Construction and function
The main component of the Vitosol 100-F is
the black chrome coated copper absorber. It
ensures high absorption of solar radiation
and low emission of thermal radiation. A
meander-shaped copper pipe, through which
the heat transfer medium flows, is
permanently embedded into the absorber.
The heat transfer medium channels the
absorber heat through the copper pipe. The
absorber is encased in a highly insulated
collector housing, which minimizes collector
heat losses. The high quality thermal
insulation provides temperature stability and
is free from gas emissions.
The cover consists of a solar glass panel
with a very low iron content, thereby
reducing reflection losses. The solar glass is
3.2 mm thick, making it very resistant to
weather influences. The glass is set into
the collector frame with a continuous
Thermal insulation made from mineral
fiber
Non-coated aluminum frame sections
Back panel made from aluminum-zinc
coated sheet steel
profiled seal, preventing water from
penetrating into the collector. This ensures a
long and reliable service life for all internal
components.
The collector housing consists of a
non-coated aluminum frame into which the
solar glass is permanently sealed.
Up to twelve collectors can be joined quickly
and easily to form a single collector array.
For this, the standard equipment includes
flexible connection pipes, sealed with
O-rings (see picture below).
A connection kit with clamping ring fittings
enables the collector array to be quickly
connected to the pipes of the solar circuit.
The collector temperature sensor is installed
in the solar circuit flow using a sensor well
set.
Collector may not be exactly as shown.

*4 In sealed systems, operating pressure of at least 22 psig + 0.45 psig x static head (ft.) / 1.5 bar + 0.1 bar x static head (m) must be
present in the collectors in cold condition.
