Patent ID: 7843357

Claim:
A controller suitable for identifying an abnormal operational condition in a bathing system, the bathing system including a set of bathing unit components, each bathing unit component being adapted for acquiring an actuated state and a non-actuated state, the bathing unit components drawing an electrical current when in the actuated state, said controller comprising: a. a memory unit for storing information related to electrical currents drawn by the bathing system under normal operating conditions, at least a portion of said information conveying measurements of electrical currents drawn by respective bathing unit components when in the actuated state; b. a processing unit in communication with said memory unit, said processing unit being adapted for: i. modifying the information related to electrical currents drawn by the bathing system under normal operating conditions stored in said memory unit; ii. detecting an abnormal operational condition associated with the bathing system at least in part on the basis of the information stored on the memory unit as modified; c. a plurality of actuators associated to respective bathing unit components, said processing unit being operative for controlling said plurality of actuators to cause the bathing unit components in said set of bathing unit components to acquire either one of the actuated state or the non-actuated state.
