SolarCon solar water heater tank 

 NAS200 Series 

Installation, commissioning and servicing instructions 

Function 

The solar  water heater  is designed  with an  internal coil  and  backup 
electric  heating  element.  A  heating  medium  is  passed  through  the 
solar  panels  and  internal  coil  as  long  as  there  is  an  adequate 
temperature difference between the heating medium and stored water 
in  the  tank.  The  internal  coil  is  located  as  close  to  the  bottom  as 
possible  to  facilitate  the  transfer  of  heat  even  at  lower  solar  panel 
temperatures. 
During  periods  of  water  flow  through  the  water  heater,  hot  water  is 
drawn  from  the  top  of  the  heater  and  cold  water  is  delivered  to  the 
bottom  of  the  tank  (by  a  dip  tube  or  bottom  inlet).  If  the  hot  water 
demand should exceed the solar heat input or there is an insufficient 
temperature  difference  between  the  heating  medium  and  stored 
water,  the  heating  element  thermostat  will  activate  the  electrical 
heating element for backup heat or boiler backup top coil. 
Solar heat output from the internal coil will vary depending on outside 
conditions and the temperature of the stored water.
