For IN WARRANTY repairs is mandatory to use the single components (not the assembly) avail-
able in the exploded views of the coffee machines or of the specific components. If you find the
information “SEE THE EXPLODED VIEW E........” in the assembly description field, it means that
the single components of the assembly are available in the other pages of the exploded view. It’s
possible to use the assembly only if there is a specific Symptom Cure that include this possibility or
when the single components are not available for the order.

2.2. Specification for the measurement of the coffee products temperature.
The temperature is influenced by the flow from the dispenser and stratification of temperatures in the
glass. In order to consider these phenomena and to introduce measures that allow comparisons in con-
trolled conditions, below guidelines must be followed:
Conditions:
a) Water temperature in tank: 23°C (+/-2°C).
b) It must be used a plastic cup (see picture N°1).
c) It must be used a thermocouple thermometer (e.g. type K - see picture N°2).
d) The coffee machine is tested without any change of parameters or calibrations, which may
affect the temperature of products, so the measurement of temperature must be done with
machine in default factory setting.
Procedure:
1. The temperature must be measured in the cup, immediately after dispensing. Cup has to be
placed on a non-metal surface using a thermocouple thermometer.
2. The temperature in the cup is measured by immersing the probe of the thermometer up to
touch the bottom.The probe then must be moved in a circular motion for 5/6 rotations. At the
of the rotations, stop in the center of the cup.
3. The highest temperature measured during the rotations is the value we are searching for, and
that must be reported;
4. Test measurement: from end of dispensing to the end of rotations must be completed within 12
seconds.
Limits of acceptability
The acceptance limits are divided by features and products and are the following:
Espresso Coffee Italy Q.ty 25/40 gr.
Temperature of 1st product 69°C ≤ 85°C
Temperature of 2nd product 72°C ≤ 85°C
Coffee Q.ty 70/120 gr.
Temperature of 1st product 69°C ≤ 85°C
Temperature of 2nd product 72°C ≤ 85°C
