PRODUCT INFORMATION Satellite collector NANOSOL 135
2.1 Installaon recommendaons
The total daily measured value of the incident radia
on is 26.7 MJ/m2at an ambient temperature of
34.8 °C. We advise not to install the appliance in cli
mac areas where the radiaon value is higher than
the abovequoted one.
The appliance has to be installed by professional and
qualified people who are responsible for the applica
on of safety regulaons in force and can carry out,
not only a proper set up of the appliance, but also the
necessary tests before commissioning the plant.
2.2 Packaging
The appliance is delivered packaged in a wooden box
with appropriate protecon. A pressure relief and
non return valve and an envelope containing this boo
klet are delivered with the appliance.
2.3 Sizing
Before installing the appliance, knowing exactly how
it will be used is very important in order to avoid an
under sizing of the whole plant. The right sizing de
pends on the user’s needs.
Useful advices:
•One appliance is suitable to produce enough do
mesc hot water for two people.
•We suggest to install at least two units (the hot
water produced by the first one is quite oen wa
sted during the water distribuon).
•If the solar system is well sized, it is possible to
use the domesc hot water produced by the ap
pliance for a longer period throughout the year,
thus increasing the user’s savings
•If for economic reasons an undersized system is
carried out, foresee brackets for other units, in
order to make a possible subsequent installaon
of more appliances easier and quicker.
•Domesc hot water consumpon: On average
about 910 litres of water flow offa tap every mi
nute (every 10 minutes = 100 litres of water. This
equals to 3/4 of the overall storage capacity of
the appliance).
2.4 Installaon and locaon
of the appliance
The water heater is delivered in a packaging. It is sup
plied with the installaon manual and with a pressure
relief valve (to be replaced with a pressure relief and
nonreturn valve in accordance with the rule EN 1487
in case the panel is installed in Italy). Once the appli
ance is out of the packaging, place it exactly where it
has to be installed paying aenon while handling it:
use the special handles in order to avoid to compro
mise the ghtness of the black seal that fixes the cu
polas to the tray. At this stage, connect the cold and
hot tubes, placing the pressure relief valve on the cold
water inlet. Then fill the tank. In all storage solar
water heaters the absorbing surface (cupola) must al
ways be exposed to the sun. The best posioning of
the solar water heater is SOUTHWARDS.
In order to use all the hot water stored in the tank, a
35° installaon is advised. This angle makes water
straficaon easier: in this way, beeing the hot water
outlet in the upper part of the tank, it is possible to
use nearly all the hot water. Moreover, thanks to this
angle, sun rays are perpendicular to the appliance du
ring the hoest part of the day.
Suggeson for a good installaon:
•If possible, always connect the hot water outlet of
the appliance to the cold water inlet of conveno
nal hot water systems such as gas boilers, boilers
with calorifier or fireplaces. In this way you will be
nefit at best from solar energy: the solar water
heater will act as an efficient heat integrator.
•In order to avoid useless heat losses, we advise to
locate the solar water heater close to point where
users withdraw hot water.
•If the appliance is located in public places, we sug
gest to install a thermostac water mixer and a
token dispenser to keep down the hot water con
sumpon.
