Important Environmental Concerns
Scientific research has shown that certain man-made chemicals can affect the
earth’s naturally occurring stratospheric ozone layer when released to the
atmosphere. In particular, several of the identified chemicals that may affect
the ozone layer are refrigerants that contain Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon
(CFCs) and those containing Hydrogen, Chlorine, Fluorine and Carbon (HCFCs).
Not all refrigerants containing these compounds have the same potential impact
to the environment. Trane advocates the responsible handling of all
refrigerants-including industry replacements for CFCs such as HCFCs and HFCs.
Important Responsible Refrigerant Practices
Trane believes that responsible refrigerant practices are important to the
environment, our customers, and the air conditioning industry. All technicians
who handle refrigerants must be certified according to local rules. For the
USA, the Federal Clean Air Act (Section 608) sets forth the requirements for
handling, reclaiming, recovering and recycling of certain refrigerants and the
equipment that is used in these service procedures. In addition, some states
or municipalities may have additional requirements
that must also be adhered to for responsible management of refrigerants. Know
the applicable laws and follow them.
WARNING
Proper Field Wiring and Grounding Required!
Failure to follow code could result in death or serious injury. All field
wiring MUST be performed by qualified personnel. Improperly installed and
grounded field wiring poses FIRE and ELECTROCUTION hazards. To avoid these
hazards, you MUST follow requirements for field wiring installation and
grounding as described in NEC and your local/state electrical codes.
WARNING
Personal Protective Equipment Required!
Installing/servicing this unit could result in exposure to electrical,
mechanical and chemical hazards. Before installing/servicing this unit,
technicians MUST put on all Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) recommended
for the work being undertaken. ALWAYS refer to appropriate SDS sheets and OSHA
guidelines for proper PPE. When working with or around hazardous chemicals,
ALWAYS refer to the appropriate SDS sheets and OSHA guidelines for information
on allowable personal exposure levels, proper respiratory protection and
handling recommendations. If there is a risk of arc or flash, technicians MUST
put on all necessary Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) in
accordance with NFPA70E for arc/flash protection PRIOR to servicing the unit.
Failure to follow recommendations could result in death or serious injury.

Communication Link Wiring
The Symbio 210 controller communicates with the building automation system
(BAS) and with other controllers over a BACnet® MS\TP, BACnet IP, or BACnet
Zigbee (AirFi) communication links.
For instructions on BACnet MS\TP communication wiring, refer to the BACnet
Best Practices and Troubleshooting Guide (BAS-SVX51-EN).
A/C Power Wiring
Prior to connecting AC power to the controller:
- All wiring must comply with National Electrical Code™(NEC) and local codes.
- The recommended wire for AC power is 16 AWG copper wire, minimum.
- Refer to the next section for Transformer Recommendations.
WARNING
Hazardous voltage!
Disconnect all electric power, including remote disconnects before servicing.
Follow proper lockout/tagout procedures to ensure the power cannot be
inadvertently energized. Failure to disconnect power before servicing could
result in death or serious injury..
CAUTION
Injury and equipment damage!
Make sure that the 24 Vac transformer is properly grounded. Failure to do so
may result in personal injury and/or damage to equipment.
CAUTION
Equipment damage!
Complete input/output wiring before applying power to the controller. Failure
to do so may cause damage to the controller or power transformer due to
inadvertent connections to power circuits. Do not share 24 Vac between
controllers. Failure to do so may cause controller damage.
Transformer Recommendations
The Symbio 210 is powered with 24 Vac.
- AC transformer requirements; U.L. listed, Class 2 power transformer, 24 Vac ±15%. The transformer must be sized to provide adequate power to the Symbio 210 controller and inputs/outputs. Refer to the Symbio 210 Programmable Controller Installation, Operation, and Maintenance manual BAS-SVX084-EN for details on sizing.
- CE-compliant installations; the transformer must be CE marked and SELV compliant per IEC Standards.
NOTICE
Avoid Equipment Damage!
Sharing 24 Vac power between controllers could cause equipment damage. A
separate transformer is recommended for each Symbio 210. The line input to the
transformer must be equipped with a circuit breaker sized to handle the
maximum transformer line current. If a single transformer is shared by
multiple Symbio 210 units, then:
- The transformer must have sufficient capacity.
- Polarity must be maintained for every Symbio 210 powered by the transformer.
Important: If a technician inadvertently reverses polarity between
controllers powered by the same transformer, a difference of 24 Vac will occur
between the grounds of each controller.
The following symptoms could result:
- Partial or full loss of communication on the entire communication link.
- Improper function of Symbio 210 outputs.
- Damage to the transformer or a blown transformer fuse.
