Assembly; Hydraulic Connections - Orkli OKSOL-150 Manuel D'installation

It is also important to consider the distance of the solar equipment from supply points and/or domestic hot water auxiliary
production equipment.
External shadows should be avoided on the collector should be avoided as much as the location permits, adjoining
buildings, chimneys, tall vegetation, accentuated orography, etc.
If the system installation is not integrated in the roof and there are more than one collector the minimum distance between
collectors must be taken into account to avoid shadows. The following is a proposed method for calculating 'optimum'
separation distances.
d = h x k

Warnings
The photovoltaic cell that feeds the primary pump is located on the bottom of the collector, and therefore special care
should be taken with shadows.
Orientation and inclination
Recommended orientation is south of collector. In general 45º deviations are allowed. Consult local regulations.

ASSEMBLY

The OKSOL-150 system should be installed by an authorised installer. Before installing the equipment, check:
a) The correct condition of all components.
b) Exact installation position and correct orientation.
For assembly instructions, see the system structure manual.
Observation
In accordance with RITE, energy saving elements, solar panel connection pipes, and domestic hot water pipes must be
equipped with thermal insulation to avoid energy loss.
In windy and snowy areas additional precautions should be adopted for such conditions. Contact the company for further
information.

HYDRAULIC CONNECTIONS

11.
Existing OKSOL-150 system connections are cold water inlet and outlet. It is recommended that inlet and outlet pipes are
assembled via 'flared fittings' to avoid pipe tension. Likewise the system should contain a tank and solar circuit drainage
line. In accordance with CT and RITE these should be correctly insulated and comply with installation regulations.
Network pressure and optimal work
Mains water connection is via safety valves included with the collector. Where necessary, mains water pipes shall be fitted
with a filter. The safety valve shall be able to withstand a pressure of 4.5 bar and 95ºC, this protects the system against
pressure rises in the domestic hot water part. In turn, the safety valve for the solar part must withstand a maximum pressure
of 3 bar.
