Installation instruction
of the flat solar collectors models ES1V2.0, ES1V2.65,
ES2V/2.0 AL, ES2V/2.65
integrated in the slate roof.
1. Introduction
Lightning protection
In case the height at which the collectors are to be installed exceeds 20 metres
and a building is not equipped with the lightning protection it is necessary to
connect all electrically conducting elements with an earth rod (minimal earth
rod cross-section – 16mm
2
), and then with a compensating potential.
In case the height at which the collectors are to be installed does not exceed
20 metres it is not necessary to provide the lightning protection.
If the building is equipped with the lightning protection it is important to
check the connection of the solar system to the lightning protection. That task
should be performed by an electrician.
Recycling
Completely used up solar collectors can be returned to the manufacturer.
The returned solar collectors shall be utilized by the manufacturer in the way
which is the least burdensome for the natural environment.
2. Safety during installation
Before commencing the installation work it is necessary to immediately
get acquainted with the safety tips!
2.1. Notes included in the instruction.
The installation instruction includes important information concerning safety
and proper positioning of the collectors on the roof as well as the correct
execution of the hydraulic connection. Drawings and information included in
the instruction apply to a vertical installation of the collectors.
Installation of the collators can only be performed by qualified personnel with
professional experience in the field of water supply and gas systems.
Upon completion of works an installer should hand over the installation
instruction to a customer and clearly explain the principles of operation and
directions essential to a proper operation of the solar system.
2.2 Application
This instruction includes a description of an vertical assembly set to carry out
the installation of solar collectors (vertically and horizontally) on the roof
with the inclination ranging from 30
o
up to 65
o
.
The assembly set shall exclusively be used to perform the installation of solar
collectors, it must not be used to install different devices on the roof.
Installation of only solar collectors on the supporting structure guarantees its
safety of operation.
