2. DEFROSTING
(1) No defrosting operation is necessary
No defrosting operation is necessary.
As this machine is so designed that a built-in
evaporator cools air and a fan circulates cooled air,
neither the freezer nor the refrigerator is frosted,
though the evaporator is frosted.
The frosted evaporator is defrosted automatically
due to the function of defrosting timer and heater,
requiring no defrosting operation.
(3) The following circuit diagrams in the table show automatic defrosting function of the refrigerator with
timer and defrost thermostat.
Operation
1. Cooling
(Normal)
2. Defrosting
(Time 20 to 30 min.)
3. Drain
(Time approx. 5 min.)
4. Cooling (start)
(Time approx. 5 min.)

(2) Where is melted ice brought
1. Melted ice is brought into the evaporating pan at
the bottom of the set and is evaporated here by
the heat of sub condenser.
2. Be sure to use the evaporating pan as inserted
so as to be level with the outer case.
The integration timer integrates running
time of the compressor. When it reaches
10 hours 50 min. at 50Hz, the timer contact
is changed to start defrosting.
TM COMP
The timer contact is changed to start
defrosting, the timer motor stops, and
power is supplied to the defrost heater.
It takes about 20 to 30 min. to defrost.
When little frosted the defrosting takes
little time.When much frosted, the
TM COMP
defrosting takes much time.
When the defrost thermostat becomes
OFF, the timer motor at rest starts running.
During the operation time(4 min. 20 sec.
/50Hz) defrosted water is drained outside
the refrigerator.
TM COMP
Timer contact is changed to cooling operation
and the compressor starts running and
the timer motor stops.
Defrost thermostat contact becomes ON
when it's cooled. (FIgure F-3.)
