Dishwashers

Innovative products and designs provide quieter operation, lower electricity consumption, and more effective cleaning. TE’s line of connectors, sensors, relays and tubing products help to optimize dishwashers. Our sensors help to ensure proper operation and our tubing products can help with wire management and protection - turning your connected home ideas into a reality.

Introducing a revolutionary new way to advance dishwasher design.  TE’s range of power connectors and relays allow manufacturers to appropriately size components to match the new, lower power requirements. Additionally, our sensors help to ensure proper operation while our tubing products can help with wire management and protection. 

Harness

The wiring harness interconnects the control board to the various components throughout the dishwasher, such as motors, heating elements, water pumps and valves, sensors, door locks, etc. A typical wiring harness would include power and signal connectors, terminals and splices, heat shrink tubing and labels.

Main Control & User Interface

The control board is the brain of the appliance. It accepts inputs from the user through buttons, switches or touch devices; and actuates the motors, heating elements, water pumps and valves to perform the chosen task. A typical control board will have wire-to-board power and signal connectors, sockets and relays.

Circulation Pump

A circulation pump sprays water at high pressure to clean the dishes. Circulation pumps are connected to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors like the RAST connector.

Drain Pump

A drain pump flushes water away at the completion of a wash or rinse cycle. Drain pumps are connected to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors.

Door Lock

A door lock prevents a dishwasher door from being opened while water is spraying. Door locks are connected to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors.

Heating Element

A dishwasher heating element heats incoming water for more effective cleaning. Heating elements connect to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors.

Water / Diverter Valve

A water valve controls when the high-pressure spray is in operation. Water valves connect to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors.

Sensors

Sensors measure temperature, humidity, turbidity, water level and more so that the control board can perform the task input by the user. Sensors are connected to the wiring harness using individual terminals or multi-position connectors.
