▶ Install a device into the return at the lowest point in the solar system
for draining the solar system (tee with fill and drain valve [1]).

4.2 Laying pipes
Evacuated tube collectors
The minimum pipe length from the solar pump station to the collector
array must be at least 10 m (single length).
The minimum height clearance for the connection of the expansion
vessel to the collector array is 2 m.

Solar-Lifestyle/Solar-Lito flat-plate collectors
To prevent air pockets when using an automatic air vent valve on the
collector array:
▶ Route the pipes from the pump station to the collector/air vent [1] on
a rising incline.
▶ If a change of direction downwards is unavoidable, install additional
heat-resistant (150 °C) air vents.
Fig. 9 Position of the automatic air vent valve
In some cases, the solar pump station [1] cannot be installed
underneath the collectors (e.g. in the case of attic installations).
Form a "pipe trough" with the flow in order to prevent overheating in
such systems:
▶ Firstly, route the flow to the height of collector return connection [2].
Then route it to the solar pump station.

Connecting pipework
▶ Copper pipes must only be soldered with brazing solder i.e. no low
temperature soldering.
-or-
▶ Use glycol and heat-resistant (150 °C) compression fittings or push-
fit fittings.
If necessary, allow for the flow of a fill and drain valve as
well (

Chapter 6.2.1, page 13).
If the minimum pipe length or the minimum height
distance
cannot be maintained:
▶ Form a "pipe trough" at least 1.5 m high with the flow
and return lines on the collector array (

Fig. 8).

NOTICE: Risk of damage to the collector through heat
created by brazing.
▶ Do not solder close to evacuated tube collectors.
If threaded pipe connections are caulked with hemp:
▶ Use a thread sealing compound resistant to
temperatures up to 150 °C (e.g. NeoFermit
universal).
