Hello dear colleagues,

The purpose of defrost control in refrigeration and air conditioning systems is to prevent the build-up of ice or frost on the evaporator coil. In these systems, the evaporator coil often operates at temperatures below freezing, which can cause moisture from the air to freeze onto the coil. This layer of ice or frost can act as an insulator, preventing the coil from effectively absorbing heat from its surroundings. This, in turn, can lead to reduced efficiency and potentially cause damage to the system.

Defrost controls monitor conditions such as temperature and time, and initiate a defrost cycle when necessary. During this cycle, the system temporarily reverses the cooling process to melt the accumulated ice or frost from the evaporator coil. This ensures that the system continues to operate efficiently and effectively.

Below, we have tried to answer the most frequently asked questions from our users. Cooling and air conditioning technologies are advancing every day, and factors such as efficiency, environmental compatibility, and carbon footprint are emerging.
