Coffee Boiler Inspections
PSSR examinations for espresso machine boilers, commercial coffee machine pressure systems and steam equipment in food service environments.
LDN Inspection Services provides statutory PSSR examinations for coffee boilers and pressure systems used in cafes, restaurants, hotels and coffee shops. Our qualified pressure systems engineers examine boilers, safety valves and associated pipework, delivering clear digital reports and written schemes of examination.
Coffee Boiler PSSR Examinations
Commercial coffee machines contain pressurised boilers that fall under the Pressure Systems Safety Regulations 2000 (PSSR). Espresso machines, bulk brew systems and steam-generating equipment all operate at pressures that can cause serious injury if a failure occurs. Under PSSR, duty holders must ensure these systems are properly examined by a competent person.
Coffee boilers are particularly susceptible to limescale accumulation, internal corrosion and safety valve degradation due to the constant heating of water. Without regular examination, these issues can compromise the integrity of the pressure system and create a risk of sudden energy release.
Our PSSR examinations cover the complete coffee machine pressure system including the boiler shell, safety valves, pressure gauges, steam wands, pipework and water treatment systems. We provide written schemes of examination and clear reports that help you maintain compliance.
Key Requirements
- A written scheme of examination prepared by a competent person
- Regular examinations at intervals specified in the scheme
- Safety valves and pressure relief devices must function correctly
- Proper maintenance records and examination reports retained
- Defects must be acted upon within specified timescales
