Number of Collectors (1 collector = 4 sections of 1 ft each)
Appendix 1:
Pressure Losses in PSI for 8’, 10’ and 12’
Enersol solar panel
Example:
To read values on table match the panel size
(collector) width (top) with the flow rate (left side),
the number at the intersection represent pressure
losses of the panel expressed in PSI. i.e. A pool
solar panel array of 20 feet wide (5 panels) by 8 feet
long will have a pressure loss of 1.54 PSI at 30 GPM
Important:
Shaded numbers on the tables indicates
excessive pressure losses on the panels. Care must
be taken not to exceed panel capacity by means of
restricting the flow going to the panels or by splitting
the array as per recommendations.
