Tracer™ controls and display:
State-of-the-art control system
User-friendly TracerTM UC800 controls, with the TracerTM TD7 Color Touch Screen
Display and BACnet ™ or LonTalk® capabilities simplify the operation of RTHD
with AFD chillers. The Adaptive Control™ microprocessor monitors operation of
the chiller and keeps it running during extreme operating conditions, when other
controllers would typically shut the machine down.

EarthWise™ systems:
Responsible for the long run
Trane EarthWiseTM systems offer the best of all worlds: Its cooling
technology improves energy efficiency and reduces emissions, while
driving down costs for building owners. Designed around an energy-
efficient Trane chiller—such as AdaptiRTM RTHD with AFD—and
performance-optimizing controls, EarthWise systems use smaller fans,
narrow ductwork, fewer pumps and less plumbing. This reduces initial
material costs and lowers long-term operating costs. Trane builds
EarthWise systems to deliver responsible cooling, and sustains their
performance through a full lifecycle of building services.
Trane – by Trane Technologies (NYSE: TT), a global climate innovator – creates comfortable, energy efficient indoor
environments through a broad portfolio of heating, ventilating and air conditioning systems and controls, services,
parts and supply. For more information, please visit trane.com or tranetechnologies.com.

Outstanding chiller performance
AdaptiRTM RTHD with AFD achieves first-cost and on-going operational cost savings in real world applications, based
on the proven technology of RTHD, which in its fourth generation, remains one of the most robust chiller models on
the market today.
Superior part-load energy • Improved part-load energy efficiency reduces operating
and lifecycle costs. When compared to standard
efficiency with unrivalled constant-speed chiller designs, AdaptiRTM RTHD with AFD
offers a part-load efficiency improvement of 20-35%
while maintaining the same COP efficiency level.
quietest performance This will typically result in an annualized energy savings
of 10-15% in chiller energy consumption, giving a Return
