2. DESCRIPTION OF THE MACHINES
The Soa Espresso coffee machine series have been engineered
and constructed for the brewing of espresso coffee and other hot
drinks. Any other use is intended as improper or dangerous.
The manufacturer hereby declines each and every liability
for damages whatsoever arising to persons and/or things
due to improper, wrong or unreasonable use of any one of
the machines.
The machine operator must observe all the use and maintenance
instructions in this manual, at all times. Should any doubts on
operation or anomalies arise, stop the machine, do not attempt
repairs or direct interventions on the machine and immediately
contact the service facilities accordingly.
The series of Soa Espresso coffee machines is available either
in electronically controlled dispensing versions with programmable
cup dosage, or in continuous dispensing versions (i.e. with push-
button regulation).
The dispensing group is heat set and stabilised to ensure optimi-
sed utilization of all the noble coffee components. An electronic
device warrants for optimised hot water auto-levelling in the boiler
unit. Water and steam dispensing is provided via 3 high-perfor-
mance multi-direction spouts (a 2-spout version is available on
demand) that allow for the preparation of cappuccinos and other
hot drinks.
Said technical solutions ensure that energy wastes are preven-
ted thereby safeguarding the machine from dangerous thermal
shocks.
Water as necessary is tapped in directly from the water mains
and is pressurised via a sealed or maintenance free volumetric
pump. Water heating is provided via conductive thermal exchange
in the boiler unit.
By activating the appropriate controls located on the machine’s
frontlet panel, optimally pressurised and heated water is delivered
to the dispensers.
The machine is provided with a steel structural framework, onto
whichallitsmechanicalandelectriccomponentsarexed.
The machine bodywork is in stainless steel and Baydur® to gua-
rantee optimised protection and safety combined with unique
designing.
