Defrost

Melts frost which might collect on outdoor heat exchangers during heating in order to recover their heat
transfer performance.
Conditions for executing defrost
OR
∗ Tc : High pressure equivalent saturated temperature
T = C
C : Tair ≤ 0˚C → 0.8
∗ Tair = Outdoor air temperature
The values of (α) according to defrost temperature changeover switch are given in the table below.
LED (H4P, H5P, H6P, H7P)
Therefore, if outdoor temperature is 0˚C:
(1) If position L, Tcoil (R2-1T, R2-2T) ≤ -12˚C
(2) If position M, Tcoil (R2-1T, R2-2T) ≤ -10˚C
(3) If position H, Tcoil (R2-1T, R2-2T) ≤ -8˚C
Because defrost operation is carried out, set to the "H" position if frost builds up easily, and set to "L" if not.
Factory set is position "M."
Functions Inverter K Series
At least 20 minutes have elapsed since completion of oil return or since compressor starts.
High pressure < 20k (Tc = 52.4ºC)
&
Compressor is running at least 30 minutes since completion of previous defrost.
Either liquid pipe thermal detection temperature (R2-1T, R2-2T) < TºC for 5 minutes.
Forced defrost test pin (MDS) is shorted.
& Liquid pipe thermal detection temperature (R2-1T, R2-2T) < 12.5ºC for all units
High pressure < 20k (Tc = 52.4ºC)
(Outdoor temp.) – α
(C is constant)
Tair > 0˚C → 0.6
