REFRIGERATING DEVICE WITH MOISTURE SEPARATOR, AND OPERATING METHOD OF REFRIGERATING DEVICE Russian patent published in 2012 - IPC F25D21/04 F25D17/04 

FIELD: heating.

SUBSTANCE: refrigerating device with cooling agent circuit has compressor, storage compartment, as well as auxiliary compartment located at some distance from storage compartment. Auxiliary compartment includes renewable moisture absorber, as well as fan for air circulation between storage compartment and auxiliary compartment, which is provided by means of air direction changing devices with possibility of being disconnected from storage compartment and with possibility of being connected to the environment of the refrigerating device. Control scheme is tuned so that evaporator cooling agent flow corresponding to the storage compartment shall be shut off while the fan is in operation. Operating method of refrigerating device involves the following stages: a) need for drying in storage compartment of refrigerating device is recorded; b) if the need for drying has been recorded, air circulation between storage compartment and auxiliary compartment (9) containing moisture absorber is performed; at that, storage compartment shall not be cooled during step (b); c) air circulation is performed between auxiliary compartment and environment.

EFFECT: use of this group of inventions allows excluding the evaporator freezing.
