Air Defrost
The air defrost method is for applications where the
room temperature remains above freezing. See HIM-UC for details.
Warm Fluid Defrost
For applications where the room temperature is held
below freezing, an additional heat source must be
employed to periodically clear the unit cooler of frost.
A common method is warm uid defrost. During a
scheduled defrost period, the regular ow of cold
uid is stopped and warm uid is circulated through
the unit cooler to defrost the coil surface.
Unit coolers congured for warm uid defrost include
a control to turn o the fans and turn on electric drain
pan heaters when warm uid is sensed at the inlet
header. After the termination of the defrost period
(generally by a system controller), the ow of cold
uid is restored and the control will re-energize the
fans. See wiring diagram on unit for factory control
settings.
Electric Defrost
For applications where the room temperature is held
below freezing. During a scheduled defrost period,
electric heaters are energized to defrost the coil
surface.

Installation, Startup and Operation
1. A heat transfer uid should be selected with
a sucient glycol percentage to ensure freeze
protection. Propylene glycol is usually employed for
applications related to food.
2. In general, the chiller manufacturer’s procedure
for charging and startup should be followed. Unit
capacity, uid ow rate and pressure drop with the
uid to be used should be taken into account during
the system selection and design process.
3. Field piping should comply with applicable codes.
Correct pipe sizing is important and will help reduce
pumping power and operating costs. The system
should be thoroughly leak tested after piping is
complete.
4. To control the ow rate of uid through the unit
cooler, a balance valve is generally installed on the
outlet (top) coil connection during installation. The
valve manufacturer’s adjustment procedure should be
followed during startup.
5. To provide an isolation means, a shut-o valve is
usually installed on the inlet (bottom) coil connection
during installation.
6. Vent and drain valves are provided on each unit
cooler.
