User Guide | Controller for appliance control, AK-CC 450 Control of two compressors General: The two compressors must be of a type that can start up against a high pressure. The running compressor will continue until the temperature has reached the cutout value. Then it will cut out. When the tempera- ture again reaches the middle of the differential, a compressor will again be started.

User Guide | Controller for appliance control, AK-CC 450 Melt function MeltInterval Only for control of refrigeration (-5 to +10°C). The function ensures that the evaporator will not be blocked by frost. Here you set how often the function is to stop the refrigeration and hence transform the frost to water (or ice if there is too much frost).
