Installation instructions
General warnings and warnings of carriage
The mounting system is only suitable for roofs with tiled roofing. Installation can be performed only by specialized
personnel. All work in this guide apply only to such specialized personnel. When installing in principle be used the
supplied material. Before installation and operation of solar collectors with a view to inform the applicable local rules
and regulations. When transporting the collector is advised to use the conveyor belt. The collector may not be lifted for
a connection or threaded screw connections. Avoid shock and mechanical impact on the collector, especially for solar
glass, rear wall and pipe connections.
Statics – roof with tiled roofing
Installation may be done only on flat roofs or bearing constructures with sufficient capacity. Before mounting the
collectors should definitely check the static load capacity of the roof or bearing constructure, in each case the call
should be static, to examine local and regional features. In doing so, it is necessary to pay particular attention to the
quality (wood) of bearing constructure - strength bolting consolidating assembly plant collect
ors. Inspection of the
structures collectors at their place of installation according to DIN 1055, part 4 and 5 or under the law of the country is
necessary especially in areas with high snow precipitation (note: 1 m
3
of snow dust ~ 60 kg / 1 m
3
of wet sno
w ~ 200 kg)
or in areas with strong winds. It should be taken of all the specific location of installation of equipment (warm Alpine
wind, the effects of flow turbulence wind, etc.) that could result in an increased burden on the device. When selecting
the installation site must be ensured in order for not to exceed the maximum loads or forces acting due to wind or snow
precipitation. In principle, the collector arrays have to be installed so that if any snow accumulation in the catchment
grid (or accumulated due to the specific situation of the installation) can not reach the collector. Collectors may not be
installed on the roof edge (it should be observed marginal zone E/10 on flat roofs according to EN 1991, at least 1 m).
The upper edge of the collector shall not protrude above the roof.
Installation of a solar collector field represents interference in the (existing) roof. Roofing such as tiles,
shingles and slate, especially furnished and habitable attic or roofs with insufficient slope (with respect to their
roofing) requires the implementation of construction protections (for example support construction) as a hedge
against the ingress of water due to wind pressure and drifting snow.
Protection against lightning / settlement potential building
In accordance with current standards for protection against lightning ÖVE / ÖNORM EN 62305 part 1-4, the collector
array may not connect the lightning conductor buildings. It is necessary to keep a safety distance min. 1 m from
possible neighboring conductive object. For mounting on a metal support structure is generally necessary to consult
with a qualified electrician. In order to realize the potential of settlement building by an authorized electrician must
connect metal pipe solar circuit as well as all caps or holders of collectors with the main rail for bonding in accordance
with standard ÖVE / ÖNORM E 8001-1 or standards applicable in the country.
Connections
Collectors must be interconnected, depending on their design screw connections (1 "IG / AG) or by connecting
pipe so that the surfaces of joints sealed. It is necessary to ensure the proper imposition of gaskets. If you are not
connecting elements as scheduled no flexible hoses, it must be ensured in order to have the connecting pipes take
appropriate steps to compensate for thermal expansion due to temperature fluctuations, for example.: Expansion bends
and flexible pipes (see link collectors / operational recommendations). For larger collector fields is necessary to insert
the expansion bends or flexible joints (Attention: need to check the sizing of the pump). When tightening the
connections necessary to follow from the other side (control) or other tick-key, to avoid damage to the absorber.
Inclination angle / general information
The collector is suitable for slope min. 15 ° max. 75 °. Connections collectors and ventilating / air vent openings should
be protected from water penetration and dirt and dust ingress, etc.
Warranty
The warranty arises only use the original means of frost protection from the supplier and properly carried out
installation, commissioning and maintenance. A precondition for entitlement to guarantee the installation of qualified
personnel, without exception, adherence to instructions in the manual.
