Abstract: A washing appliance comprising a tub to house items to be washed; a circulation pump (130) to circulate a washing fluid in the tub; a circulation pump motor to drive the circulation pump; a drain pump; a detection unit configured to monitor at least one electromechanical parameter of the circulation pump motor, and to detect, based on the monitored at least one electromechanical parameter, a starvation event indicating that air is drawn out by the circulation pump or a saturation event indicating that no air is drawn out by the circulation pump: a control unit configured to determine a first starvation event and a second starvation event occurred after the first starvation event, wherein the first starvation event is determined when a starvation event is detected after a first number of consecutive saturation events (N1) is counted, or after a first time interval (?T1) has elapsed during which no starvation event is detected, and wherein the second starvation event is determined when a starvation event is det

Abstract: A washing appliance is provided, including a tub configured to house items to be washed; an inlet valve configured to be operated in an open condition for causing washing fluid to be loaded into the tub and in a closed condition for preventing washing fluid to be fed to the appliance; a circulation pump configured to circulate the washing fluid in the tub during a washing cycle; a control unit configured to determine an operative state of the circulation pump between a saturation state indicative that sufficient washing fluid is present in the tub to prevent air from being drawn out by the circulation pump, and a starvation state indicative that insufficient washing fluid is present in the tub to prevent air from being drawn out by the circulation pump.

Abstract: A washing appliance is provided, including: a tub configured to house items to be washed; an inlet valve operable to be selectively switched between an open condition for causing washing fluid to be loaded into the tub and a closed condition for preventing washing fluid be fed to the appliance; a circulation pump configured to circulate the washing fluid in the tub during a washing cycle; a control unit configured to determine an operative state of the circulation pump between a saturation state indicative that sufficient washing fluid is present in the tub to prevent air from being drawn out by the circulation pump, and a starvation state indicative that insufficient washing fluid is present in the tub to prevent air from being drawn out by the circulation pump.
