TCL Air Conditioner Service Manual
(5)Defrost
Defrosting of the outdoor heat exchange is controlled by the microprocessor with detection by the indoor pipe temperature sensor.
Defrost control type is according to the JC on the PCB whether is connected.
When the JC is connect on the PCB
When one of the conditions of A, Band C is satisfy, the defrosting operation stars. A.
℉) |
In the condition A, it must satisfy the conditions a), b)and c) then into defrosting operation.
a)IPT1 satisfy IPT1=IPTMAX－△IPT（14.4℉）
b)t5≥50minutes(the compressor cumulative operation time≥50 minutes, t5 is permitted move and lower than t1 too).
c)IPT＜104℉，and keep 2 minutes.
According to the condition A enter the defrosting operation, the first defrosting operation time is 8 minutes; After defrosting operation one cycle, and then judge and regulate the defrosting operation time.
B. After the compressor cumulative operation time exceeds 120 minutes and the temperature of the IPT is less than 95℉ for 2 minutes. When the defrosting operation time on this condition exceeds
8 minutes, it will terminate.
C. After the compressor operates continuously for 20 minutes and the IPT is less than 73.4℉ or from
the last time of defrosting operation is 50 minutes or more interval. When the defrosting operation time on this condition exceeds 10 minutes, it will terminate.
When the JC isn’t connected on the PCB
When the conditions of a) or b) is satisfy, the defrosting operation starts.
a)Under the heating operation, the compressor cumulative operation time exceeds 50 minutes and the temperature of the outdoor pipe temperature sensor reads lower than －14.4℉
b)Under the heating operation, the compressor cumulative operation time exceeds 50 minutes, if the indoor pipe temperature sensor reads lower than 104℉ continuously for 2 minutes.
Note: If haven’t the outdoor pipe temperature sensor that uses the condition b) to defrost, against use the condition a).
Defrost terminating conditions
When the condition c) or d) is satisfy, the defrosting operation will terminate.
c)The outdoor defrost sensor reads 68℉ or more.
d)The defrosting time exceeds 10 minutes.
