By causing R-404a to boil (evaporate) in the SEAFROST plates, we absorb the heat
energy there. This activity cools the liquid solution within the plates, causing them to
change phase (freezing to a solid). By freezing this solution, we have increased its heat
absorption capacity more than 100 times.
When the cycle is stopped (compressor is turned off) the plates will begin to absorb the
heat that leaks through the insulation in the icebox. The absorption will be at a constant
temperature until the phase change to liquid (melting) is complete. This is the principle
of holdover refrigeration and the function of your SEA FROST.
