Features and Benefits Factory Testing for Assured Performance Trane provides laboratory-grade, calibrated performance testing on ARI approved test loops that proves the performance of the chiller tailored to your application. The test provides:
Trane believes centrifugal chiller testing is so important that we invested over $2 million in CenTraVac testing facilities. Testing is in accordance with ARI Standard 550 and calibration of instrumentation meets or exceeds the National Institute of Standards Technology (NIST). The industry has responded to the demand for more efficient chillers by developing machines with component mix-matching and many money saving options. Its possible that with the thousands of component combinations available a specific chiller has never been laboratory tested. To prove that your chiller will perform as promised, Trane offers factory performance testing, which you can witness. Trane offers two levels of CenTraVac performance testing:
Trane is part of the ARI 550 certification program. The selection program and machines bear the ARI seal of approval. Performance testing is a key part of this program. While the certification program is technically sound, a factory run test, with your machine on the test stand, is still the best way to confirm machine performance and a trouble- free start-up. The single package design of the CenTraVac chiller allows testing of each assembled chiller at the factory. Actually all components including the evaporator, condenser, compressor and control panel are tested before final assembly. After assembly, performance testing of the chiller can confirm proper operation and virtually eliminate jobsite start-up problems. During customer witnessed performance tests of Trane CenTraVac chillers, a nickel can be balanced on the edge of the compressor-motor assembly, demonstrating the extremely low vibrations generated by the unit while operating at full and part load conditions. |
