Model 698B Heat Pumps incorporate innovative 2-speed com-
pressor technology with Puron®, the refrigerant of the future, to
provide quiet, efficient cooling performance. Built into these units
are features most desired by consumers today. SEER ratings of
up to 16.0 SEER and 9.1 HSPF can be reached when com-
bined with specific Bryant equipment. All models are listed with
UL, c-UL, ARI, CEC, and CSA-EEV. The 698B meets the
Energy Star
®
guidelines for energy efficiency.
FEATURES
COIL PROTECTION
—The DuraGuard coil protector, made of a
12 gage coated steel wire grid with vertical 3/8 in. spacing, is
designed to help protect the coil from inclement weather, vandal-
ism, and incidental hits. It provides protection while not restrict-
ing airflow and maintaining ease of coil inspection and cleaning.
ELECTRICAL
—All units are offered in 208/230v single phase.
Simplified field-stripped lead wire connections facilitate ease of
installation.
RANGE OF SIZES
—Available in 4 nominal sizes: 024, 036, 048,
and 060 to meet the needs of residential applications.
WEATHER-PROTECTED CABINET
—Steel is galvanized and
coated with a layer of zinc phosphate. A modified polyester pow-
der coating is then applied and baked on, providing each unit
with a hard, smooth finish that will last for many years.
All screws on the cabinet exterior are ceramic coated for a long-
lasting, rust-resistant, high-quality appearance.
RELIABILITY BY DESIGN
—The coil incorporates copper tub-
ing and enhanced, aluminum fins for optimum heat transfer. Hot
condenser air and sound are discharged vertically and away
from adjacent patio areas and foliage through the AeroMax
opening. A heat pump style basepan is used for easy removal of
water, dirt, and debris.
Auto-reset high- and low-pressure switches continuously moni-
tor system operation.
A compressor crankcase heater, energized during the compres-
sor off cycle, helps to provide reliable starting.
TOTALLY ENCLOSED FAN MOTOR
—Means greater reliability
under adverse weather conditions and dependable performance
for many years. The permanent-split-capacitor type motor was
designed for optimum efficiency. The motor was tested and qual-
ified under extreme conditions to ensure the greatest reliability.
AEROQUIET FAN SYSTEM
—Allows air to move through the unit
more easily which lowers sound levels and improves efficiency.
APPLICATION VERSATILITY
—This unit can be combined with
a wide variety of evaporator coils, fan coils, and furnaces to pro-
vide quiet, dependable comfort. Unit can be installed on a roof or
at ground level on a slab.
EXTERNAL SERVICE VALVES
—Both service valves are brass,
back seating type with sweat connections. Valves are externally
located so refrigerant connections can be made quickly and eas-
ily. Each valve has a service port for ease of checking operating
refrigerant pressures.
EASY SERVICEABILITY
—Removal of access panel and con-
trol box cover provides easy access to the compressor and all
electrical controls. Removal of top provides access to fan motor
and coil. A self-diagnostic indicator on the electronic control
board informs the service technician of the failed component.
COMPRESSOR PROTECTION
—The compressor is protected
with an internal overload. An internal pressure relief valve pro-
vides high-pressure protection to the refrigerant system.
STANDARD FEATURES
—An electronic control eliminates
excessive wiring. A compressor sound hood and discharge muf-
fler provide improved sound levels as well as sound quality.
COMPRESSOR START ASSIST
—Capacitor and relay.
EXPANSION VALVE
—A hard shutoff, balance-port TXV,
shipped with every unit for field installation, enhances system
performance and reliability.
LIMITED WARRANTY
—Five-year warranty on all parts with a
10 year warranty on the compressor. Refer to warranty certificate
for specific details.
