Whirlpool Smart All-In-One Washer & Dryer
GENERAL INFORMATION
Theory of Operation
The illustraon below gives a brief descripon of the components involved specically on a Dry Cycle. Knowledge on the
system’s physical parts is needed in order to properly diagnose and troubleshoot the “all-in-one” washer/dryer.
1. Blower - Generates process air ow through the heater
channel, tub, and condenser duct.
2. Air Heater - Heats the air so it gets into the tub at high
temperature and reduced relave humidity.
3. Heater Channel - Conducts hot process air into the tub, so
it can remove humidity from the laundry.
4. Inlet Air NTC - Used as a feedback for the air heater
Control Soware.
5. Drain Pump - Pumps out condensed humidity and cooling
valve water that accumulates in the sump.
6. Sump NTC - Used as a feedback for the Auto-Dry Cycle
terminaon algorithms (apart from being used in heated
wash cycles).
7. Condenser Duct - Process air goes through condenser
duct to “get dry” - humidity is condensed and drained out
of the “all-in-one” washer/dryer.
8. Cooling Valve - Used to spray water into the condenser
duct, to cool down the process air and condense humidity.
