SETTING OF COMPRESSOR DELAY TIME
The delay time of high and low stage side compressor can be changed to reduce the load on the power
line and to facilitate the start-up (reset) of the freezer after power failure.
The example in the table is based on the assumption that the delay time is changed to 4 minutes.
(The delay time is set in 3 minutes at the factory.)
Note:
• The setting range for delay time is between 3 and 15 minutes. The cool down of chamber temperature
may be slow when the setting of delay time is over 5 minutes, depending on the installation environment.
There is no need of changing the delay time when the capacity of power source is adequate.
