Connecting the collectors to one another
The collectors must be connected to one another and/or to the connection pipes using the
supplied connectors. When tightening the union nuts and/or compression fittings, always balance
(counter) the torque
*
with a pipe wrench or another spanner to prevent damage to the absorber.
Do not run the solar collector(s) without safety valve in the system to avoid over
pressure in the solar circuit.
*
torque in Nm is available in certain countries from the
data sheet attached to the collector
Collector angle
It is recommended to keep the solar collector angle within the range of minimum 5° and maximum
75°.
The following diagram below is an example of how the collectors can be connected to one
another. However, the actual connection may be different depending on structural conditions. A
maximum of 6 collectors may be connected in a series! If a collector panel is made up of more
than 6 collectors, the panel must be connected several times in parallel
