La Pavoni tlak spínač potrubí

The newer model of la Pavoni Europiccola and all the models of the Pavoni Professional use a modern pressure switch.  Currently those are the Ma-ter Echo pressure switches. Seen these can’t be installed directly into the heating element (the pressure switch would stick out the bottom off the base). For this problem they have found a solution.

In the bottom of the heating element is a hole. So screw a copper tube in the base of the heating element, and bend the copper tube. So that the tube is at the end horizontal. Because it is horizontal the pressure switch will remain within the boundaries of the espresso machine base.

How do I install the copper pressure switch tube on my la Pavoni Europiccola/Professional heating element. Try to bend the part with the male tread with a small enough radius, but big enough so the copper tube doesn’t kink or flattens. The female section of the copper tube needs to be parallel to the base.
