Covering the collector

Commission the solar thermal system as quickly as
possible once the collectors have been installed.
To reliably prevent steam hammer, the collectors must
be cold when filled. Cover the collector arrays.
In the delivered condition, the collectors are covered
with a protective film for this purpose. Remove this
protective film no later than 4 weeks following col-
lector installation.

Installation

!
Please note
Incorrect installation can lead to collector dam-
age.
Use only gunmetal or brass fittings and copper
pipes for the installation.
Never step on the collectors.
Never solder on or near the collectors.
