Eversys E2m — PSSR examination & servicing
E2m machines are used in high-volume offices, transport hubs and quick-service sites nationwide. The engineer carries out the statutory PSSR examination, the front-end service and the water treatment on this model — a standalone examination is £265 + VAT, or £645 + VAT with the service included.
Quick answer
Does a Eversys E2m need a PSSR examination?
Yes, if it operates in a workplace. It carries a single steam boiler with its own protective devices, which is the pressure system in scope. Steam is a relevant fluid under PSSR 2000 and steam systems are covered at any pressure and any volume, so the boiler must have a Written Scheme of Examination and be examined periodically by a competent person.

The machine
Why the E2m matters to the Eversys owner
The most common Eversys in our records. A sealed steel boiler at a 3.3 bar design rating, and a working pressure of 1.5 bar — higher than anything traditional here.
In practice you will find it in high-volume offices, transport hubs and quick-service sites — which shapes what the examination looks like on site: how the machine is accessed, how long it can be offline, and how much scale it has accumulated.
On the day
- The steam boiler is located and examined. On a sealed stainless vessel the examination is external — wall thickness, corrosion at fittings, and the condition of every connection — with internal inspection by borescope only where the vessel design allows access.
- The safety valve, expansion valve, pressure sensor and thermal cut-outs are identified, checked and function tested.
- The pressure gauge is verified against our calibrated test gauge, not against itself.
- The vessel is small and sealed, so there is no drain-down and refill to wait for. The time goes on getting to it, which is why the brew unit and panels come off.
- The Written Scheme of Examination records the vessel as sealed and sets out the external examination and the protective devices it relies on.

All prices exclude VAT. A single steam boiler with one set of protective devices to examine. We confirm the exact figure on the call.
Filters are fitted on site by an engineer and are not posted out. The filter price applies when ordered with a PSSR examination, service, call-out or water test; booked alone it is charged at the standard call-out.
What we see on this model
- Sealed stainless steel at 3.3 bar design. That is a higher-rated vessel than a La Marzocco or a Fracino, so the external examination and the protective device test carry more of the weight.
- Eversys machines are usually maintained on a supplier contract, which creates a false impression that the statutory examination is covered. It is a separate duty.
- Eversys parts are proprietary and dealer-supplied. The safety valve is a three-part rebuild kit rather than a valve you can buy off the shelf, and the annual parts kit runs into several hundred pounds. We quote those separately, before fitting.
- Single group plus milk module; the milk/steam vessel is the 5.6 L boiler. Milk circuit is the highest-wear part of this machine - nozzle, suction tube and pump/valve block all scale and clog, and the milk heater has its own temperature sensor (W-040/W-056). The 5.6 L steam boiler module is available as an assembly (105280, e'2m V2).
- A standalone Eversys preventative maintenance visit runs £300–£600 on the open market for labour plus the mandatory manufacturer kit, and an inclusive contract £1,000–£2,200 a year. Our published bundle covers the labour and the examination; the Eversys service kit itself is charged at cost with the visit, because kit prices move with the model and the cycle count. Eversys build the machine from removable modules, so a module swap is quick work compared with stripping a traditional group.

Fault finder
What actually goes wrong on a Eversys E2m
Owners usually call us with a symptom, not a diagnosis. This is what that symptom most often turns out to be on this machine, and what putting it right involves.
| Symptom | Usual cause | What fixes it |
|---|---|---|
| Machine halts mid-service, 'brewing unit blocked' / brew unit will not initialise (W-011, W-012, S-020) | coffee and oil build-up plus worn top/bottom piston rod seals make the brew piston too stiff for the motor to home | strip and clean the brew unit, fit the piston-rod fitting and o-rings from the brew PM kit, re-initialise. |
| Drinks run slow, 'water flow too low' (W-004/W-005) | Eversys' own order: water supply, grinder set too fine, overloaded powder chute, then an exhausted water filter, scale at the flowmeter gives the same reading | check supply and filter counter first, then grind, then hydraulic side. |
| No steam or milk, coffee still pours, E-102/E-103 fill timeout or E-104 heating timeout | closed supply, blocked filter, failed inlet valve, scaled filling line, E-106/E-107 are sensor or stuck contactor instead | supply and inlet valve for the timeouts, sensor and cable for E-107, element circuit and contactor for the overheat pair. |
| Grinder runs on and machine shuts down (E-021), or 'grinder blocked' (W-068/W-069) | three causes Eversys separates: grind too fine, stone in the burrs, or a failed triac on the power board | coarser grind and clear the obstruction, if E-021 is logged the power board triac is the suspect, not the grinder. |
| Machine refuses all coffee until cleaned (S-017) | cleaning-ball dispenser light barrier dirty, or ball blocked/broken, so the machine believes it was cleaned without detergent and locks out | refill or replace balls, clean the light barrier, complete a clean with a ball detected. |
| Time and date lost at every power cycle (W-027/W-028) | display battery dead | replace the display. |
| Grinder runs on endlessly and the machine shuts down (E-021). | Grinder motor detected turning endlessly; documented cause is a defective triac on the power board. | Replace the power-board triac (100 253). |
| No steam or hot water; 'timeout during steam boiler filling' (E-103). | Fill timeout: closed tap, blocked steam-boiler fill nozzle (exhausted water filter), or supply fault. | Supply, filter and fill nozzle first, then re-run the fill. |
| Steam boiler slow to pressure or timed out (E-104). | Heating timeout (20 min after init, 10 min in operation), usually the klixon thermal breaker on the element. | Reset the klixon; if it recurs, test element and steam triac. |
| Milk drinks too hot or milk temperature unstable (W-045 / W-046). | Clogged nozzle after the milk pump, perished or blocked milk suction tube, or a clogged milk pump/valve block - often because the last clean was run without Everclean. | Clean with Everclean, clear the post-pump nozzle, replace the suction tube, check the pump and valve block. |
| No milk at all; 'milk pump left doesn't run' (W-054). | Milk pump or its wiring connection failed. | Check the milk pump and its connector; replace the pump if dead (101 332 gear pump with EC motor). |
These are faults documented for this model, not a generic list.

0208 037 9340
How much does a PSSR examination cost on a Eversys E2m?
A standalone examination is £265 + VAT, because a single steam boiler with one set of protective devices to examine. Combined with a front-end service it is £645 + VAT, which is what most high-volume offices, transport hubs and quick-service sites choose, since the boiler has to be drained for the examination either way. The bundle on this range is higher than our standard ladder because its service parts are proprietary: a manufacturer service kit and an OEM safety valve cost several times the generic equivalents, and on some models there is no generic equivalent at all. We confirm the exact figure on the call.
How often does a Eversys E2m need examining?
The Written Scheme of Examination sets the interval, and for a commercial machine used in high-volume offices, transport hubs and quick-service sites it is typically 12 to 14 months. A single boiler on this duty normally sits at the middle of that range unless the water is hard, which we test on the day and report with the certificate.
How long does a Eversys E2m examination take, and what happens on the day?
The vessel is small and sealed, so there is no drain-down and refill to wait for. The time goes on getting to it, which is why the brew unit and panels come off. The visit runs: the steam boiler is located and examined. on a sealed stainless vessel the examination is external — wall thickness, corrosion at fittings, and the condition of every connection — with internal inspection by borescope only where the vessel design allows access. the safety valve, expansion valve, pressure sensor and thermal cut-outs are identified, checked and function tested. The gauge is then verified against our calibrated test gauge, the system is pressure tested and held, and the machine is re-assembled, refilled, heated and function tested. The Written Scheme of Examination, signed report and asset record follow within 48 hours.
