    General Information 1 General Information Carefully read these instructions before installation and commissioning. Save these instructions in the vicinity of the installation for future reference. 1.1 About these instructions These instructions describe the function, installation, commissioning and operation of the return stations SolarBloC®...
  • Page 4: Designated Use

    Due to its design, the station may only be installed and operated as described in these instructions! Only use PAW accessories with the solar station. Improper usage excludes any liability claims.
  • Page 5: Safety Instructions

    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 [specialist].
  • Page 6 Safety instructions CAUTION Personal injury and material damage due to overpressure! Closing both ball valves in the primary circuit will separate the safety group from the heat exchanger. A rise in temperature in the storage tank may result in high pressures, which may lead to personal injury and material damage! Only close the ball valves for service and maintenance.
  • Page 7: Mounting And Installation [Specialist]]

    Mounting and installation [specialist]] 3 Mounting and installation [specialist]] NOTICE Material damage due to high temperatures! Since the solar fluid near the collector can be very hot, the group of fittings must be installed at a sufficient distance from the collector field. It may be necessary to install an intermediate tank in order to protect the expansion tank.
  • Page 8 Mounting and installation [specialist]] 1. Remove the station from the packaging. 2. Remove the insulating front shell. 3. Only for version with Wilo Para MAXO pump / Grundfos Solar PML pump: Mount the enclosed safety group for completion and prior to commissioning.
  • Page 9 Mounting and installation [specialist]] 6. Connect the solar station to the installation by using the pipes ① Return to the collector field ③ Return from the storage tank All thread connections have ¾" internal threads for DN 20 and 1" internal threads for DN 25. 7.
  • Page 10: Commissioning [Specialist]

    Commissioning [specialist] 4 Commissioning [specialist] Please observe the following safety instructions regarding the commissioning of the station: WARNING Risk of burning and scalding! The valves and fittings may heat up to more than 100 °C. Therefore, do not clean or fill the system when the collectors are hot (intense sunshine).
  • Page 11: Flushing And Filling The Solar Circuit

    Commissioning [specialist] 4.1 Flushing and filling the solar circuit The fill and drain valves necessary to flush and fill the installation are integrated in the solar station. Make sure not to wash dirt particles that may be present in the solar installation into the expansion tank.
  • Page 12 Commissioning [specialist] Functions of the fill and drain valve within the safety group Position Function Position "closed" (station in operation): Fill and flush circuit is closed. Pressure gauge indicates system pressure. Position "open" (fill and flush processes): Fill and flush circuit is open. Pressure gauge indicates pressure. Position "maintenance"...
  • Page 13: Preparations Before Flushing

    Commissioning [specialist] 4.2 Preparations before flushing The solar circuit is flushed in the direction of flow. 1. Disconnect the expansion tank from the solar system. Observe the separate instructions for the expansion tank! 2. Close the return ball valve [1.2] (90°, see chapter 4.1).
  • Page 14 Commissioning [specialist] 5. Close the drain valve [3.2] while the filling pump is running and increase the system pressure to about 5 bars. The system pressure is displayed on the pressure gauge. Close the fill valve [1.4] by turning it into position "closed" (see chapter 4.1) and switch off the pump of the flush and fill station.
  • Page 15: Setting The Solar Installation

    Commissioning [specialist] 4.4 Setting the solar installation 1. Set the desired revolution speed of the solar pump depending on the required flow rate. If necessary, the flow rate can be reduced by the ball valve [3.1] (only necessary if the pump is not speed-controlled).
  • Page 16: Maintenance [Specialist]

    Maintenance [specialist] 5 Maintenance [specialist] WARNING Risk of burning and scalding! The valves and fittings and the solar fluid can have temperatures of more than 100 °C. The solar fluid may escape as vapour and result in scalding. Perform maintenance work only when the collector temperatures are ►...
  • Page 17: Draining The Solar System

    Maintenance [specialist] 5.2 Draining the solar system 1. Switch off the controller and secure it against being switched on again. 2. Open the check valve in the return ball valve [1.2] by turning the ball valve into position 45° (see chapter 4.1). Open the check valve possibly present in the flow line.
  • Page 18: Deinstallation

    Maintenance [specialist] 5.3 Deinstallation 1. Drain the solar installation as described in the previous chapter. 2. Disconnect the pipe connections to the solar installation. 3. To remove the solar station from the mounting plate, pull out the clip springs laterally with a screwdriver. 4.

    Function of the check valves [Expert] 8 Function of the check valves [Expert] The check valves in this station prevent unwanted gravity circulation within their range of use. The functioning of the check valves depends: on the system height ● on the temperature difference between storage tank and collector ●...
  • Page 29 Function of the check valves [Expert] Do you need to know it exactly? The density of the solar fluid strongly decreases with increasing temperature. In systems of high system heights and with large temperature differences, the difference in density causes gravity circulation.
