Astoria Argenta - Hydraulika

Which type of hydraulic systems you have on your Astoria Argenta depends on which model version you have and the amount of brewing groups. Seen there are differences between the SAE/SME and the AEP/AEAP – SMSA/SMAT models of the Astoria. To say it in normal language, the SAE/SME models are the volumetric models and the AEP/AEAP – SMSA/SMAT models are the non volumetric espresso machines.

So with the volumetric models you will find a flowmeter for every brewing group, unlike with the non volumetric espresso machines. Besides that most components are the same, such as filters, over pressure valves, pressure switches, solenoid water inlet valve, water dispensing valve, tubing and a water drain cup.
