5 Collector connections
Because of its 4 connections, the collector offers a wide choice of connection options.
Ensure that no part of the collector array or collector in the array is short circuited by
following these instructions.
When planning the collector array, the position of the various connection parts must be
in accordance with the diagrams, also pay attention to the position of the highlighted
sensor pockets.
Table 3 illustrates the components required to make all the collector connection.

5.1 Single collector vertical connection
When installing a single collector installation, there are two connection options available.
Choice of connection option will be determined by suitability and location of the compo-
nents in the solar system to one another, (pipe runs etc usually determine the choice).
Figure 2 illustrates the left hand side connection option and the right hand side connec-
tion options that are applicable only to a single vertical collector connection.
