Automatic Computerized Drying Control
DESCRIPTION
The Automatic Computer Drying Control is used to manage the drying and
cooling cycles of one clothes dryer. The operator has the flexibility to select
either automatic or timed drying and either automatic or timed cooling. When
automatic is selected, the drying cycle will be terminated when the clothes are
dry. A dryness sensor "feels" the clothes and signals the control when they are
dry. In the timed mode, the operator sets the time and temperature for the load.
FEATURES:
Automatic/Timed drying selection.
Automatic/Timed cooling selection.
Fabric selection (in automatic mode only).
LED display of cycle time.
Drying temperature range of 100° F - 195° F
(Timed mode only).
Drying time range of 0-60 minutes (Timed mode only).
Cooling time range of 0-60 minutes (Timed mode only).
Repeat Last Cycle feature.
Safety tumble cycle.
Reversing/Non-reversing selection (option).
Power off after 30 minutes of non-use.
DRYNESS SENSOR
When in the auto drying mode, the length of the cycle is controlled by a
“dryness sensor”. The sensor works on a “capacitor charge time” principle. The
electronic circuit looks at the charge on the capacitor in the dryness circuit.
When the capacitor is fully charged, the circuit ends the drying cycle. One side
of the capacitor is connected to a dryness probe located in the center of the
basket. Wet clothes hitting the probe will “discharge” the capacitor or prevent it
from reaching full charge. As the clothes dry, they have less effect on discharg-
ing until finally it is fully charged, ending the drying cycle. The time to charge
the capacitor with no clothes load is listed:
FABRIC SELECTION CHARGE TIME
Heavy 11.5 Minutes
Cotton 5.5 Minutes
Permanent Press 5.5 Minutes
Delicate 5.5 Minutes
