Freezing prevention
▪
Purpose
Prevent frost in indoor units to protect compressors. Prevent other accidents.
If there is frost in indoor units, refrigerant will not evaporate. As a result, compressor failure will occur due to liquid compression.
If there is frost in indoor units, ice may form and fall causing an accident.
▪
Concept
-
Frost is detected based on the temperature of indoor unit heat exchangers.
- The compressor frequency is lowered to prevent frost in indoor unit heat exchangers.
- The temperature for indoor unit heat exchangers is defined during frost preventive control:
- Minimum temperature of temperature at the exit of indoor unit heat exchangers and temperature at the entrance of indoor unit heat
exchangers)
▪
Control specifications in detail
- The compressor operation frequency is controlled according to the temperature of indoor unit heat exchangers, as shown below.
1st step Hz hold : The current frequency is fixed. (It is possible to lower the frequency if necessary)
2nd step Hz down : The frequency is forcibly lowered by 5Hz at specified intervals.
3rd step HP down : The frequency is forcibly lowered by 1Hz every second.
4th step Comp stop : Compressors stop and the fan speed changes for indoor units to the mid level.
