DEFROST CONTROLS
2. TIME INITIATED, TIME TERMINATED
Like in the time initiated, temperature terminated controls; these systems have a temperature sensor that will
disconnect the heaters to keep the cabinet from over heating. However it won't restart the freezing cycle until
the control completes the factory set time, which in our case is usually 20 minutes. These systems are also
equipped with temperature sensors to delay the fan motors once the defrost cycle has been completed, to pre-
vent the circulation of warm air inside the cabinet.
To adjust the defrost cycle time there is only one possible adjustment; Once the cabinet has reach the design
temperature, pick the time of the day that you want the unit to defrost. Turn the actuating gear clockwise until
the contacts change position initiating the defrost c y c l e .
