sensor assembly contains a LED transmitter which

emits light and a receptor (similar to a photo-

cell) which receives light. The wash water passes

between the transmitter and receptor, the control

interprets these readings to determine the soil level

and if any prewash or rinse cycles may be skipped.

The cycle design sets parameters to a maximum

cycle length; and the turbidity response will shorten

the overall cycle length if soil level is below the

times during a cycle to monitor soil levels, energy

can be saved by removing unneeded rinses, thus

shortening the overall cycle time.
