General Information
Unit Description Figure 2. CGAM slant 20 to 35 ton configuration
The CGAM units are scroll type, air-cooled, liquid chillers,
designed for installation outdoors. The 20-35 ton units
have a single independent refrigerant circuit, with two
compressors per circuit. The 40 ton and larger units have
2 independent refrigerant circuits, with two compressors
per circuit. The CGAM units are packaged with an
evaporator and condenser.
Note: Each CGAM unit is a completely assembled,
hermetic -compressors packaged unit that is
factory-piped, wired, leak-tested, dehydrated,
charged and tested for proper control operations
prior to shipment. The chilled water inlet and outlet
openings are covered for shipment.
The CGAM series features Trane's exclusive Adaptive
Control logic with CH530 controls. It monitors the control
variables that govern the operation of the chiller unit.
Adaptive Control logic can correct these variables, when
necessary, to optimize operational efficiencies, avoid
chiller shutdown, and keep producing chilled water.
Each refrigerant circuit is provided with filter, sight glass,
electronic expansion valve, and charging valves on the
CGAM. Figure 3. CGAM “V” 40 to 70 ton configuration
The evaporator is a brazed plate heat exchanger which is
equipped with a water drain and vent connections in the
water piping.The condenser is an air-cooled slit or
serpentine fin coil.
The condensers are available in three configurations
depending on the tonnage of the unit. Units may be
referred to the size by the condenser configuration. The
three configurations are slant, V and W.

recovery option. See “Partial Heat Recovery
Components,” p. 100 for locations.

Partial Heat Recovery Freeze Avoidance

The heat recovery condenser is insulated and a factory-
installed heater is installed and will protect the heat
exchanger from freezing in ambient temperatures down to
-20°F (-29°C).
When the ambient temperature drops to approximately
39°F (3.9°C) the thermostat energizes the heaters.
Note: The inlet and outlet piping should be protected
against freezing by one of the following methods:
• Install heat tape on all field-installed water piping.

OR
• Add freeze inhibiting fluid to the partial heat recovery
water loop.

Refrigerant Cycle Figure 69. Pressure/enthalpy curve

The refrigeration cycle of the Model CGAM chiller is

Refrigerant evaporation occurs in the brazed plate
evaporator. Metered refrigerant vaporizes as it cools the
chilled water or liquid flowing through the evaporator
passages. The refrigerant vapor leaves the evaporator as
superheated gas. State Point 1.
Refrigerant vapor generated in the evaporator flows to the
compressor suction manifold where it enters and flows
across the compressor motor windings to provide cooling.
The vapor is then compressed in the compressor scroll
chambers and discharged. Oil from the compressor sump
lubricates the bearings and seals the small clearances
between the compressor scrolls. Refrigerant vapor is
discharged to the air-cooled condenser at State Point 2.
After the refrigerant vapor condenses into liquid (State
Points 3 and 4) it is returned to the evaporator (State Point
5) where the refrigerant again flashes into vapor and the
refrigeration cycle repeats.

This window lists the active and inactive (history)
diagnostics. There can be up to 60 diagnostics, both active
and historic. For example, if there were 5 active
diagnostics, the possible number of historic diagnostics
would be 55. You can also reset active diagnostics here,
(i.e., transfer active diagnostics to history and allow the
chiller to regenerate any active diagnostics).
Resetting the active diagnostics may cause the chiller to
resume operation.
The Active and History diagnostics have separate tabs. A
button to reset the active diagnostics displays when either
tab is selected.

Configuration View
This view is under the CH530 tab and displays the active
configuration and allows you to make changes to the unit
configuration. Configuration View allows you to define the
chiller's components, ratings, and configuration settings.
These are all values that determine the required installed
devices, and how the chiller application is run in the main
processor. For example, a user may set an option to be
installed with Configuration View, which will require
devices to be bound using Binding View. And when the
main processor runs the chiller application, the
appropriate steps are taken to monitor required inputs and
control necessary outputs.
Any changes made in the Configuration View, on any of the
tabs, will modify the chiller configuration when you click
on the Load Configuration button (located at the base of
the window). The Load Configuration button uploads the
new configuration settings into the main processor.
Selecting the Undo All button will undo any configuration

Pump Package Maintenance

Rust Prevention
Pumps not immediately placed into service, or removed
from service and stored, must be properly prepared to
prevent excessive rusting.
• Pump port protection plates must not be removed until
the pump is ready to connect to the piping.
• Rotate the shaft periodically (at least monthly) to keep
rotating element free and bearings fully functional.
• For long term storage (3 months or longer), prevent
internal rust buildup and possibility of freezing by
performing the following steps:
• Remove the plugs at the top and bottom of the
casing.
• If water is to be drained:
• Disconnect evaporator and piping heaters.
• Drain or blow out all water.
• As an optional step, it is acceptable to rustproof or
pack the casing with moisture absorbing material
and cover the flanges.
When returning pumps to service
• Remove drying agent from the pump, if used.
• Reinstall plugs at the top and bottom of the casing.
• If water had been drained:
• Refill water.
• Reconnect evaporator and piping heaters.
