2-10 Defrosting Control, Outdoor Heat Exchanger Coil (Heating)
When the outdoor temperature is low, frost may form on the outdoor heat exchanger coil.
When this occurred, the defrosting system operates. The microprocessor in the outdoor
unit monitors the relationship between the temperature of the outdoor heat exchanger coil
and the outdoor temperature so it can defrost when necessary.
Occurs either when the temperature of C1 (the outdoor
heat exchanger coil) has reached 10°C or above,
or when the maximum defrosting time (9 minutes)
has elapsed.
Refer to time chart.
*Minimum continuous operating time by defrosting is 48 minutes (= 15 + 8 + 25).
