3. If the motor stalls after the drum has moved at least 42 degrees, a “Clothes Jammed”
fault will be internally flagged and the drum will reverse and the door will open before
trying to close again. After three unsuccessful attempts, the drum door will open, the
lid will be unlocked and the relevant User Warning will occur.
4. At the “Retract Grabber Position”, 142 degrees from “Home”, the sensor module
begins moving away the grabber.
•
If a fault is detected during the actuator movement, the operation of the actuator will
be checked. The drum will stop and an attempt will be made at moving the actuator
back to lower the door grabber.
•
If a fault is again detected, a maximum of five attempts are made at moving the
grabber, alternating the direction with each attempt, until finally the dryer will display
the relevant fault code and remain in the stationary position with the lid unlocked. If
however the actuator is operated correctly, the grabber is left in the retracted
position.
5. When the grabber is confirmed to have retracted, the drum motor is sped up to 47
RPM and the sensor module will begin or continue the normal drying operation.
When
Pause
is pressed or the drying is completed:
1. If the drum is rotating in the Close direction, then it will be reversed and the drum
speed will be set at 20 RPM, at which speed the position of the drum is verified using
the tacho “Gap” as its reference. If however the drum was moving in the open
direction, its position may have already being verified at the higher speed, but if not,
will be set to slow down to 20 RPM until the position is verified. If within 40 seconds
the sensor module is unable to verify its position, either because no “Gap” of sufficient
arc has been detected or a correct count for a complete revolution of the drum cannot
be obtained, then a fault code will be displayed.
2. Once the position is known, the drum speed begins to slow to 5 RPM. Provided the
drum speed has reduced to at least 18 RPM when the drum position is 132 degrees
from the extended door grabber position (210 degrees from “Home”), the lowering of
the grabber begins.
3. As the bridges approach the lowered door grabber, wings on each side of the grabber
enter the bridge channels. If the wings do not enter the channels, the grabber will be
unable to open the drum door (refer to the diagram below).
As the drum continues to rotate, the engagement ribs attached to the door grabber
unlatch the drum door hinge arms, lifting them out of the channel slots. The hinge
arms are raised by details on the door grabber to the top face of the bridge channels.
The drum continues to rotate in the opening direction, while the drum door is held
stationary by the door grabber.
Door Grabber is lowered against the Wrapper
