2.Temperature

a.

Air sensor

 

When using

an air

sensor, the

wine

fluctuating

 

 

 

bottle temperature is mainly controlled

 

 

 

 

by the average air temperature. If the

 

 

 

 

set-point is 55°F with a differential 4 °F,

 

 

 

 

the cooling unit turns on at 59°F of air

 

 

 

 

temperature and turns off at 55°F of air

 

 

 

 

temperature.

The

average

air

 

 

 

 

temperature is 57°F, and then the wine

 

 

 

 

temperature is around 57+/-0.5°F. The

 

 

 

 

air is light enough to change so quickly

 

 

 

 

that it maintains relatively constant

 

 

 

 

average temperature that would prevent

 

 

 

 

wine bottle temperature from varying.
