Apuro CX877-A 30L Energy Saving Water Boiler | Double-Wall 10A

The Apuro 30L Commercial Energy-Saving Manual Fill Water Boiler (CX877-A) is a high-capacity, thermally insulated benchtop hot water urn engineered specifically for Australian cafes, mobile snack vans, food trailers, catering companies, church halls, community centres, sporting clubs, and busy commercial staff rooms. Sized at 490 mm Wide x 585 mm High and weighing 6.88 kg, this 30-litre manual-fill beverage boiler features an advanced double-walled stainless steel construction that reduces electricity consumption by up to 60% compared to traditional single-skinned urns. Driven by a fast-heating 2.2kW concealed element running on standard Australian single-phase 230–240V mains power with a 10 Amp plug, the CX877-A heats water roughly six minutes faster than non-insulated boilers while retaining heat with exceptional efficiency between 30°C and 100°C for high-volume tea, coffee, and hot beverage service.

Why operators choose the Apuro CX877-A:

• Double-walled thermal insulation (up to 60% energy savings) — dual-skin stainless steel casing with specialized thermal insulation drastically reduces standby heat loss, lowering electricity bills and keeping the outer housing cooler to the touch.

• Rapid heating & superior temperature retention — brings water to serving temperature up to 6 minutes faster than non-insulated models, retaining heat so effectively that water drops only around 18°C over two full hours when turned off.

• Substantial 30-litre commercial capacity — provides ample piping-hot water to handle large crowds, busy conference intervals, and high-demand breakfast shifts without requiring constant manual refills.

• Concealed 2.2kW heating element — mounted underneath the flat internal stainless steel base to prevent direct contact with water, drastically reducing limescale accumulation and simplifying routine descaling.

• Precision rotary temperature control — user-friendly mechanical thermostat dial allows accurate adjustment from 30°C up to 100°C, supported by an automatic keep-warm mode to maintain optimal serving temperatures without continuous boiling.

• Durable non-drip dispensing tap — commercial lever tap with a 140mm cup clearance height accommodates standard coffee mugs, teacups, and takeaway cups without tipping.

• Boil-dry thermal safety cut-off — external safety cut-out switch with manual reset prevents element burnout and extends equipment lifespan if the reservoir boils dry.

• Stable non-slip countertop rubber feet — prevents shifting, sliding, and accidental tipping on slick commercial benchtops, food truck serving shelves, or laminate event tables.

• Standard 10A plug-and-play installation — efficient 2200W draw runs on standard Australian single-phase 230–240V power with a factory-fitted 10 Amp plug, requiring no 15A circuits or specialist hardwiring.

Technical Specifications

Operating & Service Notice

This commercial water urn is designed exclusively for boiling and dispensing clean, potable water; never place milk, cordial, tea leaves, ground coffee, or soup mixes directly into the tank. Always check that the water level covers the internal base plate before turning the thermostat on to avoid tripping the thermal reset switch. In hard-water areas across Australia, mineral scale will naturally accumulate over time; descale the interior regularly using a commercial food-grade urn or espresso descaler to keep the concealed element running at maximum thermal efficiency. Disconnect from power and allow the water to cool fully before cleaning the stainless steel exterior with a soft damp cloth.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the double-walled design save up to 60% on running costs?

Traditional single-skinned commercial urns radiate heat rapidly through their exposed metal walls, forcing the element to cycle on and off constantly to keep water hot. The Apuro CX877-A features an insulated dual-layer stainless steel body that locks heat inside the cylinder. This minimises heat loss, allowing water to heat up approximately 6 minutes faster and saving up to 60% in electricity consumption over standard service shifts.

How well does this boiler retain heat when turned off?

Thanks to its heavy-duty insulation, the CX877-A retains water temperature exceptionally well. Even when completely disconnected or switched off, water temperature drops by only around 18°C over a two-hour period, making it ideal for mobile catering vans, market stalls, and off-grid pop-up service where continuous power may be limited.

Can standard takeaway coffee cups fit under the tap?

Yes. The commercial non-drip lever tap provides 140mm of clearance from the counter base to the spout, allowing standard ceramic mugs, glasses, and commercial 8oz/12oz takeaway coffee cups to fit comfortably underneath without awkward tilting.

What should I do if the unit accidentally runs dry?

The CX877-A is protected by an integrated thermal safety cut-out that automatically kills power if the water boils away completely. If this occurs, switch off and unplug the boiler, allow it to cool down for 15 to 20 minutes, refill with fresh cold water, and press the external thermal reset button located on the base of the machine to restore heating.

What electrical outlet is required?

The Apuro CX877-A operates on standard Australian 230–240V single-phase power, drawing 2.2kW (approx. 9.6 Amps). It is factory-fitted with a standard Australian 10 Amp plug, making it ready for instant plug-and-play use in any standard commercial kitchen, mobile trailer, or office power point without requiring a 15A electrical circuit.
