b
After removing the packaging make sure that eve-
rything is there and undamaged, if not contact the
THERMITAL Agency that sold you the appliance.
b
The installation of the THERMITAL solar storage
cylinder
BPS SOL ES should be carried out by a
company certified pursuant to Law no. 46 of March
5, 1990, which when the work is finished will issue
the owner with a declaration of conformity that the
installation is up to standard, i.e. in compliance with
regulations in force and with the recommendations
provided by the THERMITAL instruction booklet.
b
The THERMITAL solar storage cylinders
BPS SOL
ES can be installed in any room where an electri-
cal protection level for the appliance greater than IP
X0D is not required. The room where it is installed
should be dry, to prevent rust forming. Respect the
minimum distances for maintenance and assembly.

The THERMITAL solar storage cylinders
BPS SOL
ES should only be used for the purposes foreseen
by THERMITAL
for which it has been designed.
N o contractual or extracontractual liability is accept-
ed by THERMITAL for damage caused to people,
animals, or objects due to errors in installation,
adjustment, or maintenance or by improper use.
b
If necessary, use a pressure reducer for the water
input.
b
Use a safety valve calibrated in the manner shown
on the technical data label on the storage cylinder.
b
Use an expansion tank of a suitable size for the
dimensions of the storage cylinder (it recommended
that this calculation be done by a heating engineer).
b
Before start-up it would be good to check the tight-
ness of the flange screws.
b
Maintenance of the storage cylinder should be car-
ried out at least once a year.
b
In the event of a water leak, disconnect the storage
cylinder from the main power supply, shut off the
water supply and promptly notify the THERMITAL
Technical Assistance Centre or professionally quali-
fied personnel.
b
Check the state of wear of the magnesium anode
and replace it if necessary.
b
Not using the storage cylinder for a long period of
time requires that at least the following operations
be carried out:

- Drain the solar heating circuit - if present - and the
heating system
- Close the shut-off devices of the water system
- Switch off the boiler as described in the appli-
ance's instruction booklet.
b
If the storage cylinder is part of a solar system, mix
the anti-freeze (propylene glycol), available sepa-
rately, with water in a variable percentage (30 to
50%) following the instructions in the THERMITAL
operating and maintenance manual.
b
Always fill the solar system with the water/glycol mix-
ture in the percentage reported in the THERMITAL
operating and maintenance manual.
b
