Defrost Control Board
run through the 1-minute minimum defrost length
sequence in a matter of seconds and will automatically
terminate the defrost sequence.
There is an initiate defrost jumper (sen jump) on the
control that can be used at any outdoor ambient during
the heating cycle to simulate a 0° coil temperature.
This can be used to check defrost operation of the unit
without waiting for the outdoor ambient to fall into the
defrost region.
By placing a jumper across the
SEN JMP
terminals (a
¼" QC terminal works best) the defrost sensor mounted
on the outdoor coil is shunted out and will activate the
timing circuit. This permits the defrost cycle to be
checked out in warmer weather conditions without the
outdoor temperature having to fall into the defrost region.
In order to terminate the defrost test, the
SEN JMP
jumper must be removed. If left in place too long, the
compressor could stop due to the high pressure control
opening because of high pressure condition created
by operating in the cooling mode with outdoor fan off.
Pressure will rise fairly fast as there is likely no actual
frost on the outdoor coil in this artificial test condition.
There is also a 5-minute compressor time delay function
built into the HPC. This is to protect the compressor
from short cycling conditions. The board’s LED will have
a fast blink rate when in the compressor time delay. In
some instances, it is helpful to the service technician to
override or speed up this timing period, and shorting out
the
SPEEDUP
terminals for a few seconds can do this.
Low Pressure Switch Bypass Operation
The control has a selectable (SW1) low pressure switch
bypass set up to ignore the low pressure switch input during
the first (30, 60, 120 or 180 seconds) of “Y” operation.
After this period expires, the control will then monitor the
low pressure switch input normally to make sure that the
switch is closed during “Y” operation.
High Pressure Switch Operation
The control has a built-in lockout system that allows
the unit to have the high pressure switch trip up to two
times in one hour and only encounter a “soft” lockout. A
“soft” lockout shuts the compressor off and waits for the
pressure switch to reset, which at that point then allows
the compressor to be restarted as long as the 5-minute
short cycle timer has run out. If the high pressure switch
trips a third time within one hour, the unit is in “hard”
lockout indicating something is certainly wrong and it
will not restart itself.
