5 Fan control – Cooling operation and defrosting
The parameters P28 and P31 can influence ventilator behaviour. P28 is used to set controls in normal
operation, P31 during defrosting.
Continuous operation (P28 = 0)
If parameter P31 is set to "1", the ventilator is triggered without interruption. At position "0", the
ventilator is switched off during defrosting. It is switched on again after any draining (P26) and
ventilator delay time (P32).
Timed ventilator control (P28 =1)
With this ventilator control, the ventilator output is timed with the cooling command, taking into account
the parameters P33 and P34. The ventilator starts in advance of cooling by the time set in P33 and
continues to run after cooling is switched off for the time set in P34.
If the ventilator should be switched off during defrosting, parameter P31 must be set to "0". The
ventilator starts again after defrosting and after the ventilator delay time P32.
Thermostatic ventilator control (P28 = 2)
The ventilator is only switched on when the regulating actual value falls below the temperature set in
parameter P29 minus half the hysterisis (from P30). The ventilator is switched off when the regulating
actual value lies above the temperature set in P29 plus half the hysterisis.
