F. Units With Power Exhaust

When the outdoor-air damper is modulated open, the two end switches located in the actuator are tripped. The factory settings are: switch no. 1 will close at 30% outdoor air; switch no. 2 will close at 70% outdoor-air. Both switches are field adjustable. As the outdoor-air damper opens, switch no. 1 closes, energizing a double-pole relay that starts fan no. 1. As the outdoor-air damper continues to open, switch no. 2 will close, energizing a double-pole relay that starts fan no.

2.When the outdoor-air damper closes to a point below the fan start points (30% fan no. 1, 70% fan no. 2), the respective fan will be deenergized.

SERVICE

CAUTION: When servicing unit, shut off all elec- trical power to unit to avoid shock hazard or injury from rotating parts.

I. CLEANING

Inspect unit interior at the beginning of each heating and cooling season or as operating conditions require.

A. Evaporator Coil

1.Turn unit power off and install lockout tag. Remove evaporator coil access panel.

2.If EconoMi$er IV or accessory two-position damper is installed, remove economizer or two-position damper by disconnecting EconoMi$er IV plug and removing mounting screws.

3.Slide filters out of unit.

4.Clean coil using a commercial coil cleaner or dish- washer detergent in a pressurized spray canister. Wash both sides of coil and flush with clean water. For best results, back-flush toward return-air section to remove foreign material.

5.Flush condensate pan after completion.

6.Reinstall economizer or two-position damper and filters.

7.Reconnect wiring.

8.Replace access panels.

B. Condenser Coils

Inspect coils monthly. Clean condenser coils annually, and as required by location and outdoor-air conditions.

Clean 2-row coils as follows:

1.Turn off unit power and install lockout tag.

2.Remove top panel screws on condenser end of unit.

3.Remove condenser coil corner post. See Fig. 43. To hold top panel open, place coil corner post between top panel and center post. See Fig. 44.

4.Remove device holding coil sections together at return end of condenser coil. Carefully separate the outer coil section 3 to 4 in. from the inner coil section. See Fig. 45.

5.Use a water hose or other suitable equipment to flush down between the 2 coil sections to remove dirt and debris. Clean the outer surfaces with a stiff brush in the normal manner.

6.Secure the sections together. Reposition the coil sec- tions, and remove the coil corner post from between the top panel and center post. Install the coil corner post and coil center post, and replace all screws.

551B specifications

The Bryant 551B and 551C are two highly efficient air conditioning units designed to provide optimal comfort in residential settings. Known for their reliability and performance, these models are part of Bryant's esteemed line of heating and cooling solutions.

One of the standout features of the Bryant 551B is its two-stage cooling system, which allows for better humidity control and increased comfort. This ensures that homeowners can enjoy consistent temperatures while reducing energy consumption. The unit operates quietly, thanks to its noise-reducing technology, making it an ideal choice for bedrooms and living spaces.

On the other hand, the Bryant 551C builds upon this foundation with its variable-speed compressor. This technology allows the unit to adjust its cooling output according to the specific needs of the home. This results in seamless operation and even greater energy efficiency. Both models also incorporate Bryant's advanced control capabilities, which allow users to monitor and adjust settings remotely via smart devices, adding a layer of convenience and modernity to home climate control.

With an emphasis on durability, both the 551B and 551C feature a galvanized steel cabinet that protects against weather-related damage. The powder coat finish further enhances their resistance to rust and corrosion, ensuring a long lifespan and minimal maintenance.

Another significant characteristic of these units is their excellent Seasonal Energy Efficiency Ratio (SEER) ratings. The 551B boasts a SEER rating of up to 16, while the 551C takes it even further with ratings exceeding 20. This efficiency not only translates to lower energy bills for homeowners but also contributes to a reduced carbon footprint, making these units environmentally friendly options.

Both models are also designed to operate with eco-friendly refrigerants, aligning with modern energy standards and regulations aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.

In summary, the Bryant 551B and 551C are exemplary choices for homeowners looking for reliable, efficient, and high-performing air conditioning solutions. With features such as two-stage and variable-speed compressors, advanced smart technology, and robust construction, these models stand out in the competitive HVAC market. They promise a comfortable indoor environment along with significant energy savings, making them a wise investment for the future.
