5.Collector seal

Aluminum profile system with double temperature and UV- resistant silicone seals, emission free.

SCH Collectors Installation & Operation Manual

6.Inlet connection

Copper pipes, .86" diameter.

7.Outlet connection

Copper pipes, .86" diameter.

8.Absorber coils

10 mm copper, serpentine arrangement.

9.Hydraulic connection kit

Connection set with stainless steel corrugated pipe. For connecting the collector supply and return to the riser. The corrugated pipes are available in kits with 2 x 6'-7" or 2 x 13'1" length including sensor well and plug.

10.Sensor well

For measuring the collector outlet temperature directly in the fluid. The sensor well can be installed on the outlet connection as shown on the collector label. The sensor must be inserted up to the end of the sensor well.

11.Plug

This plug is used on the end collector of each array to complete the water flow path.
