9. Connecting UniverSol Collector
to Feed & Return Lines
The following steps should be followed only if the UniverSol collector
is replacing an existing collector on the ends of a bank:
1.
The feed line will be connected to the low end of the bottom header as previously
connected to the existing collector bank. The return line will be connected to the
top header as previously connected to the existing collector bank.
2.
If attaching a feed or return line to a UniverSol panel, attach the (2-1810-005)
pipe connector to the panel header using the (2-1810-004) plastic panel clamp
as described in the section – Connecting UniverSol Collector with Hose Adaptor.
3.
Cement the PVC pipe to the (2-1810-005) pipe connector as shown in Fig. 9.1.
4.
The (2-1810-005) Pipe Connector allows (1) ½" PVC Pipe or a (1) ½" St. 90
to be cemented directly into the socket, or a 2" PVC 90 to be cemented on the
outside. CPVC or multi-purpose cement should be used when attaching PVC
fittings or pipe to the pipe connectors to provide for a durable connection.
5.
Attach the (2-1810-013) end caps on the corners opposite the
feed and/or return lines using the (2-1810-004) panel clamps.
