INSTALLATION – SOLAR CONTROL UNIT

Note:

The solar control unit automatically controls the flow rate through the collector circuit. This is achieved

via the hot and cold sensors and differential controller programming providing control over the operation of
the circulator. There is no provision for nor is adjustment to the solar control unit required.
