INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE STARTING THE INSTALLATION
IMPORTANT:
To enable the installer to make
a quality installation and to
minimize installation time, the
following suggestions and tests
should be done before the
actual unit installation is started:
CAUTION: Equipment
Electrical Damage
DO NOT plug in or energize this
appliance until all Installation
Instructions are read and
followed. Damage to the
Brewer will occur if these
instructions are not followed.
CAUTION: Unstable
Equipment Hazard
It is very important for safety
and for proper operation that the
brewer is level and stable when
standing in its final operating
position. Provided adjustable,
non-skid legs must be installed
at each corner of the unit.
Failure to do so will result in
movement of the brewer which
can cause personal Injury and/
or damage to brewer.
NOTE: Water supply inlet line
must mee t cer tain minim u m
criteria to insure successful
operation of the brewer.
Bloomfield recommends 1/4"
copper tubing for installation of
less than 25 feet and 3/8" for
more than 25 feet from a 1/2"
water supply line.
UNPACKING & INITIAL INSPECTION
1. Unpack the unit. Inspect all components for completeness
and condition. Ensure that all packing materials have been
removed from the unit.
2. (See page 15) Remove the Top Cover and inspect the
internal components. Verify that all wiring and hoses are
connected and are properly seated. Verify that the Tank
Cover Assembly and Tank Cover Gasket are securely
installed. Reinstall top.
3. (See page 11) Verify that the Spray Head and Spray Head
Gasket are properly installed.
LEVELING THE UNIT
1. Verify that an adjustable leg is installed at each corner of the
brewer.
2. Set Brewer in its operating location.
3. Level the Brewer. A spirit level should be placed on the top
of the unit, at the edge, as a guide when making level
adjustments.
4. Level the unit from left to right and front to back by turning the
adjustable feet. Be sure all four feet touch the counter to
1. Brewer should be connected to a POTABLE WATER, COLD WATER line. Flush water line before connecting to brewer.
2. DO NOT use a saddle valve with a self-piercing tap for the
water line connection. Such a tap can become restricted by
waterline debris. For systems that must use a saddle tap,
shut off the main water supply and drill a 3/16” (minimum) tap
for the saddle connection, in order to insure an ample water
supply. Remember to flush the line prior to installing the
saddle.
3. The brewer must be installed on a water line with average
pressure between 20 PSI and 90 PSI. If your water pressure
exceeds 90 PSI at anytime, a pressure regulator must be
installed in the water supply line to limit the pressure to not
more than 90 PSI in order to avoid damage to filters, lines
and solenoid.
4. A water shut-off valve should be installed on the incoming
water line in a convenient location (Use a low restriction type
valve, such as a 1/4-turn ball valve, to avoid loss of water
flow thru the valve.

6. In some areas, local codes require a backflow preventer
(check valve) to be installed on the inlet water line. If a back
flow preventer is used, you must install a water hammer arrester in the incoming line, between the backflow
preventer and the brewer inlet, as far away from the brewer
as space will allow. This will relieve the excessive back
pressures that can cause faucet leaks and solenoid
malfunctions.

OPERATION
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT:
All satellite brewers are
tested and set at the
factory. If programming
adjustments are required,
refer to the Satellite Brewing System Programming
Manual (p/n/74781).
To over-ride the Brew
Wait mode, press and
hold the START key for
3 seconds when the
brewer is in Brew Wait
mode (i.e. when brew light
is flashing). The brew will
proceed immediately
regardless of water
temperature. This feature
should only be used when
testing water volume,
otherwise the brew will
proceed with the water
below the precise brew
temperature.
Note: the following
safety features have been
incorporated to prevent
multiple unattended
brews:
The brew key is
in-operative during a brew
cycle. This minimizes the
possibility of double
brewing.
When the “Brew” light is
on or flashing, repeated
pressing of the START
switch will be ignored,
(there will be a beep each
time it is pressed). A
Brew will only be activated
when the “Brew” light is
off.
1.Energizing the Brewer: When the POWER SWITCH is pressed to
ON, there will be a momentary flash of the power light. Energize
the brewer by pressing the ON/OFF key. The
brewer will start to fill the tank. With the proper
water supply the tank should be filled in about 2½
minutes. Once filled, the heating element will come
on until the proper tank temperature has been
reached Heating will take about 12 m i nu te s.
2. Brewing (Precise Temperature for Brewing™ — PTB™): In the
regular operating mode, the Satellite Brewer™
maintains the tank temperature within +/- .6ºC of
the brew temperature. Normally this will mean that
a brew will be started as soon as the START key is
pressed. However, there may be a slight delay if
the START key is pressed immediately after a brew
has been completed. If the tank temperature is
below the brew temperature, the brew will be
delayed, going into the “Brew Wait” mode, with the
brew light flashing. As soon as the correct
temperature is reached the brew will commence with the brew light on
continuously during the brew. During the brew cycle, if the BREW key
is pressed, it will be ignored. Only when the brew is complete can
another brew be started.
3. Brew Cancel: To cancel a brew in progress, press the CANCEL
KEY: two beeps will sound and the “Brew” light
will go out. Water flowing to the brew chamber
will be stopped immediately, but if there is
already water in the brew chamber, it will take a
few moments before this drips through as
coffee.
4. Normal Operation (Non Brewing): When the unit is not brewing,
the Satellite Brewer maintains the water temperature at the Precise
Temperature for Brewing™ (PTB™). The heating element will
cycle on and off automatically to maintain this temperature.
5. After Hours Mode: If no brew is detected for a pre-selected length
of time, the brewer will enter the After Hours mode. Temperature
will be allowed to drop to save energy. Pressing the START key
returns the brewer to normal operation.

correctly set, press the 3rd key, and the screen will read “Time:” with the set time on the
screen, minutes flashing. As previously use the 5th or 6th keys to adjust the minutes, and
press the 3rd key when complete. The brewer will return to the off mode. (Changing time can
also be done in the regular programming mode. Consult the Programming Manual)
C. After Hours™: Consult the Programming Manual to set the After Hours™ mode.
The factory programming has the After Hours™ mode turned OFF. The After Hours™ can be
programmed to com e on from 1 to 6 ho ur s after the last brew. When the brewer goes into
the After Hours™ mode, the water in the tank will be allowed to drop from the normal brewing
temperature and will reheat less frequently – this feature saves energy and extend component
life. While in the After Hours mode, the power light will flash continuously. When the START
switch is pressed the brewer automatically reverts back to normal operation, heating the water
to the Precise Temperature for Brewing™ (PTB™), before starting the brew. (The power light
will be on continuously and the Brew light will flash until the correct water temperature is
reached.)
9. Countdown Quality Timer™: The brewer factory programming has the Cou ntdown Quality
Timer™ turned OFF. Consult the Programming Manual to activate the Countdown Quality Timer™
feature:
10. Pulse or Pre-Infusion Volume Options: To set these features, refer to Programming
Manual, Brew Settings Menu. If a particular brew volume has utilized the pulse or pre-infusion
option, that volume will be displayed with an asterisk (*) after the volume. As an example
“Volume#2 64oz*” would indicate that the second programmed brew volume has utilized the
pulse or pre-infusion program options.
11. Keypadlock™:
Programming Manual, Machine Settings Menu. If the Keypadlock™ feature is activated,
there will be no response by the brewer when the keys are depressed (except for the beep after a

the filter that has been used.
13. Diagnostic Messages – Programmed Safety Features: When the brewer senses a problem,
it will automatically turn off all valves, flash lights, display the message “Call For Service” and
display one of the messages below. (Additionally : a service phone number may appear if it has
been programmed into the system.)
* To reset the brewer it can be re-energized (or press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds for all
faults except the Valve Fault, which must be reset by re-energizing). The brewer will try to
re-start, but if the same problem persists, the appropriate error message will appear again.
Consult the Trouble Shooting section to determine how to solve the problem.
A. “Probe/Heater Error”: Overheating Detection (1): If the heating element is on for 5 minutes
and the temperature does not change by +1°C in the five minute period, the unit will go
into the Over Temperature Mode with all lights flashing. When in this mode the brewer turns
off the heating elements, the solenoid valves are turned off; the switches disabled; (and all
lights flashing continuously). The LCD display will read “Probe/Heater Error”, followed by the
message “Call for Service”, and then the service phone number (if it has been entered into
memory). To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or re-energize the brewer.
(Possible causes of problem: high limit needs to be re-set; defective high limit, element, triac,
water level probe or control board.)
B. “Overheat Error”: Overheating Detection; If the brewer senses a temperature over the
Maximum Temperature set in the program (factory set at 208ºF or 98ºC) it will go into the over
temperature mode as above with all lights flashing, except the LCD will read “overheat error”,
and “Call for Service”. To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or re-energize the
brewer. (Possible cause of problem is a defective triac, temperature probe or related wiring
and connections.)
C. “No Water Sensed” — Time-Out —Inlet Valve: When filling for the first time, the inlet valve
will remain open for 4¼ minutes, (the screen will read “filling…”). If water is not detected at
the end of this time the brewer will shut down with the message “no water sensed”. The
valves and all elements are turned off, and the Brew and Pow er light flash alternately with the
Heat light, until the brewer is reset. To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds, or
re-energize the brewer. (Possible causes of the problem are: no incoming water; slow flow of
incoming water (i.e. less than 45 oz/minute); sensor not reading (check for placement,
connections or lime scale).
D . “No Water Sen s ed ” — Time-Ou t – Brew Valve: During the brew the inlet solenoid valve
cycles on intermittently to maintain the proper level in the tank. If the valve is open for
60 seconds without water being detected at the proper level, the brewer will go into the same
error mode as above (“no water sensed”). To reset press and hold CANCEL for 3 seconds,
or re-energize the brewer. (Possible causes of the problem are: no incoming water; slow flow
of incoming water, sensor not reading, etc.).
E. Keyswitch Locked: If a key switch is depressed for 10 seconds this error message will
occur. Lights will flash alternately and the brewer will turn off all valves and elements. Press
and hold the CANCEL key for 3 seconds to reset the brewer (or re-energize the brewer). If
the problem re-occurs this indicates a defective switch on the key pad.
F. “Valve Fault”- Faulty Valve Detection: When an electric or switching problem is detected
with either the inlet or brew valve the brewer turns off all elements and valves and displays
“valve fault…”. All of the lights will be turned on. Before re-setting the brewer the valves
must be checked to determine the problem. The brewer must be re-energized to re-set,
(pressing CANCEL for 3 seconds will not reset a valve fault).

SUGGESTIO NS FO R RE ME DI AL A CTI ON
1. Temp Probe may not be connected properly, or may be defective. CHECK &
CORRECT. To test probe, go to Test Program and view probe value. A value
of over 1 55 ind ic ates a defe cti v e pro be; a valu e of und er 15 in dicat e s a ba d
connection of the probe to the board. With an ohmmeter measure resistance of
probe. At 212ºF, resistance is approx. 2,000
temperature
2. May be boiling due to high altitude (boiling point below Brew Temp.) or Triac
has failed ON and hi-limit has interrupted power to heating element. REDUCE
BREW TEMP. CHECK TRIAC; REPLACE IF DEFECTIVE.
3. Heating element defective. CHECK ELEMENT; REPLACE IF DEFECTIVE.
4. Hi-limit thermostat may be cutting out at too low a temperature. CHEC K HI LIMIT THERMOSTAT; REPLACE I F DEFECTIVE. (Note; hi-limit will reset
itself if allowed to cool by 30ºF, making troubleshooting a challenge as the brewer
cools then functions normally.)
5. Heati n g el em e nt m a y b e e nc rusted with lime or sc a le b uil d -u p. D ELIME BREWER
AS DETAILED ON PAGE 16.
1. Brew Tem perature may be set too close to Maximum Temperature. Brew
Temperature should be at least 5ºF below Maximum Water Temperature.
LOWER BREW T EMPERATURE or R AISE MAXIMUM T EMPERATURE
(Software versions after May, 1999 enforce the 5ºF differential)
2. Triac has failed ON; element continues to heat even when controller is OFF.
CHECK TRIAC; REPLACE IF DEFECTIVE.
3. Temp Probe defective. See probe test procedure in Item #1 above. CHECK
PROBE; REPLACE IF DEFECTIVE.
1. Sleeve on water level sensor is too long, or sensor is not pushed down fully.
Sensor shou l d ext e nd b e y on d sl ee ve a m i ni m u m of ¼” t o a ma x im u m of l”.
REMOVE TANK LID, CUT SLEEVE TO PROPER LENGTH. ENSURE SENSOR
IS PUSHED DOWN ALL THE WAY.
2. Wiring to water level sensor disconnected or defective; or, sensor pulled out of
tank. CHECK & CORRECT.
3. Water level sensor may be encrusted with lime build-up. CLEAN SENSOR.
4. Water supply may be OFF. CHECK & RESTORE WATER SUPPLY.
1. Switch has been accidentally held for 10 or more seconds. RELEASE SWITCH
2. Defective keypad. PRESS & HOLD “CANCEL” FOR 3 SECONDS. Observe
brewer to determine if problem persists. (Note: available on software versions
MFW 275 Rev. 3.4 and later versions only).
1. Wiring to either inlet or outlet valve not properly connected. CHECK WIRING AND
CONNECTIONS.
2. The co ntr o ll er h as t w o swit c h es f or e ac h v al v e a n d on e or b ot h has be e n det ec t ed
as failing ON. (This prevents the brewer from operating u nless both switches ar e
working properly.) REPLACE CONTROLLER.
