Pump Assembly
The pump assembly is driven by a synchronous
attached by a worm gear clamp to the discharge
motor. Rotation is in the counterclockwise
of the drain pump. The drain is then routed up the
direction at 3600 RPM. The motor drives a pump
side of the dishwasher and attached to the side
which supplies 100 percent filtered water at a
of the tub. This drain loop insures that an air
rate to approximately 12 GPM to one spray arm
pocket cannot form near the drain pump and
at a time. The spray arm's operation is alternated

cycle. The heater cycles ON and OFF for brief
periods during the drying cycle.
Standard Dry Air Flow
When the control advances to the "dry" portion of
the cycle, a linear actuator retracts a valve, which
opens a vent path through the console into the
kitchen.This venting method eliminates
discharging heated moisture into the motor
compartment. The heated, moist air leaving the
dishwasher through the console vent causes
