Automatic defrost function
When the compressor is in operation, “Duration defrost lock“ (2962) and “Time up to
forced defrost“ (2963) elapse. If the source temperature (B91) drops below the defrost
release temperature (2951), the defrost release function will be released. The heat
pump can change to defrost operation mode after ”Duration defrost lock” at the earliest,
and on completion of “Time up to forced defrost” (2963) at the latest.
When, due to icing up during this period of time, the temperature difference (8477)
between incoming outside air (B91) and evaporator (B84) exceeds the setpoint (8478),
the defrost function is triggered.

When defrosting is successful, the evaporator temperature (B84) rises. If the
evaporator temperature exceeds “Evapor temp defrost end“ (2954 OEM), the defrost
process can be successfully completed and the compressor is switched off during the
dripping time (2965). Then, heating mode is resumed.
