Check content discharge vessel

Should any heat transfer medium be deposited in the discharge vessel which was not there from the beginning, the cause is to be established.

Check roof feed-through for leaks

The points at which the pipe work penetrates the primary and secondary protection layer are to be inspected if accessible. No leakage must be found at these points.

Check condition of pipe insulation

As detailed in Chapter 6.6 the pipe work insulation in solar thermal systems must fulfil certain criteria. However, damage due to system overheating, animal and mechanical influences are always possible. Damaged insulation is to be replaced.

Check collector fixations

This work must be carried out with safe access only.

Check electrical connections

This check must only be carried out in a safe manner and by a qualified person.

Check pump function

This check can be carried out by moving the switch on the side of the control unit to its ON position. A flow should be registered on the flow meter in the system. Remember to return the control unit into AUTO when testing is complete.

Check sensor readings

The sensor readings can be checked in the display of the control unit by pressing the up and down buttons. Should any doubt exist about the correct reading, the sensor should be exchanged against another sensor in the system for reference and replaced if re- quired.

Check frost protection and pH value of heat transfer medium

The SOLHTTK test kit is to be used to ensure the heat transfer medium retained its properties. To access the heat transfer medium in the system slacken the bleed screw of the circulating pump and allow 1 or 2 drops of liquid to escape to carry out the test- ing.

Check charge pressure expansion vessel

This can only be carried out when the expansion vessel is hydraulically disconnected from the solar loop. It must therefore not be undertaken when the system is hot or will heat up in the foreseeable future. This check must only be carried out when any doubt exists that the charge pressure has reduced such as reduced fill pressure, pressure fluc- tuation between cold and hot system.

At the end of the maintenance routine it is imperative to ensure the system is back in its automatic operation and that the user is informed of what has been undertaken.
