1.6 SOLAR COLLECTORS (NOT SUPPLIED).
The installation of a heating solar collector requires analysis of a
range of issues (installation area, positioning, inclination angle,
etc.), of which depend on the performances the collector will be
able to supply once started.
It is therefore important to contact a an authorised company to
check the various parameters installation.
Installation precautions:
- Before installing the collector, proceed with an installation area
check, ensure the installation of the collector can withstand
atmospheric agents: wind and snow.
- The collector can be positioned based on the roofs conditions (flat
or leaning) or in a predisposed adjustable structure. Under no
circumstances can the collector be positioned with the collector
glass facing downwards which is the cause of the malfunctions
and damages.

- before starting the operating system, the solar collector must
be covered to protect the absorber from overheating and the
operator from scalding. The system must only be filled when
the hydraulic system of the collector has been assembled and
cannot be started before it has been possible to eliminate the
heat generated from the solar collector.
- Be careful to not force or put the connection fittings under ex-
cessive traction to avoid damaging them and the internal parts
of the collector.
- During handling use appropriate personal protective equipment
(e.g. gloves etc.) and avoid transporting the collector from the
connection fittings.
- Provide an appropriate earthing system connection and any
lightning and surge protection systems to safeguard any electric
devices. In the event these systems are already present, the Im-
mergas solar system must be connected to the existing lightning
protection system by a qualified firm, in compliance with the
legislation in force, which must issue a declaration of conformity.
