| This is the Richard Penney design pressure gauge adapter specifically
for adding a gauge to a La Pavoni Europiccola espresso machine.
Teflon sealing washer included for the bottom of the adapter...your
gauge is sealed on the adapter with teflon tape (not included) which is
applied in varying thicknesses to achieve the orientation of the gauge
that you desire. There is a lot of confusion and misinformation
about these adapters - MEASURE your machine's fitting to be sure which
you need - the fitting uses an 11mm thread. The top housing cap screw thread will measure slightly less than 11mm.
A rule of thumb, generally, the Millenium machines and SOME of the
Pre-Millenium machines (those which used plastic sight glass cover) will
use an 11mm adapter.
We offer these adapters in both stainless steel and polished brass, please choose which metal you want to buy! THE SMALL THREAD ADAPTER FITS THE SMALLER 11mm FITTINGS - Be SURE of the size you need!This is the full setup including economy 2 bar gauge and adapter. This kit will give you an instant upgrade to your Europiccola.....Richard Penny Manometer adapter fitting and 2 bar pressure gauge. The gauge is a generic black bodied gauge, 1 1/2 inches in diameter with a glass lens.
