General information

The machine may be connected to a hot water tap upto 60 °C.
For cleaner and dryer results however, it is advised to connect the machine to a
cold water tap

with extension 80 cm

va =1,3 m
v b=1,6 m
v c =1,4 m (3,6 m with extension set)
v d =1,2 m (3,4 m with extension set)
v e =1,6 m (3,6 m with extension set)
v f =1,2 m (3,2 m with extension set)

Water connection:

v The water connection is ¾”
v Minimal water pressure 0,5 bar (to be tested with a bucket, minimal 8 l/min)
v Maximum water pressure 10 bar

Warmwater recognition:
If during hot rinsing the temperature of the incoming water is higher than 45°C , the
temperature of the hot rinsing is increased to 72°C.
The heat exchanger is not being filled during the drying process.

Aquasensor II
By means of the Aqua sensor it is decided whether or not the rinsing

water will be used for the next rinsing cycle.

The Aqua sensor II has two LED’s

v Red LED (measures turbidity)
v Green LED (measures soil remains)

Because of this, more soiling (like tea or
spinach) will be recognized.

The calibrating process uses water, reason not to calibrate every washing cycle.
During the first 3 washing cycles an extra 400 ml water is being used for

calibrating the Aqua sensor.
The calibrating process is repeated every 20th

washing cycle.

Load recognition

How it is determined whether or not water has to be added because of toppled
crockery.

Circulation pump

with tacho and sycasym control

Capacitor

Tachogenerator

Single phase AC motor

Tacho generator

Motor RPM is measured by means of a tacho generator.
Speed control is applied by means of electronic phase shifting.

v Load recognition
At the first wetting of the dishes, some water will stay behind, for instance in a
toppled dish or plate, so under circumstances the machine begins washing in
short supply of water.
If so, the pump may catch air, starting to run irregularly while making more noise.

The tacho generator recognizes this irregular running and extra water is supplied.

v At the first test 200 ml

v At the second test another 200 ml

v At the third test another 500 ml

Max. 900 ml of extra water supply is possible.
This means that not 2,8 l but 3,7 l of water is being used for washing.

• RPM reduction d uring soft programs

• RPM reduction at rinsing change (shifting from upper basket washing to

Function:
At the first pulse the soap dispenser is opened. Lever A is put in the position which
facilitates – at the next pulses – the operation of lever B (each pulse lasting 20 seconds).

Depending on the chosen amount of
rinsing aid, this lever B is being
activated (2 ml per pulse )

Drying time is being decreased and temperature of rinsing aid is lowered to
55 °C
2: Standard drying:
3: Extra drying:
Temperature of rinsing aid is increased with 3 °C

Selecting amount of rinsing aid: only in combination with top soap dispenser.
