System Overview: 

 

 

Installation and Connection: 

 

Display and Control Panel (Display Panel) 

Choose a central and easily accessible location in the living area for installation of the display panel. This will facilitate the 

legibility of the information and the operation of the functions. The clear width of the cutout is at least 184 x 57 mm.  
If possible, the rear cutout opening should be covered with electrically nonconducting material to ensure efficient 

protection of the electronic system and full utilization of the storage space, which might be located behind. 
 

Solar Controller: 

The VOTRONIC Solar Controller is connected directly at the display panel by a plug-and-go 6-pole data cable (see available 

accessories).  
 

Tank Sensors  

A VOTRONIC tank sensor with continuous output signal is to be installed at the corresponding tank according to the 

installation instructions. The connections of the tank sensor are to be coupled with the VPC Terra, as indicated in the 

connection plan. The cross-section of the cables should be min. 0.75 mm². The current supply for the tank sensors by the 

VPC is restricted to the time, in which the levels are interrogated at the display.
