Secure all external connectors with the collector connection clip.

!

Material losses:
All external connectors must be secured with a collector 
connection clip. Failure to do so will cause rapid depres-
surization of the solar loop during the charging procedure 
and require repair and reconnection of the connectors.

4  1˝ male connector
5 Plug connector

On the connection side where the hot fl uid exits the collector array, 
install a threaded connector in the top collector connection and a 
plug connector in the bottom collector connection.

 WARNING:

 Burns

Once the collectors are installed, they will begin to heat 
up even during cloudy days. Covering the collectors with 
an opaque material will make working around and with 
the collectors easier during the  installation.

 Temperature sensor installation

Install a temperature sensor into the sensor well of the collector 
where the fl uid exits the array and returns to the system heat exch-
anger. Secure the temperature sensor so that it will not become 
dislodged from the sensor well accidentally.
