NOTE

1.  Standard output systems  (S Models) should be used in hot locations and 

high output systems (L Models) in more   temperate ones. However hot 
water availability will vary throughout the year depending on prevailing 
irradiation levels and electric boosters may be necessary on cooler days.

 

2.  Maximum  heating  output  is  based  on  average irradiation  levels  of 

2

 

 

6000W/m /day prevailing in September - March and minimum Heating

2

 

output is based on average irradiation levels of 4000W/m /dayprevailing 
in June/July and are for indicative purposes only.
