Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2014/022269
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method is disclosed or detecting a frozen evaporator coil of a refrigerant vapor compression system for supplying conditioned air to a temperature controlled space before ice build-up on the evaporator coil becomes so excessive as to result in an undesirable on-off cycling of the refrigerant vapor compression system compressor when operating to a frozen temperature maintenance mode. The method may also include initiating a defrost of a frozen evaporator coil of the refrigerant vapor compression system before ice build-up on the evaporator coil becomes so excessive as to result in an on-off cycling of the refrigerant vapor compression system compressor when operating to a frozen temperature maintenance mode.
