Defrosting Operation
The defrost operation is performed to solve frost on the outdoor unit heat exchanger when
heating, and the heating capacity is recovered.
[Conditions to start]
The defrost operation is started referring following conditions.
Outdoor heat exchanger heat transfer co-efficiency
Temperature of heat-exchange (Tb)
Low pressure equivalent saturation temperature (Te)
Timer (2 hours at the minimum)
In addition, outdoor heat-exchange co-efficiency is derived from Tc, Te, and the compressor
load.
* From the preparing operation to the defrost operation, and from the defrost operation to the
operation after defrost, the compressor stops for 110 sec. to reduce noise on changing of the
four way valve.
