Trane Series R™ chiller model RTAC oers reliable
performance under normal operating circumstances. Under the
extraordinary circumstances of a power outage, Trane really
shines through.
While other manufacturers’ chillers can take up to 15 minutes
to restart –four to six minutes at best – the RTAC restarts
a compressor in as little as 56 seconds aer regaining a
power source.
If you’re like many Trane customers, Rapid Restart is
more than a matter of building comfort and occupant
convenience. Safety or quality control makes it imperative
to prevent overheating.
Rapid Restart requires no additional purchase: It’s simply one
more benefit to installing a Trane RTAC chiller.
The mechanics of superior protection
Many factors influence chiller restart times:
• Chiller Configuration
• Type of power loss (momentary brownout vs. blackout)
• Operation prior to restart attempt
• Stop to start timer of the chiller controller
• Chiller controller reboot time
• Chiller controller’s ability to manage diagnostics
• Time needed for chiller to achieve near full load capacity
Reduces thermal storage cost, too
The faster a chiller restarts, the smaller its chilled water tank
needs to be. For buildings that utilize chilled water storage,
the storage system can be smaller, less expensive and take up
less space
