AUTO-SENSING- Automatically stop when clothes reach desired dryness
BLOWER- circulates air by pulling dry air in and drawing hot damp air out through vents rewrite
BLOWER FAN BLADE- The fan blade blows exhaust air from the dryer.
DOOR SWITCH -: A spring-loaded switch located near the dryer door's latch or hinge allows electricity to flow to the dryer's internal components, such as the motor and heating element.
DRIVE BELT: As the motor turns, it transfers power to the belt, which rotates the drum.
DRIVE MOTOR- provides power to the belt, which causes the drum to spin
DRUM -rotating containers provide a space for clothes to tumble freely as hot air circulates around them
DRUM ROLLER- holds the drum in place as it spins
DRUM SLIDE, GLIDE, OR PAD- keeps metal drum from rubbing against metal dryer frame
DRYER THERMAL FUSE- A safety mechanism designed to halt electrical flow to specific parts of the dryer, preventing overheating and potential hazards.
ELECTRIC DRYER-uses metal heating coils and are completely powered by electricity. An electric dryer requires a 220-volt circuit
ELECTRONIC CONTROL BOARD- controls every function of a dyer's electrical circuits.
FLAME SENSOR- picks up heat from the flame and sends a signal to the control board
GAS DRYER- Gas dryers use natural gas or propane to generate heat and electricity to power the drum, fan, lights, and controls. Gas Dryer requires a 110-volt circuit
GAS VALVE COIL- opens the gas valve to allow gas to flow through the dryer
HEATING ELEMENT- a coil or wire that produces heat in electric dryers
IDLER PULLEY WHEEL- l maintains tension on the dryer belt, ensuring it Lint Screen- Catches debris before it leaves the drum
MOISTURE SENSOR -. The moisture sensor is a set of metal bars mounted inside the dryer drum. The metal bars sense moisture in the garments being tumbled and dried inside the drum.
SENSOR AND THERMISTOR- monitors the cycle temperature to dry your laundry.
THERMOSTAT- regulates the amount of heat in the dryer
TIMER- a component of a clothes dryer that controls the duration of a drying cycle.
TIMED DRY- You decide cycle times for loads, Lets you add enough time to eliminate any damp spots
