1 GENERAL SAFETY INFORMATION
9
Check that the product is complete, undamaged
and as ordered as soon as you receive it. Report any
discrepancies or damage to our dealer who sold it.
9
This product must be installed by a legally qualifi ed
heating engineer. On completion of the installation,
the installer must issue the owner with a declara-
tion of conformity confi rming that the installation
has been completed to the highest standards in
compliance with the instructions provided by us in
this instruction manual, and that it conforms to all
applicable laws and standards.
9
This product must only be used for the purpose for
which it is designed and made, as specifi ed by us.
We decline all responsibility, contractual or other,
for damage to property or injury to persons or ani-
mals caused by improper installation, adjustment,
maintenance or use.
9
All servicing and repairs must be performed by a
qualifi ed heating engineer.
9
Solar collectors must be installed with the correct
mounting kit (which includes all necessary rails
and brackets) as listed in the Catalogue. The system
must be installed by specialist personnel. Use only
the assembly material supplied with the solar col-
lector. The supporting framework and all mason-
ry or brickwork fi xing points must be checked by a
person expert in static loading, and must be suita-
ble for the nature of the installation site.
9
The solar collector must only be installed on roofs
or frames that are strong enough to support its
weight. The strength of the roof or frame must be
verifi ed on site by a person expert in static load-
ing before the solar collector is installed. During this
process, it is important to verify the suitability of the
supporting frame to hold the screw fasteners that
fi x the solar collector in place. An expert in static
loading must verify that the entire frame complies
with relevant standards, especially in areas liable to
snow and areas exposed to high winds. Conditions
(gusts of wind, formation of wind vortices, etc.) at
the point where the solar collector is to be installed
must be carefully considered since these can in-
crease the loads on the supporting structure.
9
Solar collector pipes must be connected through a
(yellow-green) connector of at least 16 mm
V-U o R) to the potential compensation main bar. If
a lighting rod is already installed, collectors can be
integrated in the existing system. If this is not the
case, it is possible to carry out earthing with a buried
earth cable. The earth duct must be laid outside the
house. Furthermore, the earth cable must be con-
nected to the compensation bar through a duct hav-
ing the same diameter.
9
All pipes in the water circuit must be insulated in
conformity to relevant standards. Lagging and in-
sulation must be protected against damage by the
weather and birds and animals.
9
The collector is suitable for a minimum inclination of
15°, up to a maximum of 75°.

This instruction manual is an integral part of the
product. It must be kept safe and must ALWAYS ac-
company the product, even if it is sold to another
owner or transferred to another user or to another
installation. If you lose this manual, order a replace-
ment immediately. Keep the product purchase doc-
uments to be presented to our authorised Techni-
cal Assistance Service to request a service call under
warranty.
9
Size the solar expansion tank so as to ensure com-
plete absorption of the expansion of the fl uid con-
tained within the system, with reference to the
prevailing regulations on the matter. In particular,
consider fl uid characteristics, considerable fl uctu-
ation of service temperature and vapour that might
be generated during solar collector stagnation
stage. Proper size of expansion tank ensures setting
off of all volume changes of the heat transfer fl uid,
avoiding excessive pressure increase. Limited pres-
sure changes avoid reaching safety valve opening
pressure and the consequent fl uid drainage.
2 PRECAUTIONS
9
Always wear safety goggles when drilling. Always
wear safety shoes, cut-proof protective gloves and
a safety helmet when performing installation work.
9
Before beginning installation work on roofs, install
the necessary fall prevention and fall arrest devices
and ensure that all applicable safety standards are
applied. Use only tools and materials that conform
to the safety standards that are applicable in the
place of work.
9
Use only overalls with harness (with lacing or re-
straining belt, connection ropes or bands, fall
dampeners, heat sinks) certifi ed for the risk detect-
ed according to the type of covering and allowing
operating in complete safety.
9
The use of ladders leaned against walls can lead to
serious falls if the ladder slips, slides of falls. When
using ladders, always ensure that they are stable,
and that suitable ladder stops are present. If pos-
sible secure the ladder with hooks. Make sure that
Cu (H07
2
there are no live electrical wires near the ladder.
0
Never attempt to install the system without using
suitable personal protection equipment and with-
out following all applicable occupational safety
standards.
0
Do not touch the product when barefoot or wet if it
has any electrical accessories installed in it.
0
If solar plant pressure decreases, it is forbidden to
top up with only water as there is a danger of freez-
ing and overheating.
0
Do not dispose of packaging material into the en-
vironment, or leave it within the reach of children,
since it can become a potential hazard. Dispose of
packaging material in compliance with applicable
legislation.
