The collector installation must be carried out using the kits and connections supplied by Alpha. A maximum of two collectors
can be connected together using the additional collector connection kit.
The DBU should be positioned as close as possible under the solar collector. To enable the system to drain back correctly,
the top of the DBU must be below the bottom of the collectors with a continuous fall to the DBU connections. The pipework
between the collector and DBU can be extended according to the table in Fig. 6, maintaining a maximum vertical distance of
4 m using stainless steel or copper pipe and no soldered joints.
The pipework between the solar cylinder and DBU can be extended to a maximum of 10m, maintaining a maximum vertical
distance of 6 m.
All pipework should be installed using the minimum of bends and restrictions possible and insulated using high temperature
lagging for the pipework between the collector and DBU.
