INSTALLATION – SOLAR CONTROL UNIT
The solar control unit is supplied mounted on the side of the solar storage tank. A kit (299158) containing
components to enable the connection of the solar circuit pipe work to the tank is supplied with the tank.
The solar control unit, supplied with a 1.8 metre power cord, requires a 240 V 50 Hz general purpose outlet
(GPO) located within 1.2 metres of its installation. The GPO must have a continuous power supply
originating from a circuit other than the water heater circuit. The GPO is required to be weatherproof if
installed outdoors (refer to “Connections – Electrical” on page 46).
Note: The solar control unit automatically controls the flow rate through the collector circuit. This is achieved
via the hot and cold sensors and differential controller programming providing control over the operation of
the circulator. There is no provision for nor is adjustment to the solar control unit required.
