The one you just found doesn't look at all like a Campini Ty 60, but I assume that you've verified that it can easily be installed in a Silvia. If that's true, many of the ones I saw are too large. How do you know that this thermostat's amp rating is high enough? Finally, while these switches may open reliably at/near the specified temperature, it's clear that they might not be as accurate in the other direction. Maybe that's why many discovered that it's better to time the shot relative to the switch opening instead of closing, and why PID controllers became so popular. Felix

Yes, that's right., doesn't look at all like a Campini Ty 60, who gives flying f**k, a coffeegeek in Scotland like I said ordered these 3 + years ago & working just fine in my Silvia. If I didn't have this stat why in HELL would I take the time to dig up the info man?? > How do you know that this thermostat's amp rating is high enough? > Finally, while these switches may open reliably at/near the specified > temperature, it's clear that they might not be as accurate in the > other direction.

Elsewhere in this thread, you acknowledged learning about your 110C thermostat source "3+ years" ago. Maybe you *knew* of a source, but don't actually know one?

There are even some mfrs who make adjustable versions, and some designs with very low differential ranges (like 5 degree and less for some): http://tinyurl.com/29f8fj Brad

"Emily Davis" responds to Craig Andrews: > You have so much information and so little time! He does seem uncharacteristically meanspirited. On the other hand, the only listing I found for a 110C Silvia thermostat included a photo of one that's identical to the one Chris advertises as 100C. Which photo is stale? If they are as rare as they seem, perhaps the secret is worth keeping. Campini's pictures don't help ... it wouldn't surprise me if the part is no longer made. If it were my machine, I'd try to install a 100C stat so it senses temperatures that are a bit lower than usual. I have no idea if that's possible, but I wouldn't hold out for 110C. Felix

As part of the testing I did on a "new" pod-capable Silvia, the hottest shot I could get with 100C tstat was 195F - pulled at the peak of the temp curve. Shots pulled at other times were as low as 185F. Test results (mostly PID) posted on H-B: http://tinyurl.com/yu978d Jim

The only reason Rancilio Italy changed them over (around mid 2003) or so, was because too many people bitched about the old 110C stat being "too" hot & getting a little water flashing to steam @ the grouphead.. 110C "too" hot, 100C "too" cool LOL!

Well, the source is in England., & they have a minimum quantity order. Three years ago the person who ordered them didn't have to order very many as he lives in the UK, Scotland. That very well may have changed in the 3+ years since.. Craig.
