1A INDIRECT PRESSURISED SOLAR CIRCUIT
The Ideal Solar System features high performance solar panel collectors with highly advanced features. The collector has been
awarded the Solar Keymark, the EUs quality mark for solar collectors. The collectors are mounted on a fast-to-t frame and a solar
pump station is also supplied to provide all the safety features required for a pressurised circuit. The Ideal Solar Controller EC1
ensures efcient use of the available solar energy at any given time and features several extra functions.
INSULATION
Exposed pipe work should be insulated according to the high temperatures that the collectors are able to generate. This should be high
temperature Armalfex or similar grade.
Suitable insulation is available from Armacell UK Ltd., Mars Street, Oldham, Lancashire OL9 6LY.
