Evaporation tray for refrigerator condensation water

Abstract

An evaporation tray (1) for condensation water, in particular for a refrigerator, comprising a cartridge (2), containing one or more PTC-effect electric resistors (8), capable of evaporating condensation water (4) in the evaporation tray (1) by heating the cartridge (2), the cartridge (2) being fixed in the evaporation tray (1) so as to be at least partially coverable by condensation water (4) during the operation thereof, a control circuit (5) adapted to control the electric current power supply of the one or more PTC-effect electric resistors (8) comprising a switch (51) for the power supply of the one or more PTC-effect electric resistors (8), the control circuit (5) being programmed to open the switch (51) according to the attainment of a predetermined water level in the evaporation tray (1).
