Important Role of Water Pressure in Washing Machines

Posted by

Water is one of the main elements that are important in life. Every living creature needs water. Not only for drinking, water utilization also occurs in other activities such as cooking, bathing, washing and others. Washing manually or using a machine still requires a lot of water. The use of machines for washing requires sufficient water to operate. Therefore the water pressure in the washing machine must be a major concern when you will install a washing machine at home.
How to work water pressure on the washing machine
Washing machines in ancient times were controlled by timer programs that worked simply. When charging water on the engine, the timer motor in the program is turned off. The whole program stops until the water pressure system detects that the required water level has been reached. Then the motor timer is on and the machine is back in operation. This system tolerates low water pressure because the engine works not depending on time, only depends on the amount of water achieved according to washing needs.
But now, washing machines have been controlled by software built in PCBs that work like computer programs. This is an advancement in washing machine technology that provides safe features and efficiency improvements for the machine through regulating water pressure in the washing machine. However, there is a negative impact of this system, namely that water pressure that is not high enough in filling the water will make the program detect errors and cancel the program. In a computerized system, charging water is limited by time. So if the water pressure is low so that the filled water in the engine does not reach the required level in the programmed time period, the system will read this as a mistake and cancel the program. The machine stops operating.
Almost all washing machines currently available are computerized automated programs. If the water discharge in your house is not smooth and causes the water pressure in the washing machine to be low then the washing machine cannot operate. If forced to continue working can cause damage to the engine.
Of course not all houses have a fairly smooth water debit. Even houses that have been equipped with wells or water tanks to ensure that the water supply is available do not sufficiently guarantee that the water pressure is high enough. If your house has a water tank, make sure that the maximum water tank is approximately 1 meter from the washing machine to maintain high water pressure. Even if this cannot be fulfilled then you must provide a water pump and ensure the pressure from the water pump meets the water pressure standards of your washing machine.
This water pressure problem is common in almost every household and is a concern of several well-known manufacturers in Indonesia, say one of them Sharp. Sharp innovates on its products. Applying a technology that is able to make its products work with small water pressure conditions. Only with a pressure of 0.02 Mpa the washing machine is able to operate normally. The 0.02 Mpa water pressure is equivalent to the height of the water container / water tank of the washing machine about 1 meter.
Water pressure in the washing machine cannot be considered one eye if you want your washing machine to work optimally and last longer in use. For that you must ensure high water pressure in your home before buying a washing machine. And if the problem is difficult to overcome even with a water pump. There is no harm, if you start considering washing machines with low water pressure system technology (low water pressure system).
