V. INTERNAL WIRING
Check all electrical connections in unit control boxes; tighten
as required.
VI. CRANKCASE HEATER (Size 300 and Units with Perfect
Humidity™ Dehumidification Package Only)
Crankcase heater(s) is energized as long as there is power to
the unit and the compressor is not operating.
IMPORTANT: Unit power must be on for 24 hours prior to
start-up. Otherwise, damage to the compressor may result.
VII. EVAPORATOR FAN
Fan belt and variable pulleys are factory-installed. See
Tables 13-18 for fan performance data. Be sure that fans
rotate in the proper direction. See Table 19 for air quantity
limits. See Tables 20-22 for static pressure information for
accessories and options. See Table 23 for fan rpm at various
motor pulley settings. See Tables 24 and 25 for Evaporator-
Fan Motor Data and Efficiency. To alter fan performance, see
Evaporator Fan Performance Adjustment section on page 30.

-in. bolt and threaded plate are included in the
installer’s packet on 579F216-300 units. They can be added
to the motor support channel below the motor mounting
plate to aid in raising the fan motor.
VIII. CONDENSER-FANS AND MOTORS
Condenser fans and motors are factory set. Refer to Con-
denser-Fan Adjustment section on page 31 as required. Be
sure that fans rotate in the proper direction.
IX. RETURN-AIR FILTERS
Check that correct filters are installed in filter tracks (see
Table 1). Do not operate unit without return-air filters.
X. OUTDOOR-AIR INLET SCREENS
Outdoor-air inlet screens must be in place before operating
unit.
XI. GAS HEAT
Verify gas pressures before turning on heat as follows:
1. Turn off manual gas stop.
2. Connect pressure gage to supply gas pressure tap
(see Fig. 13).
3. Connect pressure gage to manifold pressure tap on
gas valve.
4. Turn on manual gas stop and set thermostat to
HEAT position. Adjust set point to several degrees
above the current room temperature to ensure a heat
demand. After the unit has run for several minutes,
verify that incoming pressure is 5.5 in. wg or greater,
and that the manifold pressure is 3.3 in. wg. If mani-
fold pressure must be adjusted, refer to Gas Valve
Adjustment section on page 32.
5. After unit has been in operation for 5 minutes, check
temperature rise across the heat exchangers. See unit
informative plate for correct rise limits of the heat
supplied. Air quantities may need to be adjusted to
bring the actual rise to within the allowable limits.

NOTES:
1. Standard low-medium static drive range is 891 to 1179 rpm. Alternate high-
static drive range is 1227 to 1550. Other rpms require a field-supplied drive.
2. Maximum continuous bhp is 4.25 and the maximum continuous watts are
3775. Do not adjust motor rpm such that motor maximum bhp and/or watts is
exceeded at the maximum operating cfm.
3. Static pressure losses (i.e., EconoMi$erIV) must be added to external static
pressure before entering Fan Performance table.
4. Interpolation is permissible. Do not extrapolate.
5. Fan performance is based on wet coils, clean filters, and casing losses. See
Table 20 for accessory/FIOP static pressure information.
6. Extensive motor and drive testing on these units ensures that the full horse-
power and watts range of the motor can be utilized with confidence. Using
the fan motors up to the watts or bhp rating shown will not result in nuisance
tripping or premature motor failure. Unit warranty will not be affected.
7. Use of a field-supplied motor may affect wiring size. Contact your local
Bryant representative for details.
