Q&A


Manufactured products for the refrigeration industry since 1905

Both mechanical and electronic controls are rated to UL873 commercial refrigeration standards ie. 30,000 cycles

Controls allow for a more precise termination of the defrost cycle based on temperature or pressure value

Controls are often called defrost timers because defrost initiation is based on a time schedule

Easy to install and program especially in retrofit applications
