Electric Supply; Connections - Rancilio Epoca E1 Use And Maintenance

6.1.2. Electric supply

The machine is supplied ready for connection
according to the required electrical specifi-
cations.
Before connecting the machine ensure that the plate
details (fig. 1) comply with those of the electric distri-
bution network.
The electrical connection cable must be directly
connected to the connection provided according to
current legislation. Ensure that the earthing system
is efficient and in compliance with current legal re-
quirements.
The earthing system and the lightening protection
system must be realized in accordance with the
provisions of current legislation.
For the supply network use a cable in compliance with
standards with protective conductor (earthing wire).
For single phase power supply use a cable with 3
conductors (phase + neutral + earth).
In both cases it is necessary to provide an automatic
differential switch (Fig. 6) at the start of the power
cable, complete with magnetic release elements in
accordance with the identification plate details (Fig.
1). The contacts must have an opening of equal or
over 3 mm and with dispersed current protection of
30 mA.
Remember that each machine must be fitted with its
own safety elements.
WARNING:
Should the power supply cable be damaged
it is to be replaced by the manufacturer or by
its technical assistance service or by person
with equivalent qualification, in order to pre-
vent any risks.

6.2. Connections

● Place the machine on the horizontal sur-
face previously prepared.
Before connecting, thoroughly wash the mains water
pipes:
● Leave the water supply taps running at full pres-
sure for several minutes.
● Connect to the mains water supply.
● Connect the machine to the socket.
Thoroughly wash all the water pipes of the machi-
ne:
● Leave the water supply taps running at full pres-
sure.
● Switch on main switch 1: wait until the boiler fills
up to the level set.
● Switch on main switch 2 to begin heating the water
in the boiler.
● Operate each unit in order to allow the water to
escape for about one minute; repeat the operation
twice.
● Deliver steam from the steam jets for about one
minute.
● Deliver hot water for about one minute; repeat the
operation twice.
● Switch off switches 1 and 2.
● Empty the water from the boiler: see point 10.3
IMPORTANT
Should the machine not deliver water for over
24 hours, wash the internal components be-
fore beginning work, repeating the operations
as described above
ATTENTION
Please be informed that in order to avoid
pressure falls during the boiler filling we fitted
into the filling solenoid valve a restription Ø
1.25 mm.
If, during the installation, the machino get in
security mode (the on/off selection on the
touch pad will flash) reset the machine using
the main switch.
