Installation
These instructions describe the solar panel fastening and the hy-
draulic connection of the pressure-less Solaris system as well as
the associated electrotechnical measures.
All assembly information for the sub-construction or the roof
integration of the ROTEX Solaris flat solar panels are given in the
respective quick instructions which accompany the
●
roof-mounted assembly packages
●
in-roof assembly packages
●
flat roof assembly packages
.
4.1
Transport and storage
4.1.1 Transport
The ROTEX Solaris flat solar panels are delivered on a pallet,
wrapped in film. All industrial trucks, such as lifting trucks and
forklift trucks, are suitable for transporting it. Other ROTEX So-
laris components are delivered packaged separately.
4.1.2 Storage
The following should be taken into account when storing ROTEX
Solaris system components:
●
All components should be stored in dry and frost-protected
rooms only.
●
Dismantled hydraulic components must be completely
drained before being stored.
●
Components must not be stored until they have cooled down.
●
Current-carrying components must be permanently isolated
from the power supply before storage (switch off fuses and
main switches, remove cables) and must be secured against
inadvertent restarting.
●
The components must be stored in such a way that persons
are not endangered by them.
The regulations in the respective documentation for other heating
components apply for transport and storage of these products.
All steps in these instructions are described using an
example of a single row solar panel array with double-
sided connection (solar return flow at bottom left, solar
inflow at top right). For double-sided connection with
reverse hydraulic connection (solar return flow at bottom left,
solar inflow at top left), the steps must be carried out in a similar
way.
The gradient of the solar panel array must always be aligned to
the bottom connection. With same-side connection, the solar
panel array (bottom edge) must be aligned exactly horizontal.
CAUTION!
The ROTEX Solaris flat solar panels are imper-
vious to slight mechanical loading. However,
impact, shock and walking on them should be
avoided.
●
ROTEX Solaris flat solar panels should be
transported and stored with care in their
original packaging only and this packaging
should not be removed until shortly before
installation.
●
ROTEX Solaris flat solar panels should be
stored and transported flat on even and dry
supports.
– Transport with forklift trucks or cranes is
only allowed if on pallets.
– Up to 10 flat solar panels can be stacked
and transported on top of each other.
