2.8.9 DISPENSING group
In this system, the dispensing group (1) is heated by a ther-
mosiphonic circuit (2) connected to the heat exchanger (3).
The same water is used for the coffee dispensing, thus ensur-
ing the same temperature for all coffee servings:
• The solenoid valve and the pump are activated in order to
send cold water to the exchanger (3) through the injector
(4).
• The heating unit water is carried from the exchanger (3)
to the group (4) for dispensing.
• the pump allows the increase of the pressure of the water
owupto8-9barfordispensing.
The injector (4)andowreducer(5) are important compo-
nents for the dispensing group’s operation.
To increase the coffee extraction temperature, remove the
owreducer(5) or replace it with one that has a bigger di-
ameter. To decrease the temperature, replace it with one that
has a smaller diameter.

2.8.10 Safety thermostat
The thermostat prevents any damage occurring to the elec-
trical heating element if there is no water in the heating unit.
The thermostat bulb (7) is located inside a sheath (8) in the
middle of the heating elements. The thermostat contacts (9)
are connected to the electric heating element (10). If the

heating unit with water, the temperature of the heating el-
ement increases dramatically. At this point, the thermostat
cuts the power supply to the heating element in order to pre-
vent damage occurring.

To reset the thermostat, press the centre button
(11). However, before starting the machine up
again, identify what prevented the water from
being fed into the heating unit.
2.8.11 Motor pump
This component feeds the machine
by increasing the water pressure to
0.8-0.9 MPa (8-9 bar) in order to dis-
pense coffee and automatically ll
the heating unit.
2.8.12 Electronic control unit
The electronic control unit is installed on the EVD versions.
Its purpose is to electronically control the cof-
fee dose via the water owing through the
dosing device and to check that the heating
