Accessory Description and Usage (Listed Alphabetically)

1. Ball-Bearing Fan Motor 5. Cycle Protector

165A

A fan motor with ball bearings which permits speed reduction while maintaining bearing lubrication.

Usage Guideline:

Required on all units when MotorMasterr —

2. Compressor Start Assist - Capacitor and Relay

Start capacitor and relay gives a ”hard” boost to compressor motor at each start up.

Usage Guideline:

Required for reciprocating compressors in the following applications:

Long line

Low ambient cooling

Hard shut off expansion valve on indoor coil Liquid line solenoid on indoor coil

Required for single-phase scroll compressors in the following applications:

Long line

Low ambient cooling

Suggested for all compressors in areas with a history of low voltage problems.

3. Compressor Start Assist — PTC Type

Solid state electrical device which gives a ”soft” boost to the compressor at each start-up.

Usage Guideline:

Suggested in installations with marginal power supply.

4. Crankcase Heater

An electric resistance heater which mounts to the base of the compressor to keep the lubricant warm during off cycles. Improves compressor lubrication on restart and minimizes the chance of liquid slugging.

Usage Guideline:

Required in low ambient cooling applications. Required in long line applications.

Suggested in all commercial applications.

The cycle protector is designed to prevent compressor short cycling. This control provides an approximate 5-minute delay after power to the compressor has been interrupted for any reason, including power outage, protector control trip, thermostat jiggling, or normal cycling.

6. Evaporator Freeze Thermostat

An SPST temperature-actuated switch that stops unit operation when evaporator reaches freeze-up conditions.

Usage Guideline:

Required when low ambient kit has been added.

7. Low-Ambient Pressure Switch Kit

A long life pressure switch which is mounted to outdoor unit service valve. It is designed to cycle the outdoor fan motor in order to maintain head pressure within normal operating limits (approximately 100 psig/689.5 KpA to 225 psig/1551.3 KpA. The control will maintain working head pressure at low-ambient temperatures down to 0_F (-17.8_C) when properly installed.

Usage Guideline:

ALow-Ambient Pressure Switch or MotorMasterr Low-Ambient Controller must be used when cooling operation is used at outdoor temperatures below 55_F (12.8_C).

8.MotorMasterr Low-Ambient Controller

Afan-speed control device activated by a temperature sensor, designed to control condenser fan motor speed in response to the saturated, condensing temperature during operation in cooling mode only. For outdoor temperatures down to -20_F (-28.9_C), it maintains condensing temperature at 100_F ±10_F (37.8_C ± 6.5_C).

Usage Guideline:

A MotorMasterr Low Ambient Controller or Low-Ambient Pressure Switch must be used when cooling operation is used at outdoor temperatures below 55_F (12.8_C).

Suggested for all commercial applications.

9. Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor

Designed for use with Bryant Thermostats listed in this publication. This device enables the thermostat to display the outdoor temperature. This device also

is required to enable special thermostat features such as auxiliary heat lock out.

Usage Guideline:

Suggested for all Bryant thermostats listed in this publication.
