5 -GENERAL TECHNICAL

Espresso Italia PTY LTD www.espressoitalia.com.au Freecall 1300 660 976

DESCRIPTION

5.1 Permitted use

English

5.3 Basic operating concepts

During normal functioning, the vending machine is in standby. By introducing the necessary amount, according to the preset price, and pressing the key relating to the desired beverage, a beverage dispensing cycle is activated. It can be divided in different processes:

The vending machine is to be used exclusively for the dispensing of beverages, prepared by mixing foodstuffs with water (by brewing for coffee). For this purpose, use products that the manufacturer has declared suitable for the automatic distribution in open containers. Beverages are brewed in appropriate plastic cups automatically dispensed by the machine. The sugar stirrer is automatically dispensed. The beverages shall be drunk immediately and under no circumstances shall they be kept for subsequent consumption.

5.2 Models

The following terminology is used so as to distinguish the various models of automatic vending machines:

SAECO GROUP 700N E PLUS : version with plastic brew group and 5 instant products, equipped with two boilers and 64 mm grinders.

CUP DISPENSING

• This is the first operation that the vending

machine activates - except for 'without cup' dispensing selection.

• The motor inside the cup dispenser moves

the scrolls in order to separate and let the cup fall into the special support fork inside the dispensing outlet.

SAECO GROUP 700N M PLUS : version with plastic brew group and 5 instant products, equipped with one boiler and 64 mm grinders.

SAECO GROUP 700N E : version with plastic brew group and 5 instant products, equipped with two boilers and 48 mm grinders.

SAECO GROUP 700N M : version with plastic brew group and 5 instant products, equipped with one boiler and 48 mm grinders.

Warning

This manual refers to the top-of-the-range model: it is therefore possible to find descriptions or explanations not relating to the machine you have.

English

Espresso Italia PTY LTD www.espressoitalia.com.au Freecall 1300 660 976

SUGAR AND STIRRER DISPENSING

Where provided for and required, a preset maximum dose of sugar is dispensed, with the possibility to stop the machine when the required dose has been reached.

Dispensing is divided in the following phases:

• the gearmotor activates the sugar container

screw, dispensing the desired quantity of product into the conveyor tube.

• the dragging motor of the channel is engaged

and conveys the sugar into the cup.

• the solenoid is activated, and the stirrer is

directly dispensed into the cup through a special channel (fig.9).

INSTANT BEVERAGES

This process takes place only after the dispensing of the cup, the sugar and the stirrer. According to the beverage selected and the model of the vending machine - single or double boiler - the following processes are enabled for the beverage brewing.

• If fitted, the motor mixer is engaged.

• In case of machines with espresso coffee single boiler the solenoid valve for instant products (ref. '1' fig.7) is installed on the coffee boiler and when engaged it conveys the programmed quantity of water into the mixer. Then, the pump (ref. '2' fig. 7) is engaged and, controlled by a special electronic device (volumetric counter ref. '3' fig. 7), it dispenses the programmed quantity of water.

fig. 7

• In case of machines with a double boiler, the solenoid valve for instant products (ref. '1' fig.

8), located on a non-pressurized boiler (ref. '2' fig. 8), is engaged by means of a timer in order to fill the cup with the programmed quantity of water. In this case, the water outflows by falling.

fig. 8

• The gearmotor of instant products actuates the screw so that the latter dispenses the preset quantity of product inside the mixer for some versions several products can be dispensed in the same mixer -).

• Once the preset quantity of water and powder

is dispensed, the mixer is disconnected.

ESPRESSO COFFEE

This process takes place only after the dispensing of the cup, the sugar and the stirrer.

• the grinder (ref. '1' fig.9) is engaged and runs until the ground coffee dose set by the dosing unit (ref '2' fig.9) is reached.

fig.9

• the electromagnet of the dosing unit (ref. '3' fig.9) controls the door opening and the subsequent falling of the coffee into the brewing cup.

• controlled by the appropriate electronic device (volumetric counter ref. '2' fig.11), the pump dispenses the preset quantity of water sucked from the coffee boiler (ref. ‘1’ fig.11).

• the brew group gearmotor goes back to its

rest position while the used coffee tablet is ejected.

According to the type of program set (see programming menu), the above procedure for the grinder and dosing unit engagement can take place in reverse.

fig.17

Open the door of the vending machine and remove the adhesive tape from the components.

6.4 Water mains connection

Espresso Italia PTY LTD www.espressoitalia.com.au Freecall 1300 660 976

Before connecting the vending machine to the water mains, make sure the water :

- is drinking - if possible by means of test laboratory certification

English

- connect the tap to the vending machine, using a copper or nylon pipe, suitable for foodstuffs and for the purpose of bearing the water supply pressure. Should a flexible hose be used, it is necessary to assemble the reinforcement bearing inside, supplied with the machine.

- has a pressure ranging between 1.5 bars and 8 bars, otherwise use a pump or a water pressure reducer accordingly

- if not already fitted, install a tap in an accessible position, so as to separate the equipment from the water mains, should it be necessary (fig. 19).

fig.19

- the connection provided for is a 3/8 gas-type fitting.

6.5 Electric Mains connection

The vending machine is designed to operate with single phase voltage at 230 Volts and is protected by 8A rapid fuses.

We suggest checking the following:

- lthe mains voltage of 230 V shall not exceed

a ± 6% fluctuation

- the power supply must be suitable to the

machine

- a diversified protection system shall be

connected

The machine shall be earthed in observance with operating safety rules in force.

For this reason, verify the system earth wire connection to ascertain that it is efficient and in compliance with national and European electric safety standards.

- let some water flow out of the tap so that to eliminate possible traces of impurities and dirt (fig.20).

fig.20

If necessary, have the system inspected by qualified personnel

- The vending machine is provided with a power cord (fig.21)
