CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 1 2 3 4 5 Outlet Top Filter Compressed Coffee Water Nozzle Socket Bottom Filter Figure 4-5: Brew Unit Components 24
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information Refer to Figure 4-6 – Brew Unit, Showing Compressed Coffee “Puck”. 7. As the drive begin to move back toward the starting (home) position the coffee chamber moves upward and releases the used compressed coffee grounds (puck). Pos. 1. 8. The drive continues and returns the brew unit to its starting (home) position.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.7 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. 4.8 Waste Unit Present Switch A reed switch is mounted to the bottom of the housing – as shown in the Figure 4-7.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 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. 1 Magnet for Present Switch Actuation Figure 4-8: Waste Unit 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.9 Water Tank Refer to Figure 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.10 Water Level Switch The Water Level Switch is located within the housing (as shown in Figure 4-10, Item 1). Figure 4-10: Water Level Switch The actuating magnet for the Water Level Switch is located in the Water Tank as shown below (Figure 4-11, Item 1).
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information When the water tank is installed, and contains at least 30-33 ounces of water; the Water Level Switch is activated and its contacts close. 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information Refer to Figure 4-12 – 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.12 Grinder – Overload Protection If the grinder becomes blocked, a slip coupling interrupts the drive between the motor and the grinder.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information Refer to Figure 4-13 – Components of the Grinder Overload Protection. 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.13 Ground Coffee Dispensing 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Dispenser Lever Switch – Dispensing (1S13) Catch – Switch – Dispensing Catch – Coil – Dispensing Coil – Dispensing (1L1) Spring Actuator Bolt Dispenser Flap Wiper Figure 4-15: Coffee Dispensing Components By adjusting the dispenser lever (Figure 4-15, Item 1), the position of the switch slide, in the dispenser container is modified.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 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. Figure 4-16: Dispensing Lever 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.15 Brew Unit Drives Refer to Figure 4-17 – Components of the Brew Unit Drive Assembly, Water Connection and Present Switch. 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information Refer to Figure 4-18 – Brew Unit Drive Assembly. The drive motor (Item 1) is powered by the electronic and turns both the worm gear (Item 3) and the single-stage step-down gear (Item 4). The drive shaft cog gear (Item 5) has two switch actuators for the brew position switch (Item 6) and the home position switch (Item 7). Both switches are monitored by the electronic to determine the position of the brew unit.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.16 Water Pump The pump is self-priming and can develop a pressure of up to approx. 16 bar. For espresso preparation a pressure of approx. 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.19 Flow Through Heaters The Coffee Flow Through Heater (Figure 4-19 – Hot Water / Coffee Heater) has a large heater element; and a small heater element. The Steam Flow Heater has only one heater element (refer to figure 4-20 – Steam Heater) Each Flow Through Heater has a Positive Thermal Coefficient (PTC) Temperature Sensor that provides a signal to the electronic unit for temperature control.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information As a final measure each heating circuit uses a temperature safety fuse (Figure 4-20 – 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.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.20.1 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). 4.20.2 Water Path - Coffee The water is then pumped under pressure through the Flowmeter, and through the Coffee Flow Through Heater.
CVA615 Coffee System Technical Information 4.21 Water Valve The Water Valve is attached to the output of the Coffee / Hot Water Flow Through Heater. The valve is in a normally closed position. When the Brew Unit is driven into the brew position the valve mechanically opens and water 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.
