5 2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.1 Description HYBRID STOR triple coil combination storage cylinders come in the form of an inertial (buffer) storage cylinder with three internal coils. The bottom coil receives heat from the solar circuit while the top coil receives heat from the boiler. A third coil in stainless steel produces domestic hot water. The most important technical features of these combination storage cylinders are: The cylinder and coils are specially designed and shaped for optimum performance in terms of stratification, heat exchange and replenishment times. The stainless steel, rapid heat exchange coil for domestic hot water production is bacteriologically inert and guarantees maximum hygiene and reduced lime scale deposits. Water fittings are available at different heights, permitting different boilers to be used without reducing the stratification effect. CFC-free polyurethane insulation and an elegant external casing reduce heat loss and improve efficiency. Excellent flexibility permits use in both high and low temperature systems. Dimensions are extremely compact thanks to the clever combination of an inertial storage cylinder and domestic hot water coil. HYBRID STOR triple coil combination storage cylinders can be connected to a special solar controller and can be integrated in solar heating systems in which boilers or water heaters serve as auxiliary heat generators 2.2 Identification HYBRID STOR combination storage cylinders are identified by three plates: 5 Data plate This lists the technical specifications and performance of the product.

13 b bthe DHW production coil must be filled and pressurised before the inertial storage cylinder is filled. bbin very hard water areas, use suitably treated water to fill the inertial storage cylinder. bbmake sure that the combination storage cylinder is full of water before starting up the solar heating system. bbif the combination storage cylinder is installed in systems that operate at pressures in excess of 4 bar, fit a pressure reducer. bba non-return valve must be fitted at the top of the inertial storage cylinder to prevent natural circulation developing. bbtake care when opening the solar heating circuit s vent valves. Risk of burns! bbmake sure that the solar circuit s expansion vessel is able to withstand high temperatures and that its membrane is resistant to the water-glycol mix. bbthe domestic hot water system MUST INCLUDE an expansion vessel, safety valve, automatic vent valve and combination storage cylinder drain cock. bbthe safety valve must be connected to a suitable collection and drain system. The manufacturer declines all responsibility for damage caused by water escaping from the safety valve. bbuse a thermostatic mixer valve to limit the domestic hot water outlet temperature. bbif the pressure in the solar heating circuit drops, do NOT top up with water but use the proper water-glycol mix. Risk of freezing! bball piping, collectors, heat exchangers and other devices in the circuit must be subjected to proper hydraulic seal testing. bbthe choice of system components and the method of their installation are left up to the installer. Installers must use their expertise to ensure proper installation and functioning in compliance with all applicable legislation. The lower the temperature of the heating return (<40 C), the greater the efficiency of the solar heating system. bbmake sure that all components chosen for use with the system are able to withstand the thermal load involved. In the summer months, when the solar heating system is not used for the central heating, steam can form inside the collectors, and temperatures can exceed 120 C even near the combination storage cylinder. bbthe size of the combination storage cylinder must be chosen to suit the solar heating system. It must be big enough to store excess heat after the DHW production coil has been heated without being too big. bbinsulate the pipes from the inertial storage cylinder to avoid heat loss. 13

17 3.7 Preparing for initial start-up b The DHW production coil must be filled and pressurised before the inertial storage cylinder is filled. It is essential to perform the following checks before starting up or testing the functioning of the combination storage cylinder. In particular, check that: The supply cocks are all open in the domestic water circuit. The water connections to the boiler and solar heating system have been made correctly. The solar heating circuit has been correctly flushed out and filled with water-glycol mix, and all air has been bled out of the circuit. 3.8 Initial start-up Heat is only transferred from the solar heating circuit to the combination storage cylinder when the temperature of the solar collectors exceeds that in the combination storage cylinder. It is therefore temperature differential rather than absolute temperature that is important in controlling solar water heating systems. Set the required temperature differential between the collector and combination storage cylinder (see the instruction manual for the controller). Start up the boiler to provide auxiliary heating for the combination storage cylinder. 3.9 Checks during and after initial start-up 17 Once the system has been started up, perform the following checks: Solar heating circuit Check that the flow rate in the solar heating circuit is equivalent to 30 l/h for each m 2 of collector area - - Check that the solar heating circuit has been properly bled

18 INSTALLATION MANUAL Check that the cold pressure of the system is approximately 3 bar Check that the safety valve operates at 6 bar Check that all pipes in the water circuit have been insulated in conformity to relevant standards. Heating circuit Check that the heating circuit has been properly bled Provided all the above checks have been completed successfully, re-start the boiler connected to the storage cylinder and check the temperature settings and domestic hot water draw rate Preparing for extended periods of disuse If the combination storage cylinder is not going to be used for an extended period of time, prepare it for shut-down as follows: Shut down the boiler as instructed in its own manual Turn the system s main power switch OFF Drain the solar water circuit Close the fuel cock and heating water cock. bbdrain the domestic hot water (and central heating) circuit if there is any risk of freezing. Contact your local Technical Assistance Centre if you encounter any problems in completing the above procedure.
