Electronic Residual Moisture Detection Unit EF 102
As with most other Miele household dryers, the drying stages of this
appliance are electronically monitored and controlled. As can be seen in
the block diagram, the desired level of dryness (i.e. the desired residual
moisture level) set at the timer is passed via the printed circuit and the
pulse generator stage to the residual moisture comparator.
The 4 minute time stage prevents the timer from advancing to the next
stage too early after switching on if the level switch has not reset.
The stainless-steel drum body and its internal ribs serve as sensor
contacts to monitor the residual moisture content of the load. Once the
required dryness level has been detected, a control stage lasting 1 minute
begins. The timer will not advance to the next stage of the program
unless the correct moisture level is maintained throughout this control
stage.
The level switch closes when the condensate collector becomes too full.
This switches a relay which then sends step impulses to the timer, until it
has advanced to the “
Stop
” position, and also switches an LED indicator
on.
