The solar return is pre assembled, except for the
top elbow.
This allows flexibility in pipe location from the
collector. The silver stop valve is to “bleed“ air
from the collectors when commissioning. The
fitting with the orange band is a high temperature
check valve, and stops water flowing back to the
collectors. Therefore isolating the collectors on the
solar return if required.
The collectors have a simple ½ inch
compression olive / nut for the solar flow, and
return
.
Same as the hot water outlet fitting.
The system has been designed so all fittings to
the tank are on the L H S from the front.
It can take a minimum of 150 mm extra width if
required, with all the copper pipes / sensor being
able to be joined inside this area.
It is recommended that the fittings are located in
the 9 O,Clock position for ease of installation,
and maintenance.
The front of the tank is 6, the rear is 12, and
the R H S is the 3 O,Clock position
