    Notes on refrigerating operation Defrosting: BINDER battery test chambers are very diffusion-proof. To ensure high temperature precision there is no automatic cyclic defrosting device. The refrigerating system largely avoids icing of the evaporation plates. However, at very low temperatures the moisture in the air can condense on the evaporator leading to icing.
  • Page 137: Anti-Condensation Protection Via Operation Line

Anti-condensation protection is performed by the evaporator and can be programmed On/Off via operation line “Anti-condensation” in Fixed value and program modes. Use the anti-condensation protection only if absolutely necessary to prevent condensation on the charging material.
