Operating and Installation Manual for Solar Module VR 68 0020054784_006
4 Incorporation of the VR 68 into
the solar heating system
The possible applications of the VR 68 solar module are
shown in the four hydraulic diagrams.
The VR 68 solar module can be combined with the VR 61
mixer module within a solar heating system. Two heating
circuits can be controlled using the VR 61 mixer module
in conjunction with the VRC 430 or VRC 430f controller.

Danger!
Risk of scalding by hot water!The solar hot
water cylinder can reach temperatures that are
considerably higher than 60 °C (not only due to
the solar heating, but also the legionella
protection function if it is active).
Make absolutely sure that your expert
technician installs a mixer valve with cold water
supply.
Have the mixer valve adjusted by your expert
technician.
The following conventions apply in the hydraulic
diagrams:
