The control procedure for unbalanced loads is performed dynamically, before each spin cycle, as follows:
•
The phase starts with the inversion rotation of the drum at a speed of 55 rpm.
•
The phase begins at a speed of 55 rpm; the speed can never fall below this threshold, otherwise the
check is repeated.
•
At intervals of 400 ms, the balance is calculated and compared with predetermined limits. If the value is
less than the lower limit, the speed of the drum is increased by 2 rpm; if the value is higher, the speed of
the drum is reduced by 2 rpm. The reduction in the speed of the drum distributes the washing correctly;
this procedure is repeated until the wash load is completely balanced.
•
Correct balancing of the wash load is achieved at a speed of 115 rpm, after which the spin cycle begins.
The Unbalancing Control function takes place in four steps: each phase is characterised by a
value of
unbalancing threshold
and by a
time out
(max. time)
Step 0:
The zero phase has a preset unbalancing threshold; if correct balancing is achieved, the appliance
performs a spin pulse at 470 rpm, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm and followed by phase 1;
otherwise, after a maximum of 60 seconds the function passes to step 1.
Step 1:
The first phase has a different preset unbalancing threshold; if correct balancing is achieved, the
appliance performs the spin cycle, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm. Otherwise, after a maximum of
120 seconds, the function passes to step 2.
Step 2:
The second phase is characterised by a different unbalancing threshold: if correct balancing is not
achieved within 60 seconds, the function passes to step 3.
Step 3:
The third phase has a preset unbalancing threshold: if correct balancing is achieved within 90
seconds a spin pulse is performed, preceded by 5 sec at 100 rpm and followed by a new step 1;
otherwise, after a maximum of 90 seconds, the function passes to a new step 1.
If the unbalancing value remains excessive at the second attempt during step 3, the spin cycle is
skipped; if the balancing is not correct a reduced spin is performed.
