<p>Trane® Precedent™ 
3- to 10-ton light commercial rooftop units
When it comes to HVAC expenses, every dollar counts. From 
your initial investment to monthly utility costs and maintenance, 
a light-commercial rooftop unit can have a significant impact 
on your bottom line—which is why a Trane® Precedent™ light-
commercial rooftop unit can be the perfect choice.
No competing light-commercial rooftop unit has a lower installed cost than 
the Trane Precedent—and with its industry-leading efficiency and low 
maintenance requirements, no other unit has a lower total cost of ownership.
And once you’ve made the wise decision that a Trane Precedent light-
commercial rooftop unit is the right solution for your building, it’s good to 
know that no other light-commercial rooftop unit can be delivered as quickly 
as the Trane Precedent, with most units ready in as few as two weeks—order 
to ship.
The lowest costs. The highest efficiency. The fastest delivery time. For all 
these reasons and more, a Trane Precedent light-commercial rooftop unit 
isn’t just the perfect choice—it’s the only choice to extend the life of your 
building and improve the lives of those within it.
The right size for high comfort.  
The lowest installed cost and lowest total cost of ownership.

Most Trane Precedent 
rooftop units can be 
ready in as few as two 
weeks—the fastest 
delivery time in the 
industry—so your 
project doesn’t get 
delayed while waiting  
for equipment.

Ultra-high efficiency means ultra-low  
operating costs
Precedent ultra-high-efficiency models continue the  
Trane tradition of leadership in energy efficiency with  
these innovations:
• Trane eFlex™ variable-speed compressors and fans 
(available fall 2013) deliver the performance building 
occupants need, while also delivering the efficiency 
building owners want. By precisely matching output to the 
cooling demands of the space, Trane eFlex compressors 
and fans operate at their fastest levels when demand is 
high, and modulate to slower levels when demand is less, 
for an ultra-high Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER, which 
measures efficiency at peak output) and Integrated Energy 
Efficiency Ratio (IEER, a measurement of efficiency at 
variable workloads). The result: lower energy use and 
smaller energy bills.
• Trane eDrive™ direct-drive fans save energy and operate 
more quietly than competing units. These highly efficient 
fans feature a beltless design, which reduces maintenance 
over the lifetime of the unit and lowers operating costs.
Customized to fit your unique needs and  
delivered quickly
Because Trane recognizes that every building is different, we 
offer a wide range of factory-installed options on Precedent 
rooftop units, such as coated condenser coils, stainless steel 
drain pans, unit-mounted circuit breakers and more. Every 
Precedent unit can be customized to meet your exact needs,  
so you don’t have to compromise.
Factory-installed options are rigorously tested to dramatically 
reduce the amount of time and money spent installing and 
commissioning units in the field, as well as the chances for 
installation errors. Even the most highly configured Precedent 
units are ready in as few as two weeks—the fastest delivery 
time in the industry. You’ll spend less time waiting for your  
new Precedent rooftop unit and more time enjoying its  
cooling performance.
The Trane Human Interface Panel: More information, 
more effectively delivered 
The optional Trane Human Interface Panel (available fall 
2013) represents a breakthrough in unit controls, delivering 
comprehensive information about system performance on a 
large, easy-to-read color touchscreen display. Unlike competing 
displays, information shown on the Human Interface Panel is 
understandable at a glance—without requiring time-consuming 
decoding. Technicians can quickly and easily monitor important 
system operating parameters in real time, and compare current 
information with past performance—information that can be 
invaluable in keeping your Precedent rooftop unit working 
optimally. The Human Interface Panel also allows technicians to 
change certain system set points right from the panel, aiding in 
start-up, preventive maintenance tasks and troubleshooting.
Trane Intelligent Services for 24/7 peace of mind
The available Trane Intelligent Services (TIS) can monitor 
and evaluate real-time data from Precedent units around the 
clock, 365 days a year. If an immediate or potential problem 
is detected, Trane can notify the building operator or dispatch 
technicians to the equipment’s location. Continuous monitoring 
and expert data analysis can allow problems to be addressed 
quickly, reducing the likelihood that building occupant comfort 
will be impacted.
The right size for high comfort.  
The lowest installed cost and lowest total cost of ownership.
Trane eFlex variable-speed compressor and fan 
technology (Available fall 2013)  
Trane eFlex™ variable-speed compressors and fans 
deliver the performance building occupants need, while 
also delivering the efficiency building owners want. By 
precisely matching output to the cooling demands of 
the space, Trane eFlex compressors and fans operate at 
their fastest levels when demand is high, and modulate 
to slower levels when demand is less, for an ultra-high 
Energy Efficiency Ratio (EER, which measures efficiency 
at peak output) and Integrated Energy Efficiency Ratio 
(IEER, a measurement of efficiency at variable workloads). 
The result: lower energy use and smaller energy bills.
Trane eDrive direct-drive fan technology
Trane eDrive™ direct-drive fans save energy and operate 
more quietly than competing units. These highly efficient 
fans feature a beltless design, which reduces maintenance 
over the lifetime of the unit and lowers operating costs.
Variable air volume (VAV) option (Not shown)
Precedent rooftop systems offer both single-zone and 
multi-space VAV. ReliaTel™ controls can integrate with 
existing VAV solutions to interface with both Tracer™ and 
Tracker™  control platforms. Together, they deliver energy-
efficient solutions for every building need—and require 
minimal setup and commissioning. With the single-zone 
VAV option, the system modulates indoor fan and stage 
compressors as space temperature changes, for increased 
part-load efficiency and more precise temperature control.
Trane Human Interface Panel (Available fall 2013)  
A large, easy-to-read color touchscreen display delivers 
important system information at a glance—without 
requiring time-consuming decoding. This factory-installed 
option allows technicians to quickly and easily monitor 
important system operating parameters in real time, and 
compare current information with past performance—
information that can be invaluable in keeping your 
Precedent rooftop unit working optimally. The Human 
Interface Panel also allows technicians to change certain 
system set points right from the panel, aiding in start-up, 
preventive maintenance tasks and troubleshooting.

Trane combines technological innovation with legendary durability  
and performance to create the lowest cost of ownership. Trane®  
Precedent™ rooftop units not only offer the lowest installed cost,  
they also can reduce utility bills and maintenance requirements  
to create the lowest total cost of ownership in units that can operate  
at peak performance for as long as 20 to 30 years. 
Comfort and low cost of ownership
MERV 8 and MERV 13 filters
High-efficiency filtration for better indoor air quality  
and occupant comfort. Using a MERV 13 air filter, 
Precedent units can remove contaminants as small as 0.3 
microns in size, which can include bacteria, cooking oil, 
smoke, insecticide dust and paint pigments. 
All-aluminum microchannel (MCHE)  
condenser coil
A more environmentally friendly condenser coil features 
improved durability and reliability. A recessed design 
protects fins from incidental damage, while increased coil 
rigidity enhances durability. The coil’s design dramatically 
reduces the opportunity for leaks, and all-aluminum 
construction minimizes corrosion and eliminates formicary 
corrosion. An optional coil coating can further safeguard 
against corrosion. The coil also uses less refrigerant, 
making it more environmentally friendly and meeting  
the requirements of LEED EA Credit 4.
Hot gas reheat (Not shown)
Heat energy is recycled from the compressor to reduce 
indoor air humidity, eliminating the need for a separate 
heat source to do the job—which saves energy and money. 
Maintaining proper indoor humidity levels improves indoor 
comfort and can eliminate costly moisture-related damage 
to the building.
Double-sloped condensate drain pan
Non-corrosive, double-sloped, reversible condensate drain 
pan is easy to install and easy to clean, with stainless steel 
construction available as an option.
Foil-faced insulation
Foil-faced insulation edges are captured and sealed, 
reducing the chance for insulation fibers to enter the air 
stream and clog filters, which reduces maintenance needs 
and costs.
Hinged access doors
Easy entry to the unit’s service access areas reduces 
maintenance time—and reduces the opportunity for  
roof damage, too.
Color-coded, numbered wiring
Faster identification of wires helps save time and money 
when servicing and diagnosing the unit.
