4.4. DEFROSTING
4.4.1. POSITIVE COLD STORAGE MODELS
In the case of models with digital thermostat, defrosting is automatic and
controlled by the thermostat itself. The cycle is pre-set at the factory for 20 minutes
every 4 hours, except for equipment with two probes in which the time between
defrosting is 6 hours for 20 minutes (only if necessary), and in the case of ARV 36;
ARV 66: ARV 150; ARV 350, and ARV 450, where the time between defrosting is 5
hours for 20 minutes.
The water from the defrosting process is drained through a hole to a recipient and
subsequently evaporated, except in the ASP 400 model, where there is a drainage
hole in the bottom of the equipment, with connection to a tray that must be
manually dumped when necessary.
Make sure that the drain hole is not blocked.
On models with analogue thermostats, defrosting is manual and the equipment
must be turned off for at least 2 hours. The water from the defrost process is
drained to the compressor compartment through a hole into a recipient and is
subsequently evaporated. Make sure that the drain hole isnot blocked. When
possible, connect the drain hole to the sewage system.
4.4.2. NEGATIVE COLD STORAGE MODELS
In the ASP 400 N, ACV 420, AGP 700 N and AGP 1400 N models, defrosting is
automatic and controlled by the thermostat itself. The cycle is pre-set at the factory
to run every 6 hours for 20 minutes (only if necessary).
The water from the defrosting process is drained through a hole to a recipient in
the bottom of the equipment, which must be manually dumped when necessary.
Make sure that the drain hole is not blocked.
For other negative cold equipment, defrosting is manual and should be carried out
at least every 6 months. Disconnect the mains plug from the wall outlet and allow
the unit to defrost.
Place a container under the front drain pipe, remove the plug from the inner drain
hole and wait for the ice to thaw (do not use hot water).
Do not use sharp objects to remove ice as these may damage the inside of the
equipment. Do not use mechanical, electrical, or chemical processes to speed up
the defrosting process.
