Notes before starting assembly
The installation and initial operation must be carried out by an expert
who is responsible for the correct installation and operation.
Before installing and putting the collectors into service, please inform
yourself about the local engineer standards and regulations.
Components of the collectors can reach temperatures over 200 °C,
there is a danger of burning and scalding!
Please check whether there are any load sources in the area of the
collector field that may produce chemically aggressive medium.
In condensate dissolved acids and bases can cause permanent
damage to the collector components.
Throughout the installation of a solar collector you directly
intervene into an existing roof cladding. Different roof coverings
such as tile, shingles or slate require as security against the
ingress of moisture due to rain or snow additional measures (eg
sarkings) - especially in case of extended and occupied top floors
or in case of too less roof pitch (concerning the covering).

Safety regulations, instructions
and guidelines
The substructure as well as its connections to the
building have to be checked on site according to the local
regulations.
The collectors have to be mounted in an angle of at least
20° to max. 70°.
Recommended heat transfer medium is a mixture of glycol
and water, e.g. Tyfocor L or similar The collectors may
never be operated or tested under pressure with water.
To protect the system of overheating during standstill and
accelerated glycole-aging a self-draining system (e.g. STI
Drain Master or Drain Box) is recommended.
It is absolutely necessary to pay attention, that the back flow
temperature is never lower than the ambient temperature. If
necessary, take appropriate action (e.g. increase back flow
temperature to at least 30°C).
Lightning protection
Note country-specific legislation!
Throughout the installation of metal fastening, a check is
needed by an authorized qualified electrician.
The metallic pipes of the solar circle are connected via
a copper pipe of at least 16 mm² with the earth circuit
connector.
Please ensure sufficient ventilation for each assembly
method. Do not close the ventilation openings. Especially
in case of roof-integrated assembly, the ventilation of the
collector is definitely necessary. Appropriate ventilation
hoods are available from the supplier. Pay attention to the
regulations of the ZVDH (Germany), SVDW (Switzerland)
as well as different local regulations concerning the ventila-
tion. If necessary, consult an expert.
Responsibilites
The constructor of the installation is responsible for the in-
tegration of the installation according to regulations and for
compliance with the safety regualtions.
The operator of the installation is responsible for an ope-
ration of the installation according to regulations and for
consultation of experts in case of problems.
This instruction is not subjected to the control of a service of modi-
fications. It does not absolve the manufacturer and operator of the
installation of his responsibilities to install and operate all parts of
the installation according to utmost professional knowledge. The
manufacturer of the installation is responsible to observe and keep
all appropriate regulations and instructions.
Statics
Before beginning the assembly it is vital to test the roof or
substructure on site to sufficient load-carrying capacity.
Pay increased attention to the possible durability of the screw
fittings to fasten the collectors as well as to the quality of the sub-
structure.
According to DIN 1055 part 4 and 5 or rather according to the local
engineer standards it is necessary to check on site the whole sys-
tem construction, especially in snowy regions (note: 1 m² powder
snow ~ 60 kg / 1 m² wet snow ~ 200 kg) as well as in regions with
high wind speed. Before starting the assembly all aspects that
may lead to incorrect load of the whole construction have to be
considered!
Install the collectors the way that backlog of snow (e.g. due to
snow guards or other obstacles) is not possible.
In case of correct assembly snow loads (pressure loads) up to 2
kN/m² and wind loads (suction loads) up to 1 kN/m² acting on the
collector are permitted.
For transport and stocking
Never abandon the delivered collectors unprotected at the building
site. Never lay down the collectors onto a rough surface with over-
hanging pieces like stones, timbers, etc.
Stock the collectors always upright leaning against a solid sur-
face.
The rigidity of the collectors is limited. During transport to the buil-
ding site always ensure a torsion-free transport type. In case of an
elevated intermediate storage make sure that the collectors are
protected against sliding down.

Tighten the screw on the clamp only manually. The usage of
cordless screwdrivers or the like may lead to damages of the thread
of the clamp. Tighten the clamp until the two lugs are superimposed
in the whole length.
Field width
It is possible to assemble metal sheets between the collectors to achieve a homogeneous appearance of the installation.
The distance metal sheets are assembled exclusively for optical aspects and do not have any influence on the installation.
Therefore the distance metal sheets can be ordered optionally and are not necessarily included in delivery.
Collector type
When mounting solar collectors on supports it is important to ensure that the panels are anchored either on a solid surface or
on the concrete blocks shown in this instruction. The available concrete elements are recommended as a weight for locations
up to 700 meters above sea level with leeward situation. With expected higher loads, the weights must be increased. For higher
loads a calculation must be provided, and optionally a reinforcing of the system with additional components. When attaching
the consoles on buildings please ensure that the water tightness is maintained in each case. The mounting of the consoles and
collectors is described on the following pages.

Assembly collectors
For the collector assembly, you first set the rightmost or leftmost
collector on the mounted and fixed consoles. When mounting the
collector ensure that the outer console is covered about 50% by the
collector.
After the exact orientation the collector is fixed on the outside with
fastening plates at the upper and lower elongated hole on the
console.
1400008 Collector fastening set onto support
edge (2 fastening points)
Please note that the remaining fastening plates are to mount on the
opposite outer side.
Before the following collectors can be mounted, the compensator
must be mounted on the concisely protruding flange.
It is important to ensure that the 0-ring seal is used for the
compensator.

Fixation of the compensator on one side with the clamp.
Before tightening the screw the clamp must be positioned by a
rotary motion up and down Tighten the screw on the clamp only
manually. The use of cordless drills or similar may cause damage
to the thread of the clamp. Tighten the clamp until the two lugs
superimpose in the whole length.

Now install the next collector on the consoles.
Move the collector until the fastening plate “double” hooks into the
collector profile. Then fix the fastening plate.
Fix the upper and lower compensator with the clamp.
Before tightening of the screw the clamp must be positioned by
a rotary motion up and down. Tighten the screw on the clamp only
manually. The use of cordless drills or similar may cause damage
on the thread of the clamp. Tighten the clamp until the two lugs
superimpose in the whole length.
Finally, assemble the two outer fastening plates.

15
Temperature sensor
Each collector has a sleeve for inserting a temperature sensor.
The sensor is positioned below the upper left manifold or next to
the label with the description „top“ on the outside of the collector
frame.
The sleeve for inserting the sensor is protected with a silicon
grommet which has to be centrally opened (using a knife or small
screwdriver) before inserting the sensor.
The insertion depth is limited to 4 cm. Furthermore, it is
recommended to protect the sensor against slipping out.
The temperature sensor can be inserted in any collector of
the installation.
The error of measurement of the recorded temperature
compared to the fluid temperature is ± 2 K.

For roof-mounted installations one profile set alu 1400035, 1400026, 1400027 or 1400028 (depending on the collector type)
is delivered for each collector. If several collectors are mounted in one row, for each collector crossing one connection set for
profile set 1400022 is necessary.
For multi-row systems, the minimum distances between rows must be observed (see table “row spacing of collectors,“
bottom support dimensions).
