Owner’s Information
circulation pump is initiated. If the
difference in temperature falls to
less than 2°C the circulation pump
is stopped.
Controlling maximum storage tank 2.
temperature. If the storage tank
temperature reaches 85°C, the
circulation pump is stopped to
prevent excessive temperatures in
the storage tank.
Frost Protection. When the 3.
temperature of ambient conditions
adjacent to the collector sensor
drops to 5°C the circulation pump
will start and run for a minimum of
5 minutes to prevent the collector
from freezing. The pump circulates
hot water from the storage tank
through the collectors until the
collector sensor registers that the
collector temperature has been
raised to 9°C, at which point the
pump is shut down.
Anti Frost Valve. A secondary 4.
level of protection has also been
provided through the use of an
Anti Frost Valve. This valve opens
and releases water from collectors
when ambient air temperatures are
between below 2°C and 4°C. The
valve also isolates the collector and
connecting pipework from the tank
to prevent the loss of heated water
from the tank.
How Long Will The Heater Run
Each Day?
The length of time that the solar heater
will run each day will vary dependent
upon the amount of hot water being
used by the household and the
availability of sunlight to heat the solar
collectors.
Caution: All water heaters have
the ability to produce hot water in a
surprisingly short time. To reduce the
risk of scald injury, it is mandatory
under the requirements of Australian
Standards AS3500 that an Australian
Standards approved temperature
control valve be tted to the hot water
supply pipe work. This valve should be
checked at regular intervals to ensure its
operation and settings remain correct.
