HeaT Transfer fluiD
Solar panel collectors and system components should be used only
with the recommended heat transfer fluid as supplied in the kit.
Recommended fluid is supplied as:
10 Lt Container - Part No. UIN 206536
20 Lt Container - Part No. UIN 206537
25 Lt Container - Part No. UIN 206538
The heat transfer fluid uses a proven concentration of anti-
freeze and water to give protection against freezing and provide
optimum performance from the solar panel collectors and system
components. Additional fluid can be obtained via Ideal Solar
stockists.
The fluid is pre-mixed to 60% concentration and is suitable for flat
plate and vacuum tube collectors.
