Frost Master

The Hansen Frost Master ® is an easy-to-use defrost controller for efficient removal of frost accumulation on evaporator coil surfaces. This controller uses simple, reliable solid-state electronics with a precision quartz time clock and time adjusting slide knobs to sequentially operate through logical defrost steps for smooth but complete and effective defrosting. The SPDT relays facilitate flexible connection of solenoid valves and control relays. Defrost mode and step times are easily viewed through the clear cover of the NEMA 4 enclosure. Typically, one controller is used per defrost control valve group.
  • User friendly
  • SPDT relays, 10 amp switch rating
  • Entire program always visible
  • Battery back-up
  • Terminals for optional sensor defrost initiation

Applications

Designed specifically for defrosting industrial and large commercial refrigeration systems, the Frost Master® sequences solenoid valves and relays to provide quick and efficient defrosting of evaporator coils. Because of its SPDT relays and time adjustable defrost steps, this controller is suitable for almost every defrost application including: top and bottom feed unit coolers, blast freezer evaporators, and ice makers. 

Whether the evaporator uses hot gas, electricity, or water to defrost, this controller makes setting or changing defrost periods simple and easy. A very precise quartz time clock facilitates accurate setting of defrost start times. Time clocks include battery back-up in case of short term power failure to avoid any nuisance re-setting of clocks after power interruptions.
