Short cycling?

[george kornreich]

I have a Hunter 430 with factory-installed Grunert 110 Volt refrigeration/freezer. I'm concerned that may be cycling too frequently. The ambient air temp now is about 80 in the day, 70 at night, and the water temp (water cooled) is about 72 degrees. With the fridge door closed it cycles about once every 15-20 minutes for about 5 minutes. Does this sound like it's cycling too frequently? Thanks

CYCLING

Is this a holdover system? Or flat plates? If it is a holdover, the unit is merely responding to small rises in box temperature and "topping off" the plate(s). This is a normal function of a thermostatically controlled holdover system.

Same problem

I have a 430 with the same system and have had it checked a couple of times. I was told that the problem should lesten as the temp. rose. I have seen some improvement but I'm with you, I think it is too often. Let me know if you come up with anything.
