Installation Manual for SB32-9PV and SB64-9PV
Place the 3/8" compression nuts
on the fitting body finger tight.
Insert the copper tubes into the
ports as shown, until they bottom
out.
Using a 5/8" and a 11/16" wrench,
tighten the nuts one full turn.
IMPORTANT: The 11/16" wrench is required to prevent the
fitting body from rotating while turning the nut with the 5/8"
wrench.
As of January 2010, S Series collectors are equipped with
Bulkhead Union locking plates. This eliminates the need
for an 11/16” wrench.

the back of the PV panel is at the top.
Make sure both aluminum angle brackets
are securely fastened to the photovoltaic
module.
Grounding: The photovoltaic module is
inherently grounded through the mount-
ing hardware attached to the solar collec-
tors.
