4.15 Water Mixing
4.15.1 Water Mixing - External Flowmeter
Refer to figure 4-9.
The main water flows into the WaterProof system (Item 10), to the
Water Intake Assembly where it passes a Non-Return Device (Item 6).
The Non Return Valve prevents a reflux of water from the machine into
the supply should a vacuum develop in the system.
The water path is then divided at the bypass (Item 5), and up to 5% of
the water flows directly into the cabinet without passing through the
Water Softener. Depending on the Water Hardness Selector Setting
(Item 4), a proportion of the water flows directly into the cabinet via the
Cabinet Ventilation, (Item 9). The remaining water fills the reservoir in
the Water Inlet (Item 7), for later reactivation of the softener. When the
reservoir is full, water flows through the Ion Exchanger (Item 14), and
the intake opening in the sump (Item 2), to enter the cabinet.
Mains water mixing (External Flowmeter)
Figure 4-10: Water Hardness Selector
With correct programming and operation the water softener should
supply water with a hardness level < 4° in all wash programs. With
certain types of glass it may be necessary to set the wash water
hardness individually to avoid possible glass corrosion. Depending on
the water hardness, the selector at the Water Intake (Non Plus Models
Only) must be set to between 0 - 3. This sets the quantity of mains
water flowing directly into the cabinet without passing the Water
Softener. For details, see the model specific operating manual.
