5. General preparations
- Only handle and store the collector pile using the packing strips and pallets.
- Never move more than 16 collectors in a single pile and never store more
than 24 collectors in a single pile.
- Never move collectors with the glass facing down.
- To prevent damage, never carry collectors at the collector connectors or put
them down on the connectors.
- Never place the collector back onto uneven surfaces.
- Store collectors only in dry places that are free of dust.
- Cover the glass side of the collectors until the collectors are
commissioned.
- We recommend the use of transport handles (available as accessories).
NB
Transport and storage
The following tasks should be carried out
prior to the collectors being moved
onto the roof
(exception: Flat roof installation).
NB:
Fit compensators only to the
short
connectors.
Connect the collectors alternately across (up to 10 collectors).
Prior to joining the connections, check whether the collector seals are inside
each fitting.
When fitting the connection pieces, compensators and plugs, always
counterhold
the union nut on the collector.
Remove the sensor well from the control unit carton and insert into the flow
connector.
Respectively insert 2 M8x30 grub screws fully into the lower tray edge.

Installation
The installation and commissioning must only be carried out by authorised contractors.
This contractor will be responsible for the correct installation and commissioning.
The collector connections, even those of dry collectors, can become very hot during the
installation. Wear protective gloves as there is a risk of injury from burns.
