Description of Function
Door Switch
The door switch, removes power to the appliance when the door is opened
Overflow (reed) Switch
The overflow switch is in the lower section of the appliance case. The float with magnet is located in the drip tray. Should a leak develop, water flows into the drip tray. The ftoat with magnet then rises and activates the overflow reed switch which in turn causes the electronic control to switch the unit off.
Brew Unit - Cleaning and Care
The Brew Unit is a mechanically operated component that is subjected to high forces. After a long period of use. the Brew Unit may become dogged. To ensure correct operation of the Brew Unit, it is essential to dean it regularly and apply silicone grease to the moving parts. Refer to section "4 - Maintenance' for further information and procedures.
Brew Unit Removal from the Appliance
The brew unit must be in the home position (see figure 4-2) before it can be removed from the appliance.
Connection of Brew Unit to Drive Mechanism
When the Brew Unit is placed into in the appliance, it locks into position. The locking mechanism Switch Lug (Item 3). activates the Brew Unit Switch (Item 4). The Drive Shaft (Item 6) engages with the Brew Unit Drive Shaft Socket (Item 1). The Nozzle (Item 5). supplies the Brew Unit with hot water under pressure.
When the Brew Unit is in the Brewing position, the socket (Item 2 ). allows hot water to pass through the coffee.
4.6 Brewing Procedure
1. The grinder fills the dispenser housing until full (as determined by the dispenser switch).
2. The grinder is then switched off.
3. The dispenser flap opens twice (two clicks) via the dispenser solenoid assembly.
4. The ground coffee then falls into the brew unit via the funnel.
5. The drive tilts the percolator chamber and raises it to the brewing position. The ground coffee ts compressed between the Top Filter (Item 2) and Bottom Filter (Item 5).
6. Water then flows through the Water Nozzle Socket. (Item 4). The pump forces the hot water through the Brew Unit and the compressed grounds (Pos 3). Coffee exits the top of Brew Unit via the Outlet (Item 1).
7. As the drive begin lo move back toward the starling, home, position the coffee chamber moves upward and releases the used compressed coffee grounds, puck, Position. 1.
8. The drive continues and returns the brew unit to its starting, or home, position.
Grounds Container
After coffee has been prepared, the coffee grounds compressed puck falls into the waste container. The electronic monitors the number of the compressed pucks. After a specific amount is reached, the message 'Empty waste unit" is displayed.
Waste Unit Present Switch
A reed switch is mounted to the bottom of the housing - as shown in the figure.
The actuating magnet (Figure 4-8. Item 1) for the Waste Unit switch is fitted in the bottom edge of the container. The electronic monitors whether the waste unit is installed.
When the appliance is placed into the Service Mode, the top line of the display shows the switches that have been activated. A'5" is displayed when the Waste Unit is installed and the switch is actuated. For further information refer to section 6 - Service Mode.
4.9 Water Tank
The Water Tank holds the water required for the brewing of the coffee, hot water and steam. When the Water Tank is installed, the sealing ring is pressed upwards allowing water to flow out.
When the tank is removed from the unit, the spring closes the sealing ring to ensure water cannot flow from the tank when it is out of the appliance for filling, etcetera ...
Water Level Switch
The Water Level Switch is located within the housing, as shown in figure 4-10. Item 1.
The actuating magnet for the Water Level Switch is located in the Water Tank as shown below
When the water tank ts installed, and contains at least 30-33 ounces of water; the Water Level Switch is activated and its contacts dose.
If the water quantity drops below the minimum quantity, the water level switch is no longer activated and the contacts open.
After the switch opens, the water passing through the water pump is registered via the flowmeter and recorded by the electronic unit as up to 27 ounces of water is still available.
After the 27 ounces is calculated as being used, the display shows Till water tank". To prevent the water pump from running dry. about 3-7 ounces of water remains in the tank.
If the appliance is placed into the service mode the top line of the display shows the switches that have been activated. A *7* is displayed when the water tank is installed and filled with water. Refer to section 6 - Service Mode for further information.
Grinder Assembly
The grinding grade depends on the gap between the Grinding Cone and the Grinding Ring. The gap is set via an adjustment Lever fitted to the adjustment ring. The smaller the gap. the finer the coffee grind.
Warning!
To avoid damage to the grinder the grinder should only be adjusted in small steps.
Grinder: Overload Protection
If the grinder becomes blocked, a slip coupling interrupts the drive between the motor and the grinder.
The Grinder Motor (Item 1) drives the mounting (Item 3) via the carriers (Item 2). The rotary force is then transferred via the balls. (Item 5) to the grinder cone (Item 6).
Should the Grinder Cone become blocked the balls are pressed into the mounting, as shown below in figure C. The drive force is interrupted: and the worm gear continues to operate via the mounting.
By adjusting the dispenser lever (figure 4-15. Item 1). the position of the switch slide, in the dispenser container is modified. This changes the volume of the dispenser container and hence the quantity of ground coffee that it can hold before it is full. Each slider setting alters the coffee quantity by approx. 0.5 grams.
The grinder fills the dispenser container with ground coffee. When the dispenser container is full, the dispensing switch is actuated and the grinder motor is switched off.
To fill the brew unit - the dispensing solenoid is energized twice and the dispenser flap opens twice. The ground coffee drops from the dispenser container into the brew unit.
If the dispenser container is not filled because, there are no coffee beans in the bean holder: the dispenser switch is not activated. The display then shows "Fil coffee beans*.
Dispenser Switch
The service mode can be used to check whether the dispenser switch is activated. With the appliance in the service mode, the top line of the display shows the switches that have been activated.
The "3" indicates that the dispenser container is full / switch is actuated. Refer to section 6 - Service Mode for further information.
When the brew unit is placed in the appliance, it locks into position The locking mechanism switch lug (Item 3) activates the brew unit present switch (Item 4). The drive shaft. (Item 6) engages with the drive shaft socket.
The drive motor (1) is powered by Ihe electronic and turns both the worm gear (3) and the single-stage step-down gear (4). The drive shaft cog gear (5) has two switch actuators for the brew position switch (6) and the home position switch (7). Both switches are monitored by the electronic to determine the position of the brew unit.
Water Pump
The pump is self-priming and can develop a pressure of up to approximately 16 bar. For espresso preparation a pressure of approximately. 8 bar is required so that the water can be forced through the compressed ground coffee. A further increase in pressure does not improve beverage quality.
The pump is fitted with a safety valve which opens at 16 bar system pressure. If pressure is too high, water is passed from the safety valve via a hose
The pump is connected in series with a temperature limiter. The temperature limiter interrupts the power to the pump should a high temperature develop.
Flow Motor
All water taken from the water container flows through the flow meter. The flow meter passes signals to the electronic unit proportional to the quantity of water passing through it
The electronic unit then establishes the quantity of water that has flowed and stores the figure. Appro*. 300 pulses from the flow meter indicate a flow of 3 ounces of water.
The electronic unit controls the required water quantity for beverage preparation and ensures that it remains constant. The service mode can be used to check the proper operation of the flow meter. See section 6 - Service Mode for further information.
Heaters
Flow Through Heaters
The Coffee Flow Through Healer (figure 4-19) has a large healer element; and a small healer element. The Steam Flow Heater has only one heater element (refer to figure 4-20)
Each Flow Through Heater has a Positive Thermal Coefficient (PTC) Temperature Sensor that provides a signal to the electronic unit for temperature control. In addition, a Thermostat is connected in series with the heater element. Should the temperature become too high, the Thermostat interrupts the power to the heater element
As a final measure each heating circuit uses a temperature safety fuse (Figure 20 - Item 3). In the event the temperature became too high due to a fault, this fuse blows and cuts the power being supplied to the heater element. Should this fuse blow, the cause must be located and resolved before the fuse is replaced.
Water Intake
The Pump takes in water from the water tank. (The Pump is fitted with a safety valve which opens at approx. 16 bar (232 psi) system pressure. If the pressure is too high and the safety valve opens, water is drained off via a hose to the drip tray).
Water Path - Coffee
The water is then pumped under pressure through the Flowmeter, and through the Coffee Flow Through Heater. The water is then passed through the Water Valve, into the Brew Unit.
Water Path - Hot water
The Pump moves water under pressure through the Flowmeter, and through the Coffee Flow Through Heater. The water is then passed via the Hot Water Valve to the Hot Water Outlet.
Water Path - Steam
The pump moves water under pressure via the Flowmeter and through the Coffee Flow Through Heater. When the user selects steam: the Electronic energizes the Steam Valve. Water continues flowing through the Steam Flow Through Heater. Steam is then dispensed from the frothing nozzle.
Water Valve
The Water Valve is attached to the output to the Coffee Hot Water Flow Through Heater. The valve is m a normally closed position.
When the Brew Unit is driven into the brew position the valve mechanically opens and voter is supplied to the Brew Unit. This connection must be air / water tight to prevent air from entering the water path, and / or leakage from the occurring.
The two O-rings that form the seal to the brew unit can be accessed from the front / inside area of the appliance - once the brew unit removed. To access the upper seal, the heater must be removed from the appliance. The Water Valve can be disassembled for service; parts can be replaced individually.
