Connection sequence

Connect the SOLARLINK to a belair JUNCTION or RESERVOIR using the supplied 4-pin
cable with the JUNCTION or RESERVOIR off. If you are stacking RESERVOIRS onto a
JUNCTION, the SOLARLINK should be connected to the RESERVOIR furthest away from
the JUNCTION.

Connect the solar panels to the SOLARLINK.

Turn on the JUNCTION or RESERVOIR

Turn on the SOLARLINK

Disconnection sequence

Whilst the belair system and connectors are rated for connection under load, lifetime of the
connectors will be dramatically increased by only manipulating the connections without
load.

The solar panel connectors are industry-standard MC4 type for convenience, however these
connectors are not rated for disconnection under load!

It is therefore very important to follow the correct sequence when disconnecting your
SOLARLINK.

1. Press power button to turn off SOLARLINK
2. Disconnect solar panels
3. Disconnect cable between SOLARLINK and RESERVOIR or JUNCTION
