The iSolar series are multi—functional temperature differential controllers
that provide complete control of the solar thermal system for safe and
long-lasting operation. The microprocessor based controller monitors and
controls thermal solar systems by means of a collector sensor and a storage
tank sensor. The controllers also perform important system monitoring and
safety functions. The system parameters and measured values can be
changed and viewed on the large LCD display. The controller is equipped
for up to four temperature sensor inputs and one or two 120 VAC outputs
(some models) for activating the solar circuit pump and second 120 VAC
output for activating a valve or second pump. The controller is additionally
equipped with VBus
®
for two-way communication between modules, PC’s
or data loggers.
