er believes to be conducive to
harmful danger and/or material
damage, will be signalled with a
danger sign.
For a better characterization of
the danger, the symbol will be
followed by one of these words:
• DANGER: when there is the
possibility of harm to the op-
erator and/or people in the
vicinity of the equipment.
• WARNING: when there is
the possibility of material
damage to the equipment
and/or attached materials.
All the information that the sup-
plier believes to be an asset for

ervation of the equipment, will
be signalled together with the
information sign.
1.2 . Pre-installation Information
1.3 . Safety information
WARNING / DANGER
The electrical installation of the equipment
must comply with the national regulations
for electrical installations in eect.
ECOTOP will only operate after receiving
its load of coolant.
The maximum water pressure into the hy-
draulic circuit inlet is 0.3 Mpa and the min-
imum pressure is 0.1 MPa.
The power supply is 230 V, 50 Hz, and the
power supply cable is plugged into a sock-
et with earth wiring.
If the power supply cable is damaged, it
must be replaced by the manufacturer, by
its customer service, or by sta with similar
training in order to avoid any danger.
ECOTOP will only operate if the storage
water heater is lled with water.

• The supplier recommends at least
one annual inspection to the equip-
ment, by a qualied technician;
• Cleaning and maintenance must not
be carried out by children unless
they are under supervision.
High pressure and temperature:
• The principle for running this equip-
ment is directly linked to high tem-
perature and pressure; thus, the
processes that imply contact with
the equipment must be thought out
with caution to prevent the risk of
burns and projection of material.

3. SPECIFICATIONS
3.1. Running principle
The thermodynamic solar system ECO, is
an equipment based upon the principle of
cooling by compression – Principle of Car-
not – which we designate Thermodynamic
Solar Systems: solar panel and heat-pump.
The solar panel, the main component,
placed outside, is in charge of collecting the
energy from:
• Diuse and direct solar radiation.
• External air, by natural convection.
• The wind eect (almost invariably
available).
• Rainwater.
The temperature gradient caused by the ex-
ternal agents mentioned, ensures the klea
(ecological cooling uid) will evaporate in-
side the solar panel.
The absence of glass in the panel allows for
an increased thermal exchange by convec-
tion.
After circulation in the panel, the klea is as-
pirated by the system’s mechanical compo-
nent, the compressor, which will increase its
temperature and pressure; it is then trans-
ferred to the water circuit through a heat
exchanger.
Before the Klea returns to the solar panel it
is necessary that there should be a narrow-
ing, that is, reduce the pressure and ensure
that it is again in a liquid state, thus com-
pleting the cycle.
The easy way we combine technology with
a law of Nature (change of state of a u-
id), demonstrates the true potential of the
Thermodynamic Solar System - ECO.

3.5. Safety and Control Devices
3.5.1. Pressure gauge of high/low
pressure
In case of running outside the range of
pressures recommended and dened by
the supplier, the equipment will switch o
and indicate error in the electronic panel.
3.5.2. Safety Thermostat
The safety thermostat is set by the suppli-
er to ensure that the water temperature in
the storage water heater does not exceed
the standard value. Should the temperature
exceed this value, the thermostat switches

3.5.3. Temperature Sensor
The temperature sensor has the purpose
of measuring the values of temperature of
water in the storage water heater in order
to control the thermodynamic solar system.
The R134a is a HFC coolant, thus not harm-
ful to the ozone layer. It has great chemical
and thermal stability, low toxicity, non-in-
ammable, and is compatible with most
materials.
The following graphic depicts the behaviour
of pressure according to temperature vari-
ation.

3.5.4. Protection against corrosion
The storage water heater in this equipment
can be of two types: Stainless steel or Enam-
elled.
Besides being resistant to corrosion, the stor-
age water heater has in addition a magnesi-
um anode that should be checked periodical-
ly according to information by the installer.
3.5.5. Dielectric Joint (except
stainless steel tank)
Your equipment contains two dielectric joint.
These joints prevent electron exchange be-
tween the pipes of water inlet and outlet and
the storage water heater itself. This creates
further protection against corrosion that
could take place between these points.

So the installer must tighten the joints (A)
in the water inlet and outlet (B), be fore at-
taching the piping (C).
3.5.6. Expansion Vessel
The expansion vessel is a device whose pur-
pose is to compensate for the increase in
water volume due to temperature rise.
Installing this device is recom-
mended procedure for a correct
installation of the equipment.
Installing this device is the re-
sponsibility of the installer.
As a general rule it is installed in
the cold water pipe.

3.5.7. Safety Device
The safety device allows the system to be
protected against anomaly situations: cold
water supply, hot water owing back, em
tying the storage water heater and high
pressure. The valve is calibrated to activate
at 0.7 Mpa.
In order to drain the water in the storage
water heater, you should close the supply
valve and open the discharge valve.
The safety valve discharge pipe must be
open into the atmosphere, because the va
ve may drip water or even discharge water.
The safety valve must be opened regular-
ly to remove impurities and check that it is
not blocked. The discharge pipe must be in-
stalled in a vertical position.

The installation of the safety
group ought to take into ac-
count the correct direction of
the hydraulic ow.
The correct direction is repre-
sented by an arrow on the com-
ponent itself.
An incorrect installation rep-
resents a danger to both the
equipment and personnel.
DANGER
3.5.8. Pressure Reducing Valve
The pressure reducing valve must always be
installed upstream from the safety device,
and ready to activate in situations when the
pressure in the circuit exceeds 3 bar.
This valve comes with a pressure gauge.
4. INSTALLATION
Assembly sequence:
• Solar panel
• Storage water heater
• Thermodynamic block
• Cooling connection (aspiration, liquid)
• Hydraulic connections
• Electric connections
• Nitrogen load
• Vacuum
• Installation start-up
4.1. Attachment of Panel
The nature of the site and the inclination an-
gle where the panels are installed are impor-
tant factors to take into account. In order to
benet the most from the sunlight exposure,
the panels.
Should have a pitch between 100and 850rel-
ative to the horizontal plane, and preferably
oriented to the south.
The panel already comes with 6 holes for M8
in the lateral skirts. The distance between
holes in the place where the panel rests,
should coincide with the holes made in the
panel.
The installation of the pressure
reducing valve ought to take
into account the correct direc-
tion of the hydraulic ow.
The correct direction is repre-
sented by an arrow on the com-
ponent itself.
An incorrect installation rep-
resents a danger to both the
equipment and personnel.

The attachment to at least 6
points (3 higher points and 3
lower points) is mandatory!
The lack of at least one of these
points may cause deformations
in the panel and in some cases
the panel’s displacement from
the installation site.

The system comes with 3 small L-shaped fas-
tenings (side A) and 3 large L-shaped fas-
tenings (side B) that should be attached as
depicted in the picture. The desired pitch of
the panel should be adjusted.painel.
The prole should be attached to the base
(e.g. rooftile) through a plastic bushing and
a self-thread M6 bolt which have been sup-
plied.
The attachment of the panel to the L-shaped
fastenings is done through M6 bolts and its
females and washers.
Attachment of L-shaped fastenings and panel:
[1] Aluminium L-shaped fastening
[2] Plastic Bushing
[3] Self-thread bolt M6x40
