Base kit for water mains
SKU: T1101Connect your espresso machine with vibration pump to the water supply without the risk of leaks? We have made a kit that allows you to easily connect the machine to the water supply, but with a solenoid valve between the pump and the tap so that there is not always water pressure on the vibration pump.
The solenoid valve can easily be closed parallel to the pump with the supplied wires, so that the valve only opens when water is actually needed. The supplied reinforced hose is 160 cm long and has 1/8" bsp F connection.
For machines with a level detection in the water reservoir, this must be connected to the mass of the frame so that the machine always detects that there is water. Machines with a vibration pump are equipped with an OPV (adjustable pressure relief valve) which can be put in pressure but it is best to connect an extra piece of silicone hose to the OPV and to bring the excess water to a drain. The water tank will otherwise be full quickly.
Tip: mount a Brita filter set so that you no longer have to descale the machine, you can use a fitting from 1/8 to 3/8 for this.
