The thermal store is connected to the energy source using a G 6/4" connection fitting. Should the tank be connected to a solar thermal system, a heat exchanger shall be used for the connection because heating water is not used as the heat transfer fluid in a solar thermal system. The individual tank outlets are fitted according to the circuits to be connected. 5 - Typical Layout Examples with Thermal Store Example I.

Defects caused by improper installation, use or handling are not covered by warranty. After the tank is installed and connected to an existing heating system, it is recommended to clean the entire heatingsystem using a suitable cleaning agent, e.g. BP 400. Anti-corrosion protective liquid should be also used, e.g. BP 100 Plus. 6.1 - Connection to heat sources Place the tank on the floor, as close to your heat source as possible. Fit the insulation, cf. Installing Insulation on the Tank. Connect the heating system according to the recommended connection layout - see Chap. 5.Install a drain valve at the lowest point of the tank. Install an air vent valve at the highest point of the system. Insulate all the connecting piping. 6.2 - Connection to a solar thermal system This thermal store is primarily not designed to be connected to a solar thermal system. However, when needed, such a connection can be done by means of a heat exchanger between the solar thermal system and the thermal store. In such an event, all the connecting piping between the tank and this heat exchanger shall be thoroughly insulated. 6.3 - El. heating element installation These thermal stores can be equipped with electric heating elements of output up to 12 kW depending on the volume of the thermal store - see the table of max. output of heating elements in hot water tanks and thermal stores. They can be connected either directly (elements with integrated thermostat) or via the controller of the entire heating system. All electric heating elements shall be protected by a safety thermostat. The electric heating element shall be wired by a professionally qualified person only. 6.4 - Commissioning Ground the tank before commissioning. This tank is not designed for DHW heating. The tank shall be filled up together with the heating system, respecting valid standards and rules. In order to minimize corrosion, special additives for heating systems should be used. The quality of heating water depends on the quality of filling water at commissioning, on the top-up water quality and on the frequency of topping up. This has a strong influence on the lifetime of heating systems. Poor quality of heating water may cause problems like corrosion or incrustation, esp. on heat transfer surfaces. Fill the heating circuits with the appropriate fluids and air-bleed the entire system. Check all connections for leaks and verify the system pressure. Set the heating controller in compliance with the documentation and manufacturer's recommendations. Check regularly proper function of all control and adjustment elements. 7 - Installing Insulation on the Tank Product description Fleece insulation with a hard polystyrene surface, closed by a quick lock. Warning Insulation installation shall be done in two or three persons, depending on its size. The PU leather surface coated fleece insulation must not be installed at temperatures below 20 °C. If this cannot be avoided, the insulation shall be pre-warmed in another room to at least 20 °C. It is impossible to install insulation of lower temperature, there is a risk of damage. Do not use any tools for installation. Keep away from open fire. Installing insulation 1. Put the bottom insulation under the tank and place the tank following installation instructions. 2. Wrap the insulation around the tank carefully. Check that the insulation adheres to its body perfectly. This can be reached by rubbing and patting the insulation by hand from its centre evenly in both directions until the insulation adheres to the tank's surface completely and no bubbles are left. 3. Use the holes for connections as a rest during the insulation installation. 4. At least one person presses the insulation to the tank, pulling both ends together. The other person closes the quick lock from the side. 5. Put on the upper insulation and cover. 6. Push on the covering plastic rosettes depending on the size of connections, or put on the flange plug(s) with insulation. 7. Finish the tank installation in compliance with the respective instructions and valid standards and rules. 6 Warranty on insulation The insulation is covered by a 24-month warranty. This period starts the next day after the insulation is sold. Warranty shall become null and void if: the procedure described in the Installation Manual was not respected, the product was used for other purposes than intended. Warranty does not cover: usual wear and tear, damage caused by fire, water, electricity or another natural disaster, defects caused by failure to use the product in compliance with its intended purpose, by improper use and insufficient maintenance, defects caused by mechanical damage to the product, defects caused by tampering or incompetent repair. 7 8 - Maintenance If the tank is fitted with a heating element, disconnect it from the mains first. Clean the exterior of the tank with a soft cloth and a mild detergent. Never use abrasive cleaners or solvents. Check all tank connections for leaks. 9 - Disposal Packaging shall be disposed of in compliance with the valid rules. When the product reaches the end of its life, it shall not be disposed of as household waste. It shall be dropped off at a Local Waste Recycling Centre. Insulation shall be recycled as plastic and the steel vessel as scrap iron. 10 - Warranty This product is covered by warranty according to the conditions described in this Manual and according to the Warranty Certificate.
