Installing the solar station 
Installing the solar station on a wall
■ Remove front insulation shell.
■ The solar pump station forms a single unit with the wall 
    bracket and rear insulation shell. Secure both components 
   as a complete unit at the intended location, working the 
   front and using anchors and screws suitable for the wall 
    construction type.
Installing the relief valve
■ The solar station is equipped with a solar safety relief valve 
    which meets the relevant requirements.
■  Fit the enclosed relief valve to the outlet of the return 
    instruments above the pump using the 3/4" union nuts. A  
  gasket is enclosed with the solar station for use when 
    installing the relief valve.
■ The enclosed discharge connection bracket should be fitted 
    to the safety valve so that there is no risk of scalding should 
   liquid escape. Follow local codes for drainage piping.
The following information should be noted:
■ The safety valve must be easily accessible.
■   No valves should be placed between relief valve and pump 
   station. The relief valve should be piped to a suitable drain 
  as close as possible to the pump station with no reducing 
   couplings or other restrictions. The piping must be sloping 
   away from the pump station at all times.
■ Dirt traps or other constrictions are not permitted between 
   the collectors (field) and safety valve.
Installation, wall bracket for expansion 
tank: (Lochinvar/TiSUN accessories)
■ Fit the wall bracket for the expansion tank (if equipped) to 
   the right of the solar station.
■  Ensure that the corrugated stainless steel hose is long 
     enough for the  connection between the pump station and 
     the expansion tank, not forgetting the expansion coupling.

collector
A)  Piping
