Notes prior to the installation start
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 about the local engineer standards and
regulations.
Components of the collectors can reach temperatures of more
than
200 °C, there is a danger of burning and scalding! Furthermore
it has to be checked whether there are any load sources in
the area of the collector eld which may produce chemically
aggressive mediums. In condensate dissolved acids and bases
may cause permanent damage to the collector components.
Throughout the installation of a solar collector you directly
intervene into an existing roof cladding. Di󰀨erent roof coverings
such as tile, shingles or slate require additional measures (e.
g. sarkings) as a security against the ingress of moisture due
to rain or snow - especially in case of extended and occupied
top oors or in case of insu󰀩cient roof pitches (concerning the
covering).
Information on foliation
If the collectors are mounted with foil, this foil must be removed
from the collectors at the latest 3 months after delivery. After
that, residue-free removal can no longer be guaranteed.
The date of the delivery note counts.

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°.
The recommended heat transfer medium is a mixture of
glycol and water, e. g. Tyfocor L or similar. The collectors
must never be operated or tested with water under pressure.
To protect the system from overheating during standstill
and accelerated glycole-ageing, a self-draining system
(e. g.STI Drain Master or SolBox) is recommended.
It is necessary to pay attention that the back ow tempe-
rature is never lower than the ambient temperature. If ne-
cessary, take appropriate action (e. g. increase back ow
temperature to at least 30 °C).
To avoid a possible forming of condensate in the collector,
the installation has to be taken into operation hydraulically
within two weeks after termination of the assembly. At low
temperatures, the forming of condensate may cause frost
damages in the collector.
Lightning protection
Please note country-specic legislation!
Throughout the installation of metal fastening systems, a
check has to be done by an authorized qualied electrician.
The metallic pipes of the solar circle are connected with the
earth circuit connector via a copper pipe of at least 16 mm².
Please ensure su󰀩cient ventilation for each assembly
method. Do not close the ventilation openings. Especially
in case of a roof-integrated assembly, the ventilation
of the collector is denitely necessary. Appropriate
ventilation hoods are available from the supplier. Please
pay attention to the regulations of the ZVDH (Germany),
SVDW (Switzerland) as well as di󰀨erent local regulations
concerning the ventilation. If necessary, consult an expert.
Responsibilities
The constructor of the installation is responsible for the in-
tegration of the installation according to the regulations and
for the compliance with safety regulations.
The operator of the installation is responsible for its opera-
tion according to the regulations and for the consultation of
experts in case of problems.
This instruction is not subject to a service of modication. It
does not absolve the manufacturer and operator of the instal-
lation from his resposibilities to install and operate all parts of
the installation according to utmost professional knowledge.
The manufacturer of the installation is responsible for obser-
ving and keeping all appropriate regulations and instructions.
Statics
Before beginning the assembly it is vital to test the roof or
substructure on site for su󰀩cient load-carrying capacity.
Please pay increased attention to the possible durability of
the screw ttings to fasten the collectors as well as to the
quality of the substructure.
According to DIN EN 1991 or rather to the local engineer stan-
dards, it is necessary to check the whole system construction
on site, especially in snowy regions (note: 1m³ powder snow
~ 60 kg / 1 m³ 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 in such a way that a 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 1,1 kN/m² ac-
ting on the collector are permitted.
Transport and stocking
Never store the delivered collectors unprotected at the buil-
ding site.
Always stock the collectors upright and leaning against a solid
surface.
If the collectors are stored outside they must be stood upright
with the backside leaned against the wall (glass forwards).
The collectors must be covered so that neither dust nor water
can enter the collectors.
If it is not possible to stand the collectors upright (e.g. at
roof), the collectors must be stacked with 2 square timbers
between each collector.
Never lay down the collectors onto a rough surface with over-
hanging pieces like stones, timbers etc.
The rigidity of the collectors is limited. During transport to the
building site always ensure a torsion-free transport. In case of
an elevated intermediate storage make sure that the collec-
tors are protected against sliding down.

Collector eld dimensions
Collectors which are mounted side by
side in one row are always connected by
means of stainless steel expansion joints
on the manifolds (see photo).
It is possible to assemble metal sheets between the collectors to achieve a homogeneous appearance of the installation.
The intermediate plates are assembled exclusively for optical aspects and do not have any inuence on the installation.
Therefore the intermediate plates can be ordered optionally and are not necessarily included in delivery.

In case of multi-row installations, the
collectors will always be mounted
on joint on top of each other. The
lip (collector covering) of the upper
collector has to be put onto the lower
collector. The lip (collector covering)
of the lower collector has to be
clamped into the joint area to ensure
an optimum water ow.

Hydraulic connections
Temperature sensor
Each collector has a sleeve for inserting a temperature sensor. The sleeve is directly connected with the absorber. If the
collectors are installed correctly, the sleeve is always located on the top of the collector on the left. The temperature sensor
can be inserted in any collector. Please pay attention to the maximum insertion depth of 4 cm and secure the sensor
against slipping out. Due to the measuring point on the absorber, the temperature measured by the sensor may di󰀨er from
the uid temperature.

Now remove the protective caps for the integrated threaded
sleeves from all concrete blocks.
Afterwards place the base console on the concrete block and
secure them with the enclosed screws M10. All further consoles
have to be oriented exactly in row (e.g. by a line mark).
Afterwards place the concrete block. Pay attention to the exact
observance of the specied clearances between the concrete
blocks. If necessary, the usage of a separation layer between
concrete block and subsurface has to be considered.
The short distance between threaded sleeve and block edge
(10 cm) shows the front of the block. Make sure that every
concrete block is on the same mounting position and aligned in

Assembly collectors
For the assembly of the collectors rst place the outside right
or ouside left collector on top of the mounted and xed base
consoles. When assembling the collector, pay attention that
the outside base console needs to be overlapped about 50%
by the collector.
Before the following collector can be mounted, the hydraulical

When the consoles are ush mounted with the outer collectors
they will be safed with the provided fastening plates from the
„collector fastening set onto support edge“ in conclusion. For
this install the fastening plates at the upper and lower end of
the console in the designated holes.
When necessary, the consoles can be indented up to 20cm
from the collector edge.

Afterwards mount the fastening plate „double“ on the next
console in the upper and lower elongated hole. The nal
xation takes place after the assembly of the next collector.

Assembly collectors
Insert the hydraulical collector connection into the manifold. Pay
attention that both O-rings are mounted. Push the connection
all the way to the stop and fasten it with the locking spring.
At the upper and lower collector connection, the hydraulical
collector connection will be preassembled as to the image
alongside.
Push the next collector towards the already placed collector.
Attention needs to be paid that the compensators are inserted
into the collector manifold properly all the way to the stop.
Pay attention that the fastening plate „double“ hooks into the
collector prole on both sides. Afterwards, secure the fastening
plate.
Finally, mount both outer fastening plates the way as assem-
bled at the rst collector.

Cut rubber tip to be able to insert
temperature sensor
Temperature sensor setting
Assembly temperature sensor base console
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
lip which has to be opened in the middle, using a knife or a
screwdriver, before inserting the sensor.
The insertion depth of the sensor is limited to 4 cm. An additional
protection against slipping out is recommended.
Contingent on the measuring point at the absorber the
temperature sensor may be installed at any desired collector
of the eld.
The error of measurement of the recorded temperature
compared to the uid temperature is ±2 K.
Assembly collectors
Now mount the next collector upon the consoles.

Assembly base console on roof prole
For roof-mounted installations prole sets dependent on the collector type are delivered. For multiple collectors in one row
a connection set is required for each collector transition.
For multiple-row installations the minimum distances between the rows need to be adhered to (see table „row spacing of
collectors“, bottom support dimensions).
Please pay attention that for the assembly of such a system a water-proof roof underneath needs to be built.
For this it is necessary that the designated roof is provided with metal sheets, welding line, or plastic web
from the eave to the crest.
Otherwise melted snow from the collector eld may generate elds of ice. These may spread underneath the
roof cladding and result in possible water damages in rooms below.

Spacing roof hooks
Distance measures roof-tiles
For each horizontal collector two rows of roof-tiles are installed and for vertical collectors three rows of roof-tiles are
necessary. The vertical measurements H are each measured from the top edge of the roof-tile.
If high snow loads can be expected, the roof-tiles have
to be mounted above the rafters (the supportive wood
has to lie on the rafter). Alternatively, an increased
amount of roof-tiles may be considered according to
the load demand.
When the load capacity in the area of the lath is not
given the assembly should happen on top of the rafter.
