Dew Sensor
If excessive moisture or condensation is present inside the machine ( an internal humidity of more
than 98Yo)the unit will stop if running. Until the moisture level decreases only the Eject mode will
operate. To sense the humidity, a dew sensor is used. The sensor is a special variable resistor which
change resistance with ambient humidity.
The sensor ranges in resistance from about 5K ohm at 90Y0humidity to about 50K omh at 98Y0
humidity. Normally, the voltage across the sensor is low because of its low resistance.
But if moisture condenses inside the unit, the SYSTEM CONTROL IC voltage of Dew terminal
increases to indicate a Dew condition.

Dew sensor on:
During Dew formation is detected and 80 minutes after completion of Dew
detection.
Dew sensor off:
80 minutes later after copmletion of Dew detection.
