SOLAR COLLECTOR LOCATION
11
Maximum Height to Collectors
– Indirect Closed Circuit
The solar collectors must be the highest point of the system. The maximum
height of the solar installation, from the base of the solar storage tank to the top
of the solar collectors, is 7.5 m. The pump supplied will not circulate closed
circuit fluid through heights greater than 7.5 m and solar gain will not be
achieved.
An additional or auxiliary pump cannot be added to this system, nor can the
pump supplied with the system be replaced with another pump, to increase the
maximum height of the system.
Note
: The top of the solar storage tank must be a minimum of 500 mm below
the bottom of the solar collectors for the system to operate correctly.
