GE Washing Machine Results

RESULT HIGHLIGHTS CONTINUED – PAGE 2 OF 11

• Figure 2 demonstrates the higher spin speeds achievable using the XYO balancer.
• The spin basket speed increased from 1051 RPM to 1080 RPM.
• Higher spin speeds will enable greater water extraction with shorter spin cycles.
• This will not only improve the energy efficiency of the washing machine, but will contribute significantly to shorter drying times.

• Figure 3 compares the steady-state power usage during the spin cycle.
• The XYO balancer reduced the power usage from 857 Watts to 489 Watts.
• There is a 43% reduction in energy consumption that will improve the washing machine’s energy rating.
• It also means the XYO balancer enables water extraction at a lower cost.
