38BYC (60 Hz)
Heat Pump
Sizes 018 thru 060
The 38BYC Outdoor Sections
of Split-System Heat Pumps are
designed for quiet, reliable heating
during the winter and cooling during
the summer. With a SEER of up to
14.0 and HSPF of up to 8.3, these
heat pump systems provide economy
of operation through energy
conservation. They recover heat for
indoor comfort from outdoor air
during the heating season and, by
automatically reversing the
refrigerant system, remove indoor
heat and excess humidity during the
cooling season. All models are listed
with UL (U.S. and Canada), CEC,
and ARI.
FEATURES/BENEFITS
— All units are
Electrical Range
offered in single phase 208–230v.
— 38BYC is available in
Size Range
7 nominal sizes from 018 through
060 to meet the needs of residential
and light commercial applications.
— This unit features a
Compressor
scroll compressor which is
significantly more efficient than
conventional compressors. Its simple
design offers improved reliability.
Each compressor is mounted on
rubber isolators for additional sound
reduction. For improved
serviceability, all models are
equipped with a compressor terminal
plug. Continuous operation is
approved down to –30 ° F (–34.4 ° C)
in the heating mode and down to
55 ° F (12.8 ° C) in the cooling mode.
(See heating and cooling
performance tables.)
