4.15 Flushing the pump
It is necessary to flush the pump in order to remove any air. The procedure for this is as
follows:
Connect the two connection points on the tank for the collector pipes with a short length
of pipe (can be either red or blue). Connect the two terminals on the sensor cable
connection point using a short piece of wire. Supply power to the storage tank through
the 12V adaptor. The pump will start running. Leave it running for one minute before
removing the short piece of wire and the short length of pipe.
4.16 Connecting the collector circuit
Connect the collector flow and return pipes to the connectors on the tank. To avoid leaks
ensure that the pipe ends have been cut square. Before connecting the blue pipe to the
tank, insert the flow restrictor to a depth of at least 3cm.
Connect the sensor cable from one of the collectors to the sensor cable connecting point
on the tank.
Fit the pipe insulation provided for this purpose to the red collector flow pipe along its full
length.
