2 Safety instructions 2 Safety instructions 2.1 Safety and warning information When operating the system, observe the basic safety instructions and the warning notes which appear before each of the actions. 2.1.1 Classification of action-related warnings The action-related warnings are classified in accordance with the severity of the possible danger using the following warning signs and signal words: Warning sign a e a b 2.1.
Safety instructions 2 2.3 Basic safety instructions Installation, commissioning, and maintenance Installation and adjustment as well as service, maintenance and repair must be carried out by a competent person approved at the time by the Health and Safety Executive and be in accordance with the relevant requirements of the Local Authority, Building Regulations, Building Regulations (Scotland), Building Regulations (Northern Ireland), and the bye-laws of the local Water Undertaking.
3 Description of the unit 3 Description of the unit The auroSTOR solar cylinder is available in three sizes: 210, 260 and 310 litres and meets the requirements of EN 12897:2006. The cylinder is made from stainless steel and is insulated with EPS with heat radiation absorbers. The cylinder works with the pressure of the water supply line and does not need a cold water tank for its supply.
Operation 4 4 4.1 Operation Operating the solar heating system a Danger! Risk of scalding and bursts due to inappropriate alterations! There is a risk of escaping steam, bursting, and damage to the system if you make any changes to the cylinder, control system, supply lines for water and power (if present), relief valve termination, or expansion relief valve for the cylinder water. > Do not make any improper changes.
4 Operation 4.3 Setting the hot water temperature The hot water temperature is set to the required value by the competent person during the cylinder commissioning process. If an external controller is installed for hot water temperature control, you can set the hot water temperature and primary heating times using this controller.
Operation 4 4.6 Cleaning the solar collector and cylinder 4.6.1 Cleaning the solar collectors There is actually no need to clean the collectors. Like skylights, solar collectors do get dirty. However, they are kept reasonably clean naturally by rainfall. 4.6.2 Cleaning the cylinder > Clean the outside of the cylinder only with a damp cloth, using soapy water if it is especially dirty. Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or solvents (any type of scouring agent, petroleum etc.
5 Inspection and maintenance 6 Recycling and disposal 5 Inspection and maintenance An annual inspection/maintenance run for the solar heating system by a competent person is a prerequisite for ensuring that the solar heating system is permanently ready for operation, reliable, and has a long working life. It is important that your hot water cylinder is serviced annually. We recommend entering into a maintenance agreement.
