Your Bryant Packaged Heat Pump rooftop unit (RTU) was designed by customers for customers. With no--strip screw
collars, handled access panels, and more we’ve made your unit easy to install, easy t o maintain and easy to use.
Easy to install:
All Legacy Linet units are field--convertible to horizontal air flow; no special adapter curbs or kits are necessary.
Convertible airflow design makes it easy to adjust to unexpected job--site complications. Light er units make easy
replacement. Bryant 3--8.5 ton 548J rooftops fit on existing Bryant curbs dating back to 1989. Also, our large control box
gives you room to work and room to mount Bryant accessory controls.
Easy to maintain:
Easy access handles by Bryant provide quick and easy access to all normally serviced components. Our “no--strip” screw
system has superior holding power and guides screws into position while preventing the screw from stripping the unit’s
metal. Take accurate pressure readings by reading condenser pressure with panels on. Simply remove the black, composite
plug, route your gauge line(s) through the hole, and connect them to the refrigeration service valve(s). Now, you can take
refrigeration system pressure readings without affecting the condenser airflow.
Easy to use:
The newly designed, master terminal board by Bryant puts all your connect ions and troubleshooting points in one
convenient place, standard. Most low voltage connections are made to the same board and make it easy to find what you’re
looking for and easy to access it. Bryant rooftops have high and low pressure switches, a filter drier, and 2” (51mm) filters
standard.

Economizers save money. They bring in fresh, outside air
for ventilation; and provide cool, outside air to cool your
building. This is the preferred method of low--ambient
cooling. When coupled to CO
provide even more savings by coupling the ventilation air
to only that amount re quired.
Economizers are available, installed and tested by the
factory, with either enthalpy or dry--bulb temperat ure
inputs. There are also models for elect romechanical as
well as direct digital controllers. Additional sensors are
available as accessories to optimize the economizers.
Economizers include gravity controlled, barometric relief

FACTORY OPTIONS AND/OR ACCESSORIES (cont.)
Motormaster Head Pressure Controller
The Motormaster motor controller is a low ambient, head
pressure controller kit that is designed to maintain the
unit’s condenser head pressure during periods of low
ambient cooling operation. This device should be used as
an alternative to economizer free cooling not when
economizer usage is either not appropriate or desired. The
Motormaster will either cycle the outdoor--fan motors or
operate them at reduced speed to maintain the unit
operation, depending on the model.
Alternate Motors and Drives
Some applications need larger horsepower motors, some
need more airflow, and some need both. Regardless of the
case, yourBryant experthas a factory installed
combination to meet your application. A wide selection of
motors and pulleys (drives) areavailable, factory
installed, to handle nearly any application.
Thru--the--Base Connections
Thru--the--base connections,availableaseitheran
accessory or as a factory option, are necessary to ensure
proper connection and seal when routing wire and piping
through the rooftop’s basepan and curb. T hese couplings
eliminate roof penetration and should be considered for
gas lines, main power lines, as well as control power.
Electric Heaters
Bryant offers a full--line of field--installed accessory
heaters. The heaters are very easy to use, install and are
all pre--engineered and certified.

APPLICATION DATA
Min operating ambient temp (cooling):
In mechanical cooling mode, your Bryant rooftop can
safely operate down t o an outdoor ambient temperature of
25_F(--4_C). It is possible to provide cooling at lower
outdoor ambient temperatures by using less outside air,
economizers, and/or accessory low ambient kits.
Max operating ambient temp (cooling):
The maximum operating ambient temperature for cooling
mode is 115_F(46_C). While cooling operation above
115_F(46_C) may be possible, it could cause either a
reduction in performance, reliability, or a protective action
by the unit’s internal safety devices.
Min and max airflow (cooling mode):
548J
To maintain safe and reliable operation of your rooftop,
operate within the c ooling airflow limits. Operating above
the max may ca use blow--off, undesired airflow noise, or
airflow related problems with the rooftop unit. Operating
below the min may cause problems with coil freeze--up.
Airflow:
All units are draw--though in cooling mode.
Outdoor air application strategies:
Economizers reduce operating expenses and compressor
run time by providing a free source of cooling and a
means of ventilation to match application changing needs.
In fact, they should be considered for most applications.
Also, consider the various economizer control methods
and their benefits, as well as sensors required to
accomplish your application goals. Please contact your
local Bryant representative for assistance.
Motor limits, break horsepower (BHP):
Due to Bryant’s internal unit design, air path, and
specially designed motors, the full horsepower (maximum
continuous BHP) band, as listed in this manual, can be
used with the utmost confidence. There is no need for
extra safety factors, as Bryant’s motors are designed and
rigorously tested to use the entire, listed BHP range
without either nuisance tripping or premature motor
failure.
Sizing a rooftop
Bigger isn’t necessarily better. While an air conditioner
needs to have enough capacity to meet the load, it doesn’t
need excess capacity. In fact, having excess capacity
typically results in very poor part load performance and
humidity control.
UsinghigherdesigntemperaturesthanASHRAE
recommends for your location, adding “safety factors” to
the calculated load, and rounding up to the next largest
unit, are all signs of oversizing air conditioners.
Oversizing can cause short--cycling, and short cycling
leads to poor humidity control, reduced efficiency, higher
utility bills, drastic indoor temperature swings, excessive
noise, and increased wear and tear on the air conditioner.
Rather tha n oversizing an air conditioner, wise contractors
and engineers “right--size ” or even slightly undersize air
conditioners. Correctly sizing an air conditioner controls
humidity better; promotes efficiency; reduces utility bills;
extends equipment life, and maintains even, comfortable
temperatures.
Low ambient applications
When equipped with a Bryant economizer, your rooftop
unit can cool your space by bringing in fresh, cool outside
air. In fact, when so equipped, accessory low--ambient kit
may not be necessary. In low ambient conditions, unless
the outdoor air is excessively humid or contaminated,
economizer--based “free cooling” is the preferred less
costly and energy conscious method.
In low ambient applications where outside air might not
be desired (such as contaminated or excessively humid
outdoor environments), your Bryant rooftop can operate t o
ambient tempe ratures down to --20_F(--29_C) using the
recommended accessory Motor master low ambient
controller.

1. Selecting a unit with a SHC slightly lower than the SHC
often better than oversizing. Slightly lower SHC’s will help control indoor humidity, and prevent temperature swings.
2. If the rooftop’s capacity meets the Sensible Heat Load, but not

2. External static pressure is the static pressure difference between the return duct and the supply duct plus the static
pressure caused by any FIOPs or accessories.
3. Tabular data accounts for pressure loss due to clean filters, unit casing, and wet coils. Factory options and accessories
may add static pressure losses, as shown in Table 20. Selection software is available, through your salesperson, to help
you select the best motor/drive combination for your application.

When thermostat calls for cooling, terminals G and Y1 are
energized. The indoor-fan contactor (IFC), reversing valve
solenoid (RVS) and compressor contactor are energized
and indoor-fan motor, compressor, and outdoor fan starts.
The outdoor fan motor runs continuously while unit is
cooling.
Heating, unit without economizer
Upon a request for heating from the space thermostat,
terminal W1 will be energized with 24V. The IFC,
outdoor-fan contactor (OFC), C1, and C2 will be
energized. The indoor fan, outdoor fans, and compressor
no. 1, and compressor no. 2 are energized and reversing
valves are deenergized and switch position.
548J
If the space temperature continues to fall while W1 is
energized, W2 will be energized with 24V, and the heater
contactor(s) (HC) will be energized, which will energize
the electric heater(s).
When the space thermostat is satisfied, W2 will be
deenergized first, and the electric heater(s) will be
deenergized.
Upon a further rise in space temperature, W1 will be
deenergized.
Cooling, unit with EconoMi$er IV
When free cooling is not available, the compressors will
be controlled by the zone thermostat. When free cooling is
available, the outdoor-air damper is modulated by the
EconoMi$er IV control to provide a 50 to 55_F(10_ to
13_C) mixed-air temperature into the zone. As the
mixed-air temperature fluc tuates a bove 55 or below 50_F
(13_ to 10_C), the dampers will be modulated (open or
close) to bring the mixed-air temperature back within
control.
If mechanical cooling is utilized with free cooling, the
outdoor-air damper will maintain its current position at
the time the compressor is started. If the increase in
cooling capacity causes the mixed-air temperature to drop
below 45_F(7_C), then the outdoor-air damper position
will be decreased to the minimum position. If the
mixed-air temperature continues to fall, the outdoor-air
damper will close. Control returns to normal once the
mixed-air temperature rises above 48_F(9_C).
If optional power exhaust is installed, as the outdoor-air
damper opens and closes, the power exhaust fans will be
energized and deenergized.
If field-installed accessory CO

For EconoMi$er IV operation, there must be a thermostat
call for the fan (G). If the unit is occupied and the fan is
on, the damper will operate at minimum position.
Otherwise, the damper will be closed.
When the EconoMi$er IV control is in the occupied mode
and a call for cooling exists (Y1 on the t hermostat), the
control will first check for indoor fan operation. If the fan
is not on, then cooling will not be activated. If the fan is
on, then the control will open the Ec onoMi$er IV damper
to the minimum position.
On the initial power to the EconoMi$er IV control, it will
1
take the damper up to 2
/2minutes before it begins to
position itself. Any change in damper position will take
up to 30 seconds to initiate. Damper movement from full
closed to full open (or vice versa) will take between 1
and 21/2minutes.
If free cooling can be used as det ermined from the
appropriate changeover command (switch, dry bulb,
enthalpy curve, differential dry bulb, or differential
enthalpy), then the control will modulate the dampers
open to maintain the mixed-air temperature setpoint at
50_ to 55_F(10_ to 13_C).
If there is a further demand for cooling (cooling second
stage — Y2 is energized), then the control will bring on
compressor stage 1 to maintain the mixed-air temperature
setpoint. The EconoMi$er IV damper will be open at
maximum position. EconoMi$er IV operation is limited to
a single compressor.
Heating, unit with EconoMi$er
When the room temperature calls for heat through
terminal W1, the indoor (evaporator) fan contactor (IFC)
and heater contactor no. 1 (HC1) are energized and the
reversing va lve(s) deenergize and switches position. On
units equipped for 2 stages of heat, when additional heat is
needed, heater contactor no. 2 is energized through W2.
The economizer damper moves to the minimum position.
When the thermostat is satisfied, the damper moves to the
fully closed position.
Defrost
When the tem perature of the outdoor coil drops below
28_F(--2_C) as sensed by the defrost thermostat (DFT2)
and the defrost timer is at the end of a timed period
(adjustable at 30, 60, 90 or 120 minutes), reversing valve
solenoids (RVS1 and RVS2) are energized and the OFC is
deenergized. This switches the position of the reversing
valves and shuts off the outdoor fan. The electric heaters
(if installed) will be energized.
The unit continues to defrost until the coil temperature as
measured by DFT2 reaches 65_F(18_C), or the duration
2
of defrost c ycle completes a 10-minute period.
During the Defrost mode, if circuit 1 defrosts first, RVS1
will oscillate between Heating and Cooling modes until
the Defrost mode is complete.

At the end of the defrost cycle, the electric heaters (if
installed) will be deenergized; the reversing valves switch
and the outdoor-fan motor will be energized. The unit will
now operate in the Heating mode.
If the space thermostat is satisfied during a defrost cycle,
the unit will continue in the Defrost mode until the time or
temperature constraints are satisfied.

the c onditioned space rises to the cooling level setting.
When the temperature of the conditioned space falls to the

between).
Continuous air circulation
Turn unit power on. Set system control at OFF position.
Set fan switch at ON position. The indoor-fan contactor is
energized through the thermostat switch and the indoor
fan runs continuously.
Cycle-LOC™ protection
If unit operati on is interrupted by an open high-pressure
switch, low-pressure switch, indoor coil freeze stat, or by
compressor internal line-break device (overcurrent or
overtemperature), and compressor is calling for either
coolingorheating,Cycle-LOCprotectiondevice

Emergency heat
548J
If compressor is inoperative due to a tripped safety device
(high or low pressure, indoor coil freeze stat, overcurrent,
or overtemperature), the Cycle-LOC device locks out the
compressor and lights a warning light on the room
thermostat. When the switch is on (thermostat is set to the
EM HT position), compressor circuit and outdoor
thermostats are bypassed, and the second stage of
thermostat energizes the indoor blower and the electric
