Installing the collectors
Once the mounting brackets and the rails with the
clamping brackets have been installed, the collectors can
be fitted.
8.1
Fitting the first collector
Align the first collector in such a way that during
installation all collectors have the same overhang over the
vertical rails to the right and left.
B
Place the collector still packaged onto the rails.
B
Open the packaging at the bottom. This allows the
collector to slip into the lower clamps (
Æ
Fig. 31, [3]).
These clamps must provide secure grip into the
collector profile.
B
Align the collector to the horizontal rails, push the
edges of the collectors onto the rails, ensure they
securely rest on the rails.
Once all the collectors are installed, the overhangs on
the sides will have to be identical.
B
Install the upper clamps (
Æ
Fig. 31, [1 or 2]) onto the
rails in the same way as the lower clamps [3]. Fasten
the upper clamps once the other collectors have been
installed.

DANGER:
Risk to life through falling objects!
B
Secure the collectors against falling
during handling and installation.
WARNING:
Risk of injury through glass
splinters.
B
When handling collectors, always wear
protective gear including but not limited to
safety gloves and goggles.
NOTICE:
Collector damage through
evaporation in the solar circuit.
B
Leave the sun protection film on the
collector until the collector has been
flushed and filled. However, it should not
be exposed to weather for more than
4 weeks.
B
Fit a suitable sun protection cover for
longer periods of time.
