Sizes 024 thru 060
Model 38BRC Energy-Efficient Air
Conditioner incorporates innovative
technology to provide quiet, reliable
cooling performance. Built into these
units are the features most desired by
homeowners today, including SEER
ratings of at least 12.0 when used with
specific Carrier indoor sections. All
models are listed with UL, c-UL, ARI,
CEC, and CSA-EEV. The 38BRC
meets the Energy Star
guidelines for
®
energy efficiency.
AVAILABLE OPTIONS
Electrical Range — All units are
offered in single phase 208/230v. The
38BRC 036 through 060 models are
offered in 208/230v 3 phase.
Wide Range of Sizes — Available in 6
nominal sizes from 024 through 060 to
meet the needs of residential and light
commercial applications.
Compressor — This unit features a
scroll compressor. This compressor is
significantly more efficient than
conventional compressors. Its simple
design offers improved reliability.
Each compressor is mounted on rubber
isolators for additional sound
reduction. Scroll compressors
start under most system loads,
minimizing the need for start
assistance components. For improved
serviceability, all models are equipped
with a compressor terminal plug.
Continuous operation is approved
down to 55°F (12.8°C) in the cooling
mode. (See cooling performance
tables.) Operation down to 0°F or
–20°F is approved when low-ambient
requirements are met.
Weather Armor II Cabinet — The
access panels and top are protected
