Installation Manual
lectors to avoid leaks and fluid loss. Use only lead-free solder. Engelhard Silvabrite 100 or equal is
required. Use of 50/50 lead solder is expressly prohibited. Use of galvanized steel, CPVC, PVC, or
any other type of plastic pipe is prohibited.
Piping in new solar installation may have dirt, grease, solder flux or other impurities in the piping
that over time affect the quality of the glycol HTF. A thorough cleaning is required before charging
the system with glycol.
All vertical piping between the storage tank and the collector shall be supported at each story or at
maximum intervals of ten feet (10'). Copper plumbers tape or tube strap is required. The pipe insu-
lation may not be compressed or crimped by the strapping material.
The installation of all horizontal and vertical piping may not reduce the performance or rating of any
structural member or fire rated assembly. Adhere to all applicable local codes and ordinances.
COLLECTOR SENSOR PLACEMENT
The collector sensor must be located on the hot
water return line as close to the collector as pos-
sible. Some collectors have insertion areas to
measure temperatures more accurately at the
collector manifold.
Sensors are typically accurate to +/– 1/2°F if
properly installed and weatherized. To maximize
sensor accuracy, attach the flanged portion of
the sensor to the collector header pipe with a
stainless steel hose clamp. Wire nuts used to
connect the sensor and low voltage wiring shall
be all plastic, sealed with silicone and thorough-
ly wrapped in electrician's tape.
The low voltage wiring used to connect the sen-
sors to the controller should be a minimum 18
AWG. The wiring should be bare or tinned cop-
per, two conductor, PVC insulated, with a PVC
UV rated gray jacket suitable for exterior use.
Use Eastman Wire & Cable no. 5704, Beldon
Wire and Cable no. 8461 or equal.
The sensor "bundle" must be placed under the rubber pipe insulation covering the collector header.
Thoroughly wrap and weatherize the insulation with electrician's tape or insulation tape as provided
by the manufacturer. (Rubatex Insul-Tape or equal).
