La Carimali espresso machine parts

Finding the correct La Carimali spare part

La Carimali has used different brewing groups, boilers, valves, pumps and electronic controls across its machine range. A component may fit several models, while another component with a similar appearance may only be suitable for one machine version.

Before ordering, check:

• the complete machine model and version;
• the number of brewing groups;
• the production period or serial number;
• the mains voltage;
• the voltage and wattage of the component;
• the original La Carimali part number;
• the thread, connection and mounting dimensions;
• the position and function of the original component.

If no part number is visible, compare the old component carefully with the photographs, dimensions and technical information on the product page. Electrical, hydraulic and pressure-related components should never be selected solely because they look similar.

La Carimali Systema

The La Carimali Systema uses a range of mechanical, hydraulic and electrical components that may also appear on other Carimali models. Shared use does not guarantee compatibility with every version. Browse the dedicated La Carimali Systema parts category.

La Carimali Tema

Parts for the La Carimali Tema range include brewing-group components, valves, boiler parts and electronic controls. Some parts are also used on Tema Style versions, but this should always be confirmed through the listed model information and original part number. View the La Carimali Tema parts.

La Carimali Uno

The La Carimali Uno category contains parts for the brewing group, boiler, steam and water valves, pump system and electrical controls. Use the La Carimali Uno parts category and compare the component with the original part installed in the machine.

Brewing-group parts

The brewing group is exposed to heat, water pressure and mechanical wear. Regularly replaced components include portafilter gaskets, shower screens, diffusers, solenoid-valve seals, springs, jets and group-to-boiler gaskets.

Water leaking around the portafilter can be caused by a worn group gasket, but also by a damaged portafilter, an incorrect basket or contamination around the gasket seat. A slow or uneven water distribution may be related to the shower screen, diffuser, jet or solenoid valve.

For additional parts, view our categories for:

• espresso machine group gaskets;
• espresso machine shower screens;
• espresso machine portafilters;
• filter baskets.

Before ordering a portafilter, check the diameter, ear orientation, ear thickness and locking position. A portafilter that has a similar diameter is not necessarily suitable for a La Carimali brewing group.

Solenoid valves and group discharge

La Carimali machines can use solenoid valves for the brewing group, boiler filling and other water-circuit functions. Complete valves, coils, valve cores and seals must be selected according to their function and specifications.

When replacing a solenoid valve, check:

• the coil voltage;
• whether it is a two-way or three-way valve;
• the connection type;
• the flow direction;
• the orifice diameter;
• the original part number.

A brewing group that does not discharge correctly may have a blocked valve or discharge pipe rather than a defective coil. Browse the category of solenoid valves for espresso machines for complete valves and related components.

Pumps and the water circuit

Depending on the machine, the water system can include a rotary pump, pump motor, flowmeter, non-return valve, expansion valve, level probe and various pipes and fittings.

A machine that does not fill or build pressure does not automatically require a new pump. The cause may also be a closed water supply, blocked filter, defective inlet valve, level-control problem, pump capacitor or incorrect pump adjustment.

When selecting a replacement pump or motor, check the rotation direction, shaft connection, flow capacity, voltage, frequency and mounting arrangement. View our range of espresso machine pumps and pump components.

Boiler and heating elements

La Carimali machines have been produced with different boiler sizes, heating-element powers and electrical configurations. The machine model or number of groups alone may not be sufficient to identify the correct heating element.

Check:

• the machine voltage;
• the heating-element wattage;
• the flange dimensions;
• the immersed length;
• the number and position of the electrical terminals;
• the original La Carimali part number.

If the boiler does not heat, the heating element is not necessarily defective. The pressure switch, safety thermostat, level control, contactor, wiring or power supply can also interrupt the heating circuit.

Browse our espresso machine heating elements and check whether a separate flange gasket is required during installation.

Steam and water valves

Steam and hot-water valves contain wear parts such as valve shafts, seals, O-rings, springs, bushes, knobs and complete valve bodies. Leakage from a closed valve is often related to a worn valve seal or seat. Difficult operation can be caused by contamination, scale, a damaged shaft or incorrect assembly.

Several Carimali models may use similar valve bodies or internal parts, but their shafts, connections and knobs can still differ. Compare the original part number, shaft length, thread and seal dimensions before ordering.

Additional components can be found in our category of steam valves and steam-valve parts.

Electrical controls and dosing units

Professional La Carimali machines may use dosing units, level regulators, contactors, switches, touch panels, displays and electronic control boards. These components are usually specific to the machine version, voltage and number of brewing groups.

A control unit with the same housing is not necessarily interchangeable. Check the complete code printed on the original unit, the supply voltage, connector layout and machine configuration.

For additional electronic components, view our category of espresso machine dosing devices.

Boiler filling and water-level control

The automatic boiler-filling system can include a level probe, level regulator, inlet solenoid valve and water-supply components. If the boiler does not fill, overfills or fills intermittently, each part of this circuit should be checked before replacing the electronic controller.

Scale or contamination on the level probe can affect detection. Other possible causes include a blocked inlet, damaged valve coil, loose electrical connection or defective level regulator.

Original and compatible La Carimali parts

This category contains both original La Carimali components and compatible replacement parts from other manufacturers. An original component is supplied according to La Carimali specifications. A compatible part is intended as an alternative to one or more stated original part numbers.

Compatible does not mean that a component fits every La Carimali machine. The listed model compatibility, part number, voltage, dimensions and technical design remain decisive.

Traditional and fully automatic Carimali machines

La Carimali has produced both traditional espresso machines and fully automatic coffee systems. Components used in a traditional machine are not automatically suitable for a fully automatic model, even when they are made by the same component manufacturer.

Only use a part for an automatic machine when the product page explicitly lists the model or corresponding original part number. The model categories on this page primarily help identify parts for the listed La Carimali machine ranges.
