the environmentally sound refrigerant
This product has been designed and manufactured to
meet Energy Star®criteria for energy efficiency when
matched with appropriate coil components. However,
proper refrigerant charge and proper air flow are critical
to achieve rated capacity and efficiency. Installation of
this product should follow all manufacturing refrigerant
charging and air flow instructions. Failure to confirm
proper charge and air flow may reduce energy
efficiency and shorten equipment life.

REFRIGERANT CHARGE ADJUSTMENTS
Liquid Line Size Puron Charge oz/ft (g/m)
3/8 0.60 (17.74)
(Factory charge for lineset = 9 oz / 266.16 g)
5/16 0.40 (11.83)
1/4 0.27 (7.98)
Units are factory charged for 15 ft (4.6 m) of 3/8” liquid line. The factory charge for 3/8” lineset 9 oz.(266.16 g). When using other length
or diameter liquid lines, charge adjustments are required per the chart above.
Charging Formula:
[(Lineset oz/ft x total length) – (factory charge for lineset)] = charge adjustment
Example 1: System has 15 ft of line set using existing 1/4“ liquid line. What charge adjustment is required?
Formula: (.27 oz/ft x 15ft) – (9 oz) = (-4.95) oz.
Net result is to remove 4.95 oz of refrigerant from the system
Example 2: System has 45 ft of existing 5/16” liquid line. What is the charge adjustment?
Formula: (.40 oz/ft. x 45ft) – (9 oz.) = 9 oz.
Net result is to add 9 oz of refrigerant to the system

LONG LINE APPLICATIONS
An application is considered Long Line, when the refrigerant level in the system requires the use of accessories to maintain acceptable
refrigerant management for systems reliability. See Accessory Usage Guideline table for required accessories. Defining a system as long line
depends on the liquid line diameter, actual length of the tubing, and vertical separation between the indoor and outdoor units.
For Air Conditioner systems, the chart below shows when an application is considered Long Line.

Line Guideline—Air Conditioners and Heat Pumps using Puron®Refrigerant.
{Required on all indoor units. Standard on all new Puron refrigerant fan coils and furnace coils.
Accessory Description and Usage (Listed Alphabetically)
1. Compressor Start Assist -- Capacitor and Relay
Start capacitor and relay gives a ”hard” boost to compressor
motor at each start up.
Usage Guideline:
Required for reciprocating compressors in the
following applications:
Long line
Hard shut off expansion valve on indoor coil
Liquid line solenoid on indoor coil
Required for single--phase scroll compressors in the
following applications:
Long line
Suggested for all compressors in areas with a history of
low voltage problems.
2. Crankcase Heater
An electric resistance heater which mounts to the base of the
compressor to keep the lubricant warm during off cycles.
Improves compressor lubrication on restart and minimizes the
chance of liquid slugging.
Usage Guideline:
Required in low ambient cooling applications.
Required in long line applications.
Suggested in all commercial applications.
3. Outdoor Air Temperature Sensor
Designed for use with Bryant Thermostats listed in this
publication. This device enables the thermostat to display the
outdoor temperature. This device also
is required to enable special thermostat features such as auxiliary
heat lock out.
Usage Guideline:
Suggested for all Bryant thermostats listed in this
publication.
4. Support Feet
Four stick--on plastic feet that raise the unit 4 in. (101.6 mm)
above the mounting pad. This allows sand, dirt, and other debris
to be flushed from the unit base, minimizing corrosion.
Usage Guideline:
Suggested in the following applications:
Coastal installations.
Windy areas or where debris is normally circulating.
Rooftop installations.
For improved sound ratings.
5. Thermostatic Expansion Valve (TXV)
A modulating flow--control valve which meters refrigerant liquid
flow rate into the evaporator in response to the superheat of the
refrigerant gas leaving the evaporator.
Kit includes valve, adapter tubes, and external equalizer tube.
Hard shut off types are available.
NOTE: When using a hard shut off TXV with single phase
reciprocating compressors, a Compressor Start Assist Capacitor
and Relay is required.
Usage Guideline:
Required to achieve AHRI ratings in certain equipment
combinations. Refer to combination ratings.
Hard shut off TXV or LLS required in air conditioner
long line applications.
Required for use on all zoning systems.
