page 31, Detail H
1. Place the conetite connector of the connector (10) assembly into the solar
cold collector connection and screw in the gland nut until it seats firmly
against the collector connection, applying medium pressure with a spanner
to tighten.
2. Place the compression nut (11) and olive (12) over the end of the solar cold
pipe. Position the cold pipe into the connector (10) assembly, seat the
olive (12) and tighten the compression nut (11).
3. Repeat this procedure with the sensor connector (4) assembly to couple the
solar hot pipe to the solar collector (17).
Note: If the installation is on a tiled roof, the orientation of the hot sensor
port and hot sensor probe (when installed) must be angled between the
perpendicular (90°) to the roof to a maximum 30° off perpendicular down the
roof. Refer to
