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
The starting conditions must be made with the outdoor air temperature and heat exchanger
temperature. Under the conditions that the system is in heating operation, 6 minutes after the
compressor is started and more than 47 minutes of accumulated time pass since the start of the
operation or ending the defrosting.
Conditions for Canceling Defrost
The target heat exchanger temperature as the canceling condition is selected in the range of
4°C<Te<12°C according to the air temperature as the following formula.
The target heat exchanger temperature=–(45/65)×(ambient tempe14
