FA ROTEX Solaris RPS3 P2 - 06/2012
2.2
Brief description
The ROTEX solar system is a thermal system for generating hot water and heating support.
Mode of operation
The V21P, V26P and H26P high-performance flat solar panels convert the sun's radiation into heat with high efficiency. The heat-
transfer medium in the solar panel system is a frost-proof water-glycol mixture, and tap water in the tank circulation system.
As soon as the solar panels have reached a useful temperature level, the liquid in the panel system is pumped through the pressure
station and the plate heat exchanger. The feed pump of the Solaris RPS3 P2 control and pump simultaneously pumps the
unpressurised buffer water in the domestic hot water storage tank through the plate heat exchanger where it absorbs the heat
given off by the solar panel circuit.
Modular design
The system consists of several mainly pre-assembled modules. Plug-in technology and a high degree of pre-assembly ensure fast
and simple installation.
Storage tank
The following can be used as storage tanks for the ROTEX solar system:
– ROTEX Sanicube Solaris: Thermally insulated, non-pressurised plastic storage cylinder.
– ROTEX Hybridcube: Thermally insulated, non-pressurised plastic storage cylinder.
– ROTEX Gas Solar Unit (GSU): Sanicube Solaris with integrated gas condensing boiler.
Electronic control
The fully-electronic control on the Solaris RPS3 P2 control and pump unit provides optimum utilisation of solar heat energy
(hot water heating, heating support) and compliance with all operating safety aspects. All parameters needed for trouble-free
operation have been preset at the factory.
