PURPOSE: To enable suitable washing and to contribute to the proper automation of washing by dissolving a detergent in advance before washing is started and controlling a washing process based on the change of photo-transmissibility in washing liquid after washing is started.
CONSTITUTION: An arithmetic control part 16 controls a first feeding valve 17 to be opened on a dissolving tank 21 side by a detergent dissolving part 15 and the dissolving tank 21 is communicated to a feeding hose 14 to supply the fixed amount of water. Then, a detergent inserting valve 23 is controlled to be opened and the detergent is supplied. On the other hand, the operation of a heater 25 is started and the rotation of an agitator 26 for stirring is started to dissolved the detergent. The first feeding valve 17 is controlled to be closed and a second feeding valve 18 is controlled to be opened on the side of washing tanks 2 and 3. Then, dissolving water is supplied into the washing tanks 2 and 3. After water is supplied, the drive of a pulsator 13 is started and washing is started. After washing is started, the photo-transmissibility of the washing liquid is detected by a photodetector 12 and this is defined as reference transmissibility. Based on the reduction degree of the photo-transmissibility, the ending time of the washing process is determined.
