Defrost Cycle
The electronic control is programmed to initiate defrost by two different methods. There are (3) programmed
defrost cycles in the control which will initiate a defrost cycle every 8 hours. The unit does not have a time
clock so the defrost cycles cannot be set for any specific time of day.
The electronic controller uses time to initiate the defrost cycle, and temperature to terminate the defrost cycle.
The controller
also has an ‘On demand’ defrost feature that will initiate a defrost cycle when the temperature
differential between the evaporator temperature and the air temperature is more than 15 degrees for 5 minutes
after 30 minutes into the refrigeration cycle.
Control Factory Settings
The control parameters are set at the factory and cannot be manually changed in the field. Control parameter
changes can only be made by downloading a new set of parameters using a program chip supplied by Federal
Industries
