Defrost Sensor for heat pumps and other outdoor applications

Technical data: HBDF-OD

The sensor can be used on evaporators placed outside. The sensor can only assist and guide the controller in the temperature range from 0 to +5°C because it is affected by rain, snow, and water on the evaporator. The sensor is only sold for OEM customers and customers with sufficient resources to get it operational without onsite support. We recommend testing the sensor before purchasing large quantities.

The sensor is protected against humidity by a built-in heater and potted electronic unit. The sensor has a temperature sensor for controlling the ice/water balance.

Product features

Defrost starts only when needed (on demand)

Stop the defrost when ice is melted (input from temperature sensor located on evaporator surface)

Save energy compared with timer based defrosting

Gain more capacity - fewer and shorter defrost cycles

Easy installation - also on existing sites
