just thought I'd share some pictures on here of a freebie machine I picked up a few weeks ago. In great condition and I like the styling and the spin drain. A slower spin speed than the earlier mark 1 but this one is variable. A few pics of the innards too.

Great catch! I love the Philips Slimstars. Interesting to see all the technical data. There seem to be some differences. Here's a picture of the data of my AWB119PH, a MKII. Mine takes only 2000W max. When it heats, it turns off the heat for a short moment now and then so the motor can tumble the clothes. Do other models do that too? Apparently mine was designed for use on a 10Amps circuit, which could be found in older houses sometimes.

Hi Paul
Yes it was a great find and came with the Spinarinse 3019 which is lower down the thread list - one with the white trim, and a Bosch slimline dishwasher from 1992. The machine seems to be in good working order although the drain hose has gone stiff so wish I could soften it up as I prefer these to the plastic ones. There are a couple of dents in the front from an unbalanced spin I'm assuming. Here's a picture of them both together - my HN3156 is from 1977 but the month has rubbed off. You are right about the weights and of course would love to pop up and help you get yours running again. S

Service brochure
I did find a service brochure for the AWG099PH which I think is the machine that followed this - some of the technical details seem similar although this model does not have the spin drain. I've taken a couple of pics of it as it is in PDF format.

Yes, the T12 series came after the Slimstar series.
The chassis are totally different: The Slimstar have an enamel tank and the body is fully removable so you have a perfect access for servicing. The T12 have a plastic tank and you can just remove the right plate for servicing (it's somewhat hard to replace the drain pump or the left drum bearing). The early T12 (with DC PM motor) had spin-drain but at 120rpm instead of 200rpm, the later ones (with universal motor) had a Ceset motor with tachometer for speed regulation and some cheaper models had an asynchronous motor (spin speed 400 or 500rpm). | ||
