Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an air conditioning apparatus has one or a plurality of indoor units, an outdoor unit, and a controller. The one or plurality of indoor units have an indoor heat exchanger, and an indoor expansion valve in which a degree of opening is variable. The outdoor unit has an outdoor heat exchanger, a four-way valve, a compressor, and a discharge pressure sensor configured to detect a pressure of a refrigerant discharged from the compressor. When a discharge pressure detected by the discharge pressure sensor is less than a predetermined pressure threshold value while a heating operation is performed, the controller sets a maximum time for continuing a defrosting operation started by a start condition of the defrosting operation being satisfied to be shorter than a maximum time for continuing the defrosting operation when the discharge pressure is equal to or higher than the pressure threshold value.

Claim (Index 4):
The air conditioning apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein the controller operates by being supplied with electric power, and\n the controller sets the maximum time for continuing the defrosting operation to be shorter than the maximum time for continuing the defrosting operation when the discharge pressure is equal to or higher than the pressure threshold value, in a case where the discharge pressure detected by the discharge pressure sensor is less than the pressure threshold value, while performing the heating operation when the heating operation is an initial heating operation after the start of supply of electric power to the controller.
