6. On the left outer edge of the solar
collector (01), hook in two fixing
brackets (09) into the solar collector
profile (a) and push them down on
to the mounting rails (b).
Secure the fixing brackets in the
anchor blocks using M8x14 cylinder
bolts.
7. Secure the solar collector using
two further fixing brackets on the
opposite side:
• Place anchor blocks in the
mounting rails
• Hook fixing brackets into the
solar collector
• Secure using cylinder bolts
M8x14
8. Place the compression fitting (11)
on the connector of the first solar
collector.
9. Hook two further mounting hooks
into the lower mounting rail, see
Figure 82, Positioning the Mounting
Hooks.
10. Place another solar collector on the
mounting rail/mounting hooks and
remove the carry handles.
11. Place anchor blocks for the second
solar collector in the mounting rail
and align so that the fixing brackets
can be fixed finally side by side.
12. Install fixing brackets into the solar
collector profile and push them
down onto the mounting rails.
13. Push the second solar collector up
to the first solar collector until the
ends of the fixing brackets touch
using cylinder bolts M8x14.
Note:
Take care with compression fitting!
Guide the second solar collector’s
connector into the compression
fitting!
14. Continue in the same way to install
additional solar collectors.
Important:
Following installation the
collectors must be covered, to
stop solar radiation reaching
them, until completion of filling
and commissioning.
