2. Important Installer Tips
Always:-
Use only solar quality O rings if you are using press ttings.•
Do not install the panels upside down; they will only work the right way up.•
Use support sleeves (pipes inserts).•
Never use plastic pipes for the thermal circuit.•
Join copper pipes by brazing, Compression ttings, or Press ttings, not with soft solder.•
The glycol is ready mixed; do not add water or any other ingredient.•
If you are not buying our pressure vessel, make sure the one you use has a glycol resistant •
membrane.
Pressure test the panels before you connect up the circuit, especially if you are tting them •
inside the roof.
3. Working with panels
(Storing, unpacking and moving the panels)
Storing
Panels must be stored vertically against a wall or kept on the pallet until you are ready to install •
them.
Panels must not be stored on their horizontal sides because their pipes might be damaged.•
Unpacking
Unpack panels carefully so they are not damaged. The packaging is designed to be recyclable. •
Dispose of all packaging in an environmental friendly way by taking it to recycling centres.
Take care when carrying the panels to the roof. Carrying and manipulating heavy weights •
and large frames on the roof is difcult and can cause you to slip. Make sure that you have all
necessary support harnesses and help for the job.
Moving
Take care when the panels are exposed to the sun. The absorber plate and heat transfer reach •
ultra high temperatures in excess of 200 degrees Celsius and should not be touched whether
the system is in operation or not, otherwise severe burns will be suffered. In very hot conditions
shield the absorber parts of the panels from direct sunlight until the installation is complete.
