De'Longhi uses solenoid valves in its coffee machines to send water and steam to the right outlet at the right moment. No model list is on file for this number, so check the code on your old valve or the parts list for your model before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSigns of a faulty solenoid valve in a De'Longhi coffee machine\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen the machine calls for water or steam, the valve's coil pulls a plunger to open a passage, then closes it again when power is removed. Scale is the main enemy. Mineral deposits can stop the plunger seating, so water drips or keeps running into the drip tray, or block it so little or no water reaches the brew unit or wand. A burnt-out coil leaves the valve shut, which often brings up an error or a pump that runs without delivering anything. Regular descaling helps the new valve last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine De'Longhi part 5213218371\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eElectrically operated solenoid valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eControls water or steam flow inside the machine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfirm against your machine's model or the old valve\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting tips for the solenoid valve\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the machine off at the wall, unplug it and let it cool fully, as internal parts and water stay hot for some time.
