A shared motor and linkage drive selective pistons for different detergents, cutting washer pump complexity, size, and cost.
A cam-counted piston and crank mechanism meters fixed detergent volume despite viscosity changes from temperature or brand differences.
Flow sensing lets the controller run the recirculation pump only on demand or during refresh cycles, cutting energy use and pump wear.
Inlet flow sensing and PWM pump control match drainage rate to water supply, reducing tray overflow, noise, and power loss.
