Solar thermal systems are usually filled with water or water-
glycol-mixtures as the heat transfer fluid.The filling and
flushing station allows quick and clean filling of solar thermal
systems with the heat transfer fluid.

• For your own safety, always use a residual current device
(RCD)whichstopsthepumpimmediatelyinthecaseof
a malfunction.
• Extensions cable must have at least the same cross
sectional area as the pump cable.When the cable is longer
than 20 m, the extension cable must be stronger than the
pump cable. Disregarding these instructions may lead to the
destruction of the windings – no liability claims!
2. Electrical connection
Please carry out the following steps before flushing the store
for initial commissioning or before flushing and filling the
solar thermal system:
