47D43-811
Deluxe Defrost Control
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
The 47D43-811 is a microprocessor-based demand defrost
controller intended for Rheem heat pump systems. This
controller uses basic differential temperature means to detect
degradation of system performance due to ice build-up on the
outdoor coil. The controller uses “self-calibrating” principles
to calibrate itself to the heat pump system. The defrosting is
performed by reversing the direction of flow of refrigerant.
The 47D43-811 is meant to replace the following controllers
in Rheem heat pump systems:
FAILURE TO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE
INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL
INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.
Operator: Save these instructions for future use!
DESCRIPTION
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
!
• To prevent electrical shock and/or equipment damage,
disconnect electric power to system at main fuse or
circuit breaker box until installation is complete.
• This control is not intended for use in locations where
it may come in direct contact with water. Suitable
protections must be provided to shield the control from
exposure to water (dripping, spraying, rain, etc.)
• Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper or loss of
heat pump operation and/or shock hazard.
• Following installation or replacement, follow appliance
manufacturer’s recommended installation/service
instructions to insure proper operation.
• Do not use on circuits exceeding specied voltage.
Higher voltage will damage control and could cause
shock or re hazard.
If in doubt about whether your wiring is millivolt, line or low
voltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air
conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.
Do not exceed the specification ratings.
All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes
and ordinances.
This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled
carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could
cause the control to malfunction.
CAUTION
!
• This control is intended only for Rheem heat pump
systems.
• Replace 47D43-811 control as a unit - no user
serviceable parts.

Test Pins
The pins labeled TEST can be used to change operation
mode in the field. Momentarily short the test pins to force the
system into the defrost mode. Momentarily short the test pins
again to terminate the defrost mode. To avoid unnecessary
system mode transition, do not use the test pins frequently.
Diagnostic Features
The control continuously monitors system operation. If a fault
occurs, the two LEDs on the control will indicate a diagnostic
code, if more than one fault occurs, only the code with the
higher priority will be shown.
The table shows the diagnostic codes.

OPERATION
Each controller has 24 VAC input and B, Y, and D terminals
for connection to a standard thermostat. The controller has
pins for connection of two temperature sensors to measure
ambient and coil temperature, as well as connections for
high- and low-pressure switch monitoring. Controlled outputs
are outdoor fan, reversing valve, and compressor contactor.
The 47D43 provides two LEDs for status and fault indication.
Option Switch
Switch labeled SW1 is used to select the defrost mode
termination temperature of outdoor coil. Defrost mode is
terminated when the coil temperature exceeds the selected
termination temperature. Temperature options for SW1 switch
settings are:
B A
On Off 50o F
Off On 60o F
On On 70o F(default)
Off Off 80o F

INSTALLATION
NOTE
All wiring should be installed according to local and national
electrical codes and ordinances.
The 47D43-811 control may be mounted on any convenient
surface using the six standoffs provided.
The control must be secured to an area that will experience
a minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum
ambient temperature rating of 150o F. The control is approved
for minimum ambient temperatures of -40o F.
Any orientation is acceptable.
Refer to the wiring diagram and wiring table when connecting
the 47D43-811 control to other components of the system.
UL approved, 105o C rated 18 gauge min., stranded 2/64”
thick insulation wire is recommended for all low voltage safety
circuit connections.
UL approved, 105o C rated 16 gauge min., stranded 2/64”
thick insulation wire is recommended for all line voltage
connections.
Following installation or replacement, follow appliance
manufacturer’s recommended installation or service
instructions to insure proper operation.
On some units, the Outdoor Ambient Temperature (OAT) and
Outdoor Coil Temperature (OCT) sensors may be attached
permanently to the controller. The 47D43-811 includes
replacement OAT and OCT sensors that plug onto the 2- and
3-pin connectors on the controller board.
Before removing the old controller, note the location of the
OCT sensor on the outdoor coil. The new sensor should
be attached to the coil in the same location, or as close as
possible. The OAT sensor is typically 24-48” long, although
some controllers have the sensor on the board. Placement of
the OAT sensor is not as critical as the OCT sensor, but both
sensors are required for the controller to operate.
Six metal standoffs, 0.375 inch long, are used to support and
mount the control into the unit.
Board size is 3.375 in. x 3.625 in. and requires 1 inch of
headroom (not including mounting).
