The Miele water protection
system
The Miele water protection system
protects machine from water damage.
The system consists of three main
components:
1) the inlet hose
2) the electronic unit and the machine
housing
3) the drain hose
1) Inlet hose
– The inlet hose is tested to withstand
pressure of more than 14,000 kPa.
– It has a protective sleeve which is
made from metal to protect the hose
from damage.
2) Electronic unit and machine
housing
– Sump
Any leaking water is collected in a
sump in the base of the machine. A
float switches off the safety valves,
preventing any more water flowing
into the machine and water in the
suds container is pumped away.
–
Overflow protection
This prevents the maching taking in
too much water. If the water level
exceeds a certain level, the drain
pump switches in and pumps the
excess water away.
3) Drain hose
The drain hose is protected by a
ventilation system which prevents the
machine from being emptied
completely.
