3. Temperature
fluctuating a. Air probe a. When using an air probe, the
wine bottle temperature is mainly
controlled by the average air
temperature. If the set-point is 55
° F
with the differential 4F, the cooling
unit turns on at 59
° F of air
temperature (It may be higher than
59
° F if it is in anti-short cycle or
defrost) and turns off at 55 ° F of air
temperature. The average air
temperature is 57
° F, and then the
wine temperature is around 57+/-
0.5
° F. The air is light enough to
change so quickly that it maintains
relatively constant average
temperature that would prevent
wine
bottle temperature from
fluctuating.
