You could call it that if you want, but no one would understand what you were referring to.

Fair enough. And a last (probably) stupid question from me... As 1f =/= 1c, do you have to be specific in which manufacturers you go to? Basically would it be possible to fix an American machine with a UK part as they use farenheit and not Celcius?

The V-Vostok does have a pressurestat, but it's not used how you think....the lever group itself has no electric connection to the pump or main board. The pressurestat in the Vostok is purely used to detect a drop in pressure within the sealed system because the lever has been pulled and opens a valve into the group chamber....it then starts the pump.

All thermal management is by PID and sensors, not a pressurestat.

So a pressure stat can control temperature? Would it not then be called a temperature stat?

@DavecUK Does this machine have a pressure stat? I was reading in another thread about @The Systemic Kid's L1 and how it had a stat? Are they necessary in lever machines?
