7313259842 Genuine Vaporiser Heating Element 1070W 230V for De'Longhi Coffee Machines, Thermoblock Style Water Heater

De'Longhi 7313259842 is a genuine vaporiser, the heater block that brings water up to temperature as it passes through a De'Longhi coffee machine. Its description gives a rating of 1070W at 230V. No compatible models are recorded for this number, so match it to your machine's parts list, or compare the number and wattage marked on your existing heater, before ordering.

Coffee machine not heating or tripping the power

Water pumped from the tank flows through channels in the vaporiser, where an embedded element raises it to brewing or steaming temperature in seconds. Thermostats or sensors fixed to the block tell the controls when it's hot enough. When the element burns out, the machine may pump cold water, never finish heating, show a heating error or blink endlessly. An element that has shorted can trip the safety switch as soon as the machine is turned on. Heavy scale inside the block can also cause overheating and weak flow.

Before you replace the vaporiser

Unplug the machine and allow plenty of time for the heater to cool, as it holds heat long after use. Photograph every wire, sensor and hose connection before removing anything. Move across any sensors or fuses that don't come with the new block, use new seals on the water connections and test for leaks before closing the case. If you're not confident with mains wiring, have a qualified technician do the job.

Questions about this part

Does the wattage need to match my old heater?

Yes. The heater has to suit the machine's controls and power supply, so check that your existing vaporiser is also rated 1070W at 230V and that your parts list shows 7313259842. A different rating points to a different part.
