Rated Load Amps

*Heater capacity (kW) is based on heater voltage of 208 v, 240 v, 480 v, and 600 v. Heaters are rated at 240 v, 480 v, or 600 v. If power distribution voltage to unit varies from rated heater voltage, heater kW will vary accordingly. To deter- mine heater capacity at actual unit voltage, multiply 240 v, 480 v, or 600 v capac- ity by multipliers found in table on page 110.

†Fuse or HACR circuit breaker.

NOTES:

1.In compliance with NEC requirements for multimotor and combination load equipment (refer to NEC Articles 430 and 440), the overcurrent protective device for the unit shall be fuse or HACR breaker. The Canadian units may be fuse or circuit breaker.

2.Unbalanced 3-Phase Supply Voltage

Never operate a motor where a phase imbalance in supply voltage is greater than 2%. Use the following formula to determine the percent of voltage imbalance.

% Voltage Imbalance

max voltage deviation from average voltage

= 100 x

average voltage

EXAMPLE: Supply voltage is 460-3-60.

AB = 452 v

BC = 464 v

AC = 455 v

Average Voltage = 452 + 464 + 455

= 1.53%

This amount of phase imbalance is satisfactory as it is below the maximum allowable 2%.

IMPORTANT: If the supply voltage phase imbalance is more than 2%, con- tact your local electric utility company immediately.

551A, 551B, 558F 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.
