Zone 1 Defrost and Zone 2 Null
The CIS is closed so high pressure refrigerant
vapor leaves the compressor and flows through
the DPR to the Zone 1 hot gas line and through
HGS1 into the Zone 1 evaporator. There, the
refrigerant heats the evaporator and condenses
into high pressure liquid. The refrigerant flows
through the open suction line solenoid and back to
accumulator. The fans stay off in the Zone 1
evaporator, allowing the coil to defrost without
warming the load.
In the condensing unit, the CIS valve closes and
opens to regulate head pressure. The purge valve
is opened continuously during defrost to drain the
condenser
