Maintenance
Distribution Dish Level Setting
The SolarBee distributor dish depth in the water is
a key factor in maintaining the near-laminar flow of
water coming off the machine.
The distribution dish level setting is measured
from the top lip of the dish up to the water surface.
For this SB2500 , the depth level should fall on or
between this range:
3/4 inch to 1 inch (2.0 cm - 2.5 cm)
Distribution Dish Level Adjustment
TOOLS RECOMMENDED:
Tape Measure
STEP 1:
If SolarBee is not on, turn the On/Off
switch to the On position.
STEP 2:
Observe if the dish level is too deep or
not deep enough at the three locations where
each float arm extends out from the machine.
This can be done using a tape measure, by
approximating the height of a nickel, or locating
the notch on each chain bracket for machines
having a hose. If using the notch on each chain
bracket, the water level should be even with the
appropriate notch (see picture).
STEP 3:
Set the dish to the correct level in each
of the three locations. To raise the dish level,
rotate the turnbuckle around (clockwise) so that it
is expanding. To lower the dish level, rotate the
turnbuckle around (counter-clockwise) so that it is
compressing.
STEP 4:
Double check dish level at all three
locations and fine tune as necessary.
