1.0 Legislation

Please note the following instructions regarding laws,

regulations and technical rules.

When setting up solar energy installations, the laws and

regulations at local, state, European and international level that

apply to the country in question must be observed. Generally

acknowledged technical regulations apply; these are usually

formulated in the form of standards, guidelines, provisions,

regulations and technical rules laid down by local and national

bodies, energy supply companies, trade organisations and

technical committees in the relevant fields. The installation of

solar units may require improved rain resistance with regard to

roof, wall and sealing technology and this must be taken into

account accordingly. To meet regulations for the prevention of

accidents, it may be necessary to use safety equipment (straps,

scaffolding, supports, etc.). Such safety equipment is not

supplied and must be ordered separately. Installation must only

be carried out by technically qualified and authorised personnel

with a recognised qualification (verified by a state or national

body) in the relevant technical area.

Use a safety harness when working at height.

The structure of the roof must be assessed for its suitability

prior to commencing work.

This product is unclassified against BS 476-3.

Consult a Structural Engineer if you are unsure of the

collector’s siting.

Loading due to snow may exceed the capability of the

property’s structure.

Wind loads may cause excess forces on the structure and

cause damage.

The Installer is responsible for the suitability of the site and its

sub-structure.

The collector should be sited to avoid damage from falling

debris and vandalism.

All pipe work within this installation must be Earth bonded.

In exposed areas, the collector must be protected against the

risk of lightning.

It is recommended that a minimum of 2 people are used to lift

this product.

The collector must not be lifted by its pipe connections.

Ensure all hydraulic connections are securely fixed and are free

of leaks.

The system must be inspected on completion of the work.

A further inspection is recommended annually.

Avoid installing the collector in shaded areas.

The general recommended torque setting for nuts and bolts is

10Nm.

A separate second array can be installed behind the first if

necessary.

Large arrays will require specialist piping, pump groups and

design.

The collector must not be installed on an uneven roof surface.

Do not apply excessive force when installing the collector.

Hot, exposed surfaces that can be touched must be insulated

to protect against injury.

Lubrication is not required for the ‘O’ ring connections.

NOTE: This limit may be reduced for installations where

abutments create additional risks of drifting or falling snow.

WARNING: The maximum wind load to be borne by the

mounting structure depends on the height and geographical area

of the site among other factors. This structure must be installed in

accordance with the provisions of the EN1991 standard. Consult

a structural engineer if in doubt.

11.0 Maintenance

It is recommended that the following checks are carried out

on an annual basis:

1) Check the collector installation for any signs of damage or

any build up of debris.

2) Check for any corrosion to the collector or the mounting

system and repair if necessary.

3) Check the tightness of the fasteners. Where fasteners

cannot be readily accessed, the overall security of the

collector installation may indicate whether problems exist.

4) Check the fittings and pipe work for any signs of fluid

leakage or damage, including the condition of the pipe

insulation, and repair if necessary. Check inside the building

for any evidence of leaks.

5) Examine the roof tiles around the collector installation for

any damage or deterioration, and repair if necessary.

6) Check for any foliage growth that may cause shading of the

collectors.

7) Where applicable, check the condition of any ballast used

to secure the system.

8) In areas where there may be a build up of dirt on the

collector, only non-abrasive cleaning materials and methods

should be used to clean the collectors and mounting

system components.
