Failure monitoring device of a water feed system of an electrical household appliance

摘要

Device for the failure monitoring of a water feed system (2) of an electrical household appliance (4), which operates in accordance with a washing programme, which includes at least one feed phase in which a water flow is fed to the electrical household appliance (4) by means of opening a shut-off device (10), and in which at least one shut-off phase is present in which the shut-off device (10) is closed. The monitoring device (1) includes a reservoir (24) which can be connected to the feed system (2) during the shut-off phases and is provided with a level signalling system (33) which generates a signal which is indicative of the faulty functioning of the shut-off device (10) when the water level, contained in the reservoir, exceeds a threshold value. <IMAGE>
