INSTALLATION Note: This installation procedure is for guidance only, and the installer should verify its suitability. Make sure that the solar system is physically installed, manually tested, and ready for controlled operation. he following sa fety precautions are strongly recommended: T 1. Before attempting to install and operate the unit read this instruction manual carefully. 2. Only suitably qualified personnel should carry out installation and required maintenance.

strap the sensor to the collector outlet pipe or the absorber (flat plate collectors) that projects from the collector housing. Ideally, house the collector sensor (encased in a suitable sensor pocket) into a T-piece on the collector return outlet. Protect the sensor cable from UV and moisture. l Return (tank) sensor (white cable): The sensor required for the solar loop return is installed in the lower part of the storage tank. If there is no provision for this tank sensor, push the

ower Connections: A small blade screwdriver may be used to fasten miniaturized P terminal block screws while the corresponding wire is inserted. NOTE 1: Always disconnect the controller from power supply before opening the housing. NOTE 2: The controller should be properly grounded. Flexible wires, 18/3 AWG (gauge/conductor) simplify connection to the terminals. The power terminal block will accommodate wire sizes to 14 AWG. All other connections should be secured and adequa

roubleshooting T In general, all of the settings in the menus Par and Men and the terminal should first be checked if there is a malfunction. Malfunction, but "realistic" temperature values: • Check program number. • Check the switch-on and switch-off thresholds and the set differential temperatures. Have the thermostat and differential thresholds already been reached? • Were the settings in the submenus (Men) changed? • Can the pump (output) be switched on and off in manual m
