Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2016203442A1] The integrated component for supplying and treating water for a dishwashing machine comprises a monolithic body (10) of plastics material, within which an inlet conduit (16) for water, a chamber (20) containing substances with water-softening properties, into which the inlet conduit (16) leads, a salt-containing reservoir (26) arranged in the lowermost portion of the body (10) and having a filler tube (28) for loading the salt, a compartment (30) for blowing out vapours having an inlet opening (32) and an outlet opening (34), an outlet conduit (22) of water from the chamber (20), a conduit (36) for supplying water to the reservoir (26) in order to produce therein a regenerating brine, and a conduit (38) connecting the reservoir (26) to the chamber (20) are defined. The component further comprises a valve (41) situated at a point wherein the conduit (36) branches off from the inlet conduit (16), the valve (41) being able to assume a first operating configuration in which it prevents the flow along the conduit (36), while it allows the flow along the inlet conduit (16), so that all the water is directed directly into the chamber (20), and a second operating configuration in which it allows the flow along the conduit (36).
