Triple Solar assembly instruction PVT heat pump panels UK January 2021

Make sure the air vents remain accessible, also for maintenance

Pipe diameters of source pipes

The pipe diameter is largely dependent on the power of the heat pump. In addition, the total 

length of the pipework, the number of bends and the height difference between the heat pump 

and the panel field are important. The table below provides a guideline for sizing the pipe 
diameters of source pipes. This concerns the minimum diameters of the pipes running to and 

from the panel field, including the fittings. 

After the junctions in the panel field, pipe diameters can be reduced.

Hydraulic plan

See the general hydraulic plan Triple Solar system, Figure 8.3-a 

Fit a 3 bar pressure relief valve or use the supplied expansion vessel connection group (3 bar 

pressure relief valve with automatic air vent).

The  filter  valve  (supplied  with  Nibe  heat  pumps)  must  always  be placed  in  front  of  the 

thermostatic mixing valve (Esbe mixing valve) to prevent the valve from becoming dirty.

The filter valve (supplied with Nibe heat pumps) with the smaller diameter must be placed in 
the cold side of the central heating circuit.

Preferably do not place taps between the roof and the expansion vessel. This to avoid mistakes 

during maintenance. 

For larger fields it is wise to place a valve per row so that each row can be vented.
