Product Description

The General Electric WH12X27187 Washer Speed Sensor tracks the drum spins, and the control system follows the rotation to allow it to control the speed of spin and motor activity. It senses rotational movement using electronic feedback and sends the information to the onboard control unit. It is used near the drive motor, where it is working near the moving drum components. Its operation supports balanced rotation and proper sequence of cycles, which assist the washer in modifying the speed levels of the machine.
