Heatrae Sadia ELECTROMAX SOLAR Installation & Servicing Instructions Manual page 12

3.3 INSTALLATION - LOCATION
The Electromax Solar must not be sited outside or in any location where it could be exposed
to the weather. It must be installed in a dry and frost free environment.
It must be vertically mounted on a flat, level surface capable of supporting its full weight when
full of water.
Sufficient access must be allowed around the Electromax Solar to allow for removal of the
top and front panels, and for servicing and maintenance (see figure 05).
Consideration should also be given to the location of:
• COLD WATER INLET - this can be from underneath the Electromax Solar or through
knock out panels at the front, bottom on the right hand side. Connection is made by 22mm
compression fitting.
• COLD WATER COMBINATION VALVE - this must be installed in the incoming mains
supply.
• HOT WATER OUTLET- this can be from underneath the Electromax Solar or through
knock out panels at the front, bottom on the right hand side. Connection is made by 22mm
compression fitting.
• HOT WATER DISCHARGE - discharge pipe runs are required from the Temperature and
Pressure Relief Valve on the Electromax Solar and the Expansion Relief Valve on the
Cold water Combination Valve.
• SOLAR COLLECTORS - connections are made at the back, top left hand side of the
Electromax Solar by 22mm compressions fittings.
• SOLAR EXPANSION VESSEL - the solar expansion vessel should be sited as close to the
Electromax Solar as possible, allowing sufficient access for servicing and maintenance.
• SOLAR DIVERTOR VALVE - the solar divertor valve ( East/West models only ) should be
sited as close to the Electromax Solar as possible, allowing sufficient access for servicing
and maintenance.
• SOLAR EXPANSION RELIEF - a container to hold solar fluid discharge should be sited
as close to the Electromax Solar as practicably possible. A pipe run from the Solar Relief
Valve to the container needs to be installed.
• CENTRAL HEATING CONNECTIONS - these can be from underneath the Electromax
Solar or through knock out panels at the front, bottom on the left hand side. Connection
is made by 22mm compression fittings.
• ROOM THERMOSTAT - the room thermostat is wall mounted. Provision to route the wiring
back to the Electromax Solar must be allowed for.
• CABLE ENTRY POSITIONS - Cable entry can either be made from the front, top right or
left hand side of the Electromax Solar.
