CAUTIONS
We advise you to read through this guide for technical details and
installation data before commencing with the installation.
1. Gloves and eye protection must be used when handling glass tubes.
2. Avoid scratching or sudden shock to tubes.
3. Unpack and install tubes only after the manifold unit has been installed and all the
pipe work has been completed.
4. The Chloride content of the water passing through the manifold should not exceed
40ppm.
5. In hot water applications a heat exchanger should be used between the collector and
the hot water storage tank to ensure a long and trouble free service life.
6. When heating a swimming pool or spa a heat exchanger must be used between the
pool and the collector.
7. Thermomax manifold systems are designed to operate at a maximum pressure of
5bar (75psi) it is strongly recommended to use a relief valve (set at 4.5bar).
8. To prevent corrosion and scaling we would recommend using a corrosion inhibitor
in the system.
9. The circulating pump should under no circumstances be switched off during a sunny
day. If switched off, there will be a high temperature and as a result, high pressure
in the system. When not in use for extended periods, the circulating pump must be
left switched on and a by-pass should divert the heat from the storage tank.
10. The Thermomax tubes should under no circumstances be exposed to the sun for
extended periods (maximum one day) if the system has not been filled.
11. ALL LOCAL AUTHOURITIES REGULATIONS AND REVELANT
STANDARDS SHOULD BE FOLLOWED.
