Guys

I am trying to identify an old TRANE remote air cooled condensing unit but cannot seem to find anything on the internet.

All I need is to know is what the unit is rated for total cooling duty.

It's a twin circuit machine as follows:

ERAUF289BRBXX1XA4M1Nx1X2

Serial EKG4466

Year 1996

R22

Thanks in advance

Hi Frank.
I tried to find any relevant info within my archives.
But mine are either to early or later stuff.
Sorry I tried.

By the unit model, i guess the capacity is 289KW.
Does it make sense to you?

Frank, the closest I can get is a RAUF209R, which has a capacity of 279.9kW at 32°C ambient and 5°SST.

I can't find a 289B. Are you sure of the data?

Chemi, the numbers aren't necessarily the nominal capacity with Trane equipment, unfortunately.

Thanks Guys

I don't think that the machine is in excess of 250kW, based on it's physical size. It's about 2.2m wide, 2.5m long. The liquid line on each circuit is 7/8th and suction is 2+5/8th. There are 4 compressors but as I didn't take the acoustic housing off (it was covered in crap and I wasn't in overalls) I didn't get the comp nameplate details.

I have a photo of the machine nameplate but it just shows the numbers as I've put in post #1

Thanks but no luck,
As I see it you have two options, to check the compressors models or drop an email to Trane Golbey for the capacity.

I'm 1 step in front of you Chemi.....emailed Trane today asking them to quote for a replacement.
Once the quote us received, I should be able to determine the rating from the new model ☺

Frank,
Your client may also mysteriously receive a quote for the replacement, but at least you will have more information.
