Series R
Helical Rotary
Liquid Chiller
Model RTWB 200-700 kW
Trane introduces the new Series R
chiller for the medium-capacity water-
cooled market, the model RTWB. The
RTWB offers a high reliability, ease of
installation, and improved energy
efficiency, due to its advanced design,
its low-speed/direct-drive compressor,
and its proven performance.
The New Helical-Rotary Water-
Cooled Chiller: the RTWB
RLC-SLB001-E4
The main characteristics of the
RTWB are:
High reliability
High energy efficiency
Quiet operation
Compact size
Bolted construction
Dual independent refrigerant circuits
Adaptive Control
American Standard Inc. 2000
The Trane Company is the worlds
largest manufacturer of large helical-
rotary compressors. Extensive research
and development, testing, and
advanced manufacturing processes
provide a very reliable compressor.
Tens of thousands of commercial and
industrial installations worldwide have
proven that the Trane helical-rotary
compressor has a reliability rate of
greater than 99.5 percent in the first
year of operation.
How does Trane achieve world-class
standards? The Trane Series R chiller
uses a direct-drive, low-speed, semi-
hermetic compressor design, with only
four moving parts.
Because there are no gear-boxes, shaft
seals, or shaft alignment problems,
there is less chance of failure and thus
lower maintenance costs and fewer
service calls. In addition, the semi-
hermetic design means that the
compressor motor operates in a cool,
clean, constant-temperature
environment. This increases the motor
life. The Series R chiller utilizes the
most advanced controls in the chiller

industry. It features the Adaptive
Control
microprocessor, which has the

ability to keep the chiller operating and
producing cold water during extreme
operating conditions, when other
chillers would trip off.
The compact RTWB chiller is an
excellent choice for any retrofit or
replacement job. It is smaller than most
of the units it might replace and easier
to fit into existing buildings. All units fit
through a standard single door. For
extremely tight installations, the
standard bolt-together design allows
for easy unit disassembly.
Units come from the factory fully
charged with refrigerant and oil.
Extensive factory testing helps ensure
trouble free start-up, resulting in lower
installation costs and faster start-up.
Easy handling
The RTWB can be easily moved by using a fork lift, a crane and slings, or steel rolls.
Only three operations are needed
before starting the chiller:
Bring the power to the single
unit power connection point.
The control power transformer
is standard on the RTWB.
Connect the condenser and the
evaporator to the water circuit.
The RTWB is delivered standard
with flange connections.
Connect the water-flow switch to the
unit control module.

Tranes Adaptive Control
TM
microprocessor is the most advanced
chiller controller available in the air
conditioning industry. It offers internal
control logic that monitors the chillers
operation and keeps it running during
extreme operating conditions. While
controls on other chillers will shut
down machine operation, the Trane
Series R chiller will modulate system
components to keep the chiller
operating producing chilled water,
meanwhile continuing to optimize
chiller performance.
The unit control panel has the ability to
display information in many different
languages and includes diagnostics
and operating points.

The flexibility in the application of the
Series R chiller makes it ideal for office
buildings, hospitals, schools, retail
buildings, and industrial applications.
The water-cooled Series R chiller, with
its factory-installed unit control panel,
combines with a Trane Tracer
Summit building management
system form part a Trane Integrated
Comfort System (ICS). An ICS is a
building comfort system comprised of
Trane equipment, unit controllers, and
building management. The Trane ICS
provides comfort, efficiency, and
reliability, as well as single-source
warranty and service.
With Trane ICS, every component is
engineered to work as a complete
system. Efficiencies are higher because
the components are optimized to work
together. And owning the system is
easier because it is manufactured,
installed, and serviced by a single
source.
In the central plant, Trane Integrated
Comfort Systems offer chiller plant
optimization, including pumps and
cooling towers, monitoring, and
reporting.
