Technical Information

4.0Description of Function

4.1Cabinet Construction

The inner cabinet is constructed of stainless steel (1.4301) welded onto four (4) vertical U-section sub-frames. The cabinet is sound and heat-insulated with bitumen and/or mineral wool matting.

4.2Fan Assembly

(Units equipped with Turbothermic Fan)

The fan assembly consists of the Fan Motor (M2) and a PTC Release Element (Y56), which opens the air outlet flap. The 120VAC fan operates in the drying stage, after a brief delay. The PTC Release Element is activated, and the Air Outlet Flap is partially opened. A bypass channel behind the air outlet is also opened and ensures that the moist air from the cabinet is mixed with dry air from the door interior. This measure prevents condensation from developing. After about a minute, the electronic switches off the Release Element, however the Air Outlet Flap remains partially open. After a few minutes the Release Element is activated again, which completely opens the Air Outlet Flap. The fan operates constantly throughout this period until the program ends.. The Air Outlet Flap remains open at program end and closes when the dishwasher door is opened.

4.2.1PTC Release Element

(Units equipped with Turbothermic Fan)

When 120VAC is applied to the Release Element, the PTC Resistor heats a small grease-filled capsule. As the grease expands it pushes a piston upward and slides the Air Outlet Flap to a partially open position. When the Release Element is activated the second time, the piston slides the Air Outlet Flap to a fully open position.
