A heat pump for a pool or spa may include a human-machine interface (HMI). The HMI of the heat pump may be movable relative to a housing or body of the heat pump such that regardless of the location and orientation of the installation of the body of the heat pump, the HMI may be positioned so that it is accessible to a user. A heat pump may additionally or alternatively include means for managing condensate created by operation of said heat pump.

A method of operating a refrigeration system. The method includes operating a multi-temperature refrigeration system that has a plurality of heat absorption heat exchangers in a single temperature mode. A number of the plurality of heat absorption heat exchangers are determined that require defrosting a single heat absorption heat exchanger is directed into a different operational state when the number of heat absorption heat exchangers that require defrosting is equal to one. E of the plurality of heat absorption heat exchangers is directed into a defrost mode when the number of heat absorption heat exchangers that requires defrosting is more than one.

A heat exchanger is provided including a first manifold and a second manifold separated from one another. A plurality of tube segments arranged in a spaced parallel relationship fluidly couple the first and second manifold. The plurality of tube segments includes a bend defining a first slab and a second slab. The second slab is arranged at an angle to the first slab. The heat exchanger has a multi-pass configuration relative to an air flow including at least a first pass and a second pass. The first pass has a first flow orientation and the second pass has a second flow orientation. The second flow orientation is different from the first flow orientation.

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of heat pumps, in particular to an air source CO.sub.2 heat pump system for preventing an evaporator from frosting by using heat of a heat regenerator. The air source CO.sub.2 heat pump system mainly includes an air source heat pump system, a regenerative heat exchange tank and a cooling pump. Through the regenerative heat exchange tank, on the one hand, the temperature drop of regenerative heat of the system is further increased and throttling loss is reduced; on the other hand, the heat generated by the regenerative temperature drop is configured for heat storage used for defrosting, and configured for overheating temperature rise.

A scroll compressor includes a shell that is cylindrical, a fixed scroll fixed to an inner wall of the shell, an orbiting scroll that faces the fixed scroll, a frame fixed to the inner wall of the shell and that supports the orbiting scroll, and a heat source device provided on an outside of the shell and between the fixed scroll and the frame and configured to heat or cool the shell from the outside.

There are provided a sample cooling device capable of effectively removing moisture in the air inside an accommodating chamber where a sample container is accommodated, and of preventing a problem caused by occurrence of frost, an autosampler provided with the same, and a sample cooling method. A first driving process of setting a set temperature of a dehumidifier section to at or below the freezing point, and a second driving process of stopping driving of the dehumidifier section or of raising the set temperature of the dehumidifier section to above the freezing point after the first driving process is performed over a predetermined period of time are performed. Thus, the set temperature of the dehumidifier section may be made to at or below the freezing point by the first driving process, and moisture in the air inside the accommodating chamber may be made to temporarily attach to the dehumidifier section as frost and then be melted by the second driving process and be collected as water.

A planar sealing panel member for cleaning the condenser coils of a cooling appliance. This member has at least one hole in its surface to accommodate a hose supplying compressed air. It also has affixation means on its surface so as to hold the sealing panel against the cooling appliance adjacent the opening(s) holding the condenser coils to form a substantially sealed enclosure along with the appliance structure within which the coils reside when cleaned using compressed air.

In an air-conditioning apparatus, a heat source side heat exchanger, intermediate heat exchangers, and use side heat exchangers are formed in separate bodies respectively and adapted to be disposed at separate locations one another. In a heat medium circulation circuit where the intermediate heat exchanger and the use side heat exchanger are connected, temperature sensors are installed. An anti-freezing operation mode is provided in which, when the detection temperatures of the temperature sensors become equal to or lower than a set temperature Ts while a compressor or pumps are stopped, the heat medium is circulated to perform anti-freezing of the heat medium.
