2 PRECAUTIONS
The operation of any appliance that uses electrical power
demands that a number of fundamental safety precautions
be respected. In particular:
a
Never attempt to install the system without using suit-
able personal protection equipment and without fol-
lowing all applicable occupational safety standards.
a
It is forbidden to touch the device while barefoot or
with wet or moist body parts.
a
It is forbidden to perform any technical or cleaning
operations before having disconnected the device
from its electrical power supply, by setting the sys-
tem's main switch to "off".
a
It is forbidden to pull, detach, or twist the electrical
cables protruding from the device, even if it is discon-
nected from its electrical power supply.
a
Do not expose the storage cylinder to the elements. It
is not designed for use outdoors.
a
If solar plant pressure decreases, it is forbidden to
top up with only water as there is a danger of freezing
and overheating.
a
Do not use connections or safety devices or fittings
(expansion vessels, pipes, insulation) that are not
specifically designed and tested for use in solar wa-
ter heating systems.
a
Do not allow children or infirm persons to operate the
system unsupervised.
a
Do not dispose of packaging material into the envi-
ronment, or leave it within the reach of children, since
it can become a potential hazard. Dispose of packag-
ing material in compliance with applicable legislation.
3 DESCRIPTION OF THE
APPLIANCE
The solar station
CONNECT SOLAR R
allows transferring
sun power from collectors to a storage system.
The solar station
B

ene foam) insulating casing and is designed to perform:
- system flushing
- system filling and emptying
- circulator removal.
The key components are:
- high-efficiency circulator running at fixed or variable
speed
- non-return shut-off valve
- thermometer
- pressure gauge
- fitting for connection to a solar expansion tank
- suitable safety device, as indicated in paragraph "
Safety and control devices"
- flow-meter with flow-rate regulator.
4 SAFETY AND CONTROL DEVICES
The solar station safety is ensured by a safety valve with
intervention pressure of 6 bar.
