Abstract
A primary refrigerant circuit allows circulation of a primary refrigerant and includes a primary compressor, a cascade heat exchanger, a primary heat exchanger, and a primary switching mechanism. A secondary refrigerant circuit allows circulation of a secondary refrigerant and includes a secondary compressor, the cascade heat exchanger, a utilization heat exchanger, and a secondary switching mechanism. The secondary refrigerant circuit includes a bypass flow path connecting a portion between the utilization heat exchanger and the cascade heat exchanger and a suction flow path of the secondary compressor, and a bypass expansion valve provided on the bypass flow path. Executed is defrosting operation of circulating the primary refrigerant in the order of the primary compressor, the primary heat exchanger, and the cascade heat exchanger, and circulating the second refrigerant in the order of the secondary compressor, the cascade heat exchanger, and the bypass flow path.
