  • Page 6: Support Frame

    2.2. Support Frame There are two sets of support frames for a single collector (EST1) or for two collectors (EST2). Depending on the bank of solar collectors chosen, the appropriate number of support frames will be provided for one or two collectors. Table 1 shows the sets of support frames necessary for different banks of solar collectors.

    Figure 4. Support frame components EST2 for two solar collectors The support frames allow the installation of the solar collectors with different inclinations (45, 40, 35 or 30 degrees) using the same profiles and accessories, by choosing properly the fixing holes. 2.3.

    3. Placement of the Collectors The choice of location, inclination and orientation of the solar collectors has to be determined at the design stage of the installation. The installation of the solar collectors in the building should be carried out respecting the instructions of the person in charge of the project, who should have taken into consideration the effect of the orientation, inclination and possible shadows in the calculation of benefits of the solar system.

    1 to 6 units and for different angles of inclination. Additionally, there should be sufficient space around the banks of collectors to perform with comfort the hydraulic connections. Figure 7. A Single Collector TYPE S150 960mm S200 960mm S230...

  • Page 13: Flat Roof Installation

    5. Flat Roof Installation Next it will be described the procedure for installing a bank of two solar collectors on a flat roof. The formation of more banks of collectors is done simply by adding the support frames EST1 or EST2 when necessary. 5.1.

    5.2. Installation of the vertical legs A3 and the Long cross pieces X1/X2 Place the two long crosspieces X1 or X2 forming an X, with the convex part of the profiles and link them into contact with each other through a bolt M10x20 with nut and washer, without tighten it yet.

    5.3. Installation of the vertical legs A3 and the longitudinal profiles D3 Lift the legs A3 coupled with the X formed with the long crosspieces X1 or X2 until you place them vertically. Lift the rear part of the longitudinal profiles D3 coupled with the cross profiles E1 or E2 and join to the vertical legs A3, using two holes depending on the inclination that should be given to the collectors (Fig.
  • Page 16: Placement Of Solar Collectors

    5.4. Placement of Solar Collectors Place one of the solar collectors in the support frame, place it first on the lower profile cross-E1 or E2 and then on the higher profile cross- E1 or E2. Adjust the position of the solar collector in the structure, so that matches the holes in the structure of the holes in the rear part of the collector (Figure 17).

    6. Tile roof installation The assembly of solar collectors on a tile roof is done in a manner similar to that described above, with a different position of the vertical legs A3 that have to be placed horizontally underneath the E1/E2 in a parallel manner. The crosspieces X1 or X2 and X3 shorts are not needed for tile roof installation.
  • Page 18 In each group of solar collectors two stop valves should be installed at the entrance and exit to allow the hydraulic isolation of the rest of the circuit and a safety valve (figure 20). The solar collectors reach high temperatures, especially in periods of great sunshine and low energy consumption, which can cause significant expansion of the materials.
  • Page 19 Figure 21. The pipes must be insulated according to existing regulations. The thickness of the insulation material must be at least 30 mm for a material with conductivity equal to 0.040 W/mºK. The insulation material must be capable of withstanding pipe surface temperatures higher than 120 °...
  • Page 20: Lightning Protection

    The primary circuit of the solar collectors must have at least a thermometer and a manometer to permit recording of the temperature and the pressure of the circuit. Before the final filling of the primary circuit, internal washing with domestic water should be carried out to remove any dirt or rests and pressure test should be carried out to verify the sealing of all, without exceeding the maximum pressure allowed by solar collectors.
  • Page 21: Care And Maintenance Program

    10. Care and Maintenance Program • The collectors should be subject to periodic visual inspections. If it appears that excessive dirt has been accumulated on the glass of the collectors, then it must be cleaned. This operation should take place during the morning, before 10:00 am or in the afternoon after the 18:00 pm, checking before that the collectors are not too hot.
