3.6.1 Installing FlowSensor
The Solaris FlowSensor FLS20 (image 3-40, 16 41 07), available as an accessory, is a measurement instrument that
records the flow volume in the solar panels and the feed temperature. The measurement range of the FlowSensor FLS20 is
between 0 and 20 l/min (flow volume) and 0 to 120 °C (feed temperature). The measured values are shown in the display of the
Solaris RPS3 P2 control and pump unit. Thanks to the speed control of the tank circulation pump, the Solaris RPS3 P2 control
and pump unit automatically adjusts the passing flow during operation.
1. Place seal (b) on the solar flow connection (a) of the hot water storage tank.
2. Screw FlowSensor (c) to the solar flow connection (a) of the hot water storage tank.
3. Place seal (e) and install press fitting (f) on the outlet of the FlowSensors (c).
4. Insert prepared feed pipe (g) (Ø 15 mm) into the press fitting (f).
5. Lay the FlowSensor cable between the FlowSensor (c) and the control system.
6. Lay cable (i) from solar panel temperature sensor to the control systems.
7. Connect FlowSensor cable to FlowSensor (c) and to the control system printed circuit board edge at position FLS (4-pin, see
image 3-21).
During installation be aware of the flow direction of the measurement instruments.
