1. General Information Installing the temperature sensor The solar collector temperature sensor should be installed in the sensor sleeve nearest to the collector array flow To ensure optimal contact between the temperature sensor and the surrounding environment the gap between the sensor sleeve and the sensor element should be filled with a suitable conducting compound All materials used for installing temperature sensors sensor element conducting compound cables sealing and insulating materials must be suitably temperature resistant up to 250 c Operating pressure The maximum operating pressure is 10 bar Removal of air from the system bleeding The system should be properly bled at commissioning to remove as much air as possible from the system We would recom mend that after 2 to 4 weeks of operation the system is bled again Warning When bleeding the system there is a risk of scalding due to steam and hot transfer fluid and appropriate care must be taken Only operate the bleeding valve if the temperature of the heat transfer fluid is below 60 c When bleeding the system the collectors must not be hot Cover the collectors and if possible bleed the system in the morning Checking heat transfer fluid The heat transfer fluid must be checked at least every four years with regard to its antifreeze content and pH value e Check the antifreeze with an antifreeze tester and replace or refill if necessary We would recommend2.
