Safety instructions

The entire solar system must always be installed and

operated in accordance with recognised technical standards.
IMPORTANT: Risk of falling! Make sure you adhere to the

valid work protection regulations, in particular when working

on the roof. Make absolutely sure you wear anti-fall devices

whenever there is a risk of falling. (We recommend Glow-

worm fall protection systems, item no. 0020054985.) Observe

the accident prevention regulations of the trade associations.
IMPORTANT: Risk of being burned or scalded by hot

components! Install and replace collectors or collector parts

on very cloudy days. Perform installation work on sunny days

only in the morning or evening or with the collector covered.
IMPORTANT: Risk of being burned or scalded by hot solar

fluid or components! Fill and flush the solar

system when the collectors are cold. Cover the

collectors while doing so.
IMPORTANT: Risk of being burned or scalded by escaping

hot steam! Steam can escape from the expansion relief valve

of the solar pump unit if the system is shut down. To avoid

injuries, you must connect the expansion relief valve to a

collecting container with a hose line.

IMPORTANT: A thermostatic mixing valve must be fitted to

the outlet of the cylinder and can be adjusted to the desired

domestic hot water temperature by an installation or service

engineer. Otherwise there is a risk of scalding as the cylinder

outlet temperature at the taps could be up to 85°C.
IMPORTANT: Risk of being burned or scalded by escaping

hot steam! Steam can escape from unblocked automatic

bleeders if the system is shut down. Therefore block all

automatic bleeders after bleeding.
We recommend using the automatic air separator system

supplied as part of Glow-worm optional pipework kit. It works

fully automatically and does not need to be subsequently

blocked. It must be installed in an area however, in which no

steam can enter, preferably in the return pipe nearby the solar

cylinder.
