Triple Solar assembly instruction PVT heat pump panels UK January 2021
Attention:
Never pressurize the system with drinking water. You will never empty the system
100% and the remaining drinking water will affect the glycol ratio in the system. The
warranty provided by Triple Solar (and Nibe) expires with immediate effect.
Flushing
•
Flush the installation with the same liquid medium as will be used when the installation is
in operation (i.e. not with water or another type of glycol).
•
Use a flushing pump/filling station for this purpose (See figure 10.1-a).
•
The filling station is connected downstream to the flushing unit installed near the heat
pump
•
Each individual loop is flushed with at least 1m3/h flow rate. Dirt particles are carried along
and removed from the pipe system.
Attention:
Check the filter of the filling machine and the filter in the pipework. Clogging can
cause too low a flow.
Filling and venting
•
After flushing, the field is completely filled and pressurized with glycol.
•
Venting has to be done properly
System pressure at heat pump
2,4 bar
System pressure on the roof
Pressure on the roof relative to the pressure
at the heat pump is 0.1 bar per altimeter
lower.
Pre-pressure expansion vessel
0.5 bar below the working pressure on site
Commissioning the heat pump (IBS)
The commissioning (IBS) of the heat pump is carried out by the heat pump supplier or by Triple
Solar. This is only possible after the heat pump has run for a sufficient number of hours, including
a number of starts, so that the operation can be checked. This is usually after 2 to 3 weeks.
Triple Solar carries out the IBS and makes the correct settings in the heat pump. Make an
appointment with our engineer via [email protected].
