The most troublesome thing about cold storage equipment is the defrosting operation. What is the best defrosting method and which is most suitable for you will be introduced in detail below.
There are many defrosting methods, including manual defrosting, water flushing, electric defrosting, hot air defrosting, reverse circulation defrosting, etc.
(1) Manual defrosting
The evaporator pipe can be defrosted with a broom or a crescent shaped frost shovel. This method is only applicable to smooth tube evaporator in cold storage. The manual defrosting operation is simple. During the defrosting operation, the evaporator does not stop working, so it does not affect the cooling of the cold room. However, it is difficult to completely remove the frost layer due to the high labor intensity of frost sweeping.
(2) Water frost
Water defrosting is a method to spray water on the outer surface of the evaporator by using a water spraying device, so that the frost layer is melted and washed away by the heat of water. Water defrosting is a simple and short-time defrosting method, which is often useful for right and wrong. However, it is only limited to the defrosting of the cooling fan with drainage pipe, and the cold room temperature is usually above -4 ℃.
