Bryant 619CNQ, 619CNF E. System Safeties, F. Special Operation, Heating, Cleaning And Maintenance

The DFB logic checks the 10-minute defrost timer and the DFT. If the DFT opens in less than 10 minutes, the DFB switches the unit back to normal heating operation. If the DFT remains closed, the DFB switches the unit back to heating operation after 10 minutes. When the DFB changes back to heating mode, the RVR (reversing valve relay) is deenergized and the reversing valve switches back to heating operation. Both the outdoor and indoor fans come back on, and if necessary, the electric heater also turns on.

E. System Safeties

The system is equipped with the following safety devices to protect system components:

Indoor coil freeze protection thermostat — If a coil tempera- ture of 28 F or lower is sensed, the compressor and outdoor fan will be shut down until the coil temperature exceeds 28 F. The indoor fan will continue to run.

Condensate float switch (units equipped with accessory condensate pump, cooling cycle only) — If the level of condensate in the drain pan rises too high, the condensate float switch will turn the system off.

F. Special Operation, Heating

Outdoor cooling units may be matched with heat pump ceiling-suspended fan coil units to provide supplemental electric heat. All other operation is the same as a cooling- only system, except these units have heating capability as follows:

When the room thermostat initiates a call for heating, the electric heater is turned on. The indoor unit fan will start at the same time, if it was not already running.

When the heating requirement is satisfied, the room thermo- stat will open, and the heater will turn off.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

CAUTION: To avoid the possibility of electric shock, before performing any cleaning and mainte- nance operations, always turn off power to the system by pressing the mode button on the remote thermostat until the display shows “OFF,” and turning off the out- door disconnect switch located near the outdoor unit. If the indoor unit is on a separate switch, be sure to turn this disconnect off as well.

Fig. 22 — Inserting Water into Drain Pan

CAUTION: Do not wash filter in water over 120 F (to avoid shrinkage). Do not expose filter to fire (to avoid fire damage). Do not expose filter to direct sunlight. Clean filter more frequently when air is extremely dirty.

For proper system operation, perform the cleaning and main- tenance operations in Table 6.

I. LUBRICATION

The indoor-fan, automatic air sweep, and the outdoor-fan motors are factory lubricated and require no oiling.

II. AIR FILTERS (FIG. 23)

CAUTION: Operating the system with dirty air fil- ters may damage the indoor unit and, in addition, can cause reduced cooling performance, intermittent system operation, frost build-up on the indoor coil, and blown fuses. Inspect and clean or replace the air filters monthly.

A. Remove Air Filters

Remove filters by pulling them straight out.

B. Clean Or Replace Filters

Filters can be vacuumed or washed in warm water. Shake fil- ter to remove any excess water, and replace by sliding filter behind grille until filter snaps in place. Refer to Fig. 23.

If the filter has begun to break down or is torn, replace it. Replacement filters are available through your dealer.
