3.10 Defrost Control
Outline Heat Pump Only
Defrosting is carried out by the cooling cycle (reverse cycle). The defrosting time or outdoor
heat exchanger temperature must be more than its fixed value when finishing.
Detail Conditions for Starting Defrost
Under the conditions that the system is in heating operation, 6 minutes after the compressor is
started and more than 38 minutes of accumulated time pass since the start of the operation or
ending the defrosting.
When the outdoor air temperature and the outdoor heat exchanger temperature meet the
following condition for 60 seconds, the defrost control starts.
A< –(19/256)×B+(45/64)×C
A: outdoor heat exchanger temperature
B: output frequency
C: outdoor air temperature
Conditions for Canceling Defrost
The target heat exchanger temperature as the canceling condition is selected in the range of
4°C
≤

≤
12°C according to the air temperature as the following formula.
The target heat exchanger temperature = –(45/64)×(ambient tempe14
