INSTALLATION – SOLAR CONTROL UNIT
24
The solar control unit is designed to be mounted on the side of the solar storage
tank, with its location above and offset from the cold water inlet. The solar control
unit, supplied with a 1.8 metre power cord, requires a 220 – 240 V general power
outlet (GPO) located within 1.2 metres of its installation. If the installation is
outdoors, the power outlet must be weatherproof (refer to “Connections – Electrical”
on page 32).
Note: Care must be taken when mounting the solar control unit to the side of the
solar storage tank. Damage to the cylinder as a result of mounting the solar control
unit to the jacket will void the warranty (refer to “Saddling - Pipe Work” on page 20).
