(continued)
IMPORTANT
Install the collector panel so that the rating plate C
side of the first and last collector is on the outside (note
sticker)! If only one collector is to be installed, connect
the piping opposite the rating plate C side. See page 30
for more information.
8. Before inserting interconnection pipe D mark the
middle of the connecting pipe with a marker or a piece
of tape for reference. Insert the interconnection pipe
D into the collector until the brass section is no
longer visible.
IMPORTANT
Interconnecting pipes must be free from damage and
contamination. Lubricate all plug-in joints (O-ring seals) on
the collectors. Use only the special grease supplied with
the connection set.
9. Carefully push the next collector up to the collector
that was just installed. Insert the supply and return
interconnection pipes D (top and bottom) into the
collector headers. Carefully push the collector up
to the spacer lip B of the support brace qQ. Visually
inspect the interconnection pipes D to ensure that
they are centered between the two collectors.
IMPORTANT
Ensure interconnection pipe is centered between
collectors.
10. Click clamping brackets qP into the collector edge
at the top of all supports.
11. Secure the support brace qQ to the next collector
support 1 using the clamping brackets qP between
the second and third, the fourth and fifth supports, etc.
12. The distance between collectors should be no greater
than the width of the spacer lip B on the support
brace which is 1a" (32.8 mm).
13. Tighten all bolts.
