-use operator interface displays
all operating and safety messages, with
complete diagnostics information, on a
highly readable panel with a scrolling
touch-screen display.
The RTHD features a complete range of
chiller safety controls.
Over 120 diagnostic and operating
points are available, with standard
displays including chiller current draw,
condenser pressure, and evaporator
pressure.
Reliability and Ease of Maintenance
Direct drive, low-speed compressor a
simple design with only three moving
parts provides maximum efficiency,
high reliability, and low maintenance
requirements.
Electronic expansion valve, with fewer
moving parts than alternative valve
designs, offers highly reliable
operation.
Suction gas-cooled motor stays
uniformly cool at lower temperatures
for longer motor life.
The Trane helical rotary compressor is
a proven design resulting from years of
research and thousands of test hours,
including extensive testing under
extraordinarily severe operating
conditions.
Trane is the worlds largest
manufacturer of large helical rotary
compressors, with tens of thousands of
commercial and industrial installations
worldwide demonstrating a reliability
rate of greater than 99 percent in the
first year of operation.
Operating and Life Cycle
Cost-Effectiveness
Electronic expansion valve enables
exceptionally tight temperature control
and extremely low superheat, resulting
in more efficient full-load and part-load
operation than previously available.
Precise compressor rotor tip clearance
ensures optimal efficiency.
Condenser and evaporator tubes use
the latest heat transfer technology for
increased efficiency.
The RTHD includes standard electrical
demand limiting.
Chilled water reset based on return
water temperature is standard.
High compressor lift capabilities and
tight chilled water temperature control
allow highly efficient system design
with minimal operational concerns.
Design capabilities include:
variable primary flow;
series chiller arrangements for
evaporator and/or condenser;
low evaporator and condenser flow.
