  • Page 7: General Information

    About these instructions These instructions describe the installation, commissioning, function and operation of the TRIGON ST1 Solar Pump Station. The chapters called [installer] are intended for installers only. For other components of the solar thermal system such as collectors, tanks, expansion vessels and controllers, please refer to the instructions for that component.
  • Page 8: Designated Use

    1 General information Designated use The solar station may only be used as a pump station in the solar circuit taking into consideration the technical limit values indicated in these instructions. Due to its design the station must be mounted and operated as described in these instructions! Improper usage excludes any liability claims.
  • Page 9: Safety Instructions

    2 Safety instructions 2 Safety instructions The installation and commissioning as well as the connection of electrical components require technical knowledge commensurate with a recognised vocational qualification as a fitter for plumbing, heating and air conditioning technology, or a profession requiring a comparable level of knowledge [installer].
  • Page 10 2 Safety instructions CAUTION Personal injury and damage to property due to overpressure! By closing the two ball valves in the primary circuit you isolate the pressure relief valve from the heat exchanger. A rise in temperature in the storage tank will cause high pressures and could result in personal injury or damage to property! ...

    3 Assembly and installation [installer] 3 Assembly and installation [installer] NOTICE Material damage due to high temperatures! Install the at a sufficient distance from the collector field, since the solar fluid may pump station be very hot near the collector. It may be necessary to install an intermediate tank in order to protect the expansion vessel.
  • Page 12 3 Assembly and installation [installer] 5. Connect the solar station to the installation: flow from the collector field return to the collector field flow to the storage tank return from the storage tank 6. Connect the pipe for the expansion vessel below the pressure gauge [1.5] and fix the bracket for the expansion vessel.
  • Page 13 3 Assembly and installation [installer] WARNING Risk to life and limb due to electric shock!  Prior to commencing electrical work on the controller, disconnect the mains plug from the mains  Only after completing all installation work, flushing and filling, plug the mains plug of the controller into a socket! This avoids an unintentional start of the motors.

    4 Commissioning [installer] 4 Commissioning [installer] Observe the following safety instructions regarding the commissioning of the station: WARNING Risk of burning and scalding! The fittings can heat up to more than 100 °C. Therefore, do not clean or fill the system with the collectors heated (intense sunshine).
  • Page 15: Flushing And Filling The Solar Circuit

    4 Commissioning [installer] Flushing and filling the solar circuit The fill and drain valves required to flush and fill are integrated in the solar station. To flush the dirt particles out of the installation, only use flush and fill stations with fine filters. Ball valve with integrated flow check valve (1.2 and 5.2) (normal flow direction in the figure below: downwards) 0°...
  • Page 16 4 Commissioning [installer] De-aerator The de-aerator with manual vent valve is used to vent the solar installation. To ensure perfect deaeration of the solar circuit, the flow velocity must be at least 0.3 m/s in the flow line. Pipe diameter [mm] Flow rate at 0.3 m/s ∅...
  • Page 17: Preparations Before Flushing

    4 Commissioning [installer] Preparations before flushing The solar circuit is flushed in the direction of flow. 1. Disconnect the expansion vessel from the solar installation. Please observe the instructions of the manufacturer. 2. Turn the check valve in the flow ball valve [5.2] to operating position (0°, see page 12).
  • Page 18 4 Commissioning [installer] 3. To vent the pump stroke, slowly open the return ball valve [1.2] (0°, see page 12). 4. Close the drain valve [3.2] with the filling pump running and increase the system pressure to max. 5 bars. The system pressure can be read on the pressure gauge.
  • Page 19 4 Commissioning [installer] WARNING Risk to life and limb due to electric shock!  Check if the sensors and the pumps are properly connected to the controller and if the controller housing is closed. Only then should the mains plug of the controller be plugged into a socket. 10.

  • Page 26 8 Function check valves [installer] Do you need to know it exactly? The density of the solar fluid decreases with rising temperature. In high installations with large temperature differences, the difference in density will cause gravity circulation. This circulation can cool down the storage tank. Calculation example: Δp = Δρ...
