Valent Controls IOM 68 IOM-C1-0616
Part Number 474626
A. The controller shall enter the defrost mode when all of the following conditions are met.
a. Suction temperature is less than 30°F.
b. Suction temperature is equal to or greater than the outdoor air dewpoint less 25°F.
B. The controller shall perform the following functions in the defrost mode.
a. Outdoor air damper shall close.
b. Return air damper shall open (operates inversely of outdoor air damper).
c. Exhaust fan (if equipped) shall disable.
d. Condensing fans shall disable.
e. Energy recovery wheel (if equipped) shall disable.
f. Supply fan shall modulate to the maximum design speed.
g. Reversing valve shall enable to make indoor coil the evaporator and outdoor coil the condenser.
h. Compressor(s) shall enable and/or modulate to full capacity.
i. Mechanical heat source enabled to maintain supply air temperature setpoint.
C. The controller shall exit the defrost mode under the following conditions.
a. Condensing temperature reaches 60°F.
D. If the controller enables three defrost modes in one hour of operation, the controller shall disable the heat pump
and enable the mechanical form of heating.
