Safety cautions

(please read the cautions before use)

Suggestions

• This is a zero pressure system and care has to be taken that there is no pressure builtup inside the tank. Install a vent pipe as indibated earlier. Maximum water head of the overhead tank should be 4 meters.
• When there is no water inside the system or when the system is not in use for more than 2-3 days, cover the vacuum tubes with an opaque cover, so that light will not pass to the tubes.
• The vacuum tubes, being fragile, should be handled with care and should be protected from any object falling on the tubes after installation.

Product features

Installation instructions

****Selection of installation location

1. The water heater shall be installed within the lightening protected area of a building in locations prone to lightening strikes.
2. The orientation of the water heater to be installed: 10o south by east and 15o south by west in the Northern Hemisphere; 10o north by west and 15o north by east in the Southern Hemisphere.
3. There must be no shielding object in front of the installation location of the water heater. If an object exists, the space between the heater and the objective shall be more than L, (wherein: H- height of the shielding objective;
   α- local latitude)

Installation instructions

****Exterior and installation dimensions of horizontal water heater

Note: The permitted error limit of the parameters above is ±10%.

Frame assembly

Please see the related paper in the frame package for the diagram of the frame and packing list.

Frame fixation

1. For horizontal water heaters, it is recommended to fix the feet of the heater onto the foot
   foundation with embedded iron parts or make a concrete brick with expansion bolts and
   then fix the feet of the heater to the expansion bolts.

2. Adjust the height of the frame by the hard waterproof cushion to keep the horizontal tank
   and each foot evenly weighted.

Notice:

1. Make sure that the feet all closely contact the supporting floor without foot suspension to avoid damage of the product due to frame deformation.
2. Please use the steel wire to firmly fasten the tank and frame if in a location where typhoons frequently occur.
3. The water heater shall be stably and firmly installed to avoid severe damage or accident due to harsh weather conditions.

Tank installation

1. Unpacking the tank, rip off the protection film. Uninstall the nut and cushion.
2. Place tank onto tank bracket cradle, inserting protruding bolts into holes, fasten with nuts.

Installation of Solderless Pipe Head

1. Pipe fitting is connected to water pipe with a solderless connection.
2. Outlet pipe and water inlet pipe both use solderless structure. To install, use a wrench to secure the water tank pipe head. In order to avoid damaging the seals, do not rotate water tank pipe head and do not apply force along the axial direction of the pipe.
3. When installing the water inlet and outlet pipe, first use a wrench to secure the water tank pipe head, then unscrew the plastic cap and use inner ratchet teeth to directly connect to the PEX pipe. Before installation, check that the gasket ring of the water inlet and outlet pipe is intact.

Notice:

1. Rip off the protection film after installation to avoid the destroy of the tank, and please do not use the sharp tool.
2. Leave nuts loose since some adjustment may be necessary after fitting tubes.
3. When assembling the water tank, keep the center line of the vacuum tube connecting holes parallel with the diagonal pillar of bracket.
4. The inlet and outlet of the water tank can be also used as the drain.

Installation of vacuum tubes

1. Keep the tubes out of the sunlight before assembling the tubes to avoid being burned;
2. The vacuum end use detergent or water soaked (Figure A);
3. Insert the tubes into the seal ring with even pressure and a twisting motion. The resultant force direction shall be consistent with the axial direction of the vacuum tubes;
4. Place the tubes into the tail support of the frame (Figure B) and then fix the tube onto the tail base (Figure C);
5. Insert the tube into the seal ring at the depth of around 1cm, push the heat insulation ring to the water tank hole for sealing (Figure D);
6. While assembling, install one tube on each end of the heater tank respectively first, so
   that the heater tank and frame are positioned as a whole.

Notice:

1. Check whether the seal rings in tank holes are sufficiently installed and whether the sealing location is clean and free from foreign matters and damage.
2. Make the pipe end wet before insertion for easy assembly.

Installation of electric heater and Operation instructions
Please refer to the Operation Manual of Solar water heater controller Model HR-QBJ1-KSD in the controller package.

Precautions on pipeline installation

1. Any alteration to the structure of the solar water heater may cause problems in use.
2. There are five ways to connect the water pipe to the room: flue, vent hole, throughhole in the wall, pipe well for solar pipes and embedded sleeves, wherein the former three types are commonly used. Before installation, the installation staff will consult the entry form and installation location of the pipe in a comprehensive way and in consideration of your convenience. A slope in the through-wall must be ensured during pipeline layout, and sealing shall be guaranteed to prevent the entry of rain or odors.
3. Keep the smoothness of the air pipe to prevent the blockage of impurities, which may lead to collapse and deformation of the water tank under suction when using water.
4. Do not install a valve in the overflow pipeline to ensure that the flood signal can be sent out rapidly and accurately.
5. To avoid the return of water in the tank, a non-return valve shall be installed at the joint of the water upward/downward pipes and the tap water.
6. The installation project should be confirmed by our professional service personnel when installing several sets of the series of the products.

Warning
Please install another not-return valve on the cold and hot water pipes respectively if the solar heater coexists with other water heaters so as to avoid accidents caused by water returned to the solar water tank through hot water pipe due to high pressure in the tanks.

Notice:
Improper operation of the water heater may lead to serious burns. When using the heater, do not make the high-temperature water of the nozzle aim directly at the body, mix the cold and hot water before use.

Troubleshooting

Operation instructions

Operations

1. Before using water, the manual valve, mixing valve (hot water) and mixing valve (cold water) should be closed.

2. To fill water, use automatic function on the controller, or open the manual valve.

3. When using manual valve, when water flows from the overflow pipe, it indicates the water tank is full. Close the manual valve to finish filling water.

4. To use water, open the mixing valve (hot water) and the water comes from the shower
   nozzle. If the water is too hot, open the mixing valve (cold water) to adjust the water temperature.

5. After use of water, make sure the manual valve and mixing valves are closed.
