EUROFLEC 17/36
4.5. Fans
The two fans operate in parallel, but have different functions. The evaporator fan circulates cold air through
the appliance; the second fan is used to cool the condenser.
The condenser fan operates in parallel with the compressor (only if the NTC sensor intervenes for the
overheating, the condenser fan remains on even if the compressor is off).
Both fans are powered at 18V DC.
EVAPORATOR FAN CONDENSER FAN
The fans are actioned (switched on and off) according to the operation of the compressor and the opening or
closure of the doors.
4.5.1. Operation with door closed
When the compressor switches on, the fans switch on too; after the compressor switches off, the condenser
fan stops, while the evaporator fan continues to operate for 2 minutes and then switches off.
As the freezer compartment is cooled only by the cold air ducted in by the evaporator fan, after 30 minutes
the fan switches on, even if the compressor is still switched off, while the condenser fan is off till the
compressor starts again.
