MACHINE FUNCTION

Cold air is drawn into the dryer cabinet interior thro ug h lo uvr es in the cabi ne t ba se, pa sse s throu gh
the large hole in the inner back panel adjac ent to th e fan a nd is driv en th rough the elemen t hous ing
on the inner back panel. After passing through the element windings and through holes in the drum
back plate into the drum interior, the now warm air is driven through the load to the front of the drum.

A webbing seal, fixed to the inside of the inner back panel, prevents warm air being driven into the
cabinet interior. As the drum revolves, the load is tumbled through the warm air stream, that extracts
moisture from the damp fabric. The now mo ist and coo led air passes through the filter in the air duct
on the back of the front panel, where any fluff picked up from the load is removed. The air then travels
through the front to rear air duct, leaving the dryer at the rear outlet.

If required, a vent hose may be attached to the outlet, to take exhaust air away from the dryer.

A cut-out on the element housing, cuts the electricity Live supply to the element, if the air temperature
in the housing becomes too high due to a restriction in the air flow, e.g a blocked filter. The cut-out
automatically resets when the air temperature drops to an acceptable level and cycles if the fault
persists.

A second 'one shot' cut-out, mounted alongside the 'auto reset' cut- out, is fitted as a safety device to
break the element Neutral connection, if the air temperature reaches an unsafe level due to failure of
the 'auto reset' cut-out.

There are two thermostats in the front air duct when only on e is in use at any one time de pending on
which programme is selected. These sense the exhaust temperature rise when the load becomes
dry and energise the timer motor on the main timer. This allows it to advance to cool run.

AUTOMATIC DRYING - Fitted to some models only

To work correctly High Heat has to be enabled and between 3 kg to 6 kg of Cottons dried. If smaller
or delicate loads are dried using the automatic setting, erratic results will be achieved.

Automatic Drying Explanation
NOTE: - The heat switch must be set to the high p osition otherwise there will be no circuit to the timer

motor or heater when the exhaust thermostat signals tha t the clot he s are dry.

Sequence of Automatic Drying System

• First 20 minutes, full heat controlled by the timer. This is to pre -heat the clothes and drum before

the exhaust thermostats take control.

• The timer moves to its next cam position. The timer motor is now disconnected and the dryer

tumbles and heats.

• When the clothes are dry, the exhaust thermostat opens. This provides a Live supply to the timer

motor. The timer moves to the next cam position.

• 5 minutes of tumbling with the lower element only. The timer moves to the next cam position.

• Finally 7.5 minutes of tumble with no heat.

PROGRAMMES

COOLTUMBLE PHASE

This is the programmes final phase. Approximate ly 10 minutes before the finish, th ekno b advances
automatically to the Cool Tumble Phase. Heating elements turn themselves off and clothing is cooled
down, after this the buzzer will sound (if selected) and the clothing ready to be taken out.

Always allow the dryer to complete this phase.

EASY IRON PROGRAMME

Easy Iron is a short 10 minute programme (8 minutes of heat , followed by a 2 minute cool tumble
period) which fluffs the fibres of clothing that have been le ft in the same positio n/ lo ca tion for an
extended period of time. The cycle relaxes the fibres and makes them easier to iron and fold.

NOTE: - Easy Iron is not a drying programme and should not be used for wet articles of clothing.
For best results: -

1. Do not load more than the maximum capacity. These numbers refer to dry weight.

Fabric Maximum Load

Cotton and Cotton mixtures 2.5 kg
Synthetics 2 kg
Denim 2 kg

2. Unload the dryer immediately after the end of the programme, hang, fold or iron the articles and

put them away in the closet. Should this not be possible, repeat the programme.

The Easy Iron effect varies from one fabric to the next. It works well on traditional fabrics like Cotton
or Cotton mix and less well on acrylic fabrics and on materials such as Tencel®.

COMPONENT DESCRIPTION

CONSOLE PANEL

This panel contains the user controls, which consist of a timer knob, for selecting the timed and
sensed drying periods, two push switches for heat se lection an d buzzer selection and a mo mentary
switch to start the dryer. A Red LED glows to indicate when the dryer is active.

TIMER

The timer system is made up from up to three timers, two mounted on the console and one on the
kickstrip.

Timer 1 controls the motor and heater . Thi s h as a spi nd le to wh ic h a k no b i s a tta ch ed to enab le the
user to select the required programme. Timer 2 controls the motor reversing; this is mounted on the
kickstrip. Timer 3 is used to delay the start of a programme. This also has a spindle to which a knob
is attached to enable a time delay to be set by the user.

The dryer must be set to the high heat position for the Eco drying sy stem to operate fail ure to do so
will cause the timer to advance to cool run without drying the load.

Timer 1

Mounted on the console, the timer is used to control the motor and heating during the drying
programmes. The timer incorporates a timed cycle with 130 minutes of heated drying followed by a

7.5 minute cool run (137.5 minutes maximum cycle time marked as 14 0 minutes on the timer knob).
Two ’Eco' programmes are incorporated with are automatic programmes to provide heated drying

until a thermostat operates (when the load is dry), the timer then advances to a 7.5 minute cool run.
The cam of this timer is held on the heated part of the cycle by cutting the circuit to its motor.

The dryer motor continues to be reversed by timer 2. When the load is dry, a thermostat in the front
duct of the dryer operates which powers the motor of timer 1 and this allows the timer to advance to

cool run. The two 'Eco' programmes allow for diffe rent load sizes, for which different thermos tats are
selected by the timer. Timer 2 reverses the motor direction every 2.5 minutes.

An optional crease removal programme is provided, which consists of 7.5 minutes of heat and motor
followed by a cool tumble period of 2.5 minutes. All of the ab ove pr ogra mmes have the opti on of a n
external buzzer, which can sound until the timer is manually advanced.

Timer 2

Mounted on the base panel, the timer is used to control the reversal of the motor during the drying
programmes. The timer reverses the motor direction every 2.5 minutes.

Timer 3 - Not fitted to all models

This is an Electro-mechanical 12-hour timer used to delay the start of the drying cycle.

HEAT SWITCH

Normally open push-push switch. The switch locates into the facia moulding and it allows the user to
choose high or low heat settings. By consulting the wiring diagram, it can be seen that by operating
this switch, either all or half of the heater unit is selected, giving 2200W or 1100W.

For full heat switch is in the out position and low heat in the in (depressed) position.
High heat must be selected for the auto-drying programmes to operate, if low heat is selected the

dryer will advance to cool run without drying the load.

DOOR

A plastic moulded chassis with a glass bowl retained by plastic mouldings.

DOOR LOCK OPERATION
DOOR SWITCH - Models AS600VXFR, AS600VEX, TVM631EUHA

Normally open single pole micro-switch activated by the door on closure. It is the first switch in the
electrical circuit and therefore its rating corresponds to the full load of the product. The switch is
integrated in the door catch assembly that allows the door to be opened from the inside.

DOOR INTERLOCK RELAY - Models AS600VXFR, AS600VEX, TVM631EUHA

The door interlock relay mounts on the rear of the front panel. The relay has double pole isolation
which acts as an additional safety feature. The relay prevents the machine from operating when the
door is closed until the start switch has bee n activated. If the door is opened duri ng a programme the
dryer will stop and will only start again when the door is closed and the start button pressed, this is a
safety requirement for tumble dryers with large door openings.

NOTE: - If the door is opened mid cycle, the machine will not restart when the door is closed.
The machine will only restart when the door is closed and then the Start button is pressed.

Bitron Door Lock Operation - Models AS600VKW, AS600AXAG

Door Open - Dryer Off

Trying to turn the machine on with the door open, the solenoid is unable to operate the bistable cam
to close the contacts, because it is locked by the latch.

Door Closed - Dryer Off

Closing the door, the latch (now rotated by the door hook) allows the movement of th e bistable cam,
but the dryer is still OFF until the solenoid is energised.

Door Closed - Dryer On

Turning the machine on with the dryer door closed, the solenoid pushes the bistable cam (freed by
the latch) allowing the closing of the contacts.

Door Opened During Drying

When the door is opened during drying, the dryer will turn off automatically by the latch in its back
rotation, this pushes back the bistable cam towards the solenoid, opening the contacts.

Re-closing the door will not restart the machine until the machine is turned back on.

Safety Function

If the latch is accidental rotated by the customer with the door open, the machine will not start.
Without the latch in position, the latch rotates 30% further and sets the bistable cam in its safety
position. The safety position will not allow the machine to start. The door will need to be manually
repositioned to reset by a Service Engineer.

BUZZER

Eco models fitted with the Easy Care timer have a buzzer fitted which, if selected by the buzzer
switch, sounds to indicate to the user the end of a programme. The buzzer is mounted on the door
interlock relay PCB that is mounted on the rear of the console.

DRUM

The drum comprises of a zinc-coated front and rear body and two removable plastic lifters. The rear
of the drum is perforated to allow the passage of air. Fixed to the rear pressing is a support shaft,
which runs in a bearing located in the rear panel of the dryer.

A drive pin and collar on the drum shaft prevents forward thrust during use. The large front flanged
aperture rotates on bearing pads.

HEATER ELEMENT

The element comprises of front and rear pressings spaced apart with Mica type insulating material.
Through the insulating pieces are 4 runs of coiled resistance wire supported from end to end by
insulating material. High temperature insulated wires are crimped to the ends of the resistance strips
to complete the circuit.

SAFETY CUT-OUT (BLUE SPOT)

This device is a disc type thermostat set to operate at 150°C it is used as a safety device. It is
positioned above the element, to the right of the cycling thermostat on the element housing. If this
device fails it cannot be reset.

IF THIS DEVICE OPERATES, IT SHOULD BE REPLACED TOGETHER WITH THE CYCLING
THERMOSTAT (see next paragraph).

CYCLING THERMOSTAT

The cycling thermostat is mounted adjacent to the safety cut-out, is designed to open at 120°C.
It limits the temperature of the heat entering the drum.

ECO THERMOSTATS

These are of self-resetting closed disc construction, mounted in the front air duct. They control the
timer motor on timer 1. When the load is dry, the selecte d thermostat operates and powers the time r
motor; this allows the timer to advance to coo l run. The Fu ll load the rmostat ( E) is design ed to open
at 55°C and the half load (e) is designed to open at 60°C.

MOTOR

A two pole P.S.C running at 2800 rpm with the impeller fitted to the rear end of the shaft and the drive
belt running directly in grooves in the front end of the shaft. It is protected from overload by a
self-resetting internal cut-out which interrupts the electrical supply to the windings.

It is used together with a capacitor that is mounted on the base of the dryer.

DRUM REAR SEAL

This unit comprises of a ring of foam with a webbing bearing face. Lubrication is applied to the drum
where the webbing surface runs, to reduce noise and wear. The seal reduces air losses at the rear
of the drum. The joints in the foam are sealed with glue and the joints in the webbing are stitched to
further reduce air leakage.

12

DRUM EARTHING

As the drum is supported in plastic bearings, it is necessary to provide a means of earthing.
The earthing on the drum is achi eved by the teardrop shape d bearing fixing sc rew. the correct screw

must always be used.

BELT

A 9 rib belt has been used in production. The l ength stamped on the belt is 1860 mm. This is the fitted
length. Prior to fitting, the length is approximately 1805 mm.
