Basic Information

Mass Damper Operation

The mass damper is a simple assembly consisting of 
a heavy mass supported by gel.  This device reduces 
cabinet vibration through the dissipation of energy 
coming from “gel” deformation.  The use of the mass 
damper is effective for a wide range of drum speeds and 
installation conditions.

Drive Motor Operation

The motor is an induction, three phase AC motor that 
varies speeds when the voltage from the speed control 
board varies in frequency and amount. The motor has a 
tachogenerator that inputs the speed of the motor to the 
speed control board.

Speed Control

The speed control board is mounted to the base plate 
of the washer in the left rear corner of the washer. The 
speed control board controls the following operations:

1.   The speed of the drive motor is controlled by  

converting input line to neutral single phase 60 
Hertz voltage, to a varying frequency, three phase 
output voltage from zero to 300 VAC.  By varying the 
amount, frequency, and polarity of the voltage and 
comparing the input from the tachogenerator on the 
drive motor, the speed control board can operate the 
drive motor at a preprogrammed speed and 

 direction.

2.   The balance of the load in the washer is monitored 

during the spin cycle by converting the sine wave 
from the tachogenerator to square waves and 
comparing the distance between the square waves.  
If this distance exceeds a specified parameter, the 
wash load is determined to be unbalanced and the 

 

washer responds accordingly.
