Amana-Goodman 0130M00099 Defrost Thermostat

The Amana-Goodman 0130M00099 Defrost Thermostat senses the temperature at the evaporator area and activates the defrost control response when the sensed temperature is below or above the set setting. In HVAC systems, it is used to switch electrical contacts based on the temperature of the surrounding, and it passes the proper signal to the control circuit. It is mounted against or near the evaporator coil in the specified sensing position and is responsive to the temperature of the area being monitored. This control action controls the defrost sequence, minimizes frost buildup and keeps the heat transfer surface in proper condition during equipment operation.
