Collector assembly
Dimensions
The basic module is interconnected
with the first expansion module and
every other expansion module by in-
stalling an interconnecting plate on the
manifold and the bottom rail. About 6
cm are required on either side to inter-
connect the modules.
An AURON collector panel made from
evacuated tube collectors consists of a
basic module with terminals for a tem-
perature sensor and connectors for one
or more expansion modules.
This also applies to collector panels
arranged one above the other or side
by side. Assembly always starts with a
basic module fastened at four points.

up to 120 max.
maximum distance between two fastening points (adjacent)
B
135 - 185
maximum distance between two fastening points (stacked)
C

distance between mounting rail fasteners (Z-bracket)
D
138 - 1104
collector panel length
E
7 - 25
collector panel projection beyond the first and last fastening point
F

size of manifold and bottom rail interconnecting plate
All other fastener locations between
these two points shall be individually
determined taking into account the
spacing between rafters, the type of tile
and the location of the interconnecting
plates between the manifolds and the
bottom rail.
Collector panel length (D):
The total length of the collector panel is
the sum of the lengths of the individual
manifolds.
Length of AURON 15 DF manifold:
138 cm
Length of AURON 20 DF manifold:
184 cm
The length of the collector panel deter-
mines the location of the first and last
fastening point.
Remember that the panel projects
between 7 and 25 centimetres (E)
beyond this point.
