DDT40 Adaptive Defrost Control

Setting Maximum Defrost Duration:

Different defrost durations may be set for each defrost initiation setting. Each white tab (tripper) provides a 15 minute interval. 
For longer defrost duration, move additional tabs (following in time) from the initiation tab. For example, if a 45 minute defrost 
is to start at 7:00 AM, move the tab outward that lies between 7:00 and 7:15 on the AM side of the dial, and the tabs 
adjacent to 7:15-7:30 and 7:30-7:45. (3 tabs moved outward). The defrost will initiate at 7:00 AM and time terminate at 7:45 
AM (if temperature termination does not occur first).

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The Normally Closed contacts between terminals 2 and 4 are only closed when 
the defrost timer is energized. The 2-4 contacts are the Normally Open contacts of relay K2. When checking 
continuity of the control with no voltage applied, the 2-4 contacts will appear as open; this is normal. The 1-3 
contacts will appear as open and the 1-F contacts will appear as closed. We recommend that the control be 
tested by using a voltmeter, with rated voltage applied.

System Startup

1.  Snap the provided dead front cover into place, if 

applicable. See FIG. 11. 

2.  Re-apply power to the unit. 

3.  The control will sense the number of probes connected.  

Note:

 Observe the blue LED during startup in order to 

verify that the ICUBE™ module registers the correct 
number of thermistor probes. The blue LED will flash 
once for each recognized probe.

4.  See TABLE 2 and FIG. 12 or FIG. 13 to verify proper 

operation of the DDT40 control.
