Pumps, Valves & Tubes

Pumps, Valves and Hydraulic Tubing for Espresso Systems

The hydraulic system is the engine room of your espresso machine, delivering water at precise pressures of 15-19 bars. At coffeeshop.md, we offer a comprehensive range of vibration pumps (including genuine Ulka pumps), solenoid valves, and high-pressure tubing. Our parts are compatible with Saeco, DeLonghi, and Jura, featuring official warranty and nationwide delivery in Moldova.

Pressure Myths: Is the pump always to blame?

If your machine loses pressure, don't rush to replace the pump immediately. A blocked expansion valve or a calcified teflon tube can cause the same symptoms. The pump generates the force, but the valves control the flow. We recommend checking your connectors and couplings for invisible leaks before committing to a new pump.

Pro Maintenance Tips:

• Descaling: Limescale is the enemy of solenoid valves. Use descaling detergents to keep the fluid paths clear.
• Dry Run Protection: Never operate the machine without water in the tank. Running dry can melt the pump's internal components.
• Seal Integrity: When replacing tubes, always use new O-rings to prevent moisture from reaching the electronic sensors.
