What is the refrigerator timer?
The refrigerator timer, also known as a defrosting timer, is a device that is used to control the amount of frost in the refrigerator. It is regularly fastened so that the frost in the fridge melts so as not to accumulate frost. Most modern refrigerators use refrigerators to keep the frost level relatively stable. If the refrigerator begins to accumulate frost, does not cool properly or is too cold, it may be signs that the timer is defective and needs to be replaced. It is a raw clock that switches back and forth between defrost mode and regular cooling mode. When the refrigerator timer turns into a defrost mode, the refrigerator's refrigerator is turned off and the defrost heater is activated to melt the frost that has formed in the freezer. When the timer returns to the cooling mode, the refrigerator can cool again and the defrost heater is turned off. The total internal refrigerator temperature is maintained in a safe extent.
historically, people had to hand their refrigerators manually. This included emptying the refrigerator, disconnecting and allowing all ice inside the melt. In addition to being a time -consuming process, this could also be a problem with food safety, because foods could be dangerously warm when they were kept outside the fridge. For this reason, many companies have begun to develop the so -called "frost free" refrigerators that use the refrigeration timer to control the process of defrosting.
The refrigerator timer may eventually fail. People can try their timers using multitester. Power supply to the fridge should be cut to remove the device. Then one probe on the multitester can be used on a common terminal (often labeled "C" or "3") the time of the refrigerator. The second probe can be used on one of the three remaining terminals on the refrigerator, one by one to get reading for each terminal. Reading for one to two terminals should be "zero", so farWhat the other one or two should read "infinity". When the refrigerator timer is manually set to other settings, these values should be turned. If the values do not follow this formula, the device should be replaced.
