motor fan no separate fan-just fins cast into the aluminum rotor end rings of the motor to circulate cooling air.My Bosch dishwasher has wet rotor BLDC motor with no external moving parts.A craptastic 2019 Frigidaire dishwasher I junked had a little brushed dc motor with a small radial fan on the end. | ||

to cfz2882 Which dishwashers have pumps that still use them? So far, I'm starting to hear less cooling fan noise on the dishwashers of today. I am referring to the ones with the fins cast into the motor rotor. | ||

whirlpool dishwasher The previous whirlpool dishwasher I had used a fan in the back of the motor which had a steady hum. It was the point voyager design. | ||

I’ve been wondering the same thing. How is it possible to make them so incredibly quiet? Our 2019 Maytag is very quiet, but it does sound like it has a fan on it when the lower floor panel is off. Infact the fan is louder than the motor itself. Talking about the point voyager updated wash system that was exclusive to all Maytag models for 2015-2019 which washed all racks at once and did not have an alternating system. Same with other manufacturers, very quiet motors. How do they reduce the noise so much? It’s incredible work however I thought the original Point Voyager whirlpools were a perfect decibel, not too loud but not so quiet to where you can’t hear what it’s up to and where it is in the cycle. It’s always fascinated me over the years and Bosch was truly one of the first ahead of the game for quieter dishwashers, then everyone followed the trend in the late 2000s.

to maytaga806 Believe me, I've been intrigued by it as well. My GE/Kenmore dishwasher had a cooling fan you could hear while running. To me, it made the dishwasher sound cool. It's interesting. | ||

GE's new dishwasher pumps I've could've sworn I've heard a cooling fan from the main wash pump on GE dishwashers. | ||

pump layout Does anybody make dishwasher pumps that are vertical or horizontal? What about Bosch? It seems to me that most are horizontal. Do they still make vertical pumps anymore? | ||

don't think any have integral pump/drain motors anymore. Some were side mount. The motors are all smaller, and seperate, thus quieter, not always more durable. They don't mount to the tub, but have rubber plenums, so it doesn't matter which direction they face. | ||
