The tool reference 10040130 can be used as a help.
A5. Extractor
Extractor
The steam and vapour that is generated by the
beaters can reach the product containers and if
they become damp they form lumps in the powder.
This consequently results in the irregular extraction
of the product. To avoid this, the extractor is used
to remove the steam and vapour from the interior
of the machine. It works on 24 Vdc

Turning the handle anticlockwise gives a coarser grind and moving it clockwise gives a finer
grind. The grinder used in Vitro X1 is regulated by time. Grinder programming in function 315
(check details in programming manual)
To get the desired amount of coffee for your Service: first adjust the “grinding point” using
the handle. After set a time for the grinder in the function 315 “grinding time”. It is advised
to scale the ground coffee in each Service. Last, adjust the piston washers in the best position
(check in section A7. Coffee Group+Piston).
Turning the handle that adjusts the grinding point will have an effect on
ground coffee granulometry, but also on ground coffee Flow. Remember that
grinder is controlled by time: 3 seconds of coarse coffee will make more
grams than 3 seconds of thin coffee.
It can be said that turning right or left the grinding point handle will vary the amount of coffee
ground for your Service. In that case, the grinding time set in function 315 must be modify as
well to keep getting the desired amount of coffee for each Service.
A7. Espresso Group+Piston/Brewer
The Vitro X1 machine has the espresso group model V30. Made of
resin, it is the element that the machine uses to make the espresso
coffee.
The group has moving parts that are activated by a 220 Vac motor
that moves a crank which moves the coffee from the dosage element
to the piston. At the same time it also moves a lever that activates a
micro switch; this indicates the position of the infusion element to the
control board.

To remove from its position of anchor, the lower lever must be turned and the two upper
screws must be loosened, as indicated in the photographs. If the group was in brewing
position, to remove it, it is necessary to acces programming function 30 and raise the piston.
To put the group back on the machine, it can be in any position and not
matter that it has been turned out of the machine: Just put it in its place and fix its two
anchor levers; the engine of the group will position it correctly.

AZK 30, variable coffee brewer
The AZK 30 group is variable and automatic positioning from 7 gr to 14 gr, thanks to a 24 VDC
position control motor.
The variable group allows a more controlled and better pressed dosage because the positioning
of the piston is done by the activation of a direct current motor, controlled by a pulse counter.

coffee group. It has capacity for 60 cakes. After 60 coffee
services the display will show a message asking to empty the
deposit. If the counter want to be disabled use your laptop
and the Configurator app to modify the settings cmq file.
Tray of liquids collects all the liquid residues that the
machine generates. It has capacity for 1 litre.
Both parts can be removed with the machine lock. Pull the tray to remove both parts.
A9. Water Deposit
It is made of copolyester (Tritan TX1001) and has a capacity for
500 cc of water. It is at atmospheric pressure and temperature.
From this deposit is taken the water to elaborate the espresso
coffee and instant beverages. The water level in this tank is
controlled by a magentic switch activated by a float.

A10. Volumetric counter
Its function is to measure the quantity of water that is pumped
for the elaboration of the espresso coffee
A blade inside it spins boosted by the water flow. Two magnets
on the blades activate a terminal locate on the counter cap. The
three terminals on the cap are positive, negative (5V cc) and the
_П_ (square signal symbol). If it is measured between negative
and _П_ when water is pumped through the counter it will be
gotten the voltage difference 0V and 5V. In a digital tester it will
be shown 2.5V which indicates that the counter is working well.
A11. Water pump
E1. By-pass
E2. Non return
When an espresso coffee is elaborated, the water pressure needed is quite high to be able to
pass through the compressed ground coffee in the infusion element. This resistance the coffee
offers makes the water pressure in the boiler increase up to a pressure of 9 Kg/cm². At this
pressure the by-pass opens allowing a small amount of water to return; sufficient to prevent
the water pressure from going over the 9 Kg/cm².
The by-pass is a small hole covered with a ball that is held in place by a spring. This spring will
hold a pressure of 9 Kg/cm², but over this pressure it compresses and allows the water to
pass.
The pressure of 9 Kg/cm² is considered the ideal for elaborating espresso coffee.
When the instant beverages are elaborated, there is no resistance offered and so during there
elaboration the water pump works at lower pressures than when elaborating espresso coffee.
The pump has an non return valve that prevents the return of water from the boiler.

A12. Boiler
The boiler works under pressure and has a capacity of 700 cc. It warms up the water for the
elaboration of the products, espresso coffee or soluble products.

F3. 1100 W heating element
F4. Electrovalves
F5. Upper cover

F7. Water inlet
The boiler is made of brass and does not need any device to control the level of water as the
boiler fills automatically from the moment the machine is switched on. After this the water that
is used is replaced with water from the cold deposit so the boiler is always full.
There are three outlets; one through a 3-way EV for the elaboration of espresso coffee. This EV
has an outlet from the boiler, another goes to the infusion element, and the third that, at rest,
allows the infusion element to be at atmospheric pressure.
G1. Solenoid
G2. Valve
G3. 3rd outlet
When the machine is in the espresso coffee making process, the third is closed while the outlet
from the boiler and the inlet to the infusion element are open to each other.
H1. 3rd outlet closed
H2. To the infusion group
H3. From the boiler
When the machine finishes elaborating an espresso coffee, the EV goes to rest state and closes
the outlet from the boiler leaving the infusion element open to the third outlet. In this way the
water that did not pass through the coffee and was retained in the infusion element goes out
through the third outlet to the residue bucket.

Allows water to pass from the hydraulic network to the cold-water
tank. Works at 120/230 VAC.
It has a grid that retains solid elements from the hydraulic network, the
normal closure of the EV cuts the passage of
water to the machine. It should be checkingthat the filter or grid is not
hindered by debris.

unit provides the supply voltages for the rest of the components and managing the machine.
This board is the same of the Zen, Zintro and Vitro S5 models, but with a different firmware.
On the door and protected by a cover, there is the key board, wish has 8 direct products
selections and 4 pre-selections . The activation of these selections and pre-selections is done
by capacitive detectors; To order a product it is not necessary to press any pushbutton, just
move your finger to the desired product and the machine supplies the service.
Each product label and pre-selection is backlit by a LED, when a product is ordered from the
machine, the remaining labels are turned off, remaining illuminated only the requested one. When

a pre-selection is pressed, only the product labels affected by that pre-
selection are illuminated, the rest is turned off.
On the electronic pushbutton card, the display is connected, which is of the
alphanumeric type with two lines of 16 characters each.
The pushbutton card is tied with 4 plastic nuts and protected by a plastic
panel. The label holders are attached to the card by pressure. To access the
card, the cup container must be removed.

Elemental safety requirements:
a) Never touch any mechanisms with wet hands or feet.
b) Never connect or use the machine barefoot.
c) Never pull on the flex to unplug the machine.
d) Never leave the machine exposed to the elements: sun, rain, snow, etc.
3.2 Water connection
The machine can operate connected to the hydraulic grid or with a battery unit. For connection to
the hydraulic mains has a 3/4-inch male socket. It shall be connected to a drinking water intake
supplying a minimum flow rate of 5 liters/minute at a pressure between 0.5 and 10 kg/cm2.
The hydraulic mains connection hose is not supplied with the machine.
According to the low voltage regulation, the distance between the water intake and any electrical
plug base will have a minimum of 1 meter.
