  • Publication number: 20070163620
    Abstract: A sump assembly includes a sump, a divider, and a drain. The sump has a top, a bottom, and a cavity in which rinse water and soiled water are stored. The divider divides the cavity into a first portion and a second portion, which are in fluid communication. The drain is in fluid communication with the second portion. A first water level is approximately level with the drain's opening. During the rinse cycle, the rinse water enters the first portion proximate the top of the sump and raises the first water level to a second water level in the first portion. The rinse water is proximate the top and the soiled water is proximate the bottom of the sump. The second water level directs soiled water proximate the bottom of the sump from the first portion into the second portion where the soiled water is directed into the drain.
