Freeze-Up Prevention

Freeze-Up Prevention by Off Cycle (Indoor Unit Individual Control)
When the temperature detected by the liquid pipe temperature thermistor of the indoor heat
exchanger drops too low, the unit enters freeze-up prevention control in accordance with the
following conditions, and is also set in accordance with the conditions given below. (Thermostat
OFF)
When freeze-up prevention is activated, the electronic expansion valve is closed, the drain pump
turns on and the airflow rate is fixed to L tap. When the following conditions for cancelling are
satisfied, it will reset.
Conditions for starting:
Liquid pipe temperature ≤ – 1°C (30.2°F) (for total of 40 minutes)
or
Liquid pipe temperature ≤ – 5°C (23°F) (for total of 10 minutes)
Condition for cancelling:
Liquid pipe temperature ≥ +7°C (44.6°F) (for 10 minutes continuously)
