Victoria Arduino White Eagle Digit

White Eagle Digit is the heat-exchanger version of Victoria Arduino's (Simonelli Group) White Eagle range, available in 2- or 3-group configurations. The official hydraulic diagram, distinct from the T3 version of the same machine, lists a single boiler ("Caldaia / Boiler") plus a heat exchanger for each group ("Scambiatore di calore / Heater exchange"): the classic single-boiler architecture with heat-exchange draw, different from the T3 variant which instead declares a separate coffee boiler. Declared power supply for this version is 380 V three-phase 50 Hz, drawing 4500 W on the 2-group version.
The Digit's hydraulic diagram lists a manometer ("Manometro / Manometer"), on which the manual says the set pump pressure is read, a digital pressure switch ("Pressostato digitale / Digital pressostat") and a mechanical one; in the technician programming menu, the "SETPOINT PRESS." entry, marked as Digit-only, lets the working pressure/temperature be chosen. The steam chapter is explicitly titled "Manual steam wand", so steaming is done with a manual arm rather than an automatic system. The manual recommends installing a water softener followed by a mesh filter at the mains water outlet: the machine is designed for a fixed connection, not a removable tank.
The 2-group version weighs 71 kg net and measures, per the manual's technical drawing, 65.9 cm deep and 51.1 cm tall (659x511 mm). The drawing gives width only for the 3-group version (870/1050 mm depending on the measuring point), noting that the 2-group version is 230 mm shorter without stating the resulting figure: the manufacturer therefore does not give a single width value for this version. The document also does not specify the group type, boiler material, or whether the machine uses PID control in the strict sense. On pressure it gives only a calibration figure: in the chapter on adjustments reserved for a qualified technician, the pump is set with a screw and the "advisable pressure" is 9 bar, read on the gauge housed inside the machine; the manual does not state it as the brew pressure at the group.

Pros and cons
In favour
- Digital pressure switch and manometer in the hydraulic diagram; working pressure/temperature is set from the technician menu, a Digit-only entry source
- Fixed mains water connection with softener and mesh filter recommended by the manufacturer
- Heat-exchanger architecture explicitly documented in the official hydraulic diagram
Worth knowing
- Manual steam wand, not an automatic system: milk temperature depends on the barista's skill
- 71 kg net and a 380 V three-phase supply: requires a dedicated electrical installation, not a home outlet source
- The manual does not state the group type; for the pump it gives only the setting advised to the technician (9 bar), not the brew pressure at the group source
