Davidson, N.C., March 16, 2021 – Trane® – by Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT), a global climate innovator – is launching a number of new offerings to support customer demand, help address energy use and building efficiency while meeting stricter local and national regulations. The showcased solutions are designed to address carbon emissions and energy use through heat recovery and simultaneous cooling and heating.
“Trane takes a holistic approach to innovation by working closely with customers to help meet both their current and future needs — whether regulatory requirements, building electrification demands or greater sustainability,” said Manlio Valdes, vice president, Trane product management. “Each new offering supports a customer need as well as our commitment to reduce the carbon footprint of our customers by one gigaton by 2030.”
In addition to the new solutions available this quarter, Trane continues to innovate and enhance building management and automation systems that make it easier to manage buildings and energy use through integrated, easy to use systems.
Precedent® Hybrid Dual Fuel Heat Pumps for Light Commercial Applications: Lower carbon emissions and energy use with Trane® Precedent® Hybrid Dual Fuel light commercial heat pump rooftop units. Traditional gas heating geographies can now enjoy the benefits of hybrid technology. With adjustable auxiliary heating setpoint, the electric heat pump serves as the primary heating source while natural gas is activated only on an as needed basis. As customers shift to building electrification, Trane Precedent 3 – 10 Ton dual fuel heat pumps offer a viable replacement solution to natural gas while increasing energy efficiency and address carbon emissions. These units are available for quick delivery and installation in new construction or retrofit applications.
Trane ® Connected Service for VRF: Trane Connected Service for VRF helps reduce maintenance costs and increase peace of mind through system monitoring. One of the first offerings of its kind for VRF equipment, the agreement represents the first connected service offering for Trane. Trane Connected Service for VRF, which requires combining Trane / Mitsubishi Electric VRF equipment with a Trane Tracer® SC+ Building Automation System, enables automated remote inspections powered by proprietary analytics through Trane Connect™. The service agreement combines proactive remote check-ins and onsite scheduled maintenance to give building owners and facilities managers better control over their budget and their building.
This solution can help customers overcome the challenges of a lean maintenance staff or expertise deficiencies. It is ideal for applications in multiple markets including commercial real estate, hotels, multi-family high-rise, education, and assisted living/healthcare. Customers without connectivity, can upgrade to Tracer SC+ to access the benefit of the Connected Service for VRF offering.
Trane Cold Generator™ Scroll Chiller CICD Compact Series (20-85 Tons): The Trane Cold Generator™ Scroll Chiller CICD Compact Series provides reliable, cost-effective performance, and optimized capacity from a compact, modular unit with an overall footprint that is 27 percent smaller than similar products. It also features a heat recovery option. Contractors and engineers can select this solution to operate one chiller or integrate multiple units to right-size capacity for adequate cooling and redundancy. It is ideal for small or unusually shaped mechanical room configurations that pose a unique challenge for chiller retrofit and renovation projects. The modular aspect enables updating future chiller capacity if needed.
Motorized Impeller Fan Array: The new Trane Motorized Impeller Fan Array offers a small footprint that simplifies installations in older buildings or other locations featuring very small door openings. The systems’ redundancy helps to ensure ongoing performance should one fan in the array need troubleshooting. The easy-to-maintain fan is small enough to fit through double doors, simplifying set up and reducing installation costs. The array, which supports up to 15 fans, ensures a consistent airflow while multiple motors enable a smaller electrical load. Fan assembly motor and the inverter both come as “plug and play” components.
Upgrade to Tracer® SC+: Building owners and facilities managers can upgrade their current building automation system to Trane Tracer SC+ to gain better control over occupant comfort and energy efficiency. Tracer SC+ also allows for better lifecycle management of systems, remote access, increased productivity, and the easy-to-use Synchrony interface, helping customers realize savings in energy costs as well as operational costs.
Trane® / Mitsubishi Electric P Series Now Co-Branded: Mitsubishi VRF P-Series product line is now co-branded. This update follows a 2018 joint venture introducing Mitsubishi Electric Trane HVAC US LLC as a leading US provider of ductless and VRF systems. The P Series portfolio provides efficient solutions for comfort, flexibility and reliability for light commercial applications.
