The table above indicates the relay positions during each defrost step and normal refrigeration.
* There is approximately a 5 second delay before the “H” relay switches to its position during this step. This
is to give the suction solenoid valve time to close before the hot gas solenoid valve opens.
WIRING DIAGRAM
The wiring diagram below is typical for the bottom feed evaporator shown on page 9. Other wiring schemes
are possible to meet system requirements. This wiring diagram is for illustration purposes only and does not
show all controls and safety devices. Final control wiring is the responsibility of the system designer. See
above table for relay operation.
