Model 698B Heat Pumps incorporate innovative 2-speed com-
pressor technology with Puron®, the refrigerant of the future, to
provide quiet, efficient cooling performance. Built into these units
are features most desired by consumers today. SEER ratings of
up to 16.0 SEER and 9.1 HSPF can be reached when com-
bined with specific Bryant equipment. All models are listed with
UL (U.S. and Canada), ARI, and CEC. The 698B meets the
Energy Star
®
guidelines for energy efficiency.
IMPORTANT
—When selecting an indoor blower section to be
installed with the two-speed unit, variable speed indoor blower
technology is recommended. Some 5-speed tap PSC motor
products can be applied but detailed engineering of the total
system static pressure is required. Very few 4-speed tap PSC
indoor motor products can be installed with the two-speed unit.
It is important to match CFM for high-speed capacity and low-
speed capacity as stated in the combination rating tables. To
derive all the benefits of improved room humidity and tempera-
ture control, lower noise levels, and maximum energy savings,
it is recommended that you use variable speed indoor blower
technologies. See product data sheets for CFM requirements
for low-speed capacity and high-speed capacity operation.
If your CFM is higher than the required CFM for low-speed
capacity operation, you may have little latent heat removal,
resulting in lower comfort levels in high humidity climates. If
your climate is hot with little to no humidity, this mode of oper-
ation may be desired.
BRYANT’S EVOLUTION™ CONTROLS
—These industry-
leading controls, when installed with Bryant’s Perfect Humid-
ity™ variable-speed furnaces or fan coils, provide the home-
owner with:
–unparalleled control of temperature, humidity, indoor air qual-
ity, and zoning
–unprecedented ease of use
–simple operation through on-screen, text-based service
reminders
–worry-free equipment malfunction alert on the two-speed out-
door section
Optional remote access through telephone or Internet is also
available when combined with a remote connectivity kit.
FEATURES
COIL PROTECTION
—The DuraGuard coil protector, made of a
12 gage coated steel wire grid with vertical 3/8 in. spacing, is
designed to help protect the coil from inclement weather, vandal-
ism, and incidental hits. It provides protection while not restrict-
ing airflow and maintaining ease of coil inspection and cleaning.
ELECTRICAL
—All units are offered in 208/230v single phase.
Simplified field-stripped lead wire connections facilitate ease of
installation.
RANGE OF SIZES
—Available in 4 nominal sizes: 024, 036, 048,
and 060 to meet the needs of residential applications.
WEATHER-PROTECTED CABINET
—Steel is galvanized and
coated with a layer of zinc phosphate. A modified polyester pow-
der coating is then applied and baked on, providing each unit
with a hard, smooth finish that will last for many years.
All screws on the cabinet exterior are ceramic coated for a long-
lasting, rust-resistant, high-quality appearance.
RELIABILITY BY DESIGN
—The coil incorporates copper tub-
ing and enhanced, aluminum fins for optimum heat transfer. Hot
condenser air and sound are discharged vertically and away
from adjacent patio areas and foliage through the AeroMax
opening. A heat pump style basepan is used for easy removal of
water, dirt, and debris.
Auto-reset high- and low-pressure switches continuously moni-
tor system operation.
A compressor crankcase heater, energized during the compres-
sor off cycle, helps to provide reliable starting.
TOTALLY ENCLOSED FAN MOTOR
—Means greater reliability
under adverse weather conditions and dependable performance
for many years. The permanent-split-capacitor type motor was
designed for optimum efficiency. The motor was tested and qual-
ified under extreme conditions to ensure the greatest reliability.
AEROQUIET FAN SYSTEM
—Allows air to move through the unit
more easily which lowers sound levels and improves efficiency.
APPLICATION VERSATILITY
—This unit can be combined with
a wide variety of evaporator coils, fan coils, and furnaces to pro-
vide quiet, dependable comfort. Unit can be installed on a roof or
at ground level on a slab.
