CONTROL COMPONENT DETAILS
Differential Control and Two Sensors:
Mount
the control to the wall or side of the tank (using
supplied two sided tape) in a location easy to get
at and within reach of an outlet.
Run the sensor wire from the absorber hot out
(top) to the controller being sure not to let the
sensor wire touch the copper tubing as it could
melt. It is a good idea to run the wire under the
roof boot or drill a separate small hole.
Place the sensor inside the collector in the top
absorber hole. It is good to move it under the
absorber. The sensor wires are high temperature
and will not melt so have them extending about
three inches outside the collector case.
Wire-nut and seal the sensor wires against the
weather. Remove the control cover and connect
the other end of the wire to the controller’s
Collector terminals.
Next,
being sure the power to the
element is turned off,
remove the lower
tank element cover. Install the other
sensor tightly between the insulation and
the inner metal tank at the lowest point
possible. Wire-nut the sensor to a short
section of sensor wire and wire the other
end to the “Storage” terminals in the
controller
.
Pump Connections:
The 110V pump is simply
plugged into the Controller and the controller pluged
into a wall 110V outlet.
See instructions that come with the
Differential Control.
Photovoltaic (PV) panel Option:
The PV panel is
normally mounted at the same plane as the collector
with no shading on it, hardware will be supplied with
the panel and a direct connection is made to the 12
Volt pump.
Pump Connections:
The PV pump is simply wire-
nutted to a sensor type wire, which in turn is wire-
nutted to the PV panel or through an on - off switch.
Installed PV panel with brackets bolted to the PV panel
and screwed to the roof with sealant around the screw
hole under the bracket. Note: 4 shorter brackets may
be supplied instead of 2 long ones.
