The following symbols can be found in the texts of the 
instructions  Watch out for the symbols!

DANGER of personal injury 

 

Live-threatening electrical shocks, burns, bruising and 
other health hazards are possible during installation 

RISK

 

of material damage 

 

This symbol indicates that damage may be done to com-
ponents of the solar circuit or the function of the same 
may be impaired seriously  Please make sure that you fol-
low the installation procedure step by step as instructed 

ADDITIONAL

 

information 

 

This symbol points to practical advice and tricks of the 
trade which will make the installation and operation of the 
solar circuit easier 

1.1 Standards and Codes

The standards and regulations applicable at the installati-
on location must be adhered to 

1.2 Qualifications of the Installer

Setting up, installation and commissioning of the solar 
storage cylinder must be carried out by a qualified in-
staller 

1.3 Intended Use and Application 

ECOplus is an enameled solar storage tank for DHW heat-
ing in closed circuit heating and solar installations  It must 
be filled with domestic water only  The maximum tem-
perature in the storage must not exceed 95 °C  Observe 
correct settings at boiler and solar controllers (e g  max  
boiler temperature)! The storage tank shall be placed in 
a frost-proof room  The foundation at the installation site 
has to be dry and sufficiently stable to support the filled 
tank 
Wagner Solar cannot be held liable for damages resulting 
from improper use 

2 Scope of supply

The ECOplus solar cylinder is supplied standing upright 
and screwed onto a pallet  
The serial no  is located on the type label

Jacket insulation with hook ratchet closure (may be several 
parts, depending on storage type)

3

Insulation plug with cap for access flange

4,

Insulation plug with cap for imersion heater socket

5

Storage lid

6

Lid insulation

7

Outer ground insulation

8

Inner ground insulation

3 Installation

3.1 Preparation

The cylinder must be connected with short pipe lengths 
to the taps  
In order to complete the installation the following materi-
als are required:

 

Pipe connections to fit  1¼ “, 1“ and ¾“ male cylinder 
connections 

 

Thermostatic mixer (optional) 

 

Safety valve unit for the cold-water feed (optional) 

All storage connection stubs are cylindrical and designed 
for use with special heat resistant flat gaskets  The original 
gaskets from our connection sets should be used or alter-
natively gaskets of identical quality 
To reduce heat losses we recommend to use the 

 

CONVECTROL connection sets for all storage connection 
stubs 

3.2 Setting up the Storage

Risk of injury during transport through heavy weight! 
Wear safety shoes and protective gloves.

Knocks and banging can cause damage to the enamel 
coating on the inside!

 

Unscrew the storage from the palette, remove pack-
ing film and transport to the installation location  
The tank can be lifted at the foot ring and the hoisting 
ring at the top 

 

Positioning the storage tank for easy piping 

 

Tilt the tank to place the round inner floor insulation 
(fig  3)
